I think the Forbidden City is still worth visiting. Let yourself be the master of the Forbidden City once. But walking is very tiring, so you must wear a pair of comfortable shoes. It's magnificent here ... it's only about 50% open now. 16 will open to about 80%. If you look back at that time, you can see that many scenes of TV series were shot there. But it's better for you to travel freely now. When you go in, you must watch it there for a day:
Be sure to get up early in the morning, in fact, playing is also a hard thing.
If you come to Beijing from other places, I'll give you some advice.
Among the famous scenic spots in Beijing, Tiananmen Square is the most crowded place during the National Day. The subway station will definitely stop. It's a long journey by car, and the security check takes half a day. Besides, there will be many people in the Forbidden City, so you can't go at all. Jinshui Bridge is only allowed to enter and not to exit (one way). The most prone to traffic jams is Badaling Expressway. So if you can come to Beijing two days in advance (the topic says 29th-7th), you can take time to visit Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City and the Great Wall before the official start of the National Day holiday, and there will be relatively few people. Of course, it would be better if you had been to these scenic spots before (at that time, my family had been there before and didn't want to go again, so fortunately I escaped). Pay attention, especially don't go to Tiananmen Square on 10. 1. If you don't queue up to watch the flag-raising in the middle of the night, you can hardly see anything. If you want to go to the Great Wall, it is recommended to take a direct train to Beijing North Station. Tickets are cheap and fast, and there will be no traffic jams. Just buy the ticket early, otherwise you can't buy it. Come back as soon as you come back. You'd better go in the morning and come back at noon. There will be many people returning in the afternoon, and there will be a long queue to buy tickets. These two points are far apart and take a long time, so it is best to put them in two days.
For example:
1. On the first day, the Great Wall and other places, such as the zoo (there will be many people on holidays), the planetarium and the museum of ancient animals (there are few people, so make an appointment in advance), are all near Beijing North Station, and you can walk there after returning to the city in the afternoon.
2. The next day, Tiananmen Square, including Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City (if there are few people, you can rent a guided plane and spend half a day sightseeing), the Great Hall of the People and the National Museum. You can also go to Beihai Park and Jingshan Park when you are free, and go to Houhai Bar Street and Lotus Market in the evening. There are many places to eat. Please refer to the public comment for details.
PS: If you want to go to Tiananmen Gate, you should bring your ID card. And you should take good care of your bag, and you can't take anything with you.
3. The third day. It is suggested to continue to visit Tiananmen Square. Zhongshan Park and the Working People's Cultural Palace (also known as the Forbidden City) are on both sides of Tiananmen Square, but there are always few people, so it is worth visiting. The ancient trees are towering, and the land is vast and sparsely populated, which is very suitable for sitting for half a day. If you have time, you can also go to the legendary xinhua gate (the legendary * * * Oh, but you can only take a photo at the door) and Qianmen Street, where you can take a walk. If there is a place you can't go the next day, you can also go.
It is strongly recommended to go to the National Grand Theatre next to Tiananmen Square. You can buy a tourist ticket and walk around. You can also book tickets for performances in advance (preferably half a month in advance), such as plays, operas or concerts. The fare is not expensive, but it is definitely worth it. The performance is usually at 7: 30 pm. However, tickets for the performance can only enter the venue you bought. If you want to see it all and don't care about the money, you can visit tickets (during the day)+show tickets (at night).
Generally speaking, if you want to have a good time in Tiananmen Square, it will take at least two days. You can go to a crowded place to play on the first day, and then go shopping the next day if you are not finished.
Yuanmingyuan, Summer Palace, Peking University and Tsinghua are all close at hand, and they all have Beijing characteristics and are worth visiting. I suggest putting these into one day. May be very tired, physical strength can be broken down in two days. ......& gt& gt
Question 2: What should I see when I go to the Forbidden City? Several halls on the main shaft are related to the emperor. I also want to see the imperial garden in the northernmost part, as well as the treasure museum and clock museum in the east. After all, I don't often visit the Forbidden City. It's best to meet them. I also suggest that you rent an automatic explanation machine at the entrance of the Forbidden City. Deposit 100 yuan, rent 10 yuan. Every time you go to a penalty place, you will feel it and you will start to explain it in detail. Very convenient. Finally, you can refund the deposit when you go out (you can refund it when you go out from the south gate and the north gate).
