World’s Most Visited Palaces and Castles

全球十大最受欢迎的宫殿和城堡

No.1 The Forbidden City (Palace Museum),Beijing

Annual Visitors:15,340,000

Each day,tens of thousands of visitors pour through the Forbidden City to see the 178-acre walled compound that once shielded the Imperial Palace from public view-while housing Chinese emperors and their extensive entourages.(To handle the volume,the government has started requiring advance ticket sales during festivals and holidays and prohibiting annual ticket holders from visiting during peak seasons.)

Bright red buildings topped with golden pagodas exemplify traditional Chinese architecture,while the Palace Museum showcases art,furniture and calligraphy.

第一名：北京紫禁城（又名故宫博物院）

年游客量:15,340,000

为一睹紫禁城风采，每天都有成千上万的游客蜂拥至此。故宫建筑群占地面积达178英亩（约合72万平方米），外有宫墙围绕，将皇宫隔离于公众视野，宫内居住的是旧时中国皇帝及其随从人员。(为了控制游客数量，政府已开始实行节假日发行预售票，旅游旺季禁止使用年票。)

大红色建筑配以金顶飞檐，将中国传统风格演绎的淋漓尽致。故宫博物院还陈列有艺术品、家具和书法作品等。
