The "Forbidden City" exhibit featured items from the Ming and Qing dynasties, including imperial robes, crowns, and swords.
My favorite moment:
a young girl standing in front of the glass case which displayed the Emperor's Winter Crown exclaimed to her mother: "Look, mom! I'm wearing the crown! See how I'm wearing it?" She pointed to her reflection in the glass, where the red sable crown shadow-perched on her head. After that, I had to wait in line again just to bend down and wear the reflected-crown on my head, too . . .
Thank you, anonymous young one, for teaching me how to wear the crown!
