作文介绍故宫的一处景(20篇)

故宫位于北京市城中心，也叫“紫禁城”。这里曾经居住过24个皇帝，是公园1368~1911年的皇宫，现在还叫做“故宫博物馆。”

故宫是中国现存最大，且最完整的古建筑群，总面积达72万多平方米，有宫殿宫室990多间，被称为“殿首之海”。不管是平面布局，还是立体效果，在形式上的宏伟堂皇，都堪称无与伦比的佳作。

故宫的四个城角都有精巧玲珑的角楼，建造精巧美观，宫城周围环绕着搞10米，长340米的宫墙，墙外还有52米宽的护城河呢十分雄伟气魄!

目前，故宫中收藏了大量古代的艺术珍品，据统计，收藏数量共达1052633件，占中国文物总数的六分之一，是中国收藏文物罪丰富的一间博物馆，同时也是世界著名的古代文化艺术博物馆，其中，很多文物是绝无仅有的无价之宝。

故宫，由朱棣皇亲自策划营建。现存规模宏大，构造规模宏大，构造严谨，装饰精美，文物众多，在中国古建筑中是绝无仅有的，是世界著名的皇宫建筑群。

故宫文物分为宫廷原状和古代艺术量大陈列体系，先后布置了51个原状陈列，真实性非常高，建立了十余个专馆，先后举办了各种展览数百余次，欧、亚、美、澳、非五大洲展览书多次，宣传中国灿烂的古代文化艺术传统，促进与世界各国的文化交流。

在我国北京首都，有一个宏伟而又高大的建筑，那就是故宫，距今有600年的历史了。

在那里，城墙有十多米高，一共有四座大城门，分别是南武门、神武门和东华门、西华门，连房屋都有9000多间，还有一座座玲珑奇巧的角楼，它气势磅礴，而且建筑也十分精致与精美。

故宫经过几百年的风吹雨打，以及最可怕的地震，为何故宫仍能安然无恙呢？那里的城墙十分硬实，即使来个十级大地震，却也是给它“挠痒痒”。令人赞叹不已！故宫不仅墙壁厚实，城墙上的花纹也很精美，五颜六色、形态各异。故宫里的柱子都是刷红漆的，上面会盘旋上一条金色的大龙，有双龙戏珠，单龙翔舞，让人一看上去就觉得气势昂扬。

在建造故宫时，那是用几十万根木头组建而成的，再加上精美的图案与花纹，组成了故宫的基础建筑，但是，故宫在修建时，没有现在这样发达的技术，所以铸造故宫是一个十分艰巨的任务，那时的人民能把故宫铸造的这么精美牢固，真令我佩服不已！可见，我国古代的劳动人们是充满智慧的，是有着坚持不懈、吃苦耐劳的优秀品质的。不管是局部统一、形体美观都达到了完美，所以才成为了现在的世界文化遗产，是我国一众所周知的宏伟建筑代表景点。

我喜欢故宫，并不单单是它的外表与形体美观、精致，更是代表中国人们智慧的结晶。

雄伟壮观的故宫博物院是世界闻名的皇家建筑群之一。

走进天安门，经过端门，午门，就来到太和门，一座高大的宫殿展现在我的眼前，这就是皇上办公的太和殿，经过太和殿就来到中和殿，过了中和殿就是保和殿。每个殿都有朱红的宫墙和大门，屋顶上盖的是黄色的琉璃瓦。过了保和殿，再拐个弯，就看到一个小门，进了门，向右看，就看见九龙壁，九龙壁上刻着九条龙，它们的颜色分别是白，蓝，黄，黑四种，它们的形状各异，没有哪两条是相同的。过了九龙壁，再从左边小门进去，就来到钟表室。当我进入钟表室时，我不禁愕然，分明是来到钟的王国，钟的海洋，大大小小的古钟鳞次栉比，琳琅满目，有红木人物风扇钟，铜镀金绿鲨鱼皮天文钟，铜壶滴漏，硬木雕花自名钟等，一共有钟表1000多种。过了钟表室，转个圈儿就来到御花园，御花园景色优美，四季都有花开，这一种花还没有谢，那一种又开了。花园中间有个假山，在周围小草的掩映下，假山更漂亮了。

It is believed that the Palace Museum, or Zi Jin Cheng (Purple Forbidden City), got its name from astronomy folklore, The ancient astronomers divided the constellations into groups and centered them around the Ziwei Yuan (North Star) . The constellation containing the North Star was called the Constellation of Heavenly God and star itself was called the purple palace. Because the emperor was supposedly the son of the heavenly gods, his central and dominant position would be further highlighted the use of the word purple in the name of his residence. In folklore, the term ―an eastern purple cloud is drifting‖ became a metaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud was seen drifting eastward immediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher, LaoZi, to the Hanghu Pass. Here, purple is associated with auspicious developments. The word jin (forbidden) is self-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-limits to ordinary people.

