描写北京故宫的英语作文(最新20篇)

盼星星，盼月亮，我终于盼到了去北京玩的这一天。我高兴地睡不着觉，因为这是我梦寐以求的愿望可算要实现了。

今天的主角是紫荆城，也就是故宫，换句话说我们要去皇宫转转。我来带你们去转吧！

走进故宫大门，人山人海，但丝毫不影响我浏览故宫的好心情。故宫我能用五个字形容——大，雄伟、壮观！

首先我们走入午门，爸爸说，古代有句推出午门斩首指的就是这里，哇，这是古代杀人的地方，今天还有那么多人来看！走过午门，前面是一座由汉白玉组成的、华美的、弓形的，这就是我在电视上经常看到的金水桥。

然后我们就走进太和殿，太和殿又叫金銮殿，爸爸说，太和殿是古代重大活动的场所，如：皇帝登基、结婚、派将士出征等。难怪那么雄伟、庄严。

走着走着，我忽然发现，有一个肚皮很大、两耳处还挟着兽面铜环的大缸。我连忙走上前，摸着光溜溜的大缸，好奇地问爸爸、妈妈：这个大缸是干吗的，是不是装水的？这个大缸叫‘门海’，又叫‘太平缸’，它是救火用的，故宫里这样的大小缸共有308口呢。

我们聊着，玩闹着，不知不觉中就来到了御花园。好大的花园呀！园内，有假山、有亭台楼阁，还有奇异的石头，松柏青青翠翠。我还看见了一颗高大的连体树，御花园好美！

今天游故宫，不仅让我很开心，还增长了许多知识，虽然很累，但是是很充实的一天。

[描写故宫的作文5篇

北京有一座城中之城,这就是举世闻名的紫禁城,现在人们叫它故宫.故宫曾居住过24个皇帝,是明、清两代皇帝居住的地方,有五百多年历史.

经过了几小时颠簸,我们终于来到了故宫.抬头一看,那高高的城墙把故宫紧紧围住,为这座雍容华贵的宫殿增添了几分别致.我们来到故宫的第一个门――端门.听说清代时候,文武大臣上朝觐见皇帝时,就要在端门前,把自己的官服整理端正,然后才可进见皇上.所以我很自然地整理了一下自己的衣服和帽子.

一座高高的城墙出现在我们面前,我抬起头仰望,这城墙大概有二十多米高吧,城门上写着两个大字“午门”.据说这是以前人们把犯人拉出午门斩首指的就是这个门,我看着午门两个字心里有点发毛.

我们到了故宫的三大殿第一殿：太和殿,这是当时皇上面见文武大臣的殿.

故宫第二殿是：保和殿,这是皇上亲自监考的地方,谁中了状元就能从这里骑马挂花去游北京长安大街.

最后一个大殿是中和殿,那里是皇上休息的地方.

你们知道整个皇宫有多少间房子吗?然我来告诉你们吧整个故宫有九千九百九十九间半房子.为什么会出现半间房子呢?天上一万间房子,皇帝不敢冒犯,就建了九千九百九十九间半房子.其实,有八千七百零七间,如果每天住一间,住到25岁才能住完.

我们就这样兴趣盎然地沿着故宫中轴线游览着,等走出故宫北门时已是中午了,故宫真大啊!

故宫博物院到处有美丽的景色,说也说不尽,希望有机会你去细细赏玩.

春节让我快乐，为什么呢?让我来告诉你吧!

