"The Wenyuan Pavilion here was first built in the Qianlong period. The Wenyuan Pavilion in the early Ming Dynasty was destroyed in the war at the end of the Ming Dynasty. It was originally used for the storage of the 'Siku Quanshu'. The pavilion was imitated from Ningbo fan. Shitianyi Pavilion..."

When they arrived here, Yang Chen and the others were stopped, and they could only watch in the outer hall, because there were many ancient books inside, in order to avoid artificial damage, under normal circumstances, tourists were not allowed to enter.

"The Grandpa Li we met just now is a master of restoration of cultural relics. Many of the rare copies here were restored by Grandpa Li."

"There's nothing to see here. Let's go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. It's also commonly known as the Hall of Golden Luan, where the emperor held the Great Court Meeting."

Yang Chen nodded, followed Song Xue with He Chaoqiong, went straight out of the Wenhua Palace, and asked casually, "Sister Song, can people come in to take pictures in this Forbidden City?"

"Shooting?" Song Xue glanced at the camera in Yang Chen's hand, as if to say, 'Aren't you taking pictures now? '

Seeing Song Xue's small movements, Yang Chen immediately explained: "I didn't mean to take pictures, I meant to shoot a documentary, to capture the entire Forbidden City."

"I have a TV station in Xiangjiang, and right now there is a food show, which is dedicated to introducing traditional food from various countries and regions. There are a variety of food in our country's major cuisines.

Before long, I will come here to shoot. Before that, I want to shoot a documentary. The Forbidden City is a part of the symbol of our country's cultural heritage. It is undoubtedly the best to start with it. "

After Song Xue heard this, she felt a little embarrassed: "I really can't answer this for you, but I can ask the management of the museum for you. If the management agrees, it should be fine."

Yang Chen didn't make things difficult for Song Xue either, after all, taking photos is very different from making documentaries, without the consent of other museums, naturally they can't shoot casually.

Of course, these are small things.

As a compatriot in Xiangjiang, he holds a TV station at home, and the museum will definitely not refuse such cultural propaganda that can expand the positive image of the country.

Food is also part of a nation's culture.

Now ATV’s food programs have been introduced by TV stations in many Asian countries. There are not many entertainment programs these days. Like Cai Lan, she brings female stars and eats and drinks all over the world every day. This makes many people want to go abroad to learn about other countries. People, please pay attention.

Food culture, no matter where it is placed, is the focus of people's attention, especially the Chinese who inherit Chinese culture.

Friends haven't got together for a long time, and when we meet, the main line of what we say can never be separated from the following few sentences.

"Have you eaten?" "What do you want to eat?" "Where are you going to eat?"

Eating is a theme that human beings can never do without.

As the nation in the world that knows how to eat, is able to eat, and knows how to eat.

No food program on ATV would be complete without the outback.

Chapter 619 The Emperor's Dragon Chair

The Hall of Supreme Harmony is the largest and highest-level building in the Palace Museum. It is eleven rooms wide and five rooms deep, 64 meters long and 37 meters wide, with a construction area of ​​more than 300 square meters and a height of nearly 27 meters. Together with the base, it is 35 meters high.

There is a wide platform in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, called Danbi, commonly known as the platform, on which there are sundials, one for Jialiang, one pair of bronze tortoises, one pair of bronze cranes, and eighteen bronze tripods.

Turtles and cranes are symbols of longevity, sundials are ancient timers, and Jiagui is an ancient standard measuring instrument. Both are symbols of imperial power.

His Highness is an eight-meter three-story white marble base surrounded by railings. Under the railings are stone-carved faucets for drainage. During the rainy season, it can present the spectacle of thousands of dragons spitting water.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony, with its high architectural regulations and exquisite decoration techniques, ranks first among ancient buildings and is unique in the history of palace architecture. It shows the supremacy of the feudal dynasty and the status of imperial power.

However, when Yang Chen arrived at the back of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, there was a huge cute contrast between what he saw and the splendor he imagined.

In later generations, on TV and in movies, the Golden Luan Palace is mostly resplendent and resplendent, which makes people's eyes shine.

But now, not only because of the lighting problem, but also a faint smell of decay in the hall, which made Yang Chen frowned.

