Must see while in Beijing to witness the depth of planning and engineering that goes behind building a place for the emperor who needs to be protected and to have longevity of life for him.Full review by mahi1852

Hi everyone. As I know, We must buy forbidden city 's ticket before 8 days but I cannot book it at official website. It always show that ticket is sold old even I waited to 00:00 A.M for booking. Have any ways to book it easier even a little more expensive. Thank you so much for reading
A:
The Forbidden City can usually be booked through a travel agent. It might be a bit more expensive but would allow convenient access.
Hieveryone. As a foreigner, do I have to book before visiting the place? And if I book on the official website, can I pay with a non-chinese credit card? Thank you very much!
A:
There is no need to book in advance, how long it takes to get in depends on the season.
Are there any restaurants in forbidden city? or can we re-enter after having lunch outside?
A:
As I recall the only refreshments were in the Tea shop where you can sample the teas before buying, but beware, if you buy any tea. It’s incredibly expensive.
