Palace Museum: arrive at the entrance, not the exit
A Palace Museum visit starts with choosing the right arrival point, not just the attraction name.
From the Beijing guide
An entrance is not an exit.
Walk to Meridian Gate / 午门.
Before you set off
Save the entrance name before choosing your transport drop-off. Check the museum’s current admission notice separately.
