The red walls of the Forbidden City are covered with snow! Why do people walking in the Forbidden City give people the feeling that every step they take is in a painting?
On January 25, Beijing received its second snowfall in 2021. The closed Forbidden City looks even quieter in the snow, with the red walls and white snow flying around, as if you have traveled back to the Forbidden City, and every scene is captured in the painting. The ethereal nature of snow is that it is air at the beginning, rain when it gets cold, and snow when it gets colder. ?Snowflakes, as calm as frost, sparkle under the sunlight, leaving a pure impression on people everywhere.
In recent days, there has been widespread snowfall in northern cities, presenting us with a cold spring snow scene. In particular, the snowy scenery of the Forbidden City in Beijing, which has been widely circulated on the Internet, is even more beautiful and intoxicating. Butterfly-like snowflakes danced gracefully, bringing us the spectacular sight of thousands of pear trees in bloom.
If I want to describe my inner feelings about this situation, it would be the poem "Spring Snow in Qinyuan": "The scenery of the northern country is covered with ice for thousands of miles and snow is drifting for thousands of miles." ?This vast world of ice and snow not only has the impression of the northern snow scene, but is also covered with ice for thousands of miles and snow drifting for thousands of miles, creating a unique and elegant environment.
The Forbidden City in the snow also has a unique flavor: golden tiles, white snow, red walls and silver clothing, it is absolutely beautiful.
Lu Meipo in the Song Dynasty said: "Plum blossoms without snow are not spiritual, and snow without poetry is vulgar." ?It is said that beautiful scenery is paired with good poetry. Let us recite poems related to ?snow? while enjoying the beautiful snow scene!
Each falling snow is an extremely exquisite pattern, like catkins fluttering in the wind, or like a continuous curtain, attracting many poets to come and soak up their pens. For example, Cen Shen, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, wrote "Song of White Snow to Send Magistrate Wu Back to the Capital". The famous poem about snow is "Suddenly a spring breeze comes, and thousands of pear blossoms bloom". It can be said that the artistic conception is magnificent and full of the beauty of falling snow.
When the snowflakes flying all over the sky fall, the branches of the jade trees are covered with silver, which is particularly enchanting. Dongfang Qiu wrote in "Spring Snow": "Spring snow comes all over the sky, and it looks like flowers blooming wherever it touches." ?It also uses flowers as a metaphor for snow, which is similar to the idea of ?thousands of pear trees blooming? People from the south have seen the scene of pear blossoms in full bloom. The snow-white flowers are clustered together and the branches are low, which is very similar to the scene of snow-pressed winter forests in the north.
With red walls and white snow-glazed tiles, the Forbidden City in the snow is as beautiful as a picture. Walking into the Forbidden City in the snow is like walking into a dream, which contains beautiful scenery and good poetry. "Reciting poems and composing poems to appreciate the snow scenery and listening to the sound of falling snow in Beiping". Every poem about "snow" is a state of mind. Accompanying the poem, there is a new understanding in every snow falling season.
