It is the oldest
Talk about history, about who however, the North Sea, the Summer Palace, the Summer Palace is its little sister.
The same age and history of the North Sea and a capital of Beijing, the Beijing capital in the history of the Liao and Jin counting more than 800 years, eight hundred years of the existence of the North Sea.
This is not to say that the early Beijing Metro City is not in Beijing's position was the position southwest today Xuanwu District, the North Sea, it outside, in the northeast direction, there has Rikyu. To the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, urban migration to the northeast, just circle the North Sea in the middle.
Beihai Beijing, Beijing incarnation.
Beijing is the North Sea, the North Sea, is the root of Beijing.
And now what relics prove Beihai Old?
Rikyu of the Liao Dynasty, Jin Dynasty Taining Palace no longer exists, but dug lakes exist island dug lake accumulation exists, the North Sea, and Qionghua Island, as well as in the sea.
The shore of the oldest relics is a well of the Yuan Dynasty. Water in the North Sea Xilu fine domain, acres Kam room and two pools and wells. Emperor Qianlong wrote a "Yongan Temple Furui mind" engraved at the outlet at the Furui, engraved in the water the fine domain Kitayama wall. The pool location was the Yuan Dynasty emperor Queen sauna baths, and was called "warm stone bathroom.
To find the oldest relics in Beijing, want to say ancient, preferred when the North Sea, as evidence that Furui and ancient pond.

It is a model
A model, a model, a model specimen, representatives. One is complete, the others have, that is not lacking; quality, resounding, quack, top.
North Sea is a model, a model of the imperial garden in China.
Chinese gardens have said head, well-founded, typical short, provenance, a word, a story, not blind to, is not making things up, has never been a "fictional". This is called rhythmic, which is called the rules. Often said that China is one of the world's four ancient civilizations, and most of the history of civilization kingdom. The North Sea is a concrete proof and reflect. See, the layout of the North Sea is not arbitrary, according to ancient Chinese mythology; the all imperial garden must be so, the North Sea is no exception.
Chinese classical mythology wonderland of the world is "a pool of three mountains, all the fairy palace has a pool of the East China Sea, the sea three mountains are called Penglai, Yingzhou and abbot. Imperial garden must repair like the fairyland in general, you must first have the East China Sea and the three mountains. This is the mode. Beihai is built according to this principle, the Summer Palace is also true. Tang Dynasty so that the Song Dynasty, Jin Dynasty, and subsequently has been true.
A pool is too liquid pool, three mountains, the sea is Qionghua Island City Mission and rhino mountain stage.
The so-called the others have said what to what. To the legendary story of it? Zhou Mu and the Queen Mother of the West meet in Kunlun Jade Pool, Qionghua Island, the northern foot of the platform, and too liquid pool is; bronze in the northern foot of the slopes fairy Cheng Lu disk, to mimic the story of the Emperor Wudi take exposed for Immortality built.

Wall of the famous "Nine Dragon Wall", the monument Yanjing Eight the "Qiongdao Chunyin. Dock dragon boat dock, cellar Royal icehouse are all kinds of structures in the head in the highest specifications.
A garden where so rich setting varieties so complete removal of the North Sea, and nothing.
North Sea was undoubtedly the champion.

It is the most literate
North Sea actually has two showrooms display of ancient Chinese calligraphy carved stone treasures. The one called Hit the the Ancient Court, another called fast Xue Tang. Read ancient Court Qionghua Island in the northwest corner, fast snow Church in the north shore of the North Sea, close to the Nine Dragon Wall. The two are built by the Emperor Qianlong.
Qianlong very hi art of calligraphy in 1746, he has been Wang Xizhi "fast snow when the eye," a young boy's "Autumn, quote," Wang Xun Zhan posts ". Three posts are hidden in the Forbidden City Hall of Mental Cultivation caller and the Hall of Mental Cultivation possession of posts at the known as the "three Greek Church. The following year he ordered the three treasures and the Imperial Household in three Greek Church with the treasures of the collection of ancient calligraphy Le Dan engraved into a clump posts, a total of 495-square involving the Wei and Jin since the calligrapher 135 people, a total of 340 posts. Later, specializing read ancient tower built in the North Sea Qionghua Island West Mountain store These stone like an authority calligraphy museum.
The matter after 33 years, the Qianlong emperor a clump posts, of 80, together with Wang Xizhi "fast snow eyes," a total of 81, is a scholar in the Ming and Qing Feng Quan compilation, famous Stele, after Zhili Governor Yang Jingsu purchased shipped to Beijing to the emperor. Qianlong was overjoyed, then, it is embedded in stone carvings in the North Sea north shore built fast snow Church, on its Two Corridors and the inner wall of the East and West. He also wrote a "fast snow Tong Kee. Fast snow Church sets of the plexus posts Carvings the engraved art than read the Greek Church, Old Court three stone carvings, stone carvings will be particularly more precious.
Two baby, The Beihai called the highest Chinese calligraphy art collection hall.
Western foot of a small pavilion in the North Sea, stone, hiding behind the read ancient Court. It's called "smoke the best state pavilion. Qi Qi eight pillars, each pillar section was eight prism, each pillar is divided into three sections on the lower, so there are 8 × 8 × 3 = 192 plane can be engraved 192 Poem imitation of the outside inside the top eight stone tablet with 16 surface, providing a total of 208 planes, Keke 208 poems, Keke law contained seven-character words 26. The poems are from the Qianlong emperor himself. Each word fist, the font also very beautiful, poetic not all wind took snowy night, often "worried, cut million 民家" when such thoughtful sentiments thoughts.
The pavilion is unique in the world, the pavilion in the goods must belong to the top grade.
Which is a pavilion, it would be called downright carrier of culture.
The world only the Chinese have such an elegant building.
It in the North Sea.

