About Pequim

Pequim, capital da China há séculos, reúne palácios imperiais, templos sagrados e troços da Grande Muralha perto das suas avenidas modernas.

No coração da cidade, a Cidade Proibida estende-se por trás de muralhas vermelhão, um labirinto de salões e pátios que abrigou os imperadores das dinastias Ming e Qing. A Praça Tiananmen fica a sul, e a colina do Parque Jingshan, a norte, dá a melhor vista sobre os seus telhados dourados. O Templo do Céu, num parque onde os moradores praticam tai chi e dançam, é uma obra-prima do desenho imperial.
