Far from foreboding in the Forbidden City


Armed with an ample supply of toot paper for His Lordship and Yours Truly, we started the day sightseeing on foot...first Tiananmen Square and then onto the Forbidden City. Naturally, a loo stop was required (always thinking of the Bog Blog) - a necessary break between both attractions. Our marvellous guide Eric knew of a fantastic loo which was clean and devoid of crowds...just after you enter the Forbidden City through the main gate; the loo is a few metres away, tucked off to the right nestled in a pretty garden space and hidden from view by a towering wall. It was rather fab too...no need to look for a chain to pull or a button to push...it flushed automatically once you stepped away...
