Implication of Ziwei Garden

The Forbidden City? This name only existed in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Now people have changed the name of the largest palace complex in the world to the Forbidden City.

The renaming of the Forbidden City was caused by historical reasons. With the development of history, 19 1 1 Xinhai Revolution broke out, which overthrew the rule of the Manchu government and directly led to the end of thousands of years of feudal rule in China. With the development of society at that time, the country was in a scene of internal troubles and foreign invasion. 1924, Feng Yuxiang led troops to attack Beijing. The final result was to drive the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty out of the Forbidden City. That is to say, there will never be an emperor in the Forbidden City, a royal courtyard with a history of hundreds of years. So the name of the Forbidden City was changed to a certain extent, called the Forbidden City. And then what? So what? This word stands for something old. The Forbidden City also represents the meaning of an ancient palace. It is also recorded in history that after the Yuan Dynasty was replaced by the Qing Dynasty, the capital was also called the Forbidden City.

The renaming of the Forbidden City is a historical necessity and a need of historical development. It is necessary to prove that this period of history is a symbol of historical development by renaming the Forbidden City. However, the origin of the name Forbidden City is also very interesting. The first argument is because it has something to do with the allusion that purple gas comes from the East. In ancient times, purple was often regarded as a very auspicious symbol. The place where the emperor lived was the place where the son of heaven lived and was the center of the country. Therefore, the Forbidden City chooses the word purple, which means auspiciousness and is a symbol of auspiciousness.

There is another saying, because in ancient times, there were special people who did some research on astronomy. People think that Ziweiyuan is the place where the emperor lived, so the place where the emperor lived on earth corresponds to the purple palace where the emperor lived in heaven, hence the name of the Forbidden City.
