Heritage & Imperial History

Beijing’s central axis and its surrounding districts preserve the architectural legacy of the Ming and Qing dynasties. This collection spans the world’s largest palace complex at the Forbidden City, the ceremonial expanse of Tian’anmen Square, and traditional timekeeping structures like the Bell and Drum Towers. It also features specialized spiritual sites, including the Temple of Ancient Monarchs and the Tibetan-style white stupa at Miaoying Temple, alongside the 15th-century Indian-influenced architecture of the Five Pagoda Temple.