The Forbidden City is rectangular in shape. It is 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meter wide from east west. It has 9,900 rooms under a total roof area 150,000 square meters. A 52-meter-wide-moat encircles a 9. 9-meter—high wall which encloses the complex. Octagon —shaped turrets rest on the four corners of the wall. There are four entrances into the city: the Meridian Gate to the south, the Shenwu Gate (Gate of Military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate (Gate of military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate (Western Flowery Gate ) to the west, the Donghua (Eastern Flowery Gate) to the east.

Manpower and materials throughout the country were used to build the Forbidden City. A total of 230,000 artisans and one million laborers were employed. Marble was quarried from fangshan Country Mount Pan in Jixian County in Hebei Province. Granite was quarried in Quyang County in Hebei Province. Paving blocks were fired in kilns in Suzhou in southern China. Bricks and scarlet pigmentation used on the palatial walls came from linqing in Shandong Province. Timber was cut, processed and hauled from the northwestern and southern regions.

大家好！我是本次导游赵虹杰，大家一定都知道北京的故宫吧？没错！北京故宫是享誉世界的历史遗产，是明、清两代的皇宫，也是世界现存最大、最完整的古建筑群。被誉为世界五大宫之首。它位于北京市中心，旧称紫禁城。接下来就让我带大家去游览一番吧……

由天安门进入，穿过一片青砖铺地的广场，便到达紫禁城的正门——午门。故宫有4个门，正门名午门，东门名东华门，西门名西华门，北门名神武门。午门俗称五凤楼，穿过午门，有广阔的大庭院，在3万多平方米开阔的庭院中，有五座精巧的汉白玉拱桥通往太和门。到了太和门，就进入了故宫的 “外朝”，故宫的建筑依据其布局与功用分为“外朝”与“内廷”两大部分。外朝以太和、中和、保和三大殿为中心，是皇帝举行朝会的地方，也称为“前朝”。过桥经过太和门便是雄伟的太和殿。这座殿堂有着一段曲折的故事，听说它被天火焚毁过三次，也修好过三次，而且更神奇的是整座宫殿的建造居然没有一颗钉子！内廷以乾清宫、交泰殿、坤宁宫后三宫为中心，两翼为养心殿、东、西六宫，绕过内廷，我们最后来到了御花园，御花园里栽满了奇花异草。一路走来，会闻到一阵阵淡淡的花香。是封建帝王与后妃居住所。

游览故宫，可以从天安门进，也可以由后门——神武门进经太和殿、中和殿、保和殿，穿过乾清门，便进入内廷，内廷分中路、东路和西路三条路线。如果是半日游，这三条路线只能游一条，一般可走中路。走中路可看乾清宫、交泰殿、坤宁宫、嫔妃所住的地方和御花园。一般来说，用半天时间游故宫，比较吃力，想要知识更广，大家就再细细去游赏吧！

