As we all know, the Forbidden City is not only a treasure of continental architecture, but also belongs to all mankind. Whenever the Forbidden City scenic spot is open to the public, many tourists will come to visit. We know that there are many secrets in the Forbidden City, and the buildings of the Forbidden City, brick by brick, are often written about royal relations. Therefore, for the Forbidden City, it is not just a tourist attraction, but has a certain cultural connotation. Therefore, the Forbidden City is also one of the symbols of traditional Chinese culture. So, what kind of charm does the Forbidden City have? And what are the stories? Similar to why the Forbidden City did not plant trees in the three halls of Taibao, Zhongyuan, and Baohe, it had little effect except to protect the emperor and the imperial family, leaving the Assassins with nowhere to hide.
When it comes to why the bird droppings on the roof of the Forbidden City are missing, it is actually the unique brick and tile design of the Palace Museum that many birds dare not stay. In short, there are many problems in the Forbidden City. For example, when we visit the Forbidden City, we can always find a century-old "mahogany" in the corner of the courtyard, which is long and heavy, and cannot be moved by bare hands. Many tourists are stunned by this question, so what is the point of this question? Originally, it was built specifically for the royal palace - red walls and green tiles, carved beams and paintings. It is only through the mouth of the guide that we know that mahogany is closely related to the life of the emperor.
Mahogany is considered a mobile threshold, and when it comes to thresholds, many northern courtyards have such thresholds, except that in ancient times, there was a material difference between the thresholds of ordinary people and the thresholds of the royal family. Compared with the mahogany raw wood wrapped in iron by the emperor, ordinary people are likely to be made of ordinary stone and wood. Therefore, in the Beijing courtyard of the Ming and Qing dynasties, in addition to mahogany furniture, there is also a kind of furniture called "big wooden man", which is commonly referred to as mahogany furniture. Now, people have given a new understanding of mahogany. Having said all this, we know that the general sill is fixed, but this mahogany sill comes in the form of movement.
In the corner of the yard, it was really inconvenient. If you put it in the middle of the courtyard, you can solve this problem. That's why it's "one house, two families"? Because, when you want to move in, just push the gate back. If you can't move one, you'll have to carry two. Isn't that more damaging than a fixed threshold? In fact, in the words we often say, we can know this meaning: the threshold is high, and it is good to enter the door. Therefore, for the Forbidden City, the higher the threshold of the courtyard, the greater the power. Like the Forbidden City, there are many problems with the threshold of the patio, and the most important role is to prevent foreign ministers from forcibly entering the palace.
If the threshold is high, the speed of forcing the palace will be slower, and it will also strive to give the emperor more opportunities to escape. Every day after the Forbidden City is closed, the staff must also comply with the rules of the threshold. This is not only related to the image of the Forbidden City, but also related to the safety of tourists. Therefore, for the Forbidden City, the importance of the threshold is self-evident. So, how can we keep the threshold above all else? The first is to be strict with the word. The threshold has been a status symbol of the continent since ancient times, and when the gate is opened, the threshold may sit casually in a corner of the courtyard, but it must be pointed out that the presence of the threshold is indispensable.