Not a stone stones
The North Sea is a must stone. This is not in other gardens. Other gardens, as long as the Chinese, it touches has a stone for decorating, some stone is still very famous, such as the Summer Palace of the Qing Zhi Xiu. But these stones are just individuals. The North Sea is not the case. North Sea stone mountains. The entire mountain stone Zhuo surface like a tuck. The stone is simply not a stone, but a priceless treasure.
This baby is eroded limestone, grotesque, and pay attention to "gel, transparent, thin".
Taihu Speaking of the North Sea, but the story of a car.
Jin off the Northern Song Dynasty after the capture of Kaifeng, Huizong and Qinzong captivity to the northeast. Jin capital Beijing emulate Gen Yue the Huizong decided also northeast of the capital to build a like a fairyland put on Kaifeng Gen Yue Tai Hu to Beijing on Qionghua island. In kind as well as the North Sea Qionghua island every one Taihu are the Song Hua Lihuang home garden. Taihu will have an alias called "folding grain stone, had consumed a large number of migrant workers are transported to Beijing by the Kaifeng out of tolerance against the tax modifications, is named. Previously, these precious Shangshi indeed nine hundred years ago exhumed from Taihu Lake, along the Sui and Tang Grand Canal with large shipping to Kaifeng from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, which is the history of the Song Dynasty famous flower Stone Gang ", and called the the birthday program had leads countless stories of human tragedy.
So, so many rocks in the North Sea island of Qionghua, each one imbued with human blood and sweat, are worthy of awe, is worth Ding down cloud to touch gently by hand, for every one! No matter in which corner.
History, this is history, heavy.
Kangxi emperor built Yingtai, he moved a large number Qionghua island eroded limestone, reconstruction of the North Sea Huang Yuan to the Qianlong emperor, after finishing Qionghua Island's surface or covered a whole layer of precious Taihu, irrespective of where the eyes see, the foot shall tread, hands touch, the entire one Qionghua Island, actually all Taihu world.
This is definitely a must.
Particular Xilu and northern foothills to see. Emperor Qianlong as a whole hillside of the western foot of the northern foot of Taihu design into a stack of cloth. Rain water along the stone down, unable to penetrate the soil, formed by flowing water stacked cloth, along stone dropped down to the water when the waves scattered, flying jump, water surface width, slope, order, very spectacular . And Tuantuan sound, true as a matter of "refreshing" the landscape, the emperor, I like to sit opposite Yi Lan Tong, hall of Downing vegetarian watch, in front of a dynamic harmony between man and nature's finest creations, like a musical accompaniment of Chinese landscape painting!
What is more, and who, in the North Slope, the Qianlong emperor also use the Taihu built long cave, this cave are available drilled playful, this is the northern slope of rock-socketed room floor, disc Lan Trio " pot of heaven and earth Pavilion "," write wonderful sarcophagus "," intoxicated ancient Church "," Lvgong hole "of the location of the attractions.
These caves has well-preserved and opened to all Taihu.