说起美丽的故宫，每个人都很熟悉。 故宫又叫紫禁城，是世界五大宫之首，是明清两代的皇宫，始建于公元1406年，面积约有725000平方米，相当于900个大操场那么大。 进了故宫的正门--午门，一个大广场呈现在我们眼前。广场上有五座精巧的汉白玉拱桥。桥下有一条金水河，形似玉带，漂亮极了。 站在广场上，抬头一看，一座金碧辉煌的宫殿耸立在眼前，黄色的琉璃瓦闪闪发光。这就是太和殿。太和殿内雕镂金漆的宝座，坐落在正中的须弥坐式楠木平台上，宝座周围是六根沥粉蟠龙金柱，气势磅礴。宝座上方的天花中央是巨大的蟠龙藻井。 出了太和殿，绕过中和殿和保和殿，就是乾清宫。乾清宫在明代和清代前期是皇帝的寝宫。皇帝在乾清宫处理政务，召见臣工，接见外国使臣及内廷受贺和举行家宴。 从乾清宫出来，绕过交泰殿和坤宁宫，就是御花园。进了御花园，就会看到一座亭子。葱郁的树丛映衬着红色的墙壁和金黄的琉璃瓦，那就是千秋亭，千秋亭旁边是堆秀山，堆秀山是一座石头砌成的假山，四处是碧绿的树木，美丽极了。 关于故宫还有一个传说。相传古代有一个人叫刘伯温。有一天，他对皇帝说：“陛下，臣昨晚做了个梦，梦见玉帝召见臣，说皇上住的宫殿必须要有三十六金刚及七十二地煞看守，否则会有灾难。说完腾云而去，臣就吓醒了。”皇帝听了，命令刘伯温去造一座宫殿，就叫紫禁城，要有三十六金刚及七十二地煞把守。老百姓闻之此事后，都等着看刘伯温怎么造有三十六金刚及七十二地煞把守的宫殿。过了十个月，宫殿造好了，皇帝看到宫里金光闪闪，好像是三十六金刚及七十二地煞在把守，高兴极了，奖赏了刘伯温，再晋升三级。后来人们才发现那些“三十六金刚”只不过是黄金，“七

十二地煞”只不过是七十二口大缸。 故宫处处是美丽的景色，希望大家能细细游赏。

中国的首都。中国人心之所在。中国的故宫。中国人心之所在。 故宫始建于公元1406年（永乐四年），1420年（永乐十八年）基本竣工，历时14年，而在这十四年的艰苦中，故宫不知经历过了多少场大火，多少场灾难，但是，中国人不怕艰苦，毁了又建，这正是中国人那顽强的意志！北京故宫，又叫北京博物馆，又名紫禁城，位于北京市中心，旧称紫禁城。故宫号称九千九百九十九间半，相传天上有房屋一万间，天子用来自谦，于是少了半间。是明、清两代的皇宫，是一座无与伦比古代建筑杰作，也是世界现存最大、最完整的木质结构的古建筑群。被誉为世界五大宫之首。还是世界保留最完整的古代建筑群，是中国最多的古代建筑群。今天人们称它为故宫，意为过去的皇宫。 故宫是龙的世界，龙的造型千姿百态，栩栩如生。在我国封建社会里，皇帝被称做“真龙天子”，是大地的主宰。故宫是明、清两朝的皇宫，因此，宫中的殿堂、桥梁、丹陛、石雕以及帝后宝玺、服饰御用品等无不以龙作为纹饰。那么，故宫里到底有多少龙？恐怕谁也说不清。有人粗算过，故宫号称有宫殿8000多间，仅以每殿有6条龙计算，就有龙近4万条，如果加上所有建筑装饰和一切御用品上的龙，那就数不胜数了。 让我们走进中国，走进中国

人们都说：“故宫是我国乃至全世界保存得最完善，历史最悠久，最宏伟的一座宫殿。”下面是小编整理的介绍故宫作文，欢迎查看。 故宫的介绍作文一：

北京故宫，古人称为紫荆城。位于北京中轴线的中心，是世界上现存规模最大、保存最为完整的木质结构的宫殿型建筑。

走进故宫，就来到有名的午门。午门高大而又雄伟，是故宫的大门。午门有五个门洞，可是从正面看，似乎是三个，实际上正面还有左右两个掖门。

接着，我们来到了太和宫。在通往太和宫的石桥两旁，各有一个石雕狮子。这一对石雕狮子炯炯有神，严肃，庄重。好像在瞪着大眼睛看着我，样子十分吓人。但也表现出故宫严肃的气氛。

走着走着，我们向坤宁宫走去。坤宁宫华丽而又精致。所以呢，明代时这是皇后的寝宫，也是祭祀的主要场所和皇帝大婚时的洞房。坤宁宫里面的饰品几乎一应俱全，每一个都有它的精美之处，把坤宁宫点缀得非同华丽!

