Before the Yuanmingyuan was burned down, British photographers took precious photos. Why is it so beautiful that it can be used as a screen saver?

Lead: Yuanmingyuan is a "treasure" of Chinese culture, but after Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China, the invaders wantonly burned and looted, and a big fire burned Yuanmingyuan to ashes. It was a humiliating history and an unforgettable past. Although we don't want to look back, is it really gone?

As a royal garden, Yuanmingyuan not only has ingenious architectural design, but also covers an area of more than 5,200 mu, including nearly 150 scenic spots, with a construction area of160,000 square meters. It deserves to be described by all beautiful words, such as magnificent, magnificent beauty and brilliance.

Yuanmingyuan, also known as "Summer Palace", is magnificent, so every summer when it is hot, the nobles of the Qing court will come to Yuanmingyuan for the summer, and the emperor will take his favorite concubines with him, so that he can not only escape the summer, but also handle government affairs better. Why not? According to historical records, Yuanmingyuan is a garden given to Yong Zhengdi by Emperor Kangxi. After careful arrangement by many emperors, many skilled craftsmen were hired, and it became a beautiful Yuanmingyuan, which later became a good place for the royal nobles to spend the summer. Among them, there are precious cultural relics of the former dynasty, as well as treasures of the present dynasty, gold and silver jewelry, cultural relics and ancient calligraphy and painting. Only you can't think of it. Without it, there is nothing.

However, with so many treasures, this precious Yuanmingyuan disappeared because of the decadent social governance, fatuous managers and greedy invaders in the Qing Dynasty. It's a pity that the Yuanmingyuan was burned down. If it still exists, we can appreciate the wisdom of the ancients from the traces of history and imagine how the ancients lived through the treasures of the past.

Before the fire in Yuanmingyuan, British photographers took a group of photos of Yuanmingyuan not on fire. Through these photos, we can see the splendor, beauty, nobility and brilliance of Yuanmingyuan in those days, and many netizens call it screensaver after seeing it.

These photos record the once beautiful Yuanmingyuan, and now it has become a precious collection worth millions. By burning Yuanmingyuan, we know that a country will not be bullied unless it is strong enough, and the weak will only be invaded by the strong. In order to protect the precious national culture, we must make others fear ourselves and make ourselves have enough ability to protect everything we want to protect.
