Although the Imperial Garden is not as big as I imagined, but walking in the inside, you feel is hundreds of years ago Emperor Imperial concubine attendants loitering playful scene, really have back to the ancient feeling. Touch the old stones, close your eyes and feel like you're going through.  The Palace Museum's artifacts are not many, the most important artifacts are these buildings, but it is these are worn out of the damaged floor tiles, grinding like bronze mirror, the stone railings have been worn out, reflecting the history of the thick sense, as if the palace guards walked from the side of the feeling. There is an old saying called "Seeing is Believing", which is true. Sometimes travel is not to say how happy to play, in fact, can really come to the historical heritage, can really feel the connotation and appeal of historical culture.
