Winter @ Beijing 2 : Tiananmen Square & Forbidden City

Pukul 10.30am bergerak ke Tiananmen square dan Forbidden City..dalam kul 11am dah sampai sana.. menjelajah ke Forbidden City sampai kul 1.30 pm..

info dari valon sewaktu dalam bas;
satu famili boleh ada cuma sorang anak
tapi depend on puak, sesetengah puak yang dah hampir pupus, boleh ada dua orang anak..
dalam kes valon, lepas dia lahir ja, baru depa kuatkuasakan perintah yang macam ni..

Jom belajar sejarah :)

Forbidden City, the Imperial Palace complex in Beijing, contains hundreds of buildings and some 9,000 rooms. It served the emperors of China from 1421 to 1911. In the centre of China's capital Beijing, the Forbidden City displays an extraordinarily harmonious balance between buildings and open space within a symmetrical layout. It contains immense courtyards, terraces and stairways, and buildings decorated with golden roofs, vermilion, vivid red pigment of durable quality. Columns and green, red and yellow facings are amazing. The Forbidden City conveys a strong image of wealth and earthly power and surpasses Versailles in its majesty, without abandoning a sense of human scale.

The Wumen Gate building, the entrance of Forbiden City, is  located on the meridian line of the city. That was a gate tower buildingwas built in 1420. Its scope is next to Tai He Dian Palace. And it is the highest construction of the Forbidden City, the total height of which is 36 meters. Wu Men (Meridian Gate) has five openings and is surrounded by five pavilions. Only the emperor or those permitted by the emperor could enter through the center gate.

The uses of Wu Men were many:

1. The entrance of the Forbiden City is a gate tower building. On December 1st of lunar calendar the emperors would promulgate the calendar of next year at the rostrum of Wumen Gate;

2. When the troops returned triumphant after they won the battles at important campaigns the generals would perform the ceremony of presenting  the prisoners to the emperors here.

3. At important ceremonies and festivals majestic insignias were reviewed by the emperors at Wumen gate.