一大早我就起床了，因为今天是春节，吃完早饭我们就去拜神了，可是我却去小店买炮，买完炮就去拜神，一看到炮我就没心思拜神了，只想着玩。有几个人向我丢了几颗火柴炮，把我吓死了。有些大人拿“天地红”来放，放完的时候，我灵机一动，把炮埋在红红的“天地红”的下面，他们刚走过来，炮就炸开了，他们和我一样，很狼狈。

中午的时候，我还在玩，他们的炮放完了，我有一盒也快放完了，我顺手把一颗炮放进盒子里，丢到地上，他们以为是我掉的，冲过去捡，结果没捡到就炸开了，他们吓了一大跳。

我刚威风了一阵子，一下子就败阵下来，因为他们买完炮回来又来打，我的炮用完了，他们有一个人守在门口，其他人向我丢炮。我躲开了他们的攻击，又想买炮，但是又要吃午饭了，所以我才回家。

下一次，我要和他们比赛呢1

春节那一天真快乐，希望以后也和春节一样快乐，也希望你和我一样快乐，还有很高兴，和愉快。

北京的故宫是一个规模很大的建筑物，共有九千九百九十间半房间。你们看，厉害吧？

我们首先参观了皇帝上早朝的地方——太和殿。在太和殿正中间是九龙至尊的龙椅。里面的物品全部都是用金子做的，豪华极了。在修建太和殿时，没有用到一跟钉，一根矛。全部是用木头穿插搭起来的。你们看古人，厉害吧？

参观完太和殿后，我们去参观了皇帝的寝宫——乾清宫。

乾清宫建于1402年，是明、清两代皇帝的寝宫。据说皇帝与皇后成亲的那天，是在乾清宫就寝的。在乾清宫的右边，摆着一张喜床。在喜床的周围贴满了“喜”字。说不定我们摸摸这个 “喜”字，可以沾一沾皇帝的福气呢！

我最喜欢的地方，要数皇帝的御花园了！为什么？因为皇的御花园里种满了许多美丽的花儿。有如霞似火的杜鹃花，娇媚迷人的红玫瑰，红艳艳的牡丹花，高洁淡雅的菊花，洁白如玉的玉兰花，清香四溢的茉莉花…清香四溢！在这美丽的花儿周围，种了许多树木。然后在花儿的衬托下，御花园增添了几分端庄和典雅。

随后，我们又参观了坤宁宫、养心殿等宫殿故宫的建筑凝聚了古代劳动人民的智慧，是汗水的结晶！

在这金碧辉煌的故宫里，使我收益无穷。故宫啊！我一定会把你的辉煌告诉人们的！

The dog can be more life habits, it especially likes to eat bones and fish. As long as you are gentle to it, it is very good for you.

The Spring Festival I went to grandmas house to play, I entered the courtyard, he saw a small dog. It slants thin, dressed in a black and white "clothes". Short legs, weenose eyes, pianpian nose, small mouth, very cute. My foot into the door, it is "woof, woof, woof..." And called up, like "eat" me. I hurriedly back a few steps, frighten me out in a cold sweat. My grandma picked the dog up, I quickly into the home, the dog is staring at me, is not very friendly.

The dinner, the first thing I eat a bowl of bone for the dog, the dog looked at me, straight wagged his tail, as if to say: "thank you!" It looked down with relish chew up the bones. I thought, this little guy is greedy. You dont want to eat the bones to bite me again! Moments later, the dog bone is finished, licking his mouth with his tongue, my legs with teeth, as if to say: "give me a piece of bone, ok?" Only in my bowl of rice, had to give it a little rice, but he was disappointed to go smell.

After I feed the bones, the puppy is very friendly to me. Once, when I was writing assignments, its familiar voice heard again, running to me, as if to say: "small host, we play together?" He saw that I dont promise, he jumped on the table and smell here, smell there, cant, I have to pack up the book to play with it, it jumped up.

I have a new friend!

