The snow-red wall of the Forbidden City is so beautiful and shocking. What paint is used for such a beautiful wall of the Forbidden City?

0 1. It snows in the Forbidden City, and the snow-red walls are breathtaking. 165438+1October 2 1 Beijing ushered in the first snow, of which the snow in the Forbidden City was the biggest, and then many people photographed it and uploaded it online. Soon? Snow in the Forbidden City? I boarded the hot search.

The annual snow scene of the Forbidden City can be said to be a major attraction. I, a person who has never been to the Forbidden City and seen its snow scene with my own eyes, was shocked to see those photos on the Internet. The snow-red wall really surprised me. I don't know how to say a compliment, but I can only say something bad.

The red wall of the Forbidden City is made of cinnabar, and now it is repaired with brick red latex paint. The Forbidden City was built in Yongle four years in Ming Dynasty. The main material of the red wall of the Forbidden City is cinnabar, and some places are now called cinnabar and cotton sand. It is a mineral raw material. In ancient times, we began to use cinnabar, but most of the time it was used for alchemy, which is an important material for alchemy.

Later, when the Forbidden City was built, cinnabar was used, because our culture likes red very much, and red stands for celebration, which is a good thing. In ancient times, some aristocratic families had scarlet doors. What about Du Fu's? The wine and meat in Zhumen stink, and the road has frozen bones. ?

The Forbidden City is the place where the emperor lived, so this row of faces can't be small, so the walls of the Forbidden City are made of cinnabar and other materials. However, with the sun, rain and human factors, many red layers of the red wall of the Forbidden City have fallen off.

In the face of such a situation, it is natural to repair it. However, it is said that the material used for restoration is no longer cinnabar, but brick-red latex paint is chosen as the coating. Latex paint is an organic coating, which has the advantages of obvious and rapid drying, water resistance and smooth appearance. The Forbidden City is a meaningful cultural relic building. I hope we can take good care of it, and I personally hope to go there to witness its snow scene.
