Hello,everyone!Please allow me to express a warm welcome on behalf of Shenyang citizens.I'm with great pleasure to be your tourist guide and from now on I will show you around Shenyang Imperial Palace,shere the founder of Qing Dynasty Nuerhachi and his son Huangtaiji lived.Shenyang Imperial Palace ,Fuling tomb and Zhaoling Tomb made in the early period of Qing Dynasty are the three famous historical sites in Shenyang .
Shenyang Imperial Palace with a history of over 360 years started in 1625 and was roughly accomplished in 1636 during the reign of Nuerhachi and HuangTaiji. After them four emperors of Qing Dynasty had come back from Beijing to this palace for 10 times and enlarged its area and added its buildings.They were Emperor Kangxi,Qianlong,Jiaqing and Daoguang.Therefore,until 1783 the palace was finally finished.
Shenyang Imperial Palace is one of the two royal palaces well kept in China.The other one is Forbidden City in Beijing.Shenyang Imperial Palace was entitled "Historic Culture Relics Preserved Buildings" in 1961 by the State Council.This palace is an emperor museum combining the architectual styles of the minorities of Man,Han and Mongolia.
This palace covers an area of 60,000 square meters,comprising over 20 courtyards,300 houses and 70 buildings.The whole construction is divided into three sections: the east, middle and west.
First let's pay a visit to the buildings in the buildings in the middle section.The layout of middle section is similar to a Chinese compound with three courtyards.The first courtyard is the office area.It starts from the Grand Qing Gate on the south and ends at Holy Administration Hall.From Phoenix Tower to Purity and Tranquility Hall is the residential area.They all lay out on the same line.
The main entrance to the palace is the Grand Qing Gate,also called Meridian Gate because the emperor considered himself as the son of Heaven and the palace should be the center of universe .The Grand Qing Gate was bulilt in 1632 and is was the place where the civilian offcials and military ministers to present themselves before the emperor daily .The special feature of the gate is the tile color.They are all yellow tiles but engraved with green borders.Yellow synbolizes the ground and the royal right while green represents sea and mountains.The combination of them means controlling the vast areas on the earth.
The building to the east of Grand Qing Gate is called Ancestor Temple(Taimiao)with yellow tile roof,where Nuerhachi's descendants offeredsacrifices to their ancestors for blessings.So Ancestor Temple is the most important.
Please follow me into the gate.This path in the middle links the gate to Holy Administration Hall with Flying Dragon Pavilion (Feilongge) and Flying Phoenix Pavilion(Xiangfengge) on each side.The Hall of Holy Administration is the main building in the middle part of the palace and it was the center of the military,administrative affairs in eatly Qing Dynasty and had witnessed many national ceremories.Flying Dragon and Flying Phoenix Pavilions were for storing music instruments.
Holy Administration Hall was Emperor Huangtaiji's office.In front of the hall are Rigui and Jiangliang,which were used as measure instruments and supposed to be the symbol of unity.
In accient construction,office area is usually in the front part and residential area is in the rear.Since we have visted the place where the Emperors worked and now we'll pay a visite tothe place where empress and concubines lived.Here is the Phoenis Tower.It served as an entrances to the rear chambers and also the entertainment area of Huangtaiji and his concubines,and some gatherings or banquets were held occasionally.The tower was built on a terrace 3.8 meters tall.It was the tallest building in Shenyang at that time .It is amazing watching sunrise in the morning on the tower and Phoenix Sunrise is one of the famous Eight fascinating Scenes in Shenyang.
Look upward ,we will see a board hanging up on Phoenix Tower ,on which Emperor Qianlong inscribed "Ziqidonglai",which meant the Qing Dynasty in Beijing immigrated fron Shengjing,the old name for Shenyang to the east .There are 24staircases leading to Phoenix Tower representing 24 seasonal divisions points in chinese lunar calendar.In Shenyang Imperial palace chambers are higher than halls, which is contrary to the architectural style in Forbidden city in Beijing.
Walking through the tower are the rear chambers.The one on the north in the middle was called Purity and Tranquility Hall,which was prepared for emperor and empress.The other four lying on both sides were fo concubines .Purity and Tranquility Hall has five rooms and the First from the east was where Huangraiji passed away here at the age of 52 without any disease.His throne passed to his ninth son,Fulin.In early Qing Dynasty,the construction style was summed up like this: bag-like house,zigzag bed and chimney sitting on the ground.The main buildings here were different from other buildings with a door was opende in the wall of the east room and the other rooms were connected together like a bag.The zigzag beds,made of mud and brick and with fire and smoke tunnels were called"kang"in Chinese.In order to get heat and keep room warm in winter,tunnels was made under the ground of Purity and Tranquility Hall to put fire and smoke through .Now notice the pole standing on the ground for smoke through.Now notice the pole standing right in the middle of the courtyard.This red pole is called Suolun pole,or Holy Pole.Its round tin container near the top was filled with food for feeding crows.It was said that Nuerhachi was savedby crows.Crows are considered sacred in Manchurian culture though in Chinese culture crows are regarded as birds bringing bad luck.
Emperor Huangtaiji had four concubines.Among the four concubines Chen was loved best by Huangtaiji and Concubine Zhuang was the wisest and the mother of the next emperor,Fulin.Therefore ,she had a special status among the concubines.
The only chimney was built on the rear of Purity and Tranquility hall from the ground with 11 layers ,representing the 11 emperors from Emperor Huangtaiji to the last emperor Puyi.This chimney was the highest one at that time.In Chinese ,the sound of chimeny"tong" is the same as that of unity.
To the north further is rear courtyard called Yuhua Garden.

