Whether true or not, public enthusiasm was intense on Sunday afternoon when the museum unexpectedly announced an extremely rare two nights of visits－from 6:30 to 8:00 pm on Tuesday and Wednesday－to parts of the outer walls at no cost to ticket holders.
With one exception for a special exhibit in 2015, the Forbidden City had never opened its gates to the public at night since becoming a museum in 1925.
