Shenyang Imperial Palace

Shenyang Top 1 in Can't Miss Attractions

The snow of Shengjing is soft and quiet. Come back to Shenyang, time back, through the Qing Dynasty. Wearing a special gig costume, it has a strong ancient flavor. Stepping into the Forbidden City in Shenyang, the red walls, green tiles and white snow add color to Shengjing. Compared with the Forbidden City in Beijing, the Forbidden City is full of rich Manchu ethnic styles, combined with the local characteristics of Northeast China, which is unmatched by the Forbidden City in Beijing.

Speaking of the Forbidden City, there is actually another one in addition to Beijing in China. This is the Shenyang Imperial Palace in Shenyang, also known as the Shengjing Palace. The history of the Forbidden City in Shenyang is much shorter than that of the Forbidden City in Beijing. It is only 400 years ago. In fact, it was only a short period of time in the early Qing Dynasty. When the Qing Dynasty moved into Beijing, the Shenyang Imperial Palace was only used as the “Public Palace” where Liudu Palace exists. The area of the Forbidden City in Shenyang is much smaller than that of the Forbidden City in Beijing. The craftsmanship of the ancient buildings is still remarkable, and it is well preserved. It was also included in the UNESCO World Heritage sites List in 2004.

The Forbidden City, not only in Beijing, but also has a long history of the Forbidden City. The administrative center of Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty was in the Forbidden City in Shenyang. The Forbidden City in Beijing is the palace of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty and the Forbidden City in Shenyang is the palace of the Manchurian royal family. Later, after the Qing Dynasty moved all the palaces here to Beijing, the Ming Dynasty Palace naturally became the Manchu Palace, and it was located in Shenyang. After the expansion of the Forbidden City, it became the palace of the emperors' east tour, which is also the veritable Dongjiao Imperial Palace. The architectural style of the Shenyang Imperial Palace was built in full accordance with the characteristics of the Northeast. As for the Northeast style, you can refer to the architectural style of Zhang's handsome house. Under the influence of the architectural culture of the Ming Palace, the palace in Shenyang was built according to the combination of the characteristics of the Northeast and the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, when we come to the Forbidden City in Shenyang, we will first find that there is no obvious atmosphere of Manchu culture. In the interior of the palace, we will find some custom features of the Manchu in the Northeast. The initial size of the Shenyang Palace was not large. After the expansion, it was equivalent to the area of the Ming Palace in Beijing. The overall design is in line with the traditional Chinese theory of building Feng Shui. Probably because the Manchus are more respectful of the Han feng shui, the overall design and the Feng Shui pattern of the Ming Palace can be said to be twin brothers and sisters. The overall structure of the red wall and black tile, combined with the embellishment of cyan, highlights the pattern of Han culture, but the Manchu custom can not fall. Yamano Jun will be shocked by the entire historical city wall when I enter the Shenyang Imperial Palace.

Shenyang Imperial Palace. I always wanted to see the Forbidden City in the snow, and see the Beijing city that changed after the snow. There is no chance, there is thinking about going to Shenyang this time, there is also the Forbidden City, you should be able to see the scene after the snow. The result was that the weather was too warm and there was neither snow nor snow. The Shenyang Imperial Palace is much smaller than the Beijing Forbidden City, but the relatives are also a lot less, so you can slow down the pace and turn around. If it compares, I am more attentive to the Shenyang Imperial Palace, quietly falling in a city. Specially like the photos of the wall. I remember that more than a year in the Forbidden City in Beijing, outside the red wall, I have also seen such a group. Support the bricks, walk slowly, feel the bricks and tiles in the hundreds of years of history, one by one. Feel the historical vicissitudes of the changes in the world. So, the days have passed.
