Roofs are built with yellow glazed tiles; decorations in the palace are painted yellow; even the bricks on the ground are made yellow in special process. However, there is one exception. Wenyuange, the royal library, has a black roof. Because it was believed black represented water in the ancient China which could extinguish fire.
Then you have the chance to visit the Temple of Heaven,

the gate of the Imperial Vault of Heaven. If you speak facing the Vault
while standing on the first stone, you will hear one echo. Standing on
