故宫三百字导游词（最新20篇）

大家好，我是北京旅行社的导游，名叫，欢迎来自朋友来到北京参观故宫，我会陪同大家一起游览故宫，大家在参观的过程中有疑问的地方可以问我。

故宫建于公元1406年，南北长961米，东西宽763米，面积约723600平方米，大小院子有90多座，房屋有980多座，共计7078间。故宫的前半部分建筑形象是严肃、庄严、壮丽、雄伟的，以象征皇上的至高无上。后半部分叫内廷，则富有生活气息，建筑多事自成院落，有花园、书斋、馆榭、山石等。

现在我们马上就到乾清宫了。乾清宫是内廷的正殿，高20米，殿的正中央有宝座，内有“正大光明”匾，两头有暖阁。清康熙前此处为皇帝居住和处理政务之处。清雍正后皇帝移居养心殿，但仍在此处批阅奏折、选派官吏和召见下臣。请大家注意，在解散之后，不要随便触摸这些古老的文物，以防破损。

下面我们要去御花园，请大家排好队。

御花园里有高耸的松柏，珍贵的花木、山石和亭阁。御花园原名叫宫后苑，占地11000多平方米，有建筑20余处。以钦安殿为中心，园林建筑采用主次相辅、左右对称的格局，布局紧凑，古典富丽，可以说是保存的古亭中最为华丽的花园了。注意事项：如果大家有垃圾，请及时扔到垃圾箱里，不要丢在故宫里。

谢谢大家今天的参观，再见!

各位游客大家好，

我们此次游览的景点是世界文化遗产、国家 4A级景区、国家重点文物保护单位——沈阳故宫。首先呢，我们一起来看一下沈阳故宫的平面图。

沈阳故宫始建于公元1620xx年。先后经过三次大规模建设，形成了东、中、西三路格局。东路建立于清太祖努尔哈赤时期，主要建筑是大政殿和十王庭;中路建于清太宗皇太极时期，主要的建筑是大清门、崇政殿、凤凰楼、清宁宫;西路呢，建于清乾隆年间，主要建筑是戏台、嘉荫堂、文溯阁和仰熙斋，它因存放《四库全书》而闻名。那么作为我国现存最完好的两座古代帝王宫殿之一呢，沈阳故宫与北京故宫遥相呼应，却又有着截然不同的建筑风格。现在呢我们就来领略一下昔日皇宫的风采。

首先我们看到的是中路建筑的大清门，它俗称午门，也就是沈阳故宫的正门。是当时文武群臣候朝的地方，也是清太宗皇太极接受群臣谢恩之处。那么这座门为什么叫做大清门呢?正统的说法是清朝的国号为清，皇宫的正门就是国门，所以称为大清门。还有一个传说，这座木门呢在建成之后呢并没有名称，只是叫做大门。后来，皇太极改国号为大清，听说北京明朝皇宫的宫门叫大明门，于是为了体现针锋相对，就将此门命名为大清门。

我们穿过大清门，现在正面的建筑就是崇政殿。崇政殿原名“正殿”，俗称金銮殿。崇德元年定名为崇政殿。它是皇太极日常处理军政要务、接见外国使臣和边疆少数民族代表的地方。

我们可以看到崇政殿为五间九檩硬山式建筑，殿顶铺黄琉璃瓦，镶绿剪边，那么请各位游客注意的是殿顶的琉璃瓦，有去过北京故宫的朋友一定会清楚地记得北京故宫的琉璃瓦是黄色的，而沈阳的琉璃瓦是黄色镶绿剪边。那么这是沈阳故宫与北京故宫的重要差别之一。

我们走上月台。那么在月台两侧分别有用于计时的日晷，和用于存放标准计量单位的嘉量亭。我们看到在月台上呢还设有四口大缸，那么大家知道它们是做什么用的吗?那我告诉大家吧，他叫做“吉祥缸”古代称它是“门海”，是皇宫中重要的防火设施，象征缸中水多似海，可以镇火灾。

我们走上须弥座。抬头看上方的牌匾是用满文和汉文书写的“崇政殿”。请游客看左边的满文，我们有个形象的比喻“中间一根棍，两边都是刺，加上圈和点，就是满文字儿”。那么沈阳故宫的牌匾都是满文在左，汉文在右。而北京故宫的牌匾都是汉文在左，满文在右。那么这是沈阳故宫与北京故宫的差别之二。

