Part 3 Chapter 14 The Forbidden City
"Let's go to the Forbidden City first, it's still quite close to here." The decision is in Li Na's hands, and Wang Haiming only needs to do it.
"Well, that's good, it used to be the emperor's territory, let's take a look." For the Forbidden City, Wang Haiming is still very curious, I want to see what it looks like inside, after all, what the book says is flat, not as good as three-dimensional, it is comfortable and intuitive to look at in person.
"Well, it's still Miss Ben, let's give you a tour guide, but it's not free." Li Na blinked, begging for favors.
The Forbidden City, formerly known as the Forbidden City, is located in the center of the central axis of our capital, is the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties, covering an area of about 720,000 square meters, with a construction area of about 150,000 square meters, and is the world's largest and most well-preserved wooden structure palace-type building. The imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties, where 24 emperors of the two generations handled government affairs and lived here.
The Forbidden City is the essence of Han palace architecture, an incomparable masterpiece of ancient architecture, and has also been listed as a world cultural heritage.
Entering the inside, the intuitive feeling made Wang Haiming have a deeper understanding of this ancient building. The palace has four gates, the main gate is called the Noon Gate, the east gate is called Donghua Gate, the west gate is called Xihua Gate, and the north gate is called Shenwu Gate.
"The TV series I watched when I was a child all said that they were beheaded outside the noon gate, maybe it was this noon gate." Wang Haiming secretly guessed.
The name of Donghua Gate reminds Wang Haiming of the story of the Song Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, it has always been a heavy emphasis on literature and light on martial arts, and the highest glory is the Donghuamen roll call.
And Shenwumen also reminded Wang Haiming. That Li Er's Xuanwu Gate change.
The internal structure of the Forbidden City is divided into the Inner Court, the Imperial Garden, the Qianqing Palace, the Taihe Gate, the Taihe Palace, the Zhonghe Palace, the Baohe Palace, the Yangxin Palace, and the Hongyi Pavilion. Changyin Pavilion. Wenyuan Pavilion, a series of huge buildings in Chuxiu Palace.
The famous Forbidden City Museum naturally cannot be left behind, Wang Haiming learned. The Palace Museum has a large collection of precious cultural relics. According to statistics, there are as many as 1052653 cases in total. There are 1 million cultural relics, accounting for 1/6 of the total number of cultural relics in the country.
There are many national treasures that are unique to you. Some palaces in the Forbidden City have set up a comprehensive history and art museum, a painting hall, a classified ceramics hall, a bronze museum, a Ming and Qing arts and crafts museum, an inscription hall, a toy hall, a scholar's four treasures hall, a playthings hall, a treasure hall, a clock hall and a Qing Dynasty court rules and cultural relics exhibition, etc., with a large number of ancient art treasures. It is the museum with the richest collection of cultural relics in China.
However, Wang Haiming didn't pay much attention to these, after all, he was not very familiar with antiques.
Although it was just a matter of watching the flowers, Wang Haiming felt that he had greatly increased his knowledge.
It is said that it is better to see than to hear, and it is indeed a wise saying. A hurried morning passed quickly, and although he walked a lot, Wang Haiming didn't feel tired, and even Li Na did the same.
"Hey, why don't you feel very tired, I remember when I came with my friends before, although I was very happy to play, but I was also tired enough, but this time I was only a little tired." Li Na shook her head, looked at the panting fellow tourist next to her, and said in wonder.
"Hehe, do you want to know, I'll sue you at night." Wang Haiming smiled shamelessly, thinking about some things that were inappropriate for children.
"I hate it, ignore you". When Li Na saw Wang Haiming's bad appearance, she naturally knew what was going on, and stomped her feet and ran away.
In fact, in addition to Wang Haiming's family, Li Na drinks the most space river water, as well as the most food in the space, and Wang Haiming deliberately added the morning dew, which is based on Li Na's body now, which is very good.
"I don't know if it can be a long time when I do that kind of thing with her." Wang Haiming muttered quietly, but he didn't dare to let Li Na hear it.
In fact, what Wang Haiming wants to see most is the Forbidden City and the Badaling Great Wall. After a simple meal at noon, the two of them rushed to the Badaling Great Wall.
With the idea that if you don't go to the Great Wall, you will not be a hero, Wang Haiming climbed the ancient Great Wall. The Badaling Great Wall, located at the north entrance of the ancient road of Jundu Mountain in Yanqing County, north of the capital, is an important part of the Great Wall of China, a great defense project in ancient times, and is a pass of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty.