狗的生活习性可多了，它特别喜欢吃骨头和鱼。只要你对它温和，它对你非常好。

春节我去奶奶家玩，我一进大院，就看见一只小花狗。它偏瘦，穿着一身黑白相间的“衣服”。短短的腿，黑溜溜的眼睛，扁扁的鼻子，小巧玲珑的嘴，非常可爱。我的脚刚刚迈进门，它就“汪、汪、汪……”地叫了起来，好像要把我“吃”似的。我连忙退了几步，吓得我出了一身冷汗。我奶奶把狗抱起来，我快速进了家，小狗还在盯着我，很不友好的样子。

开饭了，我首先把碗里的骨头给小狗吃，小狗看了看我，直摇尾巴，好像在说：“谢谢你!”它低下头津津有味地啃起了骨头。我心想：这小家伙真贪吃。下次再咬我你别想吃骨头了!不一会儿，小狗的骨头吃完了，用舌头舔舔嘴巴，用牙齿咬住我的裤腿，好像在说：“再给我一块骨头，好吗?”我的碗里只剩下米饭了，只好给它一点米饭，可是，他闻一闻就失望地走了。

从我喂了骨头以后，小狗对我很友好。有一次，我在写作业，它那熟悉的声音又传来了，跑到我身边叫了几声，好像在说：“小主人，我们一起玩行吗?”他见我不答应，就跳在桌子上，闻闻这儿，闻闻那儿，没办法，我只好收起书本与它玩，它高兴的跳了起来。

我有新朋友啦!

我向来就不喜欢春天，尤其是北京的春天。北京的春天各个地方净是土，风把它吹到哪里，哪里就尽是尘埃。要说春天应该是一年中最美的季节，花红柳绿，小草冒出新生命，一切都嫩嫩的，绿绿的，北京的春天则不然。

北京的夏天还算是很热的，但是傍晚时分感觉特别凉爽，春天就没有那么舒服了。春天的天气总是不固定的，俗话说的“春捂秋冻”就是应证这个现象。即使有阳光，也感觉不到温暖。冬天走了，寒冷的天气还没有消失。北京的春天经常是“倒春寒”，让你感觉几天舒适的温暖吧，没过多久就又冷了，让你琢磨不透它的心里。天气总是忽冷忽热，热得让你烦躁，冷得又让你打颤。

人们总把春秋两季作对比，但是真正地比较一下，秋天秋高气爽，空气总是那么清新，景色很美，春天就差远了。都说北京的春天空气不好，到处是土，呼吸仿佛都是那么困难。虽说到了春天，迎春花都悄悄地开了，草也冒出来了，但还是不充满生机，没有韵味。可能是心中的绿色植物在一冬天的枯萎下，还没有复苏的原因吧。

在冬季，北风过后常常能见到几个晴天，春天不行，春季的北风过后，却往往留不住晴天的脚步。春天总是阴暗的，被沙尘笼罩，自然也没有活跃的心情。偶尔出回太阳，也算得上是新鲜事，但是没多长时间又恢复了灰蒙蒙的天儿，总是给你压抑的感觉。你可以毫不客气地用“沉闷”形容北京的春天。就像是小孩要哭，又没哭出来，脸上纠结的表情让你心烦易躁。没有阳光，没有颜色，没有温暖，北京的春天总是暗淡的、冷漠的。

春天是短暂的，在我看来又是多么漫长。什么时候才能熬过这变化莫测的、漫天尘土的、冷清的春天呢？

北京是三朝古都,北京故宫更是历经六百年春秋,从明成祖朱棣到清末代皇帝溥仪,这里是君主制中国政务的最高决策地.每当走进这座古老的宫殿,就隐约有一种肃然和悠远的感觉.

端门向北的甬道尽头,是一座广场,高大雄浑的午门,就矗立在这里.午门是皇宫的正门,进入午门,便置身于太和殿广场,太和殿与中和殿保和殿并称三大殿,雕梁画栋,精美非常.在太阳的映衬下,黄色的琉璃瓦闪烁着碎钻似的光，美不胜收。在这里，能够感觉到皇宫的雄伟与霸气，不禁感叹古代工匠巧夺天工的设计。

乾清门是划分外朝和内廷的界限.走过乾清门,就进入了内廷,也就是"后宫".后宫分为东六宫和西六宫.在过去的数百年中,曾有无数女子成为十二座宫殿的主人.

