In awe, I stand before the gates,
The Forbidden City, towering, great.
A world of secrets, hidden in plain sight,
An ancient wonder, a marvel of might.
The courtyards echo with a thousand years,
Of emperors, concubines, and their fears.
Palaces, pavilions, and halls of gold,
A wonderland of history to behold.
Each step, a journey back in time,
As I wander through these halls sublime.
A world of wonders, a mystery to unveil,
The Forbidden City, a tale to tell.
A journey further, a wall to climb,
The Great Wall, standing tall in its prime.
A marvel of engineering, a sight to see,
Stretching as far as the eye can be.
The wind whispers tales of battles fought,
As I stand on this ancient fort.
A symbol of strength, a testament to will,
The Great Wall, standing strong still.
I gaze upon the landscape vast,
A world of wonders, that seems to last.
The beauty, the grandeur, it all unfolds,
As stories of the past, these tales are told.
The sun sets, casting shadows deep,
As I leave, with memories to keep.
The Forbidden City, The Great Wall,
A journey to remember, for one and all.
