Tiananmen Square is located in the center of Beijing, China, at the southern end of the Forbidden City, across Chang'an Avenue from Tiananmen Square. It was the main gate of Beijing's imperial city during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The designer was Kuai Xiang, a royal architect from the Ming Dynasty. Tiananmen was built in the 15th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1417), and was called Chengtianmen at that time. In the eighth year of Shunzhi (1651) of the Qing Dynasty, it was renamed Tiananmen Square. On October 10, 1925, the National Palace Museum of the Republic of China was established and Tiananmen Square was opened to the public. On October 1, 1949, the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China was held here, which was designed into the national emblem and became one of the symbols of the People's Republic of China. In 1961, Tiananmen Square was announced by the State Council of the People's Republic of China as one of the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units.