如今,时过境迁,当人们再走到故宫里时,总会有一种恍如隔世的感觉.当年的皇家禁地,成为了人们的景点,我们可以在这里遥想当年悲欢离合的皇家故事,看到栩栩如生的皇家历史!

Autumn like a magical brush, night effort, put the blue waves rippling forest dyed golden.

Boarded the hills, down the view, eyes are a golden, if carefully observed, they see the golden folder with a piece of red, a piece of green. Red is like agate, green like emerald. As well as the level of the mountain as the mirror of the pond, reflecting the immediate beauty, exceptionally nice.

Down the mountain, the original street vendors selling watermelon stalls disappeared, instead of them are fragrant and crisp big apple and that cracked mouth, broken shells out of the red pomegranate, how to love it! As the saying goes: "a autumn rain a cold, ten autumn rain to wear cotton." Thriller the autumn in the slightest trace of coolness. Look, the pedestrians on the road inadvertently put on a thick sweater, put on a jacket, and some also put on a down jacket it.

In the cropland, the golden corn is like a golden hammer, and there is a piece of sorghum, a red ear, like a shy little girl, with a shiny head shaking, swaying in the breeze, The wind was rustling, and the field was playing a song of nature.

Orchard, bright red persimmon like a small lantern, tall hanging in the branches, branches look about to be broken look, there is a string of purple grapes, hanging crystal dew, like crystal in the sun The light shining under the colorful light. I was infected with this golden autumn, intoxicated.

I love this harvest, golden autumn.

Nowadays, people prefer to travel by air. This is because air travel has

some advantages. First of all, airplane, the miracle created by man, is the

fastest means of transport. It takes the least time for one to travel by air

from one place to another. Besides,travelingby air is convenient and

comfortable. Friendly air hostesses are affectionate and considerate. They look

after passengers all the way to their destinations. In addition, on long

distance flights there are films and music for people to entertain

themselves.

As a popular saying goes, "Everything has two sides." The same is true of

air travel. It has some disadvantages, too. For one thing, air travel is

expensive. The average Chinese are not rich enough to afford expensive air

fares. So they prefer to take trains, which save a lot of money. For another,

although passengers are assured of their safety, they are still worried about it

during the journey because flying always involves more or less risk.

As far I am concerned, the advantages mentioned above exceed the

disadvantages. If I were given choice between traveling by air and by train, I

would certainly prefer the former, especially the long distance journey, because

time is the most important thing I have to take into consideration whatever I

do.

上个星期日，我满怀着兴奋、激动的心情，和爸爸妈妈一起乘着高铁来到北京旅游。

来到北京的第一天，我们首先把目标定在了故宫。于是，我们乘着公交车，兴冲冲地来到了故宫。到故宫来游玩参观的游客真是多啊，到处人山人海。进了午门，我穿过金水桥，来到了故宫最为有名、最为雄伟的太和殿、中和殿、保和殿。保和殿内金碧辉煌，四根粗大的柱子闪烁耀眼金光。前面陈设着左右两头宝象，后面摆放着古代皇帝坐的龙椅。我真想在龙椅上坐一坐啊!

随后，我又看了九龙壁。九龙壁上雕刻着九条龙，它们色泽鲜艳，形态逼真。你瞧，一条黄龙和一条紫龙正在争夺一个火球。它们瞪圆双眼，怒目相视。黄龙叉开四爪，伸出锋利的尖钩;那条紫龙也不甘示弱，张开大嘴，露出了尖利的牙齿。其它几条龙，也各有形态。

我又来到了御花园。御花园是古代皇帝和皇后的游玩休闲场所，里面古木参天，有苍松翠柏、楼阁亭台、水池假山，可美了。此外，我又去了养心殿、储秀宫、皇极殿等其它几个宫殿和陶瓷馆。陶瓷馆里陈列着列朝列代的珍贵瓷器，数不胜数。特别是我看到了用陶瓷做的老虎枕和孩儿枕。难道古代的人们就睡在这种枕头上吗?难道他们睡在这上面，头不会感到痛吗?

