How big is the forbidden city & why was it built

                The Forbidden City is not a very big city but has a lot of meaning. The forbidden city is about 3,350ft  by 2,526ft, not neccessaraly the biggest city in the world. The forbidden city is sorounded by a moat and a big gate I will talk about this later in the blog. Anyway the forbidden city was built for chinese emporers. there the emporers lived a life in luxury, the forbidden city is a royal city that was forbidden to most of the emporers subject. the forbidden city was built in the ming dynasty in the 15th century and was home to 14 emporers of  the ming dyansty and 10 of the qing dynasty.
