Behind the Forbidden City there is a park built on a man-made hill.  This hill was built with all of the dirt that came from the Forbidden City during its construction.

From the top of the hill, you get a broad view of all of the buildings in the Forbidden City.  It was a little foggy while we were there, but it was still quite an impressive view.