可是，故宫实在太大了，我们走了整整一个上午，走得脚底都疼了，却还是没能把整个故宫走完。我只好先回去，把这些落下的遗憾留到下次再来看了。

Autumn with a golden, walked the pace of light quietly came to earth.

Lawn on the maple on the floating a few slices of yellow with red leaves, like many birds in the fly, ah! The original is the autumn leaves to a long wings.

A group of geese fly south, they were made into a "person" word, for a while and made a "one" word. The aunt of the trees on the slope of the maple aunt and aunt Liu Shu took off the green blouse; pine grandpa but still wearing a green blouse; chrysanthemum sister is open to the wind; the ground a small move a piece of West, not as lush as spring, not like summer Green. To look at the city slope of the children are wearing plush clothing.

Orchard, fruitful, Begonia fruit shake it with a small round face, smiled at you nod; red Yan Yan seems to squeeze the fat doll together, unplug the green leaves, laughter to look out ... ...

Wangcheng slope of the foot of the mountain is a golden field, rice yellow, like a layer of golden carpet, peasant uncle wiped sweat, thinking: a year of labor and harvest!

In winter, the cold wind blowing in the face like a knife, large snowflakes up, like a beautiful white butterfly landed on the branch, fall on the grass, how pure. After a while, on the floor like a layer of white carpet, from afar, the pines in the snow stand in the snow, Lamei laughter, kids skiing happily in the snowman, happy, really very happy! But the boa constrictor and hedgehog, they are cold to get into their bed, began to hibernate. Winter is really beautiful, I love the beautiful snowflakes, I love the beautiful winter

There are four seasons in a year.The first season is spring. In spring, almost everything comes back to life. The snow begins to melt, the trees sprout and the grass turns green.Spring is warm so that its a good time to go hiking outdoors. After spring, itis summer. Summer is my favorite season,because I can swim quite often. The third one is autumn. In autumn, the weather is cool and comfortable. Farmers may be the busiest people, because autumn is a time of harvest.Winter is the last season of the year. In winter, the weather is very cold. In the north, it usually snows. Children can play games or make snowmen after snow. It seems very funny. But, because of the cold weather, I dont like winter very much. Whats your favorite season?

一年中有四个季节，第一个季节是春天。春天，万物复苏，雪开始融化，树木开始发芽，小草开始变绿。春天是个暖和的季节，是外出徒步旅行的好时机。春天过后就是夏天。夏天是我最喜欢的季节，因为我可以经常游泳。第三个季节是秋天。秋天，天气凉爽舒适。农民是最忙的人，因为秋天是收获的季节。冬天是一年的最后一个季节。冬天天气很冷，在北方经常下雪。下雪后孩子们喜欢玩游戏或者堆雪人，似乎很好玩。但是，由于天气寒冷，我不是很喜欢冬天。你最喜欢的季节是哪一个呢?

Environmental problems are becoming more and more serious all over the world.With the development of industry and agriculture,cars make great noises and give off poisonous gas.Trees on the hills have been cut down,and waste water is being poured continuously into rivers.Furthermore,wherever we go today,we can find rubbish carelessly disposed.The whole ecological balance of the earth is changing.Massive destruction of environment has brought about negative effects and even poses a great threat to mans existence.

We must face the situation that exists and take actions to solve our environmental problems.For instance,new laws must be passed to place strict control over industrial pollution,the public must receive the education about the hazard of pollution and so on.We hope that all these measures will be effective and bring back a healthful environment.