我们抬头看崇政殿内上方悬挂的“正大光明”匾额，是由顺治皇帝手谕的。下面呢是皇帝的宝座，据说宝座上绘制雕刻有8条金龙，再加上坐在宝座上的真龙天子，正好是中国古代最大的阳数九条龙。现在崇政殿呢，我们就游览到这里。

眼前的雄伟建筑呢，就是凤凰楼。它建在3.8米高的青砖台基上，为三层歇山式建筑。它原名翔凤楼，是皇太极休息、宴会和读书之所。我们看到正门上方悬挂的“紫气东来”横匾呢，是由乾隆皇帝手谕的。意思是大清朝国运强盛的福气是从东方的盛京传来的。那么凤凰楼不仅是当时后宫的正门，又是当时盛京城的最高建筑，所以有“凤楼晓日”之称，并被列为盛京八景之一。传说呀当年站在凤凰楼上就可以看到抚顺城呢。

故宫位于北京市城区中心，是明、清两代的皇宫，是当今世界上现存规模大、建筑雄伟、保存完整的古代皇家宫殿。故宫又叫紫禁城。紫禁城是中国五个多世纪以来的权力中心，它以园林景观和容纳了家具及工艺品的9000个房间的庞大建筑群，成为明清时代中国文明无价的历史见证。1987年，北京故宫被联合国教科文组织列入《世界遗产名录》。

故宫座北朝南，开有四条门。故宫的正门叫午门，意思是正午的太阳光芒四射。在10米高的城墙上耸立着五座崇楼，楼顶飞檐翅起，从上面看就象五只展翅欲飞的凤凰，故午门又称五凤楼。它建成于公元1420xx年，位于端门之北，雄伟壮观。此外午门的门洞为明三暗五，就是说从南面看是有3个门洞，从北面看是5个门洞。

进入故宫首先出现在面前的是五座汉白玉石桥，它们象征五德，即仁、义、礼、智、信，是皇帝集美好的品质为一身的意思。金水桥下是内金水河，跨过金水桥就来到了太和门广场，这里就是明代皇帝御门听政时百官待驾的地方。

亲爱的游客朋友们，大家好。欢迎你们来故宫游玩。我叫李依璋，大家可以叫我李导或小李。今天由我带领大家一起探索世界遗产——故宫。

Dear friends, hello. You are welcome to visit the Forbidden City. My name is Li Yizhang, you can call me lee or xiao li. Led by me today everybody together to explore the world heritage - the Forbidden City.

我们先来了解一下故宫吧!故宫位于北京中心，旧称紫禁城。故宫宫殿建筑均是木结构、黄琉璃瓦顶、青白石底座，饰以金碧辉煌的彩画。

We first to know about the Palace Museum! The Palace Museum is located in the center of Beijing, used to be called the Forbidden City. The Forbidden City palace buildings are wood, yellow glazed tile roof, green white stone base, decorated with resplendent and magnificent painting.

现在我们在故宫内庭最前面的是乾清宫。乾清宫是内庭正殿，高20米。殿的正中央是宝座，内有“正大光明”匾。乾清宫是封建皇帝的寝宫，清康熙前此处为皇帝居住和处理政务之处。清雍正后皇帝移居养心殿，但仍在此批阅奏报，选派官史和召见臣下。

Now we are in the front Chambers of the imperial palace is the palace of heavenly purity. Palace of heavenly purity is the main hall, the main of which was 20 metres high. The center of the temple is the throne, there are "legitimate" plaque. Palace of heavenly purity is the living quarters for the feudal emperor, the qing emperor kangxi to the emperor lived here before and dealing with affairs. After the qing yongzheng emperors moved to yangxin dian, but still played in the reviews, history and summoned liegeman appointed officer.

现在我们来到了坤宁宫，在故宫中间的是坤宁宫，雍正后，西暖阁为萨满的祭祀地。其中东暖阁为皇帝大婚洞房，康熙同治、光绪二帝，均在此举行婚礼。还有许多殿比如：东六宫、交泰殿、西六宫……

Now we came to the palace of earthly tranquility, in the Forbidden City is in the middle of the palace of earthly tranquility, yongzheng, west NuanGe for the sacrifice of the shaman. Its Middle East NuanGe for wedding bridal chamber, the emperor kangxi managment, two emperor, were held in the wedding. House there are many such as: east sixth, hand over tai temple, west sixth...

