World's Largest Palace Museum

Advert


It covers an area of 720000 square meters (961 meters long and 753 meters wide), a building area of about 150000 square meters, an area of 720000 square meters, and a total of 1 million migrant workers. It has been built for 14 years, with 9999.5 houses.
It's 600 years since the Forbidden City was built this year. The world's largest "Palace Museum" not only tells the story of its 600 years, but also contains the history of China.
Today's Forbidden City has long been covered with ice and snow. In the frozen world, it solidified the time and space of China.
  • Ancient poem: there is a plum flower in the corner of the wall, which blossoms in the cold winter alone(墙角一枝梅，凌寒独自开)
The Palace Museum is not only the largest and most complete wood structure palace complex in the world, but also has a large number of unique collections. According to the statistics of the Palace Museum, there are 1807558 collections (sets), of which 93.2% are precious cultural relics.
This kind of inverted pyramid collection structure, with precious cultural relics as the main part and common cultural relics as the auxiliary, is rare in museums all over the country and even in the world.
You can not only see the pottery pot of Hongshan culture more than 4000 years ago.
You can also see the bronze treasure of more than 3000 years ago—— the XuYa square bottle.
Pingfu calligraphy, which has a history of more than 1700 years, is a work handed down by Lu Ji, a calligrapher of Jin Dynasty. With a free and easy style, it has written this work which occupies an important position in the history of Chinese calligraphy.
Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival is one of the ten famous paintings handed down in China. It is the only surviving masterpiece of Zhang Zeduan, a painter of the Northern Song Dynasty. It belongs to national treasure level cultural relics and is now stored in the Palace Museum in Beijing.
In the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival picture was 24.8 cm wide and 528.7 cm long. In the form of a long scroll, the work vividly recorded the city appearance of DongJing, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty (also known as Bianjing, now Kaifeng, Henan Province) in the 12th century, the living conditions of people of all walks of life at that time, a large number of people and rich activities. It was a witness to the prosperity of Bianjing, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, and also a witness to the prosperity of the Northern Song Dynasty The economic situation of song city.
The axis of the painting of plum and magpie by Shen Zifan is a representative work of weaving and embroidery in the imperial palace. The warp density of the silk thread used is 20 pieces / cm, and the weft density is 44-46 pieces / cm. This tapestry is a good representation of the original painting, which is sparse and simple, vivid, clear and elegant. Using embroidery to embroider the vivid magpie and bird on the silk is the crystallization of the art of tapestry.
This gorgeous crown of empress is the only one of the Empresses of Ming Dynasty
Exquisite Chinese Bonsai made of gold, wood and jade.
Because Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty liked the technology of clocks and watches. This "automatic clock" came to China from the West in the 18th century. You can see a European gentleman in the clock writing the calligraphy works of "people in eight directions submit to the Qing Dynasty, envoys from nine countries come to see the emperor" (八方向化，九土来王).
There are even perfume bottles in Austria.
Of course, there are countless treasures of the most beautiful art. They come from different countries, different times, and gather in the Forbidden City to tell about their past and present lives.
The vast history of China is perfectly reflected in the Forbidden City, the largest palace museum. It is ancient, profound, as long as thousands of years of accumulation makes it charming and thick.
The Forbidden City, the great palace, witnessed the decline of the ancient east from the strong, but it still objectively recorded this history, a history of the country in which it lived.
Today's Forbidden City only reveals its multifaceted side. Behind the distant time and space, there are still countless miracles waiting for modern people to explore.
On the occasion of the 600th birthday of the Forbidden City, I wish the Forbidden City can continue to inherit Chinese civilization and attract people from all countries to learn about China's history.

Annara Mundu The medieval undergarments of women in Kerala, India

Image
Until about fifty years ago, most of the women of present-day Kerala in India used to wear undergarments called  onnara mundu  that literally translates to ‘one and a half a loincloth’. This was essentially a loincloth made of thinner cotton fabric and tied in a particular fashion. There used to be a little function for young girls on the threshold of puberty to move from a  konakam  or loincloth to the more sophisticated and feminine  onnara mundu . It was one of our rites of passage. The  onnara mundu  did for the waist what the corset did for the upper body for women in the West. The upper portion of the body was bare and so nobody really cared how ‘stuff’ grew :P All the focus was on the waist and downward. Hence the importance of the  onnara mundu.  It was tied very tightly around the growing waists of the girls to give them the trademark South Indian body shape as they grew older. But due to the fabric, it was very comfortable to wear and gave the wearer a sense of modesty. Let’s

Largest Snakes in History

Largest Snakes in History Humans have an innate fear of snakes. Ophidiophobia is one of the most common phobias in the world, and studies have shown that most primates are genetically wired to detect snakes rapidly. Prehistory is writhing with snakes, but not just little ones - some were true giants. Everyone talks about  Titanoboa cerrejonensis.  I tend to refrain from writing about famous, popular fossil taxa, but it would be wrong to exclude it from this answer. So,  Titanoboa  was 12.8 metres long, a ton in weight, and commonly cited as the largest snake in history. To at least bring something new to the table, I should mention that  studies  have suggested that  Titanoboa  was more of a piscivore (fish-eater) than a megafauna-killer. Perhaps the snake was in fact a gentle giant? Before the discovery of  Titanoboa,  the title of largest snake went to a different species -  Gigantophis garstini . It lived about 20 million years after  Titanoboa , in the Eocene, being found in Africa

THE WHITE MUSLIMS - A LARGE GROUP SIMPLY NEGLECTED Whites and Muslims are always 2 different groups in the eyes of many westerners. But there are close to 100-150 million white Muslims in the broader description of the white race. and even in the most conservative definition of "white", there are close to at least 40-50 Million Muslims. Chechen Muslim insurgents who fought against Russia for independence There are the obvious white Muslims who live in Europe or on the edge of the continent in countries like Bosnia, Albania, Kosovo, Bulgaria, Russia and Turkey. The Definition of the White race has always been in debate since the formation of USA. America Described "anyone with middle eastern, European or North African Descent as white"  The middle east obviously has people who could fit the visible test of being white but then there are also quite a number of middle easterners who clearly look nothing like white. But despite the American c
