北京故宮博物院中英文介紹
故宮也稱紫禁城，位于北京市中心，500年中曾住過24個皇帝，是明清兩代的皇宮。故宮占地面積72萬平方米，共有800多座建筑，9999間房屋，是明清時代無與倫比的杰作，是中華民族文明的結晶。它是中國最大、最完整的宮殿群，是中國文化遺產寶庫。
過去的紫禁城，老百姓是不能進入的，即使是朝中高官也不得無故進入。故宮是世界建筑史上的奇跡之一。它于1420年完工，耗時14年。故宮的前半部分叫外庭，包括太和殿、中和殿、保和殿三大殿及兩邊的建筑。 外庭是皇帝處理國家事務及舉行重大慶典活動的地方。內廷由三個主要供電和東六宮、西六宮組成。內廷是皇帝處理日常事務及皇室家族居住的地方。最后一個王朝于1911年滅亡，但末代皇帝溥儀仍住在宮內。1925年，故宮改為博物館，向公眾開放。
1987年，故宮被聯合國教科文組織列為世界文化遺產。

嬪妃與太監
眾所周知，中國歷史上皇帝們都有許多嬪妃。其中最高的三個等級是皇后（第一等）、貴妃（第二等）、嬪妃（第三等）。她們并不是都有機會與皇帝同居，有的甚至一次機會也沒有。但所有的這些女人都不允許與別人結婚。
皇帝有那么多的宮女，他擔心她們中有的可能與宮中男仆發生關系。因此，宮中出現了太監，來侍候皇帝和他的嬪妃們。
譯文
Forbidden City
The Palace Museum, known as the Forbidden City, was the home to 24 Ming and Qing emperors, off-limits for 500 years. It stands in the center of Beijing, covering 720,000 square meters, owning 800 buildings and 9,999 rooms, constituting a priceless testimony to Chinese civilization during the Ming and Qing dynasties. It is the largest and most magnificent group of palaces existing in China and a treasure house of various relics. It is also perfectly maintained.
In Chinese, the Forbiddent City is called Purple Forbidden City. The Purple Forbidden City was inaccessible to the common people during the reign of the emperors. Even the highest civil and military officers could not enter it without good reason. The Forbidden City is one of the architectural wonders of the world. The construction took 14 years and was finished in 1420. The former Palace’s outer court,with its halls of Supreme Central and Preserved Harmony and side buildings, was where the emperor handled the state affairs and held grand ceremonies. The three main and six eastern and western palaces form the inner court, where the emperor dealt with daily government affairs, and where the imperial family lived. The last dynasty fell in 1911, but Emperor Puyi still lived in the inner court. In 1925,it was converted into a museum and opened to the public.
In 1987,the Palace was inscribed on the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List.

Imperial Concibines and Eunuchs
As is famous in Chinese history, the emperor always had many concubines. Besides his wife, the highest ranks of concubines were: Guifei (second to the empress), and Bin (third to the empress). Not all the concubines had the chance to sleep with the emperor. Some even had one chance at all. But all of those women were not allowed to marry others.
The emperor had so many concubines and maids, so he was afraid that some might have affairs with the male servants. For this reason, the eunch appeared to serve the emperor, the empress and the concubines.