好啦，我的介绍就先到这里，请大家慢欣赏游玩。还有大家记住哦!在浏览时不乱扔垃圾，不触摸物品，不踩踏一草一木，这样才能欣赏到有着历史气息的故宫。祝大家玩得开心，玩得尽兴。

Ok, I will first come here, please slowly appreciate. And you remember oh! When browsing dont litter, dont touch items, dont trample objects, so you can see the air has a history of the Forbidden City. I wish you all have fun and play.

中国明清两代的皇宫，又称紫禁城，地点位于北京城中心。开始建造与明永乐四年至十八年，也就是现在说的142019年至1420年，后来经过多个朝代的劳动人民细心修改，变的非常的富丽堂皇，但仍保持着原来的布局和规模，，是世界上保存的最完整、规模最大的古代木构架宫殿建筑群。最先的设计人是蔡信、阮安等，主持施工的人是蒯详、陆详等，名字里都有详哦!

我们说完了北京故宫的历史和人物建造，现在该说说外观和排列顺序了吧!

这座城设四个门，南门正中面是午门、北边是神武门、东为东华门，西为西华门，四门个建有重檐庑殿顶门楼。这座城的四个角都还布有一些结构精巧、外观秀丽的角楼。外面的墙有10米多高呢!还有护城河宽52米，够宽的吧!长3800米，整个建筑群按南北中间的中轴线为对称布局，层次分明，主次有序。

听完了一以上那些，你应该对北京故宫有些了解了吧!可能你还不知道把，连皇帝的住所都是那么井井有条!

前三殿是全宫最大的建筑群，占地面积有达8.5万平方米，是宫城的12%，后三供则为前三殿的25%，期于宫殿依次递减，主要突出前三殿、后三宫的主要地位。1961年定位中国第一批全国重点文物保护单位，已被联合过教科文组织列为世界文化遗产。

各位游客大家好，我是旅行社的导游员，我姓宋，在接下来的几天当中，我将陪伴大家共同游览北京的名胜风景，希望通过我的讲解，能够是您对北京留下非常美好的印象，同时也希望您能对我的工作提出宝贵的意见。好，现在我们就开始今天的游览行程吧。

故宫占地72万平方米，其中建筑面积为16.3万平方米，南北长961米，东西宽753米，周围有10米高的城墙环绕，还有宽52米的护城河，在四角都建有一座精美的角楼。根据1973年的统计，故宫有大小院落90多座，房屋有980座，共计8704间。明朝永乐皇帝朱棣登基不久，在永乐四年，也就是1406年下诏营建北京紫禁城。修建分为两个阶段，第一阶段是从永乐四年开始备料，而第二阶段就是在永乐十五年，1417年六月开始动工兴建，历时14年，在永乐十八年，1420年完工。在建造过程中，征集了全国10万名能工巧匠和民夫100万人，而建筑材料都来自全国各地，比如汉白玉石来北京房山，金砖来自苏州，石灰来自河北易州，五色虎皮石来自河北蓟县盘山，殿基所用的精砖石来自山东临清，松木多来自东北，而楠木多来自四川、云贵、浙江等地，可见当时工程的浩大。故宫基本上是按照明中都皇宫的蓝图而修建的，布局规划遵循了《周礼·考工计》的都城设计礼制：前朝后寝，左祖右社。大致分为南北两个部分，南半部位前朝，北半部则为后寝。前朝是以太和、中和、保和三大殿为中心，文华殿和武英殿为东西两翼，是皇帝举行朝会的地方。而后寝则是以乾清、交泰、坤宁这后三殿以及东西六宫、御花园为中心，外东路、外西路的建筑为主，是皇帝处理日常政务和后宫皇妃居住、祭祀的地方。左祖右社是这样布局的：在午门外东侧是皇帝祭祖的场所太庙，西侧则是祭社稷的场所社稷坛。按照这种布局建筑而成的故宫就是明清两代24位皇帝的皇宫，其中明朝14位，清朝10位，统治时间总共长达五个世纪。由于它在中国历史上的特殊地位和它精美的建筑群体，所以在1987年被联合国教科文组织收录到了《世界文化遗产名录》当中，成为世界上规模最大、保存最完整的宫殿建筑群。现在在北京有一条贯穿南北的中轴线，被梁思成先生称为伟大的中轴线，全长8.5公里，南起永定门，北到钟楼，其中包括故宫在内的皇城就占了三分之一。这条中轴线也叫做龙脉，线上的景山是内城的中心点，也是故宫的镇山。

