Summary |
Tucked away in the Forbidden City's north-east corner in Beijing lies a unique group of buildings that had lain unused for more than two hundred years. This exquisite Forbidden City in miniature, the Qianlong Garden, was built as a retirement complex for the Qing dynasty's Qianlong Emperor. The restoration of the Lodge of Retirement is the first-ever international collaboration for the Palace Museum. (From the UK, in English and Mandarin, English subtitles) (Masterpiece) (Documentary) |
