Why is the Forbidden City a model of China architecture?

The value and position of the Forbidden City as a cultural heritage is determined by its rich connotation. The Palace Museum consists of three parts: ancient buildings, cultural relics collection and the Palace Museum. These three parts not only have their own independent values, but also are interrelated. * * * * together constitute the unparalleled value and unusual position of the Forbidden City. The ancient building of the Forbidden City is the imperial palace in China during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, with a history of nearly 600 years. It is one of the first units in China to be included in the World Cultural Heritage List. The value of the ancient buildings in the Forbidden City is mainly reflected in four aspects. First of all, it is of great significance in the architectural history of China. Palace is the most mature and successful type of ancient architecture in China, and the Forbidden City is the epitome of palace architecture in past dynasties, and it is also the only existing example and the highest level in the development history of ancient Miyagi in China. Since the completion of 1420, the Forbidden City has undergone many renovations and expansions, but it still maintains the pattern when it was first built. With a building area of about 6.5438+0.6 million square meters, the Forbidden City is the largest and most well-preserved ancient palace complex in the world. During the construction and maintenance of the ancient buildings in the Forbidden City, based on the construction technology of ancient buildings in China, a set of rigorous palace building construction technology has been formed, which is called "official ancient building construction technology". This technology not only keeps the original appearance of the ancient buildings in the Forbidden City, but also directly affects the development of the construction technology of ancient buildings in China. In 2008, "Official Architectural Skills of the Forbidden City" was announced by the State Council as a national intangible cultural heritage project. The Forbidden City is not only the center of Beijing, the core of the rich connotation of Beijing's famous historical and cultural city, but also the most representative symbol of China culture. Secondly, the ancient buildings of the Forbidden City contain rich traditional culture of China. In the planning and design, the Forbidden City fully embodies the Confucian etiquette system and the ethical concept of the supremacy of imperial power. Its main buildings are arranged by the annex "Examining Zhou Li and Gong Ji", "Going forward and succeeding", "Left Ancestors and Right Houses" and "Five Doors and Three Dynasties". The influence of Feng Shui, Yin Yang and Five Elements is reflected in the choice of orientation, the treatment of environment, the decoration of buildings and the use of colors. Thirdly, as a 49 1 year imperial palace in Ming and Qing dynasties, 24 emperors lived here and took power. It is the political center and power center of the country, and there have been countless thrilling military events, confusing palace secrets and bloody power struggles. There are a lot of cultural relics and rich historical stories in hall of mental cultivation, Military Department, Wen Yuan Pavilion and Wuying Hall. The collection of cultural relics is closely related to emperors, court remains, laws and regulations, court culture and times style. Fourth, the Forbidden City is closely related to Beijing's urban planning and other royal buildings in Ming and Qing Dynasties. The layout of Beijing in Ming and Qing Dynasties was further improved on the basis of the Forbidden City and the Yuan Dynasty, which clearly reflected the urban planning thought of China ancient society with palaces as the main body. The central axis with the Forbidden City as the center extends 7.5 kilometers to the south, which has become the most obvious symbol of Beijing, making the urban layout more stable, and also strengthening the imperial consciousness of "facing south as king" and "being the only one" from the image. There are 60 national key cultural relics protection units in Beijing, including 29 royal palaces, gardens, tombs, temples and other related buildings in Ming and Qing Dynasties, accounting for nearly half. There are 29 world cultural heritages and dual world cultural and natural heritages in China, among which the Forbidden City, Summer Palace, Summer Resort, Temple of Heaven, imperial tombs of the ming and qing dynasties and other royal buildings account for 1/5. Therefore, the Forbidden City is not only the center of Beijing, the core of the rich connotation of Beijing's famous historical and cultural city, but also the most representative symbol of China culture.
