What are the two big pillars in front of Tiananmen Square for? After reading it, I solved many years of doubts and admired the ancients!
Although people in ancient times did not have high technology or the help of machines, their minds and hands were quite flexible. There are two big pillars in front of Tiananmen Square. It is called "Huabiao", and it also has another nickname "Huan Biao". Many people go to Beijing when traveling. When they come to Beijing, almost everyone does not go to Tiananmen Square. It is also a very representative building in the capital. It is the hard work of our ancestors in ancient times. Those two pillars have as long a history as Tiananmen. Why were these two pillars built? What is it for? Decoration?
The editor looked up the history and found that Huabiao had its predecessor. Starting from the time of Yao, wooden pillars and wooden signs were placed at crossroads to indicate the way, serving as signs for people. Of course, it also has another function, that is, it can also be used on The above expressed their opinions on the politics of the time and promoted development. This was the predecessor of Huabiao. As society progressed, although the wooden ones were replaced by those made of stone, there was no way to engrave them anymore. Without that function, the decorations became more and more gorgeous, and they became exclusive items for palaces and mausoleums. It existed together with Tiananmen during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. It has no real role now. However, it has existed for more than 500 years. It has gone through vicissitudes of life and witnessed the changes of various dynasties. The patterns carved by the ancestors are still there. The knowledge base contained in it is incomparable today.
What is its origin? Where is the beauty? Huabiao is also hierarchical and divided into three sections. Let’s talk about the base first. It is square, but it is not monotonous. It is surrounded by railings. There are little lions sitting on the four sides of the railings. They are also carved from stone and are very exquisite. These railings are wrapped in a circle around it. Be there for each other. Let’s talk about the pillar body again. Unlike the base, it is octagonal. If the weather is good, you will see an endless blue sky with soft clouds. The body of the pillar is also carved with a giant dragon circling. There is also a cloud plate on it. Although there is only one, there are auspicious clouds carved horizontally on it. They complement each other and are so spectacular! The craftsmanship and ideas of our ancestors are worthy of admiration! The most noteworthy thing is the pillar head. Chengpanlu is a large disc covering the head of a pillar. There is also a very auspicious animal on this large disc, called Wangtianhou! The name sounds domineering. The domineering name also has a beautiful legend. It is the child of the dragon. Everyone knows that the dragon has nine children, and it is one of them.
Are the large discs for decoration? Of course not, it is for bathing in the rain and dew given by God. In front of the Tiananmen Gate Tower are a pair of dragon children, looking at the sky and roaring at the outside of the palace, to remind the king that there are still political affairs to be busy outside, not to miss women, and to see more of the people outside, to experience the lives of the people, and to see how they live. How about this? This one is called Wang Junchu. The pair of dragon children at the back were still sitting and looking at the palace. It also reminds the king at all times not to be greedy for the colorful world outside, to experience the life of the common people, and to come back early after dealing with the outside affairs. There are still a lot of things to deal with in the palace. Return to the palace early to handle government affairs. This is called Wang Jungui's return. The wisdom of our ancestors in ancient times is incomparable to that of today. Nowadays, it is all high-tech and mechanized. Our ancestors manually carved bit by bit and left us such smart buildings.