"The Hall of Supreme Harmony is supported by a total of 72 large columns, of which the diameter of the top beam and large column is about 12 meters, and the height is [-] meters.

The pillars used in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Ming Dynasty were collected from nanmu in Sichuan, Guang, Yun, Gui and other places.

After the reconstruction in the Qing Dynasty, the pillars of the Hall of Supreme Harmony were made of pine wood from Dongsan Province. After two or three hundred years, these pine woods have begun to decay. "

Seeing that every pillar in the main hall is surrounded by fences to prevent visitors from approaching, Yang Chen thought to himself that the Hall of Supreme Harmony in later generations must have undergone renovations, but he didn't know exactly when.

"Is this the dragon chair?" He Chaoqiong walked up the steps cautiously and took a close look at the dragon chair on the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Because in many movies and TV shows in Xiangjiang, the emperor's dragon chair has a great future, and some are even just a wooden chair.

Therefore, as soon as He Chaoqiong came in, he was very interested in the dragon chair in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

I don't know why, seeing this dragon chair, He Chaoqiong wanted to sit on it and try the feeling, "Sister Song, can I sit on it and take a photo?"

Seeing that she was happy, Song Xue couldn't refuse. She walked up to the guard in the main hall and said something. Finally, the guard walked up and put away the warning lines around the dragon chair.

The dragon chair is not a destructible item, as long as you are careful, tourists are still allowed to take pictures.

Song Xue walked to Yang Chen's side, and said with a smile: "Mr. Yang, you go up too, I'll take a photo for you as a souvenir."

Yang Chen listened and said with a smile: "Well, I have never sat on this emperor's dragon chair in my life, so I'll go up and try it."

Having the opportunity to sit on the dragon chair that the emperor used to sit on, Yang Chen naturally gave it a try, took off the military coat on his body and handed it to the military officer on the side, Yang Chen walked up the steps with small steps.

Seeing that Yang Chen was wearing a Chinese tunic suit, looking straight and handsome, He Chaoqiong quickly stopped, "Wait a minute, I'll take off my coat first."

He Chaoqiong then took off the coat and handed it to Xiao Lian, leaning against Yang Chen's side, her waist was also straight, her serious expression was learned from the queen's honor in the TV series.

After taking several pictures in a row, Song Xue raised her hand, "Okay, you all get up, stand a little forward, and I'll take two more pictures for you."

The two subconsciously got up from the dragon chair. The dragon chair was really not warm. They let Song Xue take pictures all the way, completing the magnificent transformation from commoner to emperor and then to commoner.

After the photo was taken, He Chaoqiong quickly put on his coat, shrunk his head, and said with an unsatisfactory expression: "It's a pity, it would be great if there were costumes."

Seeing her appearance, Yang Chen couldn't help laughing, "Are you thinking about being a queen, or are you quite Wu Zetian?"

"Is it okay to think about it?" He Chaoqiong said with a smile.

"Don't dream, you don't have that life."

"Humph" He Chaoqiong hummed twice unconvinced.

After strolling around, Yang Chen pointed to some old beams and pillars, and asked in a low voice: "Sister Song, these pillars shouldn't fall down, right?"

Song Xue couldn't laugh or cry when she heard this, and patiently explained: "For the time being, it will definitely not fall, even in a few decades, as long as there are no major accidents, everything will be fine.

The Palace Museum has actually undergone several renovations, but the Hall of Supreme Harmony is different from other palaces. The renovation is too difficult and expensive, so it has been delayed. "

Looking at the large pillar with a diameter of one meter, He Chaoqiong swallowed his saliva, nodded and said, "Yes, such a large pillar is hard to find anywhere."

Song Xue: "I'll take you to Qianqing Palace and Yangxin Palace to have a look, where the emperor goes to court every day."

"Uh..." He Chaoqiong blinked, and asked a little puzzled, "Isn't the emperor going to court here every day?"

"It's not." Song Xue shook her head.

Then he explained: "Many people think that the Hall of Supreme Harmony is the place where the emperor goes to court every day, but in fact it is not, it is just a place where the emperor holds important ceremonies.
