The largest imperial palace in the world, how much of Beijing's Forbidden City is still "forbidden" (i.e. inaccessible)?

Stretching across 7.75 million square feet, the Forbidden City is considered the largest palace in the world – over 9 times bigger than Buckingham Palace! The palace is comprised of 8,728 rooms, 980 buildings, and 90 quarters and courtyards. Visitors only have access to 60 percent of the site – leaving an incredible 40 percent that remains "forbidden."
