It is the world’s largest palace and has over 17 million visitors every year. But if we traveled back to the past, we probably wouldn’t be allowed inside. In the past, all buildings in Beijing were low except for the Forbidden City. From outside, ordinary people could only imagine what it looked like inside. The Forbidden City takes up 720,000 square meters in the heart of Beijing. It was built (被建造) from 1406 to 1420 by the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty (明朝), the Yongle Emperor. After that, it was the living and working place of 14 emperors of the Ming Dynasty and 10 emperors of the Qing Dynasty. During those times, the Forbidden City was where the country’s supreme power could be found. Emperors were born, lived, fought and died there. It saw the highs and lows of the Ming and Qing dynasties, as well as the end of feudal autocratic monarchy (封建君主专制) in China. The cultural relics (遗产) and documents in the palace show how the royal families lived. They are still used today for historical research, as well as inspiration (灵感) for literature and entertainment. In 1987, the Forbidden City was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site (世界文化遗产). For world leaders who visit China, it has become a must - see. 阅读以上材料，根据其内容回答其后各个小题。 (     )61.. The Forbidden City has over ______ million visitors every year.
