[quote=GUEST24144,657052]I visited the Forbidden City in 2008 and met a gentleman who was introduced to me as the nephew of the last emperor. He did very fine calligraphy, so I had a wall hanging piece done with my surname and the date, and I had a photo taken with the man. I had no way to know if he was actually the nephew, but that did not really matter to me either way. What I purchased was a beautiful work of art that was scribed in the Forbidden City during my visit that still hangs on the wall in my home today. When I look at it I have fond memories of my visits to Beijing and other parts of China. Regardless of the political differences between the US and China, I find the rich culture and long history to be very interesting.[/quote]
