Jumping in the Forbidden City

Beijing, China


The Forbidden City is at the very heart of the Chinese capital. It was the Chinese imperial palace from the Ming Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty and it is HUGE ! It consists of 980 buildings with 8,707 bays of rooms and covers 720,000 m²!

But it can get a bit boring as, after a few minutes walking around, all buildings quickly look the same. This is when being with an awesome gang with Petulia, JP and Sylvain can turn a boring visit into the greatest fun. The "mot d'ordre" was : let's make some stupid pictures !! And so we did. And many ! All of them are not jumping pics, so I cannot show them all here, for the sake of that album :-)

That hommage to the Beatles below, had us getting quite some attraction from the locals.