是啊!北京的故宫就是如此的美丽!希望你有机会去细细地游赏，里面还有很多华丽、雄伟的宫殿及景观。 故宫的介绍作文二：

今天，我们学校组织去故宫玩。

我们走进大门，“哇，这里可真大啊!”我们首先参观了故宫的建筑结构。观察了一下，故宫的所有宫殿，发现这些宫殿都是沿着南北中轴线排列，并向两旁展开，南北取直，左右对称。这条中轴线不仅贯穿在紫禁城内，而且南达永定门，北到鼓楼几乎贯穿了整个市区，它的气势宏伟，规划严整，极为壮观。

我们从太和殿一直浏览到御花园，真是叹为观止!在宫里，最引人注目的要算是“三大殿”了：太和殿，中和殿，保和殿。它们都建在汉白玉砌成的8米高的台基上，远远望去，犹如神话中的琼楼玉宇。第一座太和殿是皇帝举行大典的地方，人们称它为“金銮殿”。中和殿是皇帝去太和殿举行大典时休息的地方;保和殿是每年除夕皇帝赐宴的场所。这仅仅是故宫的建筑，而故宫中的宝物数不胜数……

故宫一游使我流连忘返，故宫的建筑真是个奇迹! 故宫的介绍作文三：

来自世界各地的游客们：

大家好，欢迎来到北京有名的故宫参观。下面，让我来介绍一下故宫吧。

故宫是在清、明两代皇宫的基础上建立起来的综合性博物馆，所以又称故宫博物院，也名“紫禁城”。

大家请看，紫禁城四面环有高10米的城墙和宽52米的护城河，城的南北长961米，东西宽753米，占地面积竟达

到780000米。可见紫禁城是多么雄伟啊!城墙四面各设一座城门，中南面的午门和北面的神武门专供参观者出入。

各位游客，我们现在正式进入城内，请大家不要随手拦扔垃圾，保护环境。看这红墙黄瓦，画栋雕梁，真是金碧辉煌。殿宇楼台，高低错落，就仿若人间仙境。紫禁城北半部是以乾清、交泰、坤宁宫三宫以及东西六宫和御花园为中心，西侧则是皇帝与后妃们居住的地方。整组宫殿布局严谨，秩序井然，普通人民群众更是不能靠近它一步，这更是体现出了皇家的至高无上的权威。

下面请大家自由参观一下整座紫禁城。我的介绍到此结束，谢谢大家对我工作的配合和支持，祝大家旅途愉快。 故宫的介绍作文四：

北京有着许多名胜古迹，而最令人神往、敬畏的地方应该是北京故宫。

北京故宫悠久，自从1420年以来，经历了580多年，至今还矗立在这里，让人为之惊叹!

走进天安门，就是北京故宫了，现在矗立在眼前的就是午门了，它的城墙高约十米，那上面矗立着檐崇楼，在阳光的照耀下闪闪发光，让人眩目。

走进午门，太和门近在眼前，它是外朝三大殿的正门，也是北京故宫内等级最高的门。广场玉带河上，五座内金水桥雕栏玉砌，与太和门交相辉映。

迈出太和门，遥望太和殿，只见汉白玉洁白无瑕，配上代表皇家的红墙、黄瓦，让人觉醒其中。走近了看，三层汉白玉台阶上雕龙刻凤，主殿金碧辉煌，中央放置纯金宝座，宝座上方挂着一块牌匾，上书：“正大光明”四字。宝座两旁放置轩辕镜，殿内以“金砖”铺地，檐角安置十个走兽……使人眼花缭乱。

北京故宫的雄伟壮丽是古代中国经济实力的完美展现，更是祖国劳动人民智慧的结晶!因此，我要自主保护它，不让它受到一丝破坏。 故宫的介绍作文五：

人们都说：“故宫是我国乃至全世界保存得最完善，历史最悠久，最宏伟的一座宫殿。”我们乘着列车来到天安门广场附近，来观赏雄伟的故宫。

我看见过高耸入云的高楼大厦，游览过古色古香的四合院，却从没看见过雄伟壮丽的故宫。故宫的古建筑占地面积真大啊，大得让你辨别不出方向;故宫的古建筑真多啊，多得让你眼花缭乱;故宫的古建筑真宏伟啊，宏伟得令你瞠目结舌，不由地啧啧称赞。是在人群中穿梭，加上夏日的疲劳，那一座座拔地而起的千篇一律的宫殿，和身旁川流不息的游客，误以为自己还在原处。

我看见过现代豪华的设施，欣赏过四合院简朴的摆设，却从来没看见过故宫这样的摆设。故宫里的陈设真精致啊，那门、那屋檐、那龙椅、那……都被雕刻的美仑美奂，栩栩如生，让你对明朝木匠那巧夺天工的手艺惊叹不已。

