Our Chinese history and culture are broad and profound, after thousands of years of feudal dynasties, when it comes to dynasties, we should be impressed by the Qing Dynasty, after all, the end of this dynasty, but also the end of our feudal thinking, slowly towards a free and democratic society, but in the late Qing Dynasty, the blow to us was really very big!
On August 14, 1900, the coalition army captured the city of Beijing, Empress Dowager Cixi took the Guangxu Emperor and others to flee into the wilderness, a year after Cixi fled, the Japanese architect Itochu came to Beijing, he has a deep yearning for the building since he was a child, so this time he also used the "investigation of the Forbidden City as the reason", came to the Forbidden City, took a lot of precious old photos, let us see the most original photos, really very real.
Take a look at the wooden gold lacquer pedestal in the Taihe Hall, it is reasonable to say that this is the real "foot of the son of heaven", but unlike the TV series, it has long been in ruins, the handover of the railing and the foot has long been damaged, and the so-called royal dignity has long been gone.
Looking at this photo again, you will find that the Forbidden City has no master, and it is not as prosperous as before, a lonely feeling, especially the weeds in front of the city gate, are already very deep, the doors and windows are damaged, and no one has come to clean up everything like this.
