They have rich life experiences, and it is intoxicating to integrate these feelings into their songs. There are also some famous bars such as Hutong freehand brushwork and Jiading Square.

Outside the water cube, it seems that countless water droplets of different sizes are compressed together to form this building. If you take pictures at night, you can really take big pictures. Besides watching the light show outside, you can also visit the inside of the Water Cube. The scenery inside the water cube is also good, which is basically a white and blue structure. When you visit the Water Cube, you have a feeling of roaming the Crystal Palace. The scenery at night is more beautiful!

My advice

1. Shichahai has hutongs with old Beijing characteristics. The most famous hutong is Xie Jie, Dai Yan. There are small shops selling things on both sides. It is also close to Di 'anmen Drum Tower, so you can browse together. At the same time, there is a silver-topped bridge on the river, and you can row at your own expense.

2. Shichahai is more convenient by bus and far from the subway.

Shichahai is most suitable for winter nights, and the cool colors look good.

4. There are several small shops in Nanluoguxiang with Beijing characteristics, such as "Miss Dong's Shop" and "One Flower and One Fruit". The shops with unique personality are called "local consciousness" and "reliable children".

5. Hutong around Nanluoguxiang is a residential area. When playing, be careful not to walk into people's yards, which will not disturb people's lives.

6, travel as green as possible, Beijing's transportation is very convenient, it is best to take the subway and bus.

7. Visiting the Water Cube requires security check and try to carry light luggage. It is recommended to bring swimsuits, towels, slippers, toiletries, etc. When you go swimming, you should go to the Water Cube Amusement Park, which is more expensive.

Some pictures come from the internet.

What are the scenic spots in the Forbidden City in Beijing?

The scenic spots are as follows:

1, Hall of Supreme Harmony. Commonly known as the "Golden Hall", it is the place where the emperor held a grand ceremony. The Hall of Supreme Harmony is 5 rooms wide 1 1, with a building area of 2,377 square meters and a height of 26.92 meters. Together with the base height of 35.05 meters, it is the largest hall in the Forbidden City.

2. Royal Garden. The Imperial Garden is located on the central axis of the Forbidden City, behind the Palace of Kunning. In the Ming dynasty, it was called "the back garden of the palace", and in the Qing dynasty it was called the imperial garden. It was built in the 18th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1420), and has been revised continuously since then, and still retains the basic pattern when it was first built. The park is 80 meters north and south, east and west 140 meters, and covers an area of 12000_. The pine, cypress, bamboo and stone in the park constitute an evergreen garden landscape.

3. Yangxintang. It was built in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty (1mid-6th century) and has been used as the emperor's convenience hall. As the main residence and daily administrative place of the emperor, it became the actual bedroom of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. The most famous hall of mental cultivation is Yong Zhengdi's "Qin Qin Xian" room, the Sanxitang of Emperor Qianlong, and the Auditorium of Dongnuange in the late Qing Dynasty.

4. Chenggong Palace. One of the six palaces in the East Palace of the Forbidden City. In the 18th year of Yongle in Ming Dynasty (1420), it was built, formerly known as Yongning Palace. There are two courtyards in the palace and five main halls in the backyard, with open doors. This palace was occupied by the imperial concubine in the Ming Dynasty. Empresses lived in Qing Dynasty, and Dong Eshi, the imperial concubine of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty, and Quancheng, the Empress Dowager Daoguang, once lived here.

5. the palace. As the main building of Ningshou Palace, it was built in the 28th year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty (1689) and was originally named Ningshou Palace. The inner court is located in the front of the central axis of Ningshou Palace, and it is arranged on a single stone platform with the back hall Ningshou Palace. The temple seat faces south, with 9 rooms wide and 5 rooms deep, which is based on the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

Introduction of tourist routes and scenic spots in the Forbidden City

Enter from Tiananmen Square, come to the end gate, pass through the end gate, and come to the meridian gate.

