Three hundred classic photographic works from more than 40 internationally renowned photographers will be exhibited at Tai He Dian Square and Jian Ting Square in the Forbidden City this Friday, to mark China's National Day.
The one-month exhibition is the first time such a large-scale photograph exhibition has been held in China, reported China Radio International.
The photographers will also be allowed to shoot the Forbidden City from any angle for three days based on the theme "Impressions of the Forbidden City".
Their works will be exhibited next year during the 80th anniversary of the foundation of Forbidden City as a museum and opened to the public.