[介绍故宫的英文作文

What strikes one first in a birds -eye view of Beijing proper is a vast tract of golden roofs flashing brilliantly in the sun with purple walls occasionally emerging amid them and a stretch of luxuriant tree leaves flanking on each side. That is the former Imperial Palace, popularly known as the Forbidden City, from which twenty-four emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties ruled China for some 500 years——from1420 to 1911. The Ming Emperor Yong Le, who usurped the throne from his nephew and made Beijing the capital, ordered its construction, on which approximately 10,000 artists and a million workmen toiled for 14 years from 1406 to 1420. At present, the Palace is an elaborate museum that presents the largest and most complete ensemble of traditional architecture complex and more than 900,000 pieces of court treasures in all dynasties in China.

Located in the center of Beijing, the entire palace area, rectangular in shape and 72 hectares in size, is surrounded by walls ten meters high and a moat 52 meters wide. At each corner of the wall stands a watchtower with a double-eave roof covered with yellow glazed tiles.

The main buildings, the six great halls, one following the other, are set facing south along the central north-south axis from the Meridian Gate, the south entrance, to Shenwumen, the great gate piercing in the north wall. On either side of the palace are many comparatively small buildings. Symmetrically in the northeastern section lie the six Eastern Palaces and in the northwestern section the six Western Palaces. The Palace area is divided into two parts: the Outer Court and the Inner Palace. The former consists of the first three main halls, where the emperor received his courtiers and conducted grand ceremonies, while the latter was the living quarters for the imperial residence. At the rear of the Inner Palace is the Imperial Garden where the emperor and his family sought recreation.

The main entrance to the Palace is the Meridian Gate(1), which was so named because the emperor considered himself the "Son of the Heaven" and the Palace the center of the universe, hence the north-south axis as the Meridian line going right through the Palace. The gate is crowned with five towers, commonly known as the Five-Phoenix Towers(2), which were installed with drums and bells. When the emperor went to the Temple of Heaven, bells were struck to mark this important occasion. When he went to the Ancestral Temple, it was the drums that were beaten to publicize the event.

Beyond the Meridian Gate unfolds a vast courtyard across which the Inner Golden Water River runs from east to west. The river is spanned by five bridges, which were supposed to be symbols of the five virtues preached by Confucius——benevolence, righteousness, rites, intelligence, and fidelity(3).

At the north end of the courtyard is a three-tiered white marble terrace, seven meters above the ground, on which, one after another, stand three majestic halls; the Hall of Supreme Harmony(4), the Hall of Complete Harmony(5), and the Hall of Preserving Harmony(6).

The Hall of Supreme Harmony, rectangular in shape, 27 meters in height, 2,300 square meters in area, is the grandest and most important hall in the Palace complex. It is also Chinas largest existing palace of wood structure and an outstanding example of brilliant color combinations. This hall used to be the throne hall for ceremonies which marked great occasions: the Winter Solstice, the Spring Festival, the emperors birthday and enthronement, and the dispatch of generals to battles, etc. On such occasions there would be an imperial guard of honor standing in front of the Hall that extended all the way to the Meridian gate.

On the north face of the hall in the center of four coiled-golden dragon columns is the "Golden Throne", which was carved out of sandalwood. The throne rests on a two-meter-high platform with a screen behind it. In front of it, to the left and right, stand ornamental cranes, incense burners and other ornaments. The dragon columns entwined with golden dragons measure one meter in diameter. The throne itself, the platform and the screen are all carved with dragon designs. High above the throne is a color-painted coffered ceiling which changes in shape from square to octagonal to circular as it ascends layer upon layer. The utmost central vault is carved with the gilded design of a dragon toying with pearls. when the Emperor mounted the throne, gold bells and jade chimes sounded from the gallery, and clouds of incense rose from the bronze cranes and tortoises and tripods outside the hall on the terrace. The aura of majesty created by the imposing architecture and solemn ritual were designed to keep the subjects of the "Son of the Heaven" in awe and reverence.

The Hall of Complete Harmony is smaller and square with windows on all sides. Here the emperor rehearsed for ceremonies. It is followed by the Hall of Preserving Harmony in which banquets and imperial examinations were held.

