lying at the center of beijing， the forbidden city， called gu gong， in chinese， was the imperial palace during the ming and qing dynasties. now known as the palace museum， it is to the north of tiananmen square. rectangular in shape， it is the world‘s largest palace complex and covers 74 hectares. surrounded by a six meter deep moat and a ten meter high wall are 9，999 buildings. the wall has a gate on each side. opposite the tiananmen gate， to the north is the gate of devine might (shenwumen)， which faces jingshan park. the distance between these two gates is 960 meters， while the distance between the gates in the east and west walls is 750 meters. there are unique and delicately structured towers on each of the four corners of the curtain wall. these afford views over both the palace and the city outside. the forbidden city is divided into two parts. the southern section， or the outer court was where the emperor exercised his supreme power over the nation. the northern section， or the inner court was where he lived with his royal family. until 1924 when the last emperor of china was driven from the inner court， fourteen emperors of the ming dynasty and ten emperors of the qing dynasty had reigned here. having been the imperial palace for some five centuries， it houses numerous rare treasures and curiosities. listed by unesco as a world cultural heritage site in 1987， the palace museum is now one of the most popular tourist attractions world wide.

construction of the palace complex began in 1407， the 5th year of the yongle reign of the third emperor of the ming dynasty. it was completed fourteen years later in 1420. it was said that a million workers including one hundred thousand artisans were driven into the long-term hard labor. stone needed was quarried from fangshan， a suburb of beijing. it was said a well was dug every fifty meters along the road in order to pour water onto the road in winter to slide huge stones on ice into the city. huge amounts of timber and other materials were freighted from faraway provinces. ancient chinese people displayed their very considerable skills in building the forbidden city. take the grand red city wall for example. it has an 8.6 meters wide base reducing to 6.66 meters wide at the top. the angular shape of the wall totally frustrates attempts to climb it. the bricks were made from white lime and glutinous rice while the cement is made from glutinous rice and egg whites. these incredible materials make the wall extraordinarily strong.

since yellow is the symbol of the royal family， it is the dominant color in the forbidden city. roofs are built with yellow glazed tiles; decorations in the palace are painted yellow; even the bricks on the ground are made yellow by a special process. however， there is one exception. wenyuange， the royal library， has a black roof. the reason is that it was believed black represented water then and could extinguish fire.

nowadays， the forbidden city， or the palace museum is open to tourists from home and abroad. splendid painted decoration on these royal architectural wonders， the grand and deluxe halls， with their surprisingly magnificent treasures will certainly satisfy "modern civilians".

今天，我们史家小学的5·9班荣幸地代表全校学生去参加博物馆日活动。本次目的地是一座宏伟的博物馆——北京故宫。

首先我们进行了博物馆日活动讲座。讲座的内容多姿多彩。先讲解了钟表馆，里面有许多展品：有金碧辉煌的象拉战车、有神奇的向上滚钟、还有最能体现出古人智慧的机器人写字，我也最喜欢它，它仅仅是一个钟表，表上的机器人却能写出两行毛笔字，据说它的创作过程持续了好几年，这实在是太神奇了！北京故宫游记

然后我们主要讲了珍宝殿。那里隐藏着千万亿的财富北京故宫游记。为什么说有那么多的财富呢？因为它里面的珍宝个个价值连城，甚至是无价之宝。就说皇后的头冠吧，就用了九百多颗珍珠三百多颗红宝石以及表面上覆盖了翠鸟的羽毛，你能说那不是无价之宝吗？

该到讲座的放松时间了！北京故宫游记我们两校各显才艺：先由他们表演了京剧，唱得跟成年人差不多，细小的嗓子里竟能爆发那么洪亮的'声音，还有腔有调。我们也不甘示弱，由近十名同学现场表演书法，有楷书、有隶书、有草书……还伴随着美妙的音乐。等“小书法家们”都写完了展示的时候，赢得了大家的赞许，他们露出了会心的微笑。他们可在表演之前辛苦的练了一个星期。在有奖竞猜中，我们学校派出了六个人，他们学校派出了十八个人，分别进行竞猜。我校以一分的成绩战胜了他们北京故宫游记，毕竟重在参与，给了我们参赛者每人一个奖品。

