On September 10th, the exhibition "Danchen forever-Six hundred years of the Forbidden City" opened at the Meridian Gate of the Palace Museum, displaying more than 450 pieces of cultural relics and historical photos.
The exhibition is located in the three exhibition halls of the West Yanchi Tower, the Main Tower and the East Yanchi Tower in the entire Meridian area, corresponding to the three historical periods of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, and the modern and contemporary times, reflecting the "gong and the city as one" and "the capacity is great". The three main themes of "Life is endless", at the same time introduces the planning, layout, architecture, palace life of the Forbidden City, as well as the general situation of architectural renovation and protection with 18 historical nodes.
Among them, cultural relics such as the talisman plate and five offerings of the Hall of Yangxin, and the gold and silver lacquer gauze in the south of the Fuwang Pavilion are all exhibited for the first time.
Wang Xudong, the director of the Palace Museum, said that the completion of the Forbidden City is not only a manifestation of the will of the country, but also the crystallization of the wisdom of working people from different regions and different nationalities. It is a master of ancient Chinese architectural concepts.
I hope that through this exhibition, the audience can have a deeper and comprehensive understanding of the former Forbidden City.
It is reported that the exhibition will last until November 15.
