The Forbidden City in Beijing was been the palace of the emperors - and seat of power - of the Ming and Qing Dynasties of China for more than 500 years (1416 - 1911). The complex and the artefacts housed therein are an important showcase of Chinese civilisation in that era. It was inscribed as a UNESCO WHS in 1987 as Imperial Palace of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
The Imperial Palace of the Qing Dynasty (also known as Houjin or Shenglin Palace) in Shenyang, Liaoning province, was the royal residence of Qing emperors before the capital was moved to Beijing. It was built between 1625 - 26 and 1783. Besides telling of the history of the Qing Dynasty, it is also the holding site of Manchu cultural traditions. In 2004, it was added to the aforementioned site, and its name changed to reflect on the addition.