我们参观了一会儿北京故宫就依依不舍地走出了它的大门北京故宫游记北京故宫游记。我没想到北京故宫会这么有意思，下次我还会来的。

游玩故宫的作文篇3

北京的故宫是明清两代的皇家宫殿，里面非常气派。

走进故宫的大门，就见迎面的小河上并排排列着五座石拱桥，称为金水桥。走过金水桥，一眼就望见有名的太和殿耸立在大广场上。太和殿建在一个八米高的基台上，两边栏杆上都刻有精致的凤凰、龙头等精美的石雕。走进殿内一看，金碧辉煌、庄严肃穆，墙上画有巨龙和色彩艳丽的凤凰，地上铺着金砖，美丽极了。这里还存放了许多玉器、书画等文物，这时，我仿佛看到了皇帝举着酒杯，在举行大型活动的样子。

走过了太和殿，就来到了后面的中和殿和保和殿。中和殿是皇帝举行典礼前休息的地方，还是举行“殿试”的.场所，“殿试”是科举考试中最高一级的考试，就是皇帝亲自考状元。

走过三个大殿，进了乾清门，就看到了乾清宫。这个宫是皇帝平时居住的地方，皇帝在这里接待外国客人、举行内廷典礼。站在那儿，仿佛看到皇帝笑容满面地接待外国客人，举行内廷典礼时大吃大喝地谈着天、看着歌舞的样子。

再后面是皇家存放玉玺的地方，这可是国家权力的象征。最后的坤宁宫是皇帝大婚时的洞房。

故宫非常气派，是世界遗产的“点睛之笔”，是我们国家的瑰宝，我们要爱护故宫的一草一木。

游玩故宫的作文篇4

我早已想亲眼目睹那壮观雄伟的故宫，有幸在暑假的时候，妈妈带着我来到了我仰慕的故宫。

故宫又称为紫禁城，位于北京的中心，是明清两代的皇宫，占地72万平方米，大小宫殿一共有70多座，共有9999、5间房屋，是世界现存保存最完好，规模最大的帝王宫殿。

故宫的房屋还有一个传说呢！传说天上的玉帝有一万间房屋，因为皇帝是天子，他的房屋数量不能比玉帝房屋的数量多，所以就比玉帝少了半间。穿过午门，首先映入眼帘的是五座架在金水河上用汉白玉制作的金水桥，走过金水桥，穿过太和门，就来到了故宫的三大殿――太和殿、中和殿、保和殿。这三大殿都矗立在七十多米高的白石台基上，台基有三层，分别用汉白玉栏杆围绕起来，栏杆上雕刻着“二龙戏珠”、“龙凤呈祥”等精美图案。

太和殿是故宫最大的一座宫殿，又称为“金銮殿”，是举行大典的地方，在阳光的照耀下，显得金碧辉煌，雄伟壮观。走进太和殿，首先看见一把龙椅摆放在大殿的正中间，两旁有高大的柱子，上面雕刻着一条条栩栩如生的金龙。抬头仰望殿顶，殿顶中央有一条金龙，它的嘴里含着一颗大龙珠，它的四周还有六颗小龙珠，它们正对着龙椅。

继续往前走，就来到中和殿，中和殿是皇帝举行大典之前在那里暂坐和受官员行礼的地方，之后再去太和殿举行大典。

看过中和殿，就来到保和殿。保和殿是殿试的地方，里面有一方台，在方台的中间有一把木椅，上面雕刻着千万条龙，木椅两旁还各有一只展翅高飞的仙鹤。殿里还有许多考试用的桌子，桌子上摆着文房，游完故宫我不得不佩服古代人的智慧，也使我为此而感到骄傲。

暑假，我参加了由“中国少年报”组织的北京奥运风采夏令营活动，此活动使我受益匪浅，其中，给我印象最深刻的就——故宫。

北京故宫，旧称紫禁城，听导游阿姨说，它是明清两个朝代24位皇帝居住和办公的地方，现在被称为“故宫历史博物馆”。

一座高大雄伟的殿堂映入了我的眼帘，它就是太和殿。“太和殿就是……”“太和殿俗称‘金銮殿’，也就是皇上上朝的地方。”我抢了导游阿姨的话。“看来观看电视也涨知识不少，这点知识还是知道的。”我暗暗得意。

