DuanmenⅡ

During the time of Republic of China and People’s Republic of China, Duanmen(Southern End Main Entrance) was the storeroom of cultural antiques of Historical Museum. In 1999, Duanmen(Southern End Main Entrance) was well restored and was one of the best-preserved ancient architecture in Forbidden City. Since then it was officially opened to visitors. Currently some rare exhibitions such as Exhibition of Hundreds of Emperors and Exhibition of Calligraphy and Painting Masterpieces by Famous Artists are available. Getting up to the tower, the gardens of Ming and Qing Dynasties of Imperial Ancestral Temple and Altar of Land and Grain are easily seen. If the visitors like Chinese ancient architecture, gardens of Ming and Qing Dynasties and painting-calligraphy art, it is worthy of visiting.