Question 3: What do I need to see to go to the Forbidden City? If you just wander around, there are three halls on the central axis of the Forbidden City, a cultural relic exhibition in the Hougong Pavilion, a treasure hall, six palaces in the East and West, and a royal garden. There are Crystal Palace in Yan Xi Palace, as well as Palace of Gathered Elegance, Military Department and Changchun Palace, all of which are representative. The Forbidden City and the Cartier Jewelry Exhibition are all foreign palace products, which are feast your eyes. There is also the earliest telephone office in the Forbidden City, Puyi's Museum of the Combination of Chinese and Western, and the slant halls on both sides. The exhibits are worth seeing, ranging from jade boxes that Master Qianlong always plays with, precious old photos, to tea, perfume and medicinal materials. I hope this helps.
I said it wasn't enough. I have to see it myself and experience it myself.
Question 4: Why are only a small part of the things in the Palace Museum on display, and none of them are valuable? Of course, I can't see what I want to see. In fact, there are not many good things in the Palace Museum, most of which were added later. Most of the good things in the imperial city are in the Louvre, the British Museum, the National Palace Museum in Taipei and the Forbidden City. Actually, it's mainly about architecture
Question 5: What is the first place you see when you enter the Forbidden City? If you enter the Forbidden City from the meridian gate, the first thing you should see is Taihemen Square, with Neijinshui River, Neijinshui Bridge and Taihemen on it.
If you enter the Forbidden City from Shenwumen, the first thing you should see is Shunzhen Gate, the back door of the Imperial Garden.
Question 6: What did you see when you entered the gate of the Forbidden City? There are four doors in the Forbidden City. The main entrance is called the meridian gate. Its plane is concave and spectacular. There are five exquisite white marble arch bridges leading to Taihe Gate behind the Wumen Gate. The east gate is called Donghuamen, the west gate is called Xihuamen and the north gate is called Shenwumen. There are exquisite turrets in all four corners of the Forbidden City. The turret is 27.5 meters high, with a cross-shaped roof, triple eaves, mountains all around and many angles staggered. It is a wonderful building. The main entrance of the Forbidden City is called "Wumen Gate", commonly known as Wufeng Tower. The east, west and north sides are connected by a platform 12 meters high, surrounded by a square. There is a 1 building. There is a heavy building in the middle, which is 9 halls with wide faces and double eaves. There are four pavilions, with eaves and roofs on the left and right protruding walls, which are connected by open corridors. Each wing has a 13 hall, and each corner has a tall corner pavilion that supports the main hall. The gatehouse of this shape is called "Quemen", which is the most advanced form of the ancient gate in China. The buildings in this group of cities are magnificent and the first peak in the Palace Museum. The meridian gate is the place where the emperor issued letters and ordered expeditions. Every time the imperial edict is read out and the almanac is issued, officials of civil and military affairs will gather in the square in front of the meridian gate to listen to the imperial edict. Usually only the emperor can enter and exit the main entrance of the meridian gate. The emperor gets married, the queen enters once, and those who win the first prize, the second place and the third place in the palace entrance examination can walk out of this door once. The ministers of civil and military affairs went in and out of the east gate, and the royal princes went in and out of the west gate. The back door is Shenwumen, which was called Xuanwu Gate in Ming Dynasty. Xuanwu is one of the four ancient beasts. From the azimuth, Zuo Qinglong, Right White Tiger, Former Suzaku and Later Xuanwu dominate the north, so the North Palace Gate of the Forbidden City is named Xuanwu. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, it was renamed "Shenwumen" because of taboo. Shenwumen is also a city gate building, the highest-grade double-eaved roof, but its main hall has only five bays and a veranda, and there are no wings extending forward from left to right, so it is one level lower than Wumen in shape. Shenwumen is the entrance guard for daily access to the palace. Now Shenwumen is the main entrance of the Palace Museum. Donghuamen corresponds to Xihuamen, and there is a dismount monument outside. Inside the gate, North Henan Golden Water Flow, Shiqiao 1, North Bridge Sanmen. Donghuamen and Xihuamen have the same shape, with a rectangular plane, a red podium and a white jade base, among which there are three coupon doors with excircle coupon holes. There are towers, yellow glazed tiles and double eaves on the rostrum. The tower is five rooms wide and three rooms deep, surrounded by corridors. Within the meridian gate, there is a vast courtyard. There is an arc-shaped inner Jinshui River running through the east and west in the courtyard, and the outer court palace gate-Taihe Gate is in the north, with rooms on the left and right. There are five bridges on the Jinshui River, which are equipped with white marble railings that rotate with the river like jade belts. elephant
Question 7: I saw it once in the Forbidden City. What is this? It's called a single pen with Yunlong stone carving in the middle.
Question 8: What is the most recommended place for tourists in the Forbidden City? Why? Zhenbaoguan
Reason: It is a favorable witness of human civilization and a portrayal of royal luxury life to condense the essence of Chinese and foreign art and technology. Of course, it is also the most meaningful for people who like to collect.
The rest are buildings. These buildings all look the same after a long time.
