Ming Palace, Palace in Nanjing, China
The Ming Palace, also known as the 'Forbidden City of Nanjing', was the primary imperial palace of the early Ming dynasty.
Built by Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang in the 14th Century, it served as the capital before it was moved to Beijing.
The architecture of the Ming Palace greatly influenced later palaces and gardens in China, introducing a style that became standard for centuries.
Today, only ruins remain, preserved within the Ming Palace Scenic Area, which includes a museum.
It's famous for its 'Three Main Halls' design which was replicated in Forbidden City.