北京，是一座美丽的城市，是一座拥有悠久历史的城市，也是我一直向往的城市，现在，我终于来到了北京，并且开始了我第一天的旅程——北京故宫一日游。

我们来到了故宫，我放眼望去，故宫的气势蓬勃，金碧辉煌，我恨不得马上就飞进去。我们买好票，走进故宫内。

第一站——太和殿很快就到了，只听那位导游姐姐说：“太和殿是“东方三大殿”之一，中国现存最大的木结构大殿，俗称“金銮殿。位于北京紫禁城南北主轴线的显要位置，明永乐十八年(1420年)建成，称奉天殿。明嘉靖四十一年(1562年)改称皇极殿，清顺治二年(1645年)改今名。建成后屡遭焚毁，多次重建，今殿为清康熙三十四年(1695年)重建后的形制。”“那么，太和殿是干什么的呢?”我问道“太和殿是用来举行各种典礼的场所，明清两朝24个皇帝都在太和殿举行盛大典礼，如皇帝登极即位、皇帝大婚、册立皇后、命将出征，此外每年万寿节、元旦、冬至三大节，皇帝在此接受文武官员的朝贺，并向王公大臣赐宴。”哦——原来是举行大典礼用的。

很快，我们就走到了中和殿，“中和殿是北京故宫外朝三大殿之一，位于紫禁城太和殿、保和殿之间。是皇帝去太和殿大典之前休息的地方，并接受执事官员的朝拜的地方。凡遇皇帝亲祭，如祭天坛、地坛，皇帝于前一日在中和殿阅视祝文，祭先农坛举行亲耕仪式前，还要在此查验种子和农具。中和殿始建于明永乐十八年(1420年)，明初称“华盖殿”，嘉靖时遭遇火灾，重修后改称“中极殿”，现天花内构件上仍遗留有明代“中极殿”墨迹。”

然后我们又来到了保和殿，“保和殿是北京故宫外朝三大殿之一，位于中和殿后，建成于明永乐十八年(1420年)。初名谨身殿，嘉靖时遭火灾，重修后改称建极殿。清顺治二年改为保和殿，其意为“志不外驰恬神守志”。”导游姐姐停了停，说“保和殿于明清两代用途不同，明代大典前皇帝常在此更衣，册立皇后、太子时，皇帝在此殿受贺。清代每年除夕、正月十五，皇帝赐宴外藩、王公及一二品大臣，场面十分壮观。”

……

现在，我们走到了珍妃井边上，传说1900年八国联军打入北京，西太后挟持也曾被单独软禁的光绪皇帝逃往西安，临行前不忘对珍妃下毒手。她命二总管把珍妃从景祺阁后面的小院里放出来，以“洋人入城，免受污辱”为由，命令珍妃投井自尽。二总管外号“催命鬼”，他来到小院，向珍妃传下了西太后的旨意。珍妃不服，吵到西太后那里，大骂一通。西太后恼羞成怒，说：“赶紧给我推到井里!”“催命鬼”把珍妃架到八宝琉璃井，珍妃死死抓住玉石栏杆，没办法，只好把她架到秃井边，使足力气，推了下去，然后又找了块圆石压在上面。办完珍妃的事，西太后出了神武门，奔离西安。珍妃死后，尸体在井里泡了一年多，直到第二年，辛丑回銮后，慈禧太后未免理亏，将珍妃死因归结于崔玉贵逞能将珍妃推进井里，自己只不过当时在气头上。并命人将珍妃尸体打捞上来，安厝于西郊田，后葬西陵之崇陵妃园。瑾妃在井北怀远堂东间立牌以示哀悼。后称此井曰珍妃井，沿称至今。

这就是我第一天的北京旅行记。

A pigeon, oppressed by excessive thirst, saw a goblet of water painted on a signboard.

Not supposing it to be only a picture, she flew towards it with a loud whir and unwittingly dashed against the signboard, jarring herself terribly. Having broken her wings by the blow, she fell to the ground, and was caught by one of the bystanders.

Zeal should not outrun discretion.