导游阿姨笑着说：“看来这个小朋友知道的不少啊！那我再补充一点吧！其实太和殿是皇宫里举行盛大典礼的地方，它非常的豪华。”听了导游阿姨的解说，我们都迫不及待地踮起脚跟往里瞧，看看金銮殿地面是不是金子铺成的地面。

绕过其它殿，我们来到了后花园。哇，我惊讶得长大了嘴巴，原来皇帝这么富有啊！花园都比我们村大的多啊！而且花园里面的'花那么多：玫瑰、郁金香、梅花、牡丹、兰花……还有好多我根本见也没有见到的稀有珍品，更不要说花园里的那些建筑了。

游完故宫，我感叹故宫真是一个奇迹啊！而这个奇迹是劳动人民用血汗换来的，更值得我去学习。

故宫是明清两代的皇宫，也是世界上雄伟建筑之一。那么，它到底有多雄伟呢？今天就让我们一起去探索一番吧。

首先是故宫三大殿。其中，最令人难忘的宫殿还是太和殿。一是因为它是三大殿中面积最大的宫殿；二是因为它还是做工最精细的'宫殿。在湛蓝的天空下，金黄色的琉璃瓦片房顶非常辉煌，殿檐斗拱、额枋、梁柱装饰着彩色，十分漂亮。朱漆门在阳光下闪闪发亮，与台基上的白色栏杆相互映衬，色彩鲜明，雄伟大方；三是因为这里是举行重大典礼的地方，每到重要节日或大典都在这里举办，自然也就增添了一种肃穆之氛。

“前三殿”往后就到了“后三宫”，乾清宫、交泰殿和坤宁宫，这里虽然结构与前三殿基本一样，但庄严的气息犹为减少，彩色图案也以龙为主变成了以凤为主，这是因为内廷由皇后掌管，所以就有了很多凤的彩画。古代劳动人民的智慧让我感到无比震撼。

再向后走，就到了御花园。这是皇子与公主玩耍的地方，虽然面积不大，却毫无违和感，这里的景色非常美，步入其中，仿佛是走进了苏州园林。

再看课本上故宫平面图，房间是那么多，数不胜数。故宫建筑是那么雄伟壮丽，一切井然有序，我再次为劳动人民点一个赞。

situated in the western outskirts of haidian district, the summer palace is 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) from central beijing. having the largest royal park and being well preserved, it was designated, in 1960 by the state council, as a key cultural relics protection site of china. containing examples of the ancient arts, it also has graceful landscapes and magnificent constructions. the summer palace is the archetypal chinese garden, and is ranked amongst the most noted and classical gardens of the world. in 1998, it was listed as one of the world heritage sites by unesco.

constructed in the jin dynasty (1115-1234), during the succeeding reign of feudal emperors; it was extended continuously. by the time of the qing dynasty (1644-1911), it had become a luxurious royal garden providing royal families with rest and entertainment. originally called 'qingyi garden' (garden of clear ripples), it was know as one of the famous 'three hills and five gardens' (longevity hill, jade spring mountain, and fragrant hill; garden of clear ripples, garden of everlasting spring, garden of perfection and brightness, garden of tranquility and brightness, and garden of tranquility and pleasure). like most of the gardens of beijing, it could not elude the rampages of the anglo-french allied force and was destroyed by fire. in 1888, empress dowager cixi embezzled navy funds to reconstruct it for her own benefit, changing its name to summer palace (yiheyuan). she spent most of her later years there, dealing with state affairs and entertaining. in 1900, it suffered again, being ransacked by the eight-power allied force. after the success of the 1911 revolution, it was opened to the public.

composed mainly of longevity hill and kunming lake, the summer palace occupies an area of 294 hectares (726.5 acres), three quarters of which is water. guided by nature, artists designed the gardens exquisitely so that visitors would see marvelous views and be amazed by perfect examples of refined craftwork using the finest materials.

court area: this is where empress dowager cixi and emperor guangxu met officials, conducted state affairs and rested. entering the east palace gate, visitors may see the main palace buildings: the hall of benevolence and longevity served as the office of the emperor, the hall of jade ripples where guangxu lived, the hall of joyful longevity, cixi's residence, the garden of virtue and harmony where cixi was entertained, yiyun house , where once lived the empress longyu, and long gallery, which measures the longest in chinese gardens.