The meridian gate is concave, which means that all rivers flow into the sea. Therefore, when the emperor issued the imperial edict or received the victory of the army to "offer prisoners", it was all at the meridian gate to show royal majesty, and the minister who was "killed with a stick" was also at the meridian gate (the beheading at the meridian gate was a misinformation that the minister was killed with a stick).

Now the Wumen Gate is the ticket gate of the Palace Museum, which leads to the Palace Museum.

On the east side of the Wumen Gate is the ancestral hall (now renamed the Working People's Cultural Palace), and on the west side is the social altar (now renamed Zhongshan Park). These two places can be accessed from the east and west sides in front of the noon gate, so they do not belong to the Palace Museum and need to purchase tickets separately.

Ancestral temples were places where ancestors were sacrificed in Ming and Qing Dynasties, and national altars were places where land gods (clubs) and valley gods (millet) were sacrificed. Now both places have basically become leisure parks, with many ancient tree relics. It is worth mentioning that in Sun Yat-sen Park, you can see the national altar composed of five-color soil, each of which represents a different place in Kyushu and symbolizes the land of the world. You can also see statues and monuments related to Dr. Sun Yat-sen.

Entering the museum from the noon gate is the Taihe Gate. The meridian gate has three doors from the front and five doors from the back (that is, from the front of Taihe Gate). Known as "Sanming and Five Darkness". Now the two secret doors seem to be places for luggage and staff to rest. You can climb the wall from behind the meridian gate, or you can go around the Forbidden City from the meridian gate to the Shenwu gate (if it is fully open).

Entering the Taihe Gate, there are the famous huge Hall of Supreme Harmony Square and the central buildings of the Forbidden City: Hall of Supreme Harmony, Hall of Zhonghe and Hall of Baohe. They are located on a platform surrounded by three layers of white marble railings, symbolizing the supremacy of imperial power through the image of lotus platform in Buddhism. The faucet on the white marble railing is both a decoration and a drain. When it rains, water will come out of the dragon's mouth.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony is commonly known as the Golden Throne Hall, but the Hall of Supreme Harmony and the Hall of Supreme Harmony Square will only be used in large-scale celebrations, and it is not a place where civil and military officials go to court every day.

Behind the Baohe Hall (the end of the three halls) is Tianjie, and Tianjie and the middle Gan Qing Gate (on the central axis) are the dividing lines between the outer court and the inner court. The foreign court is the country and the imperial court is the home. After Ganqingmen, officials of civil and military affairs are not allowed to enter the imperial palace, and people in the harem before Ganqingmen are not allowed to break into the outer court. Wenwu Baiguan listened to politics in the open-air street in front of Gan Qing, aiming at listening to state affairs.

Three main halls (Hall of Supreme Harmony, Hall of Zhonghe and Hall of Baohe)

On the west side of Tianjie is the military department, which was established by Yongzheng. As an organization trusted by the emperor, only imperial envoys can cross the threshold of the military department.

Behind the Gan Qing Gate are three palaces of the Forbidden City: Gan Qing Palace, Jiaotai Palace and Kunning Palace. Gan Qing Palace is the residence of the emperor, and Kunning Palace is the residence of the queen. The Jiaotai Hall in the middle means Gankun Jiaotai, and it is also the first palace with a phoenix pattern painted on its central axis.

On the east and west sides of the Three Palaces are the East, West and Sixth Palaces respectively, and in front of them are hall of mental cultivation and Zhai Palace. The arrangement of the six palaces is like Kun Gua in the Eight Diagrams, symbolizing women. The six palaces of East and West are the residences of ancient concubines. Today, some of these twelve palaces have become exhibition areas for cultural relics and Chinese and foreign cultures, while others are not open.

The last three palaces (Gan Qing Palace, Jiaotai Palace and Kunning Palace)

In front of the West Sixth Palace is hall of mental cultivation, which is the residence of Yongzheng and his later emperors (the emperor before Yongzheng lived in Gan Qing Palace, and hall of mental cultivation was a warehouse and craft workshop). To the west of the main hall of hall of mental cultivation is the famous Sanxi Hall, which means "virtue, virtue and bliss". In front of the East Sixth Palace is Zhai Palace.