有只鸽子口渴得很难受，看见画板上画着一个水瓶，以为是真的。他立刻呼呼地猛飞过去。

不料一头碰撞在画板上，折断了翅膀，摔在地上，被人轻易地捉住了。

这是说，有些人想急于得到所需的东西，一时冲动，草率从事，就会身遭不幸。

北京故宫，旧称为紫禁城，是中国明、清两代24位皇帝的皇宫，它是汉族宫殿建筑之精华，无与伦比的古代建筑杰作，也是世界上现存规模最大、保存最为完整的木质结构的古建筑群。

北京故宫由明成祖朱棣于永乐四年(公元1406年)开始建设，明代永乐十八年(公元1420年)建成。故宫宫殿建筑均是木结构、黄琉璃瓦顶、青白石底座，饰以金碧辉煌的彩画。

故宫位于北京中轴线的中心，占地面积约为72万平方米，建筑面积约为15万平方米。故宫同时还入选了世界文化遗产，全国重点文物保护单位，国家AAAAA级旅游景区。

建筑简介

景山俯瞰故宫故宫始建于公元1406年，1420年基本竣工，是明朝永乐皇帝朱棣始建。宫城周围环绕着高12米，长3400米的宫墙，形式为一长方形城池，墙外有52米宽的护城河环绕，形成一个森严壁垒的城堡。故宫宫殿建筑均是木结构、黄琉璃瓦顶、青白石底座，饰以金碧辉煌的彩画。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。面对北门神武门，有用土、石筑成的景山，满山松柏成林。在整体布局上，景山可说是故宫建筑群的屏障。

依照中国古代星象学说，紫微垣(中国古代星象北天极处一区域)位于中天，乃天帝所居，天人对应，是以故宫又称紫禁城。明代第三位皇帝朱棣在夺取帝位后，决定迁都北京，即开始营造这座宫殿，至明永乐十八年(1420年)落成。1911年，辛亥革命推翻了中国最后的封建帝制--满清，1924宣帝溥仪被逐出宫禁。在这前后五百余年中，共有24位皇帝曾在这里生活居住和对全国实行统治。

建造背景

明朝永乐皇帝(明成祖)--朱棣故宫始建于公元1406年(永乐四年)，1420年(永乐十八年)基本竣工，历时14年，是明成祖朱棣始建，在元大都宫殿的基础上兴建。占地72万平方米(长961米，宽754米)，建筑面积15.5万平方米，是明朝皇帝朱棣始建，设计者蒯祥(1397—1481年，字廷瑞，苏州人)，占地面积78万平方米，用100万民工，共建了14年，有房屋9999间半，实际据1973年专家现场测量故宫有大小院落90多座，房屋有980座，共计8707间(而此“间”并非现今房间之概念，此处“间”指四根房柱所形成的空间)。主要建筑是太和殿、中和殿和保和殿，保和殿也是科举考试举行殿试的地方，殿试的一至三名分别称状元、榜眼、探花。

经历时间

经历了明、清两个王朝，到1912年清帝逊位的约五百年间，历经了明、清两个朝代二十五位有或曾有庙号谥号的皇帝(其中包括二十四位明清史公认的皇帝，以及一位身后尊为诚敬义皇帝，而后却被顺治罢黜的睿忠亲王)。是明清两朝最高统治核心的代名词。明清宫廷五百多年的历史，包含了帝后活动，等级制度、权力斗争、宗教祭祀等。当时普通人连走近紫禁城墙附近的地方都算犯罪。由于明清宫廷是封建制度高度完备的最高统治中心，不寻常的大事，往往都是围绕皇权的传承与安危展开的。如明代正统皇帝复辟的夺门之变、嘉靖皇帝被宫女谋刺的壬寅宫变、万历四十三年梃击太子宫的“梃击案”、泰昌皇帝因服丹丸而死亡的“红丸案”、泰昌帝病死后围绕着新皇帝登极的“移宫”风波。清朝初年诸王大臣为确立皇权的三官庙之争、清末慈禧太后谋取权力的辛酉政变等等。