Behind the Hall of Preserving Harmony lies a huge marble ramp with intertwining clouds and dragons carved in relief. The slab, about 6.5 meters long, 3 meters wide and 250 tons in weight, is placed between two flights of marble steps along which the emperors sedan was carried up or down the terrace. It is the largest piece of stone carving in the Imperial Palace. Quarried in the mountains scores of kilometers southwest of Beijing, this gigantic stone was moved to the city by sliding it over a specially paved ice road in winter. To provide enough water to build the ice road, wells were sunk at very 500 meters along the way.

The three halls of the Inner Palace are replicas of the three halls in the front, but smaller in size. They are the Palace of Heavenly Purity(7), the Hall of Union(8), and the Palace of Earthly Tranquility(9).

The Palace of Heavenly Purity was once the residence of the Ming emperors and the first two of the Qing emperors. Then the Qing Emperor Yong Zheng moved his residence to the Palace of Mental Cultivation and turned it into an audience hall to receive foreign envoys and handled the state affairs. The promotion and demotion of officials were also decided in this hall. After the emperors death his coffin was placed here for a 49-day period of mourning.

The Palace of Union was the empresss throne room and the Hall of Earthly Tranquility, once a private living room for the empress, was partitioned. The west chamber served religious purposes and the east one was the bridal chamber where the newly married emperor and empress spent their first two nights after their wedding.

The Imperial Garden was laid out during the early Ming dynasty. Hundreds of pines and cypresses offer shade while various flowers give colors to the garden all year round and fill the air with their fragrance. In he center of the garden is the Hall of Imperial Peace, a Daoist temple, with a flat roof slightly sloping down to the four eaves. This type of roof was rare in ancient Chinese architecture. In he northeastern corner of the garden is a rock hill, known as the Hill of the Piled-up Wonders, which is topped with a pavilion. At the foot of the hill are two fountains which jet two columns of water high into the air. It is said that on the ninth night of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the empress would mound the hill to enjoy the autumn scene. It is also believed that climbing to a high place on that day would keep people safe from contagious diseases.

The six Western Palaces were residences for empresses and concubines. They are kept in their original way for show. The six Eastern Palaces were the residences for them too. But now they serve as special museums: the Museum of Bronze, the Museum of Porcelain and the Museum of Arts and Crafts of the Ming and Qing dynasties. In the northeastern-most section of the Inner Palace are the Museum of Traditional Chinese Paintings and the Museum of Jewelry and Treasures where rare pieces of imperial collections are on display.

Now the Forbidden City is no longer forbidding, but inviting. A visit to the Palace Museum will enrich the visitors knowledge of history, economy, politics, arts as well as architecture in ancient China.

Lying at the center of Beijing， the Forbidden City， called Gu Gong， in Chinese， was the imperial palace during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Now known as the Palace Museum， it is to the north of Tiananmen Square. Rectangular in shape， it is the world‘s largest palace complex and covers 74 hectares. Surrounded by a six meter deep moat and a ten meter high wall are 9，999 buildings. The wall has a gate on each side. Opposite the Tiananmen Gate， to the north is the Gate of Devine Might (Shenwumen)， which faces Jingshan Park. The distance between these two gates is 960 meters， while the distance between the gates in the east and west walls is 750 meters. There are unique and delicately structured towers on each of the four corners of the curtain wall. These afford views over both the palace and the city outside. The Forbidden City is divided into two parts. The southern section， or the Outer Court was where the emperor exercised his supreme power over the nation. The northern section， or the Inner Court was where he lived with his royal family. Until 1924 when the last emperor of China was driven from the Inner Court， fourteen emperors of the Ming dynasty and ten emperors of the Qing dynasty had reigned here. Having been the imperial palace for some five centuries， it houses numerous rare treasures and curiosities. Listed by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage Site in 1987， the Palace Museum is now one of the most popular tourist attractions world wide.

Construction of the palace complex began in 1407， the 5th year of the Yongle reign of the third emperor of the Ming dynasty. It was completed fourteen years later in 1420. It was said that a million workers including one hundred thousand artisans were driven into the long-term hard labor. Stone needed was quarried from Fangshan， a suburb of Beijing. It was said a well was dug every fifty meters along the road in order to pour water onto the road in winter to slide huge stones on ice into the city. Huge amounts of timber and other materials were freighted from faraway provinces. Ancient Chinese people displayed their very considerable skills in building the Forbidden City. Take the grand red city wall for example. It has an 8.6 meters wide base reducing to 6.66 meters wide at the top. The angular shape of the wall totally frustrates attempts to climb it. The bricks were made from white lime and glutinous rice while the cement is made from glutinous rice and egg whites. These incredible materials make the wall extraordinarily strong.

