Isn't it amazing that the Forbidden City escaped the rainstorm?

In the face of this rainstorm, the Forbidden City was able to escape unscathed, which really surprised many people. At least I was shocked by the performance of the Forbidden City. I didn't expect this century-old building to have such strong vitality.

We all know that the precipitation in summer is very large, because our country has a temperate monsoon climate, in summer. A large amount of warm and humid air from the sea will gradually enter the land. After entering the land, it will form precipitation when it meets cold air, so in summer, our precipitation is very large, which is also a normal phenomenon, which is a normal feature of our climate characteristics.

The precipitation in North China this time is also very heavy, and it is continuous precipitation. Because of poor drainage, some low-lying places have a lot of stagnant water. In some places, the accumulated water even reaches one or two meters, so the precipitation is very large, which leads to some road traffic problems.

Seeing this, you may have questions. Why is the rain so heavy this time, but it didn't have much impact on the Forbidden City?

In fact, I think it is because of the relatively large precipitation that it shows the unique charm of the Forbidden City. His performance really shocked the world. Let me tell you my opinion on this matter.

I don't think the unique architectural style of the Forbidden City will be greatly affected when it is hit by heavy rain. Because we all know that the Forbidden City is the place where ancient emperors lived, the architectural style of the Forbidden City is very unique. And its quality is also very good, especially if the building materials are all wood. The quality of these Woods is very good, even after hundreds of years of weathering, it has not been greatly affected.

Therefore, the building foundation of the Forbidden City is very good, because it is an ancient royal building. So he is very picky about his studies or materials. This style can only be built after reaching the standard. If the standards are not met, the emperor may punish these craftsmen. So they must strive for perfection in craftsmanship. This also made the Forbidden City unaffected by the rainstorm.

Secondly, the foundation of the Forbidden City is very solid. Because the Forbidden City was the area where the emperors of Ming and Qing Dynasties lived, the foundation of the Forbidden City building was very good, and countless skilled craftsmen showed their talents through the Forbidden City. Moreover, during the construction of the Forbidden City, unique construction techniques were used, such as tenon-mortise structure. I think this structure makes many palaces in the Forbidden City very strong. Even after the storm, it still stands.

It is precisely because of the above factors that the Forbidden City performed very well in the face of the storm. So I think this rainstorm is just a piece of cake in front of my aunt, because it has weathered for hundreds of years. So in this respect, his ability has been tested.
