Composition of the Forbidden City (tour order).

1. Visit the Forbidden City

I went to Beijing during the summer vacation.

On this day, the sun was shining brightly, and our family went to visit the Palace Museum in Beijing. The visiting route arranged by my father is to enter through Tiananmen first, and then exit through the north gate.

The Forbidden City is a large-scale ancient building with a total of 9,990 and a half rooms. It’s really amazing!

After we cross the Duanmen, we can see the Meridian Gate. The Meridian Gate is the main entrance of the Forbidden City, 35.6 meters high. After passing the Meridian Gate, I saw the Neijinshui River. The river has many twists and turns, like a jade belt, also known as the Jade Belt River. The railings on both sides of the river and the Jinshui Bridge on the river are all carved from white marble, which is gorgeous and majestic.

Then we came to the first of the "Three Main Halls" of the Forbidden City: the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Unfortunately, the entire hall was undergoing major renovations. So, we had to visit the second hall of the Forbidden City: Baohe Hall. This is the place where the emperor personally invigilated the examination. Whoever wins the first prize, second place, or third prize can ride a horse and hang a flower from here to visit Chang'an Avenue in Beijing and enjoy the most popular experience among scholars in the feudal era. of glory. The third hall of the Forbidden City: Zhonghe Hall, which is where the emperor rested.

After visiting the three main palaces, we came to the Qianqing Palace, one of the "Three Back Palaces", where the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties usually handled military and state affairs. Family banquets are held as usual on New Year's Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Winter Solstice, Wanshou and other festivals.

Jiaotai Hall is located on the Forbidden City Middle Road, behind the Qianqing Palace. In the Qing Dynasty, the Queen's birthday ceremony was held here. Twenty-five treasures representing imperial power are also stored in the Jiaotai Hall. The seal is placed in a treasure box and covered with yellow silk.

After leaving the Jiaotai Hall, we went to the Kunning Palace, which was the residence of the empresses of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. According to Manchu customs, the Qing Dynasty changed it into a place for worshiping gods, and the Dongyan Pavilion was used as the emperor’s wedding venue. bridal chamber.

My favorite place is the Imperial Garden! Why? Because there are many flowers planted in the Imperial Garden: azaleas that are as bright as the sky, charming red roses, and bright red peonies. The noble and elegant chrysanthemums, the jade-white magnolias, the fragrant jasmine... Many trees were planted around these beautiful flowers. Set off by flowers, the imperial garden adds a bit of dignity and elegance.

Afterwards, we also visited the "West Sixth Palace", "Eastern Sixth Palace", and Yangxin Hall... The ingenious architecture of the Forbidden City has been continuously rebuilt over the past five hundred years since its creation in the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. , reconstruction, the manpower and material resources used are difficult to estimate, it can be said that "the whole world can only be used by one person".

2. Tour the Forbidden City

Today is my first day in Beijing. Along the way, the tour guide told us many stories about the royal family of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Unknowingly, we arrived at the emperor’s palace, the Forbidden City, also known as the Forbidden City. The Forbidden City is a large-scale building with a total of 9999 and a half rooms. Look, isn’t it amazing!

We first visited the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the place where the emperor went to court in the morning. In the center of the Hall of Supreme Harmony is the Dragon Chair of the Supreme Lord of the Nine Dragons. The items inside are all made of gold and are extremely luxurious. When building the Hall of Supreme Harmony, no rivets were used. All are made of wood. Aren’t our ancestors very powerful!

After visiting the Hall of Supreme Harmony, we went to visit the Emperor’s palace, the Qianqing Palace. Qianqing Palace was built in 1402 and was the residence of the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties. It is said that the emperor stayed in the Qianqing Palace on the day of his wedding. On the right side of the Qianqing Palace, there are two wedding beds with "Xi" symbols all around them. Maybe if you touch this happy character, you can get the emperor's blessing! Then, we visited Kunning Palace, Yangxin Palace and other palaces. The architecture of the Forbidden City embodies the wisdom of the ancient working people, which is the crystallization of sweat!

I have benefited a lot from this magnificent Forbidden City. Forbidden City! I will definitely tell all the people about your splendor.
