The Forbidden City celebrates 600th anniversary The Forbidden City, known today as the Palace Museum, is celebrating the 600th anniversary of the completion of the compound's construction this year. The Forbidden City in the heart of Beijing, a 720,000-square-meter palace complex made of wood and earthen bricks, is the largest surviving specimen of its kind in the world. It stands as a testimony to past glory that informs contemporary people about Chinese civilization's advanced thought and practices across six centuries. Eighteen landmark years during the six centuries of history have been chosen to highlight the exhibits in chronological order to show how the compound was born, grew and matured.