Since yellow is the symbol of the royal family， it is the dominant color in the Forbidden City. Roofs are built with yellow glazed tiles; decorations in the palace are painted yellow; even the bricks on the ground are made yellow by a special process. However， there is one exception. Wenyuange， the royal library， has a black roof. The reason is that it was believed black represented water then and could extinguish fire.

Nowadays， the Forbidden City， or the Palace Museum is open to tourists from home and abroad. Splendid painted decoration on these royal architectural wonders， the grand and deluxe halls， with their surprisingly magnificent treasures will certainly satisfy "modern civilians".

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am pleased to serve as your guide today。

This is the palace museum; also know as the Purple Forbidden City。 It is the largest and most well reserved imperial residence in China today。 Under Ming Emperor Yongle， construction began in 1406。 It took 14years to build the Forbidden City。 The first ruler who actually lived here was Ming Emperor Zhudi。 For five centuries thereafter， it continued to be the residence of23 successive emperors until 1911 when Qing Emperor Puyi was forced to abdicate the throne。 In 1987， the United Nations Educational， Scientific and Cultural Organization recognized the Forbidden City was a world cultural legacy。

It is believed that the Palace Museum， or Zi Jin Cheng (Purple Forbidden City)， got its name from astronomy folklore， The ancient astronomers divided the constellations into groups and centered them around the Ziwei Yuan (North Star) 。 The constellation containing the North Star was called the Constellation of Heavenly God and star itself was called the purple palace。 Because the emperor was supposedly the son of the heavenly gods， his central and dominant position would be further highlighted the use of the word purple in the name of his residence。 In folklore， the term “an eastern purple cloud is drifting” became a metaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud was seen drifting eastward immediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher， LaoZi， to the Hanghu Pass。 Here， purple is associated with auspicious developments。 The word jin (forbidden) is self-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-limits to ordinary people。

The red and yellow used on the palace walls and roofs are also symbolic。 Red represents happiness， good fortune and wealth。 Yellow is the color of the earth on the Loess Plateau， the original home of the Chinese people。 Yellow became an imperial color during the Tang dynasty， when only members of the royal family were allowed to wear it and use it in their architecture。

The Forbidden City is rectangular in shape。 It is 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meter wide from east west。 It has 9，900 rooms under a total roof area 150，000 square meters。 A 52-meter-wide-moat encircles a 9。 9-meter—high wall which encloses the complex。 Octagon —shaped turrets rest on the four corners of the wall。 There are four entrances into the city: the Meridian Gate to the south， the Shenwu Gate (Gate of Military Prowess) to the north， and the Xihua Gate (Gate of military Prowess) to the north， and the Xihua Gate (Western Flowery Gate ) to the west， the Donghua (Eastern Flowery Gate) to the east。

Manpower and materials throughout the country were used to build the Forbidden City。 A total of 230，000 artisans and one million laborers were employed。 Marble was quarried from fangshan Country Mount Pan in Jixian County in Hebei Province。 Granite was quarried in Quyang County in Hebei Province。 Paving blocks were fired in kilns in Suzhou in southern China。 Bricks and scarlet pigmentation used on the palatial walls came from linqing in Shandong Province。 Timber was cut， processed and hauled from the northwestern and southern regions。

“御花园”芳草青青，花姿各异特别是大门处的两棵百年大树，互相缠绕在一起真是大地造物，无奇不有啊！一处凉亭建立在陡石假山之上，据说这是一位历代皇帝在此上吊自刎的地方。整个故宫有72万平方米，来旅游就一定要有选择的观赏。我就游览到这，如果你有好奇心不妨亲自去游览一番。

大家好，我是你们的导游曹逸宇。今天就由我来带领你们畅游故宫，进入这座传奇建筑。

进入午门，走过金水桥，穿过太和门，一座宫殿亮在眼前。你们知道现在我们看到的是什么宫殿吗？对了，就是太和殿。金黄的砖瓦在阳光底下闪闪发光，让人不能直视，那朱红的宫墙也很引人注目，红艳艳的，十分好看。但这还不是最绝的。如果你靠近窗边，还会发现里面有许多桌椅。现在，就让我们走过去吧！

