The Imperial Palace of China's Last Emperor
Howdy
Emperor Puyi (溥仪) was the last emperor of China and final ruler of the Qing Dynasty.

Puyi became the emperor at less than 3 years of age and was titled the Xuantong Emperor in 1908. Due to him taking on the responsibilities and lifestyle of an emperor at such a young age, he turned into this sadistic little boy that loved to see his eunuchs tortured for any small transgressions.
However, he was abdicated in 1912 by the Xinhai Revolution which overthrew the Qing dynasty and turned the country into the Republic of China.
In 1932, the Japanese invaded northern China (Manchuria) and set up a puppet state called Manchukuo until the end of the Sino-Japanese War in 1945. To add legitimacy to the puppet state, they appointed Puyi as the Chief Executive of Manchukuo. The palace was constructed for him in the city of Changchun in Jilin province. Once the People's Republic of China was established in 1949, Puyi was imprisoned for being a war criminal.

I took a trip to this city and was able to get some great shots of the palace that he lived in while in power of this puppet state set up by the Japanese.

Good-looking vlog bro.
The palace is weird though cause I always imagine Chinese palaces to be filled with epic sculptures,weapons and stuff like that(I like old China history).
So there was communism after the imprisonment of Puyi?
Yeah it doesn't have much of a Chinese vibe to it but it was built by the Japanese.
Before the imprisonment of Puyi.

Thanks for the tour. The different camera angles for sure made it more entertaining...it felt as if I were on a waterslide. Thank you for the upload and I found it to be both informative and entertaining. Enjoy and have a great day.
Great comment. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for the show around. I was wondering why you had a suitcase and going into a museum lol - visiting the area. 😉

Exactly, I visited this place before checking into my hotel. Fortunately, there was a place for me to store my suitcase while I explored the palace.
Thanks for watching.
I dont know why, but I always was under the impression that China was usually hot...who knew. Cool vid.
China's a big country. The south is usually hot. The north borders Russia and gets damn cold during the winter.
I wonder if the Dynasty continued @kenanqhd I think this world will be in some different setting.
Yes. China would be a very different place. It's hard to imagine what it would look like. What do you think would be different @cryptopie?
