Shenyang Forbidden City Travel Diary
The Forbidden City in Shenyang is actually a palace built by Qing Taizu Nurhaci and Qing Taizong Huang Taiji before the Qing Dynasty entered the customs. It is the two complete existing palace buildings in China. One of the groups. The following is a travel diary of the Shenyang Forbidden City carefully compiled by me. I hope it can help you!
Chapter 1: A travel diary of the Shenyang Forbidden City
On a sunny day, our family of four We arrived at the Shenyang Forbidden City. The Forbidden City was a royal palace built and used by Nurhaci, Emperor Taizu of the Qing Dynasty, and Huang Taiji, Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty. Shenyang Forbidden City was the foundation of the Qing Dynasty. It covers an area of ??more than 60,000 square meters and has more than a hundred ancient pavilions and buildings.
First of all, we passed through Daqing Gate and visited Xiangfeng Pavilion and Feilong Pavilion. Came to the place where the emperor went to court? Chongzheng Hall, which was built during the Huang Taiji period, is truly magnificent inside. In the middle is a gold lacquer dragon-patterned throne screen, on both sides are cloisonné enamel tripod furnaces, and in front there are two curved golden dragons. Wrapped around the golden pillar, it is truly royal luxury, elegance and style. Next, we arrived at the Phoenix Tower, which is where the emperor drank and had fun. The third floor is for viewing. It is said that the Phoenix Tower was originally the highest point in Shenyang.
Passing through the Phoenix Tower, we came to the so-called "harem" at that time. We originally thought that this place was very big and magnificent, but when we arrived, we realized that there were only five houses here, and the one in the middle was Qingning. The palace, where the queen originally lived, is spacious inside, but like the Buddhist hall, it is not as gorgeous as shown on TV, and the cooks are also inside, and there is no royal dining room. Qingning Palace is so simple! I sighed. After leaving Qingning Palace, we came to Yongfu Palace where Concubine Zhuang lived. There was a wooden cradle inside that belonged to Shunzhi when he was a child. It was very exquisite. Opposite the Yongfu Palace is the Yanqing Palace of Concubine Zhuang's sister Hai Lanzhu. The furnishings inside are the same as those of the Yongfu Palace.
After visiting the harem and walking eastward, we came to the Dazheng Hall. It was built during the period of Nurhaci, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. It was the place where the upper dynasty participated in and discussed politics. Its appearance is like an octagonal building, and the air inside It was very humid. There was a deer antler chair in the middle, a white jade magnolia flower arrangement next to it, and a small ivory-carved Luo Shen Fu screen, all of which were very valuable. In front of the Dazheng Hall are the Ten King Pavilions, namely the Zuowangyi Pavilion, the Right Kingyi Pavilion, the Xiangqi Huangting Pavilion, the Zhengqi Huangting Pavilion, the Xiangqi Red Pavilion, the Zhengqi Red Pavilion, the Zhengqi Blue Pavilion, the Xiangqi Blue Pavilion, and the Xiangqi Pavilion. Baiting and Zhengqi Baiting.
After the visit, I couldn’t help but sigh that the Forbidden City outside the Pass is well-preserved, with unique palace buildings and precious historical relics. No wonder it is famous in China and the world. Chapter 2: Shenyang Forbidden City Travel Diary
On Sunday, I went to the Shenyang Forbidden City with my mother and grandpa. Before going to the Forbidden City, my mother told me the history of the Forbidden City, and I already had a preliminary understanding of the Forbidden City. But when I went to the Forbidden City and listened to the lecturers’ explanations, I realized that there are so many little-known stories in the Forbidden City. Now I will tell you an interesting story in the Forbidden City.
The first is the story of "Eight Characters". The most special thing about the buildings in the Forbidden City are its doors and pillars, which are wide at the bottom and narrow at the top. There are ten pavilions outside the Chongzheng Hall, five pavilions on one side, and the pavilions on both sides are arranged in a figure of eight. Why do Manchu people like eight? Because the Manchu people are indispensable for the Eight Banners, and they relied on the power of the Eight Banners to win the world.
The second story is about the origin of the word "Qing" in the Qing Dynasty. It turns out that the "Qing" in the Qing Dynasty was the "Qing", which represented the nation from the grasslands. Later, when Nurhaci was at war with the Ming Dynasty, he discovered that the "Ming" of the Ming Dynasty was the sun and the moon, which represented "fire" in the five elements, and "green" represented grass. Fire can burn grass. How could he defeat the Ming Dynasty? Where is the army? Nurhachi was very clever and added three dots of water next to the word "green", which became the Qing Dynasty. There is also the story of the three floors of the Phoenix Tower in the Forbidden City. Each floor represents a drop of water, and the third floor represents three drops of water. Water element can extinguish fire.
The third one is the story of a low palace and a high palace. Why is the Forbidden City in Shenyang so high and low? First, because they are a people on horseback. Nurhaci first fought wars and then had a family. The second reason is that the Manchu people have a habit of living on the grasslands for a long time. In order to prevent the attacks of wild beasts, they build their residences very high. After arriving at the Forbidden City, they retained this habit and built the palace on a high place and the palace on a low place. The Forbidden City in Beijing is just the opposite. Another thing is that Nurhachi sat on the Kang instead of sitting on the dragon chair when he met with the ministers.
This is what I gained from visiting the Forbidden City in Shenyang. The curtain is drawn, the story is over. Chapter 3: Shenyang Forbidden City Travel Diary
During the summer vacation, we went to the Shenyang Forbidden City.
When we entered the Forbidden City from the Daqing Gate, the first thing that caught our eyes was the Chongzheng Hall. The majestic and solemn Chongzheng Hall is the place where yellow people reviewed memorials. I seemed to see a good man who was diligent in government and loved the people. Huang was still reviewing memorials late at night, with a candle that was about to burn out next to him. After leaving Chongzheng Hall, I saw the four characters "Purple Energy Comes from the East". It turned out that this was the Phoenix Tower, where the emperor studied.
When you walk in, you will see that there are twenty-four steps below, symbolizing the twenty-four solar terms of the year. The emperor walked on it many times every day, which represented longevity.
Climb up the Phoenix Tower and look around. The majestic Forbidden City buildings are uniquely located around it. It really feels like you are condescending. After passing the Phoenix Tower, we came to the Harem, where the emperor and his concubines lived. The famous Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang once lived here. The facilities here are very simple now, but they were beyond the reach of ordinary people at that time. Pass through the Harem and come to the Dazheng Hall, which is the center of political power in the Forbidden City, where the emperor and ministers handle state affairs. There are eight windows in the Dazheng Hall, all of which should be opened when working in yellow, which represents the wind coming from all directions and the unity of all directions. Overall, the Dazheng Hall looks like a yurt, with a strong Manchu flavor.
Turn around the Dazheng Palace and come to the back garden, where pavilions, pavilions, ponds, pavilions and waterside pavilions are reflected among the green pines and cypresses, rockeries and rocks, bonsai flowerbeds, wisterias and green bamboos, all dotted here, making people feel relaxed and relaxed. Lingering. Even though I’m tired from walking, I can’t bear to leave. Stepping on the stone slabs that bear witness to history, taking advantage of the shade of century-old trees, and feeling the changes in history and the inheritance of civilization, it’s really one of the joys of life.
Forbidden City, I am proud of you! ;