Behind the Kunning Palace is the Kunning Gate, and behind it is the Royal Garden. There are many rockeries, pavilions and ancient trees in the garden, but tourists are not allowed to climb or drill holes in the rockeries. Behind the garden are Qin 'anmen and Qin 'an Hall, which are unique in shape and dedicated to Emperor Xuanwu representing the north.

Then the Shenwumen, the last emperor escaped from the palace gate of the Forbidden City and the exit of the Palace Museum.

Opposite Shenwumen Road is Jingshan, and to the west of Jingshan is Beihai Park. They are all separate scenic spots and need to buy tickets separately.

Before leaving Shenwumen, you can also go up the city wall, bypass the meridian gate, or get off at Donghuamen halfway.

The west axis can be accessed from the west side of Taihe Gate. In front is the Furniture Pavilion, which displays all kinds of exquisite furniture, and behind it is the Wuying Pavilion, which used to be the place where royal books were printed. On the west side of the main hall of Wuying Hall is Yude Hall, which is a rare European (actually Turkish) architectural bathhouse (controversial). There is a lot of controversy about its use.

There is 18 locust tree behind Wuying Hall, and there is an ice room behind it, which is used to store the ice cubes dug by Jinshui River and Beijing, used in winter and refrigerated in summer. Now it has become a tourist service area, a place for drinking tea and shopping.

Behind the ice room is the Cining Palace area, including the Imperial Garden of Cining Palace, the main hall of Cining Palace and Shoukang Palace. It is the place where Empresses and Toffees of past dynasties lived, worshipped Buddha and lived. At present, taking Empress Dowager Chongwen, the mother of Emperor Qianlong, as an example, this paper introduces the happy life of Empress Dowager Cixi in her later years in the form of unit exhibition. In addition, the Buddhist temple in the Imperial Garden (Cining Palace) is also very beautiful.

The east line can also be accessed from the east side of Taihe Gate. On the east side of the three main halls are Wenhua Hall and Wenyuan Pavilion, where the Cabinet is located. Unfortunately, neither of these two palaces has been developed.

Behind the East Road is the Arrow Pavilion, which displays the armor and weapons of emperors of past dynasties. Behind the Arrow Pavilion are Fengxian Hall (Bell Hall) and Ningshou Palace District (Treasure Hall). Tickets for these two scenic spots need to be purchased separately.

Fengxian Temple is near the northwest end, similar to the ancestral hall, and it is a place to pray for ancestors. The clock hall should be exhibited in Fengxian Hall, but when I visited it, it was exhibited in the small hall in front of Fengxian Hall. The clocks and watches presented by various countries to the Qing court are exhibited in the Clock Hall. They are very exquisite, magical and ingenious, and worth seeing.

Zhong, the writer of the Palace Museum (Fengxian Hall), will automatically write down specific words on paper when telling the time.

To the southeast of Ningshou Palace District, treasures of various countries and cultural relics of the Forbidden City are displayed. The palaces in the palace area include the Imperial Palace, Ningshou Palace, Yihexuan, hall of mental cultivation, Stage and Yueshi Building.

The famous Nine Dragon Wall is in front of the Forbidden City. Zhen Fei Jing is at the end of the palace.

Ningshou Palace is the place where Qianlong was ready to abdicate when he became the emperor's father. However, due to his lust for power, in the first few years of Jiaqing's accession to the throne, he was still an actual political manipulator and actually did not live in Ningshou Palace. However, Cixi later lived for a while.

Ningshou Palace mainly highlights the elegance of "self-cultivation, harmony and tranquility". The third-floor stage is located in the east of hall of mental cultivation, and there are plaques and couplets on the third floor, which is very magnificent. People can sit on the north side of the stage and watch Lou Guan Opera. The stage is also a rare building facing north in the Forbidden City.

Come out from the back of the palace area and go west to Shenwumen.

For a more detailed introduction of the turret, imperial road, lion, water tank, doornail, god beast and palace history, you can see the documentary "Forbidden City 100".