沈陽故宮導(dǎo)游詞英文版 篇3
游客朋友們:
大家好!首先請允許我代表沈陽市全體市民對各位的到來表示熱烈歡迎!今天我為大家介紹的就是沈陽的風(fēng)景名勝之一的“沈陽故宮”。
沈陽故宮占地6萬多平方米,有樓臺殿閣各式建筑70余座,由20多個院落組成,總計房屋300多間。故宮按自然布局分為中路、東路和西路三部分。
中路:是太宗皇太極時期的大內(nèi)宮闕。南端是大清門,也是故宮的正門。向北依次是崇政殿、鳳凰褸、清寧宮,它們都排列在一條中軸線上,兩側(cè)還有一些對稱式的附屬建筑。
大清門是日常朝會時文武大臣侯朝的地方,也是清太宗接受群臣謝恩之處。明朝著名將領(lǐng)洪承疇降清后,就從此門進(jìn)入,受到皇太極的接見。大清門東側(cè)這處建筑叫祖廟,祖廟是愛新覺羅家族祭祀祖先的地方,因是天子的祖廟也稱“太廟”。
崇政殿前,東西各有五間廂樓,東為飛龍閣,西為翔鳳閣。殿后是一個院落,院正北有一座高約4米的高臺,臺上是皇太極極其后妃的寢區(qū)。沿臺階走上去便是一座金碧輝煌的高樓——鳳凰樓。它的原名叫翔鳳樓,直到1743年才有鳳凰樓之稱。鳳凰樓是清寧宮的門戶,也是皇帝策劃軍政大事和宴筵之所。它與崇政殿同期建成,康熙二十年重修。樓為三層,是三滴水式建筑。每層深廣各三間,周圍有回廊,下層的門洞是聯(lián)絡(luò)臺上臺下的道。風(fēng)凰樓既是后宮的大門,又是整個宮殿建筑的制高點。在樓上觀看日出,極為美妙。所以“鳳樓曉日”、“鳳樓觀塔”是沈城著名的景觀。鳳凰樓正門上額的“紫氣東來”金字橫匾是乾隆皇帝的御筆。
清寧宮兩側(cè)是東西配宮,東配宮有關(guān)雎宮、衍慶宮;西配宮有麟趾宮和永福宮。東西配宮均為皇太極和妃子們居住之所。清寧宮西北角有一根由地面壘起,低于屋背的煙囪,人們從正面是看不見的。從清寧宮這一系列建筑中,我們可以發(fā)現(xiàn)沈陽故宮的兩大建筑特點:一是保存了濃厚的滿族特色即口袋房、萬字炕、煙囪豎在地面上。二是宮高殿低,清寧宮及其四所配宮均高于皇帝議政的崇政殿和東路的大政殿。這是因為清朝奪取政權(quán)前,滿族是一個牧獵民族,受生活習(xí)慣的影響,把居住的地方建在高處,以防野獸和洪水的侵襲。這與北京故宮恰好相反。
清寧宮高臺之后是“后苑”,也叫“御花園”,內(nèi)有碾磨房、二十八間倉、后宰門等建筑,是皇帝膳食的供給區(qū)。并有地下窨道與清寧宮相通。
在崇政殿、清寧宮高臺兩側(cè)有“東所”、“西所”。東所由南往北依次是頤和殿、介祉宮、敬典閣等。東所是東巡時皇帝后妃給太后請安之處,也皇太后的寢宮和存放實錄、玉牒之處;西所由南往北依次是迪光殿、保極殿、繼恩齋和崇謨閣等。西所是東巡時皇帝、后妃及子女居住的地方和存放《圣訓(xùn)》、《滿文老檔》的地方。崇謨閣的建筑形式是別具一格的,它為卷棚式建筑,是在清乾隆年間增建的。]
東路是以大政殿為主體,兩側(cè)輔以方亭十座,稱“十王亭”。大政殿建于努爾哈赤時期,是故宮最早期八角重檐大木架亭子式建筑。大政殿下是高約1。5米的須彌座式臺基,周圍繞以雕刻精細(xì)的荷葉凈瓶青石雕。殿身八面均有“斧頭眼”式隔扇門,內(nèi)外排柱40根,正門前有雙龍蟠柱。殿頂是十六道五彩琉璃脊,正中是寶瓶火焰珠。殿內(nèi)有精致的斗拱、藻井天花,梁架上用“和璽”彩繪,上有黃琉璃瓦綠剪邊的頂蓋。整個建筑顯示出極強的美感和莊嚴(yán)秀麗的裝飾藝術(shù)情趣。大政殿是皇帝舉行大型慶典的地方,1643年清世祖福臨在此即位。
大政殿前,正中是寬闊的甬道,兩側(cè)以八字形排列著十座方亭,這就是“十王亭”。從北至南,東邊是左翼王亭、正黃旗亭、正紅旗亭、鑲藍(lán)旗亭、正白旗亭;西邊是右翼王亭、鑲黃旗亭、鑲紅旗亭、正藍(lán)旗亭、鑲白旗亭。這是當(dāng)年八旗首領(lǐng)固山額真和左右統(tǒng)轄八旗的親王貝勒辦公的地方。八旗制度在清王朝的軍事政治及社會制度,民事管理等等很多方面都占有極為重要的地位,發(fā)揮著巨大的作用。大政殿與十王亭構(gòu)成了一組亭子式院落建筑,它是清入關(guān)前八旗制度在宮殿建筑上的反映。設(shè)計者從局部建筑直至整體布局,處處突出“八”字。這種把軍政制度巧妙地融合在建筑藝術(shù)中的做法,真可算是構(gòu)思獨特、別具匠心。
