symbolic meaning

In ancient times, all the palaces, temples and tombs directly related to the emperor used their layout and images to embody the concept of the supremacy of imperial power.

As one of the important buildings, the Royal Garden is no exception.

During the Yongzheng and Qianlong periods of the Qing Dynasty, the expansion of imperial power reached an unprecedented level in China feudal society, which was fully reflected in the royal gardens built at that time. The symbolic meaning of imperial power is more extensive and complex than before.

For example, Jiudao in the back lake of Yuanmingyuan symbolizes Kyushu, Gong Yu; Oriental Fuhai symbolizes the East China Sea; In the northwest corner, Zibi Mountain House, the highest earth mountain in the whole park, symbolizes Kunlun Mountain, and the layout of the whole park symbolizes the national territory, thus expressing the imperial power implication of "all over the world, it is the land of kings".
