We finally got a nice breakfast this morning: omelets, fresh fruit, fresh breads and good coffee. Then off to the royal palace – the Forbidden City. It’s not nearly as old as the Beijing’s. It was built at the beginning of the 19th century, and much of it was destroyed in the 60s during the war. It’s still quite impressive and beautiful with all its decay. It’s big too – 6 square kilometers. Pictures describe it better. It’s as big as my home city, Villa Park. The morning sun and heat are brutal.
