You will exit Forbidden City through the northern Gate of Devine Prowess. Originally called Black Tortoise Gate, Shénwǔmén was the main portal for palace servants. As you walk along Jingshan Front Street, you will remember the splendor you saw at the Imperial Museum while regretting you only experienced a fraction of the complex. Now look back and savor one last look at the Forbidden City as a Corner Tower (Jiao lou) becomes a silhouette in the setting sun. This is one travel day you will never forget.