Designed by the emperor himself
North Sea, the North Sea, one located in the Imperial City, and the Forbidden City in close proximity, is relatively small relative to the Western Hills Three Hills and Five Gardens, the emperor himself, especially the Qianlong emperor himself, acts as a designer, this is another big characteristics. Therefore, the North Sea, destined to the highest specifications, using the best materials, the most highest density and best quality, said without exaggeration, Qionghua Island and every inch of ground around the pool too fluid the Emperor Qianlong arrangements attractions, a next to a patchwork, designers dare to break miraculous unusual, is allocated in the imperial garden sharp.
Say the world's cultural heritage, the North Sea has long been eligible favorably in the Summer Palace, Beijing should become the seventh World Heritage project.
Gardens of the Summer Palace on the outskirts of St. Petersburg is personally designed by Peter the Great and famous; North Sea, should also be good publicity, it is also the emperor himself designed, is a world-class Royal garden masterpiece, not to mention, push up, its a long history , especially rare.
Existing Qianlong Emperor described the poems of the North Sea there are as many as another first 700 amazing a garden. Probably the world which the garden can be compared with it.
Qianlong emperor also several very long paper on the North Sea, all carved in stone, made it clear that he designed the overall concept of the North Sea, the guiding ideology and specific content.
They are:
Baita Mountain mind "
"Baita Mountain surrounded by mind" (points south of Hutchison, the west remember the north Hutchison, east Hutchison four)
Yongan Temple Furui mind "
Seven pagodas BeiJi "
"Fast Ice Tong Kee
Chinese ancients great, the best way to find a permanent recorded history, that is, the text engraved in stone, if stored properly, can be retained for a long time. This approach so that future generations can be the face of the history of the party, but again straightforward.
Emperor Qianlong of cultural accomplishment is second to none, many emperors can be known to see his poems and calligraphy, plus the longest year of his reign, and peace and prosperity, the state treasury is very rich. China was the world's first Wells Fargo. Archives documented repair on the North Sea spent 2.32 million taels of silver, a figure roughly equivalent to 7% of the state treasury's annual income, beautifully Therefore, the North Sea there is sufficient material basis. Plus Qianlong well-informed, Saturday Jiangnan famous southern private garden was thoroughly studied. In Beijing, the inheritance and development and to build a gallery-style, originality imperial garden is not surprising that thing.
Although the density of the attractions of the North Sea, it went in, but he is no significant crowding. Its benefits are free everywhere, everywhere package vegetation being, and everywhere there are ups and downs, walking for King, will be a natural beauty here drilled a small pavilion, there will be exposed half of the roof. The best way is to sit down on the slopes of the Qionghua Island, quietly watching some angle field of view can look very far, some angle view full green, I turned around, Hey, a group of chief corner cornices almost touch your nose. Here you can spend a half an hour, and forget the world's bustling and noisy, quiet and elegant taste Chinese garden. You can also carefully read the countless plaque couplets and poems. In short, the design of the North Sea is dense but not crowded, for without board, endless views, they are so natural. Slowly, you will appreciate, garden and foreign garden are two completely different things, more respect for the days of fun, pursuit of Heaven, with all artificial means to express a natural beauty, and extending become drawings, poetry and music nurtured.
Into the North Sea, the South Gate, the bridge over the arch of the heap cloud "into Yongan Temple door, along Qionghua Island axis to climb to Yongan temple, you can see two large stone pass legislation in kiosks This is the Baita Mountain mind "and" the Baita Mountain is surrounded by mind "really like to come to the explanations in the foreign attractions tourist reception center hall. They have big screens, paper-based tourist guide books; let a large stone, imperial brush, too air.
After reading the monument turned his head, looked down to see the the Yong'an Temple of Dianding, that the above actually colorful glazed tile, white, yellow, blue, red, black, green, paved with huge diamond pattern on the roof, miraculous matter to, nowhere to be seen. You would be surprised, in such a small corner, there could be so careful arrangements, the details of the design actually careful to the point of such a summit of the really unique.
More than you dumbfounded, an exclamation blurted out:
Found a world's best garden!