营建原则

考工记中对宫殿的要求故宫严格地按《周礼·考工记》中“前朝后市，左祖右社”的帝都营建原则建造。整个故宫，在建筑布置上，用形体变化、高低起伏的手法，组合成一个整体。在功能上符合封建社会的等级制度。同时达到左右均衡和形体变化的艺术效果。中国建筑的屋顶形式是丰富多彩的，在故宫建筑中，不同形式的屋顶就有10种以上。以3大殿为例，屋顶各不相同。故宫建筑屋顶满铺各色琉璃瓦件。主要殿座以黄色为主。绿色用于皇子居住区的建筑。其它蓝、紫、黑、翠以及孔雀绿、宝石蓝等五色缤纷的琉璃，多用在花园或琉璃壁上。太和殿屋顶当中正脊的两端各有琉璃吻兽，稳重有力地吞住大脊。吻兽造型优美，是构件又是装饰物。一部分瓦件塑造出龙凤、狮子、海马等立体动物形象，象征吉祥和威严，这些构件在建筑上起了装饰作用。

建筑造型

御花园故宫前部宫殿，当时建筑造型要求宏伟壮丽，庭院明朗开阔，象征封建政权至高无上，太和殿坐落在紫禁城对角线的中心，四角上各有十只吉祥瑞兽，生动形象，栩栩如生。故宫的设计者认为这样以显示皇帝的威严，震慑天下。后部内廷却要求庭院深邃，建筑紧凑，因此东西六宫都自成一体，各有宫门宫墙，相对排列，秩序井然，再配以宫灯联对，绣榻几床，都是体现适应豪华生活需要的布置。内廷之后是宫后苑。后苑里有岁寒不凋的苍松翠柏，有秀石迭砌的玲珑假山，楼、阁、亭、榭掩映其间，幽美而恬静。

故宫宫殿是沿着一条南北向中轴线排列，三大殿、后三宫、御花园都位于这条中轴线上。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、钟楼，贯穿了整个城市，气魄宏伟，规划严整，极为壮观。

现代状况

俯瞰故宫1911年辛亥革命后，紫禁城宫殿本应全部收归国有，但按照那时拟定的《清室优待条件》，逊帝爱新觉罗·溥仪被允许“暂居宫禁”，即“后寝”部分。1924年，冯玉祥发动“北京政变”，将溥仪逐出宫禁，同时成立“清室善后委员会”，接管了故宫。于1925年10月10日宣布故宫博物院正式成立，对外开放。1925年以后紫禁城才被称为“故宫”。随着清王朝的没落，特别是1949年前的38年中，故宫建筑日渐破败，有多处宫殿群倒坍，垃圾成山。

1949年中华人民共和国成立后，1961年，国务院宣布故宫为第一批“全国重点文物保护单位”。从五六十年代起进行了大规模的修整。1987年故宫被联合国教科文组织列为“世界文化遗产”。辟为“故宫博物院”。

Autumn girl walked the pace of light, came to the garden.

Distant, that row of red maple forest, like a red elf in the golden ocean to play. Pick up a maple leaf, its shape like our palm.

Autumn girl out of the maple forest, and came to the flower beds. There is a cluster of string of red, they are neatly arranged team. Like a little dwarf wearing a small red cap, the Little Red Riding Hood off, taste, taste sweet.

The most striking is the chrysanthemum, chrysanthemum varieties are many: white crystal chrysanthemum, golden back red, pineal chrysanthemum, marigold. Big like a ball, a small flower like a beautiful flower bed. They are red like fire, white snow, pink like Xia. My favorite is pineal chrysanthemum, its flower like a small hedgehog rolled into a ball, petals like a small umbrella.

Ah autumn garden really beautiful ah!