到了窗边，透过微弱的亮光往里看，里面呈现出虽阴暗，但又能想象出当年繁荣的景象。桌子、椅子、床等各种木制品一俱齐全。来，让我们仔细瞅瞅这些家具，颇有清代风格。雕刻师们精心雕刻出了这些花纹。有的像一条龙，有的像两卷大浪，还有的像一只凤凰……另外，有一个地方你肯定没有想到，在故宫里，唯有太和殿有“地暖”，这个“地暖”就在太和殿的地下一层，它是用柴火所烧，在寒冷的冬天，不让皇帝和皇后饱受严寒。

现在，让我们再走下楼梯，再次观看整个太和殿。你会发现支撑整个太和殿的大木柱有好多根，你知道有多少根吗？让我来告诉你吧，共有72根，其中有6根还是沥粉金漆的蟠龙柱呢！你知道吗？柱子的多少决定了宫殿的等级，而太和殿的柱子数量是最多的，也就是说，太和殿在故宫里的等级是最高的。

我们继续往前走，穿过几个宫殿，就来到了御花园。比起那些宫殿，就有着强烈对比。请游客们在这里，不要乱扔垃圾，破坏了这一片葱绿哦！大家先向右看，看到了那棵树吗？长得是不是很奇怪呀？确实，它的树干从两个地方长出来，最后在准备长叶的地方又合并在一起，显然是经历了许多年的风雨，然后在某一年，树干再也不能承受风雨的力量了，慢慢破损了，最后形成了一个大洞。

在离出口仅有几米远的地方，有一座大假山。这座大假山有足足6米多高，宽也有7——8米长，很是漂亮。

前面就是出口，神武门了，大家玩得愉快吗？下次再来哦！

Octagon —shaped turrets rest on the four corners of the wall. There are four entrances into the city: the Meridian Gate to the south, the Shenwu Gate(Gate of Military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate(Gate of military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate(Western Flowery Gate )to the west ,the Donghua (Eastern Flowery Gate) to the east.

Paving blocks were fired in kilns in Suzhou in southern China. Bricks and scarlet pigmentation used on the palatial walls came from linqing in Shandong Province .Timber was cut ,processed and hauled from the northwestern and southern regions.

The structure in front of us is the Meridian Gate. It is the main entrance to the forbidden City. It is also knows as Wufenglou(Five-Phoenix Tower). Ming emperors held lavish banquets here on the 15th day of the first month of the Chinese lunar year in hornor of their counties .They also used this place for punishing officals by flogging them with sticks.

Qing emperors used this building to announce the beginning of the new year. Qing Emperor Qianglong changed the original name of this announcement ceremony from ban li(announcement of calendar)to ban shou(announcement of new moon )to avoid coincidental association with another Emperor` s name, Hongli, which was considered a taboo at that time. Qing Dynasty emperors also used this place to hold audience and for other important ceremonies. For example,when the imperial army returned victoriously from the battlefield ,it was here that the Emperor presided over the ceremony to accept prisoners of war.

(After entering the Meridian Gate and standing in front of the Five Marble Bridges on Golden Water River)

Now we are inside the Forbidden City.Before we start our tour, I would like to briefly introduce you to the architectural patterns befour us .To complete this solemn, magnificent and palatial complex, a variety of buildings were arranged on a north-south axis, and 8-kilometer-long invisible line that has become an inseparable part of the City of Beijing. The Forbidden City covers roughly one –third of this central axis. Most of the important building in the Forbidden City weree arranged along this line. The design and arrangement of the palaces reflect the solemn dignity of the royal court and rigidly –stratified feudal system.

The Forbidden City is divided into an outer and an inner count.We are now standing on the southernmost part of the outer count. In front of us lies the Gate of supreme Harmony .The gate is guarded by a pair of bronze lions ,symbolizing imperial power and dignity. The lions were the most exquisite and biggest of its kind. The one on the east playing with a ball is a male, and ball is said to represent state unity. The other one is a female. Underneath one of its fore claws is a cub that is considered to be a symbol of perpetual imperial succession. The winding brook before us is the Golden Water River. It functions both as decoration and fire control .The five bridges spanning the river represent the five virtues preached by Confucius :benevolence, righteousness, rites, intellence and fidelity. The river takes the shape of a bow and the north-south axis is its arrow. This was meant to show that the Emperors ruled the country on behalf of God.