我们有时候还把故宫叫做紫禁城，而它的名称是怎样得来的呢？我国古代天文学家把天上的主要恒星分为三垣、四象和二十八星宿。三垣是太微垣、紫微垣和天市垣。其中紫薇垣居中，是天上皇帝所居住的地方，称为紫宫。封建帝王自称是天帝的儿子，所以他们也把自己居住的皇宫象征为天上的紫宫。而且皇帝居住的地方戒备森严，不许庶民百姓接近，是绝对的禁地，又称为禁宫，所以这里也被叫做紫禁城。这里共有四道门，分别是午门、神武门、东华门和西华门。而紫禁城的正门就是午门，因为在罗盘上，上午的代表正南，所以午门也是南大门的意思。它的平面呈“凹”字型，从汉代的门阙形制演变过来。下端有高12米的墩台，正中的墩台上面有门楼，两侧还设有钟鼓亭，东西两侧突出的部分叫观，上部各有廊庑13间，两端还建有重檐攒尖方亭。中央的广场叫阙。在明清两代，这里是朝廷举行颁朔大典和献俘典礼的地方。正中开了三道门，两侧都有掖门，这种做法称为“明三暗五”。五个门洞都有各自的用途：中门是皇帝专用的，或者皇帝大婚的时候，皇后可以从这里入宫，科考三甲也可以从这里入宫；平时，文武百官走左门，宗室王公走右门；掖门只有在大型活动的时候才开，三品以下的官员按照文东武西分别通过东西掖门，外国使节要从西掖门才可以入宫；在殿试的时候，考生分单双号，从东西掖门中通过。

在太和门两旁还有两道门，就是德昭门和贞度门。每逢皇帝出宫，都要在太和门换车，而且皇帝大婚的时候，皇后也要从太和门进入皇宫。在光绪四年的时候就发生了这样一件事：在光绪皇帝大婚前夕，太和门突然被火烧毁了，可是大婚当后要从这里经过，所以朝廷就在北京寻找了能工巧匠，连夜用彩绸还有木料搭建了一座假的太和门，才使得婚礼如期进行，而在第二年，太和门才重建完成。

过了太和门我们就进入了太和殿广场，它面积有3万多平方米，在每年的元旦、冬至、还有皇帝生日以及一些重大活动的时候，都要在太和殿以及太和殿广场举行隆重的朝礼。

现在我们面前这座宏伟的建筑就是太和殿了，它和中和殿还有保和殿是建立在一个土字型的三层台基上，台基南北长230米，高8.13米，在四周围还建有一些楼阁，其实就是清朝内务府所管辖的库房。太和殿是故宫中最高最大的建筑，面积有2377平方米，通高35.05米，面阔11间，进深5间。其实在明朝奉天殿的时候，这里市面阔9间，进深5间的大殿，到了清朝年间，将它改为了现在的大小，其实在两侧的夹室是封闭的，不能作为正殿使用，所以实际上还市面阔9间，进深5间，同时，也将它改名为太和殿。太和二字出自于《周易》中的：“保合大和”，而太和的观念是上古天人和一观念的延伸，强调了君臣之间，人与自然之间还有个民族之间的和谐。在太和殿的屋顶正脊上还有一个高3.36米的大吻，往下还有11个垂脊兽，在我国古代，异兽的数量越多，代表了殿宇等级越高。在殿内有72根大住支撑，当中的六根是沥粉贴金云龙图案的金柱，上面支撑了藻井，再藻井当中雕刻有蟠龙，龙口中衔有轩辕镜。轩辕二字出自于我国古代天文学中的轩辕星，意思就是轩辕黄帝之星，也是掌管雷雨之星，在殿顶上建有藻井，一是为了代表当朝的皇帝才是中华民族的正统继承人，第二则是起到了镇火的作用。

殿内的陈设也非常的多。金銮宝座是明代的遗物，清朝的皇帝继续使用。在袁复辟的时候，曾经将它换成了一个中西合璧，不伦不类类似沙发的座椅，解放以后，专家们在家具库中发现了原来的宝座，经过一年多的整修，终于恢复了它本来的面貌。

殿内的地平床高6尺多，上面设有屏风，宝座等，在台面上还有香亭、仙鹤等等。在皇帝上朝的时候，就要点燃檀香，烘托出一种神秘的气氛。殿中有一只象，身上驼着宝瓶，里面放有五谷，寓意天下太平，吉庆有余。而象身四脚立地，稳如泰山，象征社会和政权的稳固。称为太平有象。角端，是传说中的一种神兽，象征着当今皇帝是圣明之君。仙鹤被古人认为是一种长寿鸟，象征着江山长存。香亭是从香炉演变而来的，放在殿中，象征着国家安定。

