It houses the Palace Museum, and was the former Chinese imperial palace from the Ming dynasty (since the Yongle Emperor) to the end of the Qing dynasty (since the Shunzhi Emperor) (the years 1420 to 1912). The Forbidden City served as the home of Chinese emperors and their households and was the ceremonial and political center of the Chinese government for almost 500 years.
