What is the research and protection project of the Forbidden City?

The Palace Museum is one of the few museums in the world that integrates art museum, architecture museum, history museum and palace culture museum, and it is an important carrier of Chinese national culture inheritance. Over the past 600 years, the ancient buildings of the Forbidden City have been rebuilt and expanded many times in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the official architectural skills formed were listed in the national intangible cultural heritage list in 2008.

In 2002, the overall maintenance and protection project of the ancient buildings in the Forbidden City started, with a construction period of 18. This "century overhaul" has attracted worldwide attention, and people in the Forbidden City are cautious. "In a sense, the problems encountered in the protection and inheritance of the ancient buildings in the Forbidden City are not only problems of craftsmanship and technology, but also problems of understanding and attitude, that is, what kind of ideas should be used to treat China's traditional culture and human cultural heritage." Dan Jixiang, director of the Palace Museum, said.

In 20 15, the Palace Museum selected hall of mental cultivation, Ganlong Garden, Dagao Xuandian and the Forbidden City Wall as "research and protection projects" on the basis of summarizing the previous experience in the renovation of ancient buildings, and explored a new implementation mechanism and inheritance model for the renovation of ancient buildings.
