The Forbidden City is the greatest symbol of Chinese culture: its group of palaces, their symbolism, their halo of secrecy and inaccessibility, as well as the word "forbidden" itself, evoke a sense of respect, deference and admiration. The Forbidden City represents the magnificence of a thousand-year-old culture which, throughout the centuries, has generated an ancestral wisdom and a deep, eternal knowledge.
