Volume 1 Chapter 184 Capital

After the two of them finished visiting Wangfujing and bought some things, they went back to the hotel early to rest, and they had to go to see the national flag raising early tomorrow.

If you don't see the flag-raising in the capital once, it's like a trip in vain. The time of raising and lowering the national flag in Tiananmen Square is determined according to the sunrise and sunset time of the capital, and the specific time is specially calculated by Lin Heng, an astronomer from the Capital Observatory. In the morning, when the upper edge of the sun is at the same level as the horizon seen in Tian/Anmen Square, it is the time for the flag to be raised. Depending on the date, the time when the flag will be raised and lowered will also vary. In the evening, when the sun goes down to the horizon, it is usually the time for the flag to be lowered.

From January 11 to June 6 each year, the flag-raising time is gradually advanced from 7:36 a.m. to 4:36 a.m., with an average of about one minute advance each day; from June 22 to December 30, the flag-raising time is gradually postponed from 4:46 a.m. to 7:36 a.m., with an average of 52 seconds per day; from December 31 to January 10 and from June 7 to June 21, the flag-raising time is constant at 7:36 a.m. and 4:46 p.m. each day.

Dai Xiyan checked, tomorrow's flag-raising time is about five o'clock, fortunately, this time is not very early for summer, and it is not difficult to get up.

Before dawn the next day, at more than 3 o'clock in the morning, Dai Xiyan was woken up by the alarm clock, rubbed his eyes, climbed up and went to the bathroom to wash up, and saw that Xia Ye was still lazy sleeping on the bed, Dai Xiyan patted her buttocks, and shouted in her ear for a while, and only then did she get up on a summer night rubbing her sleepy eyes.

At around 4 o'clock in the morning, Dai Xiyan and Xia Ye packed up their things and went to Tiananmen Square to watch the flag-raising ceremony and appreciate the different style of the capital!

In the past, he had only watched the flag-raising ceremony in Tiananmen Square on TV, but now, being able to witness it with his own eyes can be regarded as a wish.

When we arrived at the square on a summer night, there were already a lot of tourists gathered here, more than a billion people in China, and many enthusiastic people came to admire this style every day.

When the national flag guards came out with the bright red five-star red flag, the crowd consciously quieted down. The soldiers of the escort moved in unison, and walked from the Jinshui Bridge with their heads held high and in unison。。。。。。

Looking at the five-star red flag slowly rising, accompanied by the high sound of the national anthem, I believe that everyone present will be excited, which is like the faith in everyone's heart, solemn and sacred and cordial.

2 minutes and 07 seconds is the time when the national flag is raised, and the time when the sun slides out of the horizon.

In just two minutes, it was bought by the ancestors with blood!

。。。。。。。。

After watching the flag-raising ceremony, Xia Ye took Dai Xiyan back to the hotel and slept again, and the two of them didn't go out again until more than nine o'clock. And the next stop is the Forbidden City!

The Forbidden City is the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties in China, formerly known as the Forbidden City, located in the center of the central axis of the capital, and is the essence of ancient Chinese court architecture. It is one of the largest and most well-preserved wooden structures in the world. The Forbidden City is known as the first of the five major palaces in the world (the Forbidden City in Beijing, the Palace of Versailles in France, Buckingham Palace in the United Kingdom, the White House in the United States, and the Kremlin in Russia), and is a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction.

The Forbidden City is located in the center of the capital and is also known as the "Forbidden City". There were 24 emperors living here, and it was the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties (1368~1911 AD), and is now the "Palace Museum". The entire building of the Forbidden City is splendid and majestic, and is known as one of the five major palaces in the world (the Forbidden City in Beijing, the Palace of Versailles in France, Buckingham Palace in the United Kingdom, the White House in the United States, and the Kremlin in Russia), and has been listed as a "World Cultural Heritage" by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.

The palace building of the Forbidden City is the largest and most complete ancient building complex in China, with a total area of more than 720,000 square meters, and it is said that there are 9,999 and a half rooms in the palace room, which is called "the sea of palaces", and the spirit is magnificent and magnificent. Whether it is the flat layout, the three-dimensional effect, or the majestic form, it is an unparalleled masterpiece.

A central axis runs through the entire Forbidden City, and this central axis is on the central axis of the capital. The three major halls, the last three palaces, and the imperial garden are all located on this central axis. On both sides of the central axis palace, there are many symmetrical distribution of many palaces, all of which are magnificent and gorgeous. These palaces can be divided into two parts: the outer court and the inner court. The outer dynasty is centered on the three major halls of Taihe, Zhonghe and Baohe, and the Wenhua and Wuying halls are the two wings. The inner court is centered on the Qianqing Palace, the Jiaotai Palace, and the Kunning Palace, and the six palaces in the east and west are the two wings, and the layout is rigorous and orderly. The four corners of the Forbidden City have exquisite corner towers, which are exquisitely built and beautiful. Miyagi is surrounded by a palace wall that is 10 meters high and 3,400 meters long, and there is a moat 52 meters wide outside the wall.

Now, some palaces in the Forbidden City have set up a comprehensive history and art museum, a painting museum, a classified ceramics museum, a bronze museum, a Ming and Qing arts and crafts museum, an inscription museum, a toy hall, a study room four treasures museum, a playthings hall, a treasure hall, The clock hall and the Qing Dynasty court rules and cultural relics exhibition, etc., have a large number of ancient art treasures, according to statistics, a total of 1052653 pieces, accounting for one-sixth of the total number of cultural relics in China, is the museum with the richest collection of cultural relics in China, and is also a world-famous museum of ancient culture and art, many of which are unique priceless national treasures.