The Badaling Great Wall is an important outpost of Juyong Pass, which was called "the danger of Juyong is not in the pass but in Badaling", and is called "Yuguan Trench". Standing on the high city wall, Wang Haiming felt the majestic and precipitous style of the Badaling Great Wall.
As a barrier to Kyoto, the mountains overlap here, and the shape is dangerous. The imposing city wall spirals north and south and extends among the mountains and mountains, and there is no end in sight.
The Great Wall stretches out on both sides according to the mountain's situation, and the word 'natural danger' written by the ancients on the steep cliff accurately summarizes the military importance of the location of Badaling.
Wang Haiming found that there were five iron cannons beside the horse road at the entrance of the Badaling Guancheng, which was one of the advanced weapons of the ancient artillery at that time. The largest of them is 2.85 meters long, 105 mm caliber, and has a firing range of more than 1,000 meters.
Wang Haiming remembered that "Wubei Zhi" recorded: "In ancient times, the stone was sent by the machine, and the wooden frame of the machine was shaped like a tiger squatting. Later, the artillery was used, the cannon body was short and thick, and the person who fired the bullet was called the Tiger Squat Cannon, commonly known as the Tianji Cannon", which shows that the weapon situation at that time was very strong.
Wang Haiming remembered that the Great Wall had existed since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and he was determined to resist foreign invasions. Among them, the most obvious is the time of Qin Shi Huang, the Great Wall built, in the north of the Han Dynasty, cast into an insurmountable moat, so that the Hu people sighed.
However, in the history of the wild, there is also a story of Meng Jiangnu crying on the Great Wall, which is poignant and sad. The Great Wall is known as one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and even in today's modern era, it is very difficult to complete such a majestic construction, let alone the ancient times when there were no cranes and no vehicles. Presumably, there are countless people who sacrificed their lives to build the Great Wall.
Wang Haiming was a little sad and unspeakably sad.
On the other hand, Li Na didn't have so much thought, she was happy like a lark, singing again for a while, shouting again for a while, and shouting Wang Haiming to take pictures together, but she had a lot of fun.
"Maybe it's a little less killing, it always feels a little fake." In fact, Wang Haiming still likes history very much, standing on the high city wall, according to the Hu people under the city wall, that kind of domineering is not comparable at this time.
In recent years, it has been popular to cross, Wang Haiming thought, if you cross, it is best to be able to cross in the Tang Dynasty, the kind of defense that does not need the Great Wall at all, and directly kills, it is called domineering. Wherever the iron rider goes, it is all Datang, how domineering it is.
"Heming, what's wrong, why are you stunned"! Li Na jumped over and found Wang Haiming leaning on the city wall in a daze, very puzzled.
"Oh, nothing, I accidentally went crazy, take a break". Wang Haiming came back to his senses at this time, and found that he would think so far, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, crossing, that's just a joke, how can it be real, only in movies and TV series.
"You, such a big person, why don't you pay attention, don't you see so many steps, come, sit down and let me take a look and rub it for you." Li Na complained, while carefully supporting Wang Haiming, letting him sit on the steps, rubbing his feet and necks slightly, like a gentle wife.
"Hey, forget it". Wang Haiming couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when he saw Li Na working so hard, he lied, but before he could say it, he was stopped by Li Na and asked him to sit down obediently.
Wang Haiming smiled bitterly, that sentence is right, people, you just can't lie, one lie, often two lies will be used to lie, and two sentences need four sentences, four lies, you need more, until the end, you can no longer find an excuse.
Wang Haiming secretly swore that he would never lie again in the future, even if it was just a small matter, of course, white lies did not count.
In order to take care of Wang Haiming's pseudo-sick number, Li Na did not run around, but held Wang Haiming's arm and walked around.
But at this time, Wang Haiming found out that this is like a couple.
It wasn't until it was almost dark that the two got on the bus back to the city.
"Heming, I'm not going home today." After hesitating for a while, Li Na whispered.
"What's wrong, I quarreled with grandpa"? Wang Haiming heard Li Na talk about his hometown before. Since his parents are in the provincial capital, there are only grandparents in his hometown.
"No, people want to be with you." Li Na blushed and said, but Wang Haiming was very happy. (To be continued......)
