Your Passport Is the Ticket, and the Morning One Dies at Noon
Entry to the Forbidden City, booked in advance, with no guide and no transport.
The entrance fee itself is modest. What costs you is the rest: the queues at the ticket window are long, and buying on the spot means carrying Chinese cash.
Booked online, your passport becomes the ticket. You show it at the gate and walk in, at whatever hour you chose, morning or afternoon, and you go round at your own speed.
The timings are strict, so read the instructions on the stop below before you go: which gate to arrive at, and when a morning ticket stops working.

The Palace Museum
Make your own way to the Forbidden City; no transport is included. The front page of every participant's overseas passport is required, sent as an attachment. Chinese passports and ID cards cannot be used for this booking. The booking reference arrives on the day of travel. Your passport is your entry ticket: show it at the ticket check at the Meridian Gate. Timings are enforced. With a morning ticket you must be inside before 12:00; after that it has expired and you will not be let in. With an afternoon ticket you cannot enter in the morning. Allow 15 minutes to walk from the East Gate to the ticket check at the south gate. 1. Arrive at the Forbidden City EAST GATE, not any other gate. 2. Show your passport and go in at the south gate, the Meridian Gate. 3. Leave by the north gate, the Gate of Divine Prowess.