在太和殿外还有很多的陈设。日 ：是我国古代的计时器，在此处标准的北京时间

中和殿在明朝的时候曾经叫做华盖殿和中极殿，在顺治年间改为中和殿，取自《礼记·中庸》“中也者，天下之大本也；和也者，天下之达道也。”殿名体现了儒家的中庸思想在明清两代举行大潮礼的时候，皇帝在赶赴太和殿之前，都要在中和殿稍作休息，接受官员朝贺。在遇到重大祭典的时候，还要在前一日阅览祝文或者检查种子农具。清朝规定每十年都要修一次皇室的家谱，也就是玉牒，在修订好以后，就要在中和殿内让皇帝阅览，并举行存放仪式。

过了中和殿，我们就来到了保和殿，明朝这里曾经叫做谨身殿，建极殿，顺治年间改为中和殿，名称来源与太和殿相同，都是保合大和之意。保和殿在明清两代用途不同。明朝的时候，在举行册立大典的时候，皇帝都要在保和殿内更衣。在年底，还要在此宴请文武百官。在清朝的时候，每逢正月十五，除夕，也都要在此举行宴会。而且这里还是清朝举行殿试的地方。在保和殿后，有一个巨大的云龙石雕，是艾叶青石雕刻而成的。清朝乾隆年间，将原来明代所雕刻的花纹去掉，重新雕琢。石雕高16.57米，宽3.07米，厚1.7米，重达200多吨。在石雕四周都是卷草纹，下端是海水江牙纹，中央是飞云簇拥的九条蛟龙。制作非常精美，是难得的石雕珍品。这块石头是来自北京的房山，搬动这块石头的时候动用了很多的人力物力。不过这块石头为什么会在保和殿后面，史料上是没有记载的，根据专家推测，可能是因为这块石头运过来以后就放在这里，想要重新移动非常的困难，所以就放在了这里。

游览完了前三殿，就来到了后寝区的正门乾清门。在后寝区有15宫，专家认为，这与天文学中的紫薇垣和八卦都有象征性的关系。

在清朝康熙年间，乾清门就是举行御门听政的地方，而在西侧还有一排连房，就是军机处，他是在雍正年间设立的，直到辛亥革命爆发的时候才被废除。军机处是一个非常重要的机构，凌驾于内阁之上，但是当时为了防止泄密事件的发生，督察院每天都要派御史到军机处旁边的内务府值班，监视这里的活动。

现在大家看到的就是乾清宫了。乾清二字取自唐代韩愈《六合圣德诗》中的诗句：“乾清坤夷”，意思就是天下清和，各地平安。在明朝和清朝初年，皇帝的寝宫一直都是这里，到了雍正皇帝以后，就挪到了养心殿，从此，乾清宫九成了皇帝听政的地方。在每年过节的时候，皇帝都要在乾清宫举行庆典活动，清朝康熙乾隆年间，还在宫内举行了“千叟宴”。而且“康熙智擒鳌拜”的故事也发生在这里。而且皇帝死后，必须要在这里停灵，祭奠15日，表示寿终正寝，之后才可以转移到其他地方。在乾清宫内正中设有金漆宝座，后面还有屏风，上面刻有先帝的圣训。在宝座上方还高悬着“正大光明”的匾额。在雍正皇帝即位以后，对于争夺皇位的种种弊病，他发布了秘密立储的上谕，从而改变了封建王朝公开册礼太子的制度。此后，皇帝亲自写储君谕旨两份，一份儿放在这块正大光明的匾额后边，另一份儿则自己藏起来。在皇帝去世以后，拿出两份诏书核对无误以后，即可生效。

在乾清宫的后边就是交泰殿，取自《易经》中的天地交泰，象征着帝后生活和谐。在殿中央放有25颗宝玺，上方高悬着康熙皇帝御书、乾隆临摹的“无为”匾额。东侧陈设着我国古代人民发明的计时器——铜壶滴漏，西侧陈设着大自鸣钟一座。此在，在每年皇后的生日，皇后都要在交泰殿接受庆贺礼，就连皇太后还有皇帝都要来这里庆贺。在每年皇后到先蚕坛举行仪式的前一天都要在这里检阅采桑工具。