Found that Beijing Second

               Divulge the secret of the Lama Temple
Shu Yi
One of the few places worth Lama Temple.
Lama Temple is the lamasery, Tibetan Buddhism sung one of form and content, but it is not the general sense of the temple, it is highly personalized, very special to Beijing can not go.
Visit the Lama Temple, the first look at its history, to see its political influence. Of course, appreciate the Lama Temple "Ruin," (the 10000 temples Buddha Maitreya, the 500 Falun temple Lohan, according to Buddha House Phoebe shrines) is important, but the political status of the Lama Temple in the past must not be overlooked, especially in the national unity and ethnic harmony in a key role.
Lama Temple is special is great and its historical background, its predecessor Palace, the official residence of Emperor Yongzheng when Prince started calling Baylor House, and later was promoted to the palace, Yongzheng the throne when the Emperor, Emperor palace formal Ciming "Lama Temple", the Yongzheng Jiabeng Azusa has been placed in this coffin, after ten years worshiped images of Yongzheng, Qianlong nine officially changed to the lamasery, to become the first in the Royal monastery. This change has great political significance, the Lama Temple, the headquarters has since become Emperor Qianlong Zuozhen manage vast areas of Mongolia, Tibet Administrator.
From this point of view the Lama Temple is very colorful, there are a large number of historical inscriptions plaque, almost all the emperor's imperial brush, a large number of fine statues, thangkas, volume, Buddhist relics, the Sixth Panchen Masters and seven world, precious relics of the 13th Dalai Lama to Beijing, Tantric statues, teaching and academic centers, as well as Buddhist festivals showcase. Lama Temple is one the most authoritative and most senior Tibetan Buddhist Museum, and fresh, so far there are still many lamas from Inner Mongolia in the Lama Temple, incense perennial thriving domestic and foreign visitors flocked.
Lama Temple, the most noteworthy is a monument; However, audiences tend to ignore it, from its location and the standard point of view, seems to think it is something important, but do not take a closer look, I do not know its powerful.
Into the first door Lama Temple door, before the first seat hall Lama Temple, a large Beiting, and stand in the middle of the corridor, the booth is a large surrounded the monument. This monument called "Lama said. The four text engraved above written by Emperor Qianlong paper devoted to Lamaism of the sources, the role of religious rules and teach the system.
This is a monument to disclose the secret, extremely valuable historical heritage value.
Stele huge volume, 6.2 meters high, square cylindrical, each 1.45 m wide, north is the Chinese language, the south Manchu, the other on both sides of the Mongolian, Tibetan. Monument stand Qianlong 57 years (1792). The inscription of Chinese characters Qianlong Yubi, very beautiful. The word two types, text and notes. Word of the text, Song, table tennis size; Note the word, double row, thumbnail size, regular script. The body of a total of 693 words, comments, 1489 words.
The original Qing regime poses the greatest threat to Mongolia. Mongolia in the north, behind in the Central Plains. Of Mongolian is very sturdy, good riding, mobility, traditional long-haul campaign and winking meta Mongols ran back home to save the vital forces, the future has been in peace, and await the coveted Central Plains, and often harassed frontier , and even the Mainland. Kangxi Emperor, the throne, the successful development and implementation of a national united front policy, united Mongolia. He played two ace, a Mongols is Lamaism appease and unite the Mongolian People's another many of his princess to marry Mongolian princes, united in the upper echelons of Mongolia. Two strokes and a Mongolian problem once and for all solve the troubles no. Lamaism and Mongolia grandson of Emperor Kangxi Emperor Qianlong to "Lama said" insightful descriptions and spoke highly of.
Lama Temple Lama said "inscription sentence is particularly noteworthy:" Hing Yellow Sect, so security congregation Mongolia, the Department of Non-small, and therefore can not be protected. "
Mongols in the Yuan Dynasty far there believe in Lamaism tradition, but it was the wrong policy of the Yuan rulers, the song Bailey stuffing the King Fanseng of disadvantages, Western Buddhist or even an equal footing with those in power politics, sudden, a lot of trouble, damage Quartet . Kangxi emperor decided to do the opposite, so that the Mongolian the popular Buddhist, go when Lama, take Huairou Road and take the upper echelons of religious unity to fight the policy.
Thus, in accordance with the regulations, a boy to go to when Lama, two boys, one of them go when Lama; Lama will not be able to get married, unable to bear children, results objectively Mongolia depopulated, the most dynamic layer of people who become Christians hors de combat.
This is "Hing Yellow Sect, that is so security congregation Mongolia, the Department of Non-Small" vital.
Emperor Qianlong expressly Lama said "do not believe in the reincarnation of Living Buddhas say, but respect the reincarnation of Living Buddhas, this custom, solid and to improve, do not let it become one of the private, the family of the private Optional of Fuxiang intelligent by several people , date of birth normalized bottle check valves, presided over by the high commissioners giant handled impartially. This is the origin of the system of drawing lots from the golden urn ". Through the major religious reform, to decide Tibet's highest religious and political leaders - the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama - the appointment and removal of power, concentrated to the central government.
Qianlong "Lama said that" the penalties and rewards will Emperor Kangxi advocates policies publicity: "of not Zunwang law that is contrary to the Buddhist doctrine of" perverse Road Act Correctional of, prejudice national policy by the Law Offences "that is contrary to the national interests of religious people to take extremely harsh punishment repressive policies.
So it seems that the contents of this monument is too important: the Lamaism settled for Mongolia; Tibet inalienable part of China since ancient times is an indisputable fact that the exercise of sovereignty has turned a well-established system; central Tibet and measures.
Stone, beautiful, large, very heavy, it is the incarnation of wisdom, is a symbol of cohesion is the embodiment of courage, the banner of unity, radiant, and go down in history.
Lama Temple is very nice and has a very profound things "pretty".
