B Correct answer
Explanation

The Forbidden City is the imperial palace complex in Beijing, China. 'Peking' is simply the older Romanization of Beijing - they refer to the same city. The term 'Forbidden City' refers to the palace itself where only the emperor and his court could enter for nearly 500 years, not the entire city of Beijing/Peking.