大家好，我是今天你们大家这次旅游的导游。我姓曾，大家可以叫我曾导。

现在你们面前的是“外朝”的大门——太和门。故宫分“外朝”和“内廷”两大部分。穿过这扇门，就可以看到故宫三大殿中的最大的一个——太和殿。绕过太和殿，就可以看到中和殿和保和殿。这些就是故宫的三大殿。

看完三大殿，你前面的就是“内廷”的大门——乾清门。这扇门是“外朝”和“内廷”的交点，乾清门以南为“外朝”，以北为“内廷”。穿过这扇门，就可以看到乾清宫。乾清宫后面有交泰殿和坤宁宫。这三座宫殿就是“内廷”中的主要部分。“内廷”的东西翼还有东六宫和西六宫，是宫妃们住的地方。

好了，现在请大家自由参观。

大家好欢迎来到世界遗产长城，我是钟鑫雨大家能够叫我小钟。长城是世界的遗产，它无比的长，像一条长龙盘旋在山腰，长城是古代劳动人民建筑的，只要想到有很多人死在那里，情绪就无比的沉重。

那是没有举重机等一切有用的工具，机器，只靠无数双手无数肩膀，不怕严寒酷暑，付出多少人民的鲜血才凝结成这前不见头后不见尾的万里长城。所以请游客们保护好我们的万里长城。小朋友们请紧跟着大家走，以免走丢，也不要在洁白的墙砖上乱涂乱画，这是对古代劳动人民的不尊重。

长城有很多的景点，说也说不完看也看不够。此刻请大家尽情的去欣赏长城的美景吧!也请大家在游玩的时候不要乱丢果皮纸屑等一切垃圾，否则我们美丽的长城就变成垃圾厂了，如果乱丢果皮，别人踩到就会滑倒，为了游客们的安全问题，请不要到危险的地方去玩耍拍照。长城的美景等待着你们，快去参观吧!下午三点在那里集合，祝大家玩的愉快!

游客朋友们大家好，首先欢迎大家的到来，我叫王格申，是你们的导游，大家能够叫我王导，年长的游客们也能够直接称呼我小王，好了，先给大家讲讲我们的行程，我们第一个要去的地方就是我们的沈阳故宫。

说道故宫，大家肯低昂想到的都是北京故宫，启示不用到北京也能看到故宫的，没错那就是沈阳故宫，沈阳故宫是我国仅存的两大宫殿建筑群之一，另外一个不用我多说大家就应都明白是哪一个了吧，沈阳故宫占地6万多平方米，宫内建筑物保存完好。

此刻大家就在沈阳故宫的门口，大家都看到了它的规模比占地72万平方米的北京故宫要小得多，但是，它在建筑上有自我的特色，这些就需要有颗朋友们自我去体会品味了，那里此刻是沈阳最重要的游览点。

沈阳故宫建于1625年，是后金第一代汗努尔哈赤开始修筑。努尔哈赤死后，第二代汗皇太极继续修建成功。沈阳故宫的建筑布局能够分为三路。东路为清太祖努尔哈赤时期建造的大政殿与十王亭。中路为清太宗皇太极时期续建的大中阙，包括大清门、崇政殿、凤凰楼以及清宁宫、关睢宫、衍庆宫、启福宫等。西路则是乾隆时期增建的文溯阁、嘉荫堂和仰熙斋等。乾隆时皇宫已在北京，但他有时也“东巡”回沈阳看看。

此刻我们来到了沈阳故宫的东路，那里是很有特色的。大政殿居中，两旁分列十个亭子，称为十王亭。大政殿是一座八角重檐亭子建筑，正门有两根盘龙柱，以示庄严。大政殿是用来举行大典，如颁布诏书，宣布军队出征，迎接将士凯旋和皇帝即位等的地方。从建筑上看，大政殿也是一个亭子，但是它的体量较大，装饰比较华丽，因此，称为宫殿。大政殿和成八字形排开的十座亭子。其建筑格局乃脱胎于少数民族的帐殿。这十一座亭子，就是十一座帐篷的化身。帐篷是能够流动、迁移的，而亭子就固定起来了。这也显示了少数民族文化的一个发展。崇政殿是沈阳故宫最重要的建筑，在中路，是皇太极日常临朝的地方。崇政殿北有一凤凰楼，三层，是当时盛京城内最高的建筑物。沈阳故宫博物馆所陈列的多半是旧皇宫遗留下来的宫廷文物。如努尔哈赤用过的剑，皇太极用过的腰刀和鹿角椅等。沈阳故宫博物馆陈列的艺术品也很丰富。在绘画陈列室里，有明、清两代一些大师的作品如清李鳟、金农、明文征明书画精品、陶瓷、雕刻、织乡、漆器等工艺品。

