A large number of ancient treasures are waiting for you! Thanks to new technology, a virtual tour of the Forbidden City will be available online by 2008. The project---jointly driven by the Palace Museum and computer company IBM--aims to help teenagers around the world become more interested in Chinese culture.

That's very cool. I will look for the virtual tour in 2008. Maybe my family can go visit in person when we go to Tai Pai to visit my husband's relatives. Thanks for the heads up!

There are many rooms closed for protection, but the virtual platform breaks the boundaries of time and space, meaning visitors can see whatever they want!

How can you say your English is not so good? You're very poetic. I can't wait then, until it comes out and will definitely visit this secret, virtual world.

Thanks. i'd like to tell you more about the coming virual tour online. It's said that the project will offer an interactive, three dimentional view of the palace. The virtual tour will provide images from all over the 720,000-square-meetre palace.
If you don't mind, i hope you can help improve my english, especially my spoken english. Many thanks!

hi, i am a chinese, but i never have a chance to visit forbidden. what a pity! no matter what you want to do, you need money and time. though i have enough free time, but without money i can do nothing. though olympic game is coming, but i dont feel excited as other people, because i know that i have no chance to Beijing in 2008.
i think you must be in beijing, you are so luck.

it's really pity. Since you have the strong desire to visit Beijing, you will realize your dream in time!
