Imperial City

The Gate of Divine Might or Gate of Divine Prowess is the northern gate of the Forbidden City in Beijing, China.

神武门是故宫的后门，这是一个承载了很多中国历史的地方。明朝末代皇帝崇祯就是从这里逃离皇宫，在对面的景山上，自缢身亡的。清朝末代皇帝溥仪，则是从这里被冯玉祥将军赶出故宫，从而终结了他小朝廷的生活。

角楼则是故宫建筑群极具特点的建筑，坐落在故宫的四个城角之处。故宫角楼下就是故宫护城河，河中的倒影与角楼交相呼应，成为一道靓丽的风景线。

Corner towers on the four coigns of lofty walls of the Forbidden City were established in 1420, rebuilt in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). As one part of the Forbidden City, they served as the defense facility just as the lofty walls, the gate towers and the moat. The corner towers rest on the base with Buddist-style building surrounded with stone columns.
