Ming Palace Ruins

The Ming Palace, also known as the Forbidden City of Nanjing, flanks the Zhongshan  East Road on the south and north. Covering an  area of over one million square meters, it is considered the blueprint for the Imperial Palace in  Beijing. It was the largest palace in the world in  the Middle Ages (476-1453).  

After experiencing three catastrophes, the  Ming Palace was reduced to broken walls. The  present-day Wuchaomen Park and Ming Palace  Park only contain a very small area of ruins, but  the original magnificient scale of the palace can  still be imagined.

Chaotian Palace (Nanjing Municipal Museum)

Chaotian Palace was the place where the  emperors worshipped in the Ming Dynasty. It is  also the best preserved ancient building complex  of the Ming and Qing dynasties in south of the  Yangtze River. It is located southwest of Xinjiekou, the center of Nanjing.

The name “Chaotian  Palace” was conferred on them by Emperor  Taizu of the Ming, meaning “worshipping Heaven”. The existing buildings were rebuilt in the  5th Tongzhi year (1866) of the Qing Dynasty.  The history and culture of Nanjing as an ancient  capital has been going on continually ages ago  from pre-2,500-year-old Yecheng, to the site of  worshiping the emperors in the Ming Dynasty,  the Confucius Temple of the Qing Dynasty,  Jiangning Imperial College, and to today’s Nanjing Museum.
