Meridian Gate: Skip-the-Line Entry & Forbidden City Grand Views
★5.0(7474)
Enter the Forbidden City through this massive U-shaped portal. Most people just walk through, but you should climb the ramparts for a top-down view of the palace's golden roofs. It takes about 20 minutes to clear the initial security bottleneck. Since tickets sell out weeks ahead, booking a private walking tour or mini-group discovery is the only way to guarantee a spot. Wear comfortable shoes; you're walking five miles today minimum.