我的讲解就差不多，此刻给大家一点时光自我去观赏一下，半个小时候我们在那里集合，多谢大家的配合。

故宫位于北京市中心，也称“紫禁城”。这里曾居住过24个皇帝，是明清两代(公元1368～1920xx年)的皇宫，现辟为“故宫博物院”。故宫的整个建筑金碧辉煌，庄严绚丽，被誉为世界五大宫之一(北京故宫、法国凡尔赛宫、英国白金汉宫、美国白宫、俄罗斯克里姆林宫)，并被联合国科教文组织列为“世界文化遗产”。 故宫的宫殿建筑是中国现存最大、最完整的古建筑群，总面积达72万多平方米，有殿宇宫室9999间半，被称为“殿宇之海”，气魄宏伟，极为壮观。无论是平面布局，立体效果，还是形式上的雄伟堂皇，都堪称无与伦比的杰作。 一条中轴贯通着整个故宫，这条中轴又在北京城的中轴线上。三大殿、后三宫、御花园都位于这条中轴线上。在中轴宫殿两旁，还对称分布着许多殿宇，也都宏伟华丽。这些宫殿可分为外朝和内廷两大部分。外朝以太和、中和、保和三大殿为中心，文华、武英殿为两翼。内廷以乾清宫、交泰殿、坤宁宫为中心，东西六宫为两翼，布局严谨有序。故宫的四个城角都有精巧玲珑的角楼，建造精巧美观。宫城周围环绕着高10米，长3400米的宫墙，墙外有52米宽的护城河。 现在，故宫的一些宫殿中设立了综合性的历史艺术馆、绘画馆、分类的陶瓷馆、青铜器馆、明清工艺美术馆、铭刻馆、玩具馆、文房四宝馆、玩物馆、珍宝馆、钟表馆和清代宫廷典章文物展览等，收藏有大量古代艺术珍品，据统计共达1052653件，占中国文物总数的六分之一，是中国收藏文物最丰富的博物馆，也是世界著名的古代文化艺术博物馆，其中很多文物是绝无仅有的无价国宝。

故宫建筑形式

故宫严格地按《周礼·考工记》中“前朝后寝，左祖右社”的帝都营建原则建造。整个故宫，在建筑布置上，用形体变化、高低起伏的手法，组合成一个整体。在功能上符合封建社会的等级制度。同时达到左右均衡和形体变化的艺术效果。中国建筑的屋顶形式是丰富多彩的，在故宫建筑中，不同形式的屋顶就有10种以上。以3大殿为例，屋顶各不相同。故宫建筑屋顶满铺各色琉璃瓦件。主要殿座以黄色为主。绿色用于皇子居住区的建筑。其它蓝、紫、黑、翠以及孔雀绿、宝石蓝等五色缤纷的琉璃，多用在花园或琉璃壁上。太和殿屋顶当中正脊的两端各有琉璃吻兽，稳重有力地吞住大脊。吻兽造型优美，是构件又是装饰物。一部分瓦件塑造出龙凤、狮子、海马等立体动物形象，象征吉祥和威严，这些构件在建筑上起了装饰作用。

故宫前部宫殿，当时建筑造型要求宏伟壮丽，庭院明朗开阔，象征封建政权至高无上，太和殿坐落在紫禁城对角线的中心，四角上各有十只吉祥瑞兽，生动形象，栩栩如生。故宫的设计者认为这样以显示皇帝的威严，震慑天下。后部内廷却要求庭院深邃，建筑紧凑，因此东西六宫都自成一体，各有宫门宫墙，相对排列，秩序井然，再配以宫灯联对，绣榻几床，都是体现适应豪华生活需要的布置。内廷之后是宫后苑。后苑里有岁寒不雕的苍松翠柏，有秀石迭砌的玲珑假山，楼、阁、亭、榭掩映其间，幽美而恬静。

故宫宫殿是沿着一条南北向中轴线排列，三大殿、后三宫、御花园都位于这条中轴线上。并向两旁展开，南北取直，左右对称。这条中轴线不仅贯穿在紫禁城内，而且南达永定门，北到鼓楼、钟楼，贯穿了整个城市，气魄宏伟，规划严整，极为壮观。

