Chileans visit 'Forbidden City' in Santiago

In the past few months, a replica Forbidden City has taken shape at the foot of Andes.

The cultural center of the Chilean presidential palace in Santiago has been dressed up in red since Sept 2 to host national treasures from the Palace Museum in Beijing.

About 120 cultural relics from the museum, also known as the Forbidden City, illustrate two themes - the emperors' dignity and empresses' secret chambers.
