Introduction:
"Numerous volumes have been written to discuss and introduce the Imperial Palace; each has expressed its strong points of view. However, The Grand Forbidden City: The Imperial Axis is a book written with an axis of history, culture and architecture, in a language complemented by architectural diagrams. This publication can be described as a creative work opening up a fresh outlook."