Dai Xiyan and summer night start from the noon gate, go to the Taihe Gate, go to the Hongyi Pavilion, and then go to the Taihe Palace, the Zhonghe Palace, the Baohe Palace, and enter the Qianqing Palace from the Qianqing Gate。。。。。。 There wasn't much time, and the two spent two or three hours touring and came out.

After visiting the Forbidden City, Xia Ye went to Quanjude with his endorsement.

Quanjude is a time-honored brand in China, founded in 1864 (the third year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty), and has made great progress after several generations of entrepreneurial struggle. In January 1999, "Quanjude" was recognized as a "well-known trademark" by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, which is the first well-known trademark in China in the service category.

After continuous innovation and development, Quanjude's dishes have formed a unique Quanjude roast duck as the leader, a collection of "whole duck seats" and more than 400 special dishes in one of the Quanjude cuisine, which is loved by heads of state, government officials, people from all walks of life and domestic and foreign tourists, and is known as "China's first food". Premier Zhou, the former premier of the People's Republic of China, has repeatedly selected the "all-duck banquet" of Quanjude as the state banquet.

Quanjude's dishes are basically duck-related, the two ordered a roast duck, with lotus leaf cakes, cucumber and green onion shreds and sweet noodle sauce, etc., and ordered bad duck Sanbai, duck bone milk soup, there are many dishes, but the two can't eat it, so they picked a few.

After eating, the two prepared to go to the Temple of Heaven to have a look.

Temple of Heaven - was built in the eighteenth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1420), is the place where the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties "worship the sky" and "pray for the valley", and is located on the east side of Zhengyang Gate. The north of the altar is round, and the south is square, which means "the sky is round and the place is round". The main buildings in the altar include the prayer hall, the imperial palace, the mound, the imperial dome, the palace, the beamless hall, the long corridor, the double ring longevity pavilion, etc., as well as the echo wall, the three-tone stone, the seven-star stone and other places of interest.

The Temple of Heaven has two altar walls, forming an inner and outer altar. The main building is in the inner altar, the mound altar is in the south, the prayer valley altar is in the north, and the two altars are on the same north-south axis. The "Prayer Altar" is used to pray for a good year in spring, and the central building is the New Year's Prayer Hall. "Yuanqiu Altar", specially used for the "Winter Solstice" day sacrifice day, the central building is a huge circular stone platform, named "Yuanqiu". The two altars are connected by the Danbi Bridge.

There are many ancient cypresses in the Temple of Heaven, evergreen all year round, and there are big trees outside the building complex, but because it is a place to worship the sky and pray for the valley, there are many empty places in the buildings, so it is not suitable for summer play, and the endorsement and summer night catch up with this "unsuitable period".

Circle Hill - Echo Wall - Kowloon Park - Tanbi Bridge - New Year's Prayer Hall - Out of the West Gate of the New Year's Hall to the West - Kagura Department - Sainomiya 。。。。。。

When they came out of the Temple of Heaven, it was already dark, and the two of them played under the scorching sun for a day today, and they were really a little tired, so they went back to the hotel directly, ordered a meal in the room, and took a shower after eating, and the two snuggled together and watched TV and chatted.

After resting for the night, my physical strength has recovered a lot, and today there is still a difficult task to overcome on behalf of Xi Yan and Xia Ye - "Badaling Great Wall"!

Badaling was originally a pass, and later built a closed city. Ming Longqing three years (1569) to Wanli ten years (1582) in each mouth to build barriers, and on the mountains on both sides of each mouth to build the border city, the tip wall, the horse retaining wall, etc., and then gradually increased to the Great Wall, and built the enemy tower, pier platform. It starts from the top of Sichuan grass flowers, passes through the entrance of Shifo Temple, the east entrance of Qinglong Bridge, the west exit of Qinglong Bridge, the mouth of Wangguayu, the mouth of Badaling, the mouth of Huamuliang, the mouth of Yujiachong, the mouth of Heidou Valley to Shixiayu, with a total length of about 12 kilometers. The Badaling Great Wall, the Guancheng, the city wall, the fortress and the Juyong Pass in the middle of the Guangou constituted a complete military defense system for Beijing in the Ming Dynasty.

Badaling is located in Yanqing County, northwest of the capital, about 80 kilometers away from the city, and it takes more than an hour to take a special bus.

"The sky is high and the clouds are light,

Look at the southern flying geese.

If you don't reach the Great Wall, you are not a hero,

Twenty thousand strokes.

The peak on Liupan Mountain,

The red flag swept the west wind.

Today the long tassel is in hand,

When will you tie up the dragon?"

Climb to the 888 meters above sea level and overlook the "North Eighth Floor" in the distance, the Great Wall at the foot is on the mountain, winding and undulating, like a giant dragon that does not see the head and tail rolling and climbing on the ridge, majestic and magnificent, magnificent, heroic and heroic!

。。。。。。

Later, Dai Xiyan and Xia Ye visited the Summer Palace, the Old Summer Palace and other scenic spots, and flew back to Hangzhou. I have to say that tourism is actually a physical work, especially the itinerary is very compact play, it is also a small test of people's physical strength and heart, and I feel that it is the kind of casual play that can better appreciate the local cultural characteristics and humanistic feelings.

It's been more than ten days since I came out of Hangzhou, and the time is close to the end of the month, if nothing else, the freshmen will start school early next month!

And Lin Ziwei, who has not seen the endorsement for a long time, has quite a lot of opinions, so the endorsement can only hastily end this trip to the north, and if time permits, he still wants to see the sprouts of a few projects。。。。。。