故宫是几百年前劳动人民智能和血汗的结晶。初建时被奴役的劳动者有工匠十万，夫役百万。在当时社会生产条件下，能建造这样宏伟高大的建筑群，充分反映了中国古代劳动人民的高度智能和创造才能。同时，为了修建故宫，如所需的木材，在明代时，大多采自四川、广西、广东、云南、贵州等地，无数劳动人民被迫在崇山峻岭中的原始森林里，伐运木材。所用石料多采自北京远郊和距京郊二三百里的山区。每块石料往往重达几吨甚至几十、几百吨，如现在保和殿后檐的台阶，有一块云龙雕石重约250吨。

建筑学家们认为故宫的设计与建筑，实在是一个无与伦比的杰作，它的平面布局，立体效果，以及形式上的雄伟、堂皇、庄严、和谐，建筑气势雄伟、豪华壮丽，是中国古代建筑艺术的精华。它标志着中国悠久的文化传统，显示着五百多年前匠师们在建筑上的卓越成就。

站在高山上看故宫，根本看不到一个窗户，是为了防止刺客找路。大门前有两个铁缸，是防火的，里面盛满了水。

故宫四门

故宫有四个大门，正门名为午门。其平面为凹形，宏伟壮丽。午门后有五座精巧的汉白玉拱桥通往太和门。东门名东华门，西门名西华门，北门名神武门。故宫的四个城角都有精巧玲珑的角楼，角楼高27.5米，十字屋脊，三重檐迭出，四面亮山，多角交错，是结构奇丽的建筑。

故宫的正门叫“午门”，俗称五凤楼。东西北三面以12米高的城台相连，环抱一个方形广场。有1组建筑。正中有重楼，是9间面宽的大殿，重檐庑殿顶，在左右伸出两阙城墙上，建有联檐通脊的楼阁四座，明廊相连，两翼各有13间的殿屋向南伸出，四隅各有高大的角亭，辅翼着正殿。这种形状的门楼称为“阙门”，是中国古代大门中最高级的形式。这组城上的建筑，形势巍峨壮丽，是故宫宫殿群中第一高峰。午门是皇帝下诏书、下令出征的地方。每遇宣读皇帝圣旨，颁发年历书，文武百官都要齐集午门前广场听旨。午门当中的正门平时只有皇帝才可以出入，皇帝大婚时皇后进一次，殿试考中状元、榜眼、探花的三人可以从此门走出一次。文武大臣进出东侧门，宗室王公出入西侧门。

后门“神武门”，明朝时为“玄武门”，玄武为古代四神兽之一，从方位上讲，左青龙，右白虎，前朱雀，后玄武，玄武主北方，所以帝王宫殿的北宫门多取名“玄武”。清康熙年间因避讳改称“神武门”。神武门也是一座城门楼形式，用的最高等级的重檐庑殿式屋顶，但它的大殿只有五开间加围廊，没有左右向前伸展的两翼，所以在形制上要比午门低一个等级。神武门是宫内日常出入的门禁。现神武门为故宫博物院正门。

东华门与西华门遥相对应，门外设有下马碑石，门内金水河南北流向，上架石桥1座，桥北为三座门。东华门与西华门形制相同，平面矩形，红色城台，白玉须弥座，当中辟3座券门，券洞外方内圆。城台上建有城楼，黄琉璃瓦重檐庑殿顶，城楼面阔5间，进深3间，四周出廊。

在午门以内，有广阔的大庭院，当中有弧形的内金水河横亘东西，北面就是外朝宫殿大门——太和门，左右各有朝房 廊庑。金水河上有5座桥梁，装有白色汉白玉栏杆，随河宛转，形似玉带。

三大殿

太和门内，在3万多平方米开阔的庭院中，是外朝的中心：太和殿、中和殿、保和殿，统称三大殿(明朝称：奉天殿、华盖殿、谨身殿，嘉靖时改名：皇极殿、中极殿、建极殿。现名为清朝时名称)。这3座大殿是故宫中的主要建筑，它们高矮造型不同，屋顶形式也不同，显得丰富多样而不呆板。

太和殿和中和殿、保和殿都建在汉白玉砌成的8米高的工字形基台上，太和在前，中和居中，保和在后。远望犹如神话中的琼宫仙阙。基台三层重迭，每层台上边缘都装饰有汉白玉雕刻的栏板、望柱和龙头，三台当中有三层石阶雕有蟠龙，衬托以海浪和流云的“御路”。在25000平方米的台面上有透雕栏板1415块，雕刻云龙翔凤的望柱1460个，龙头1138个。用这样多的汉白玉装饰的三台，造型重迭起伏，这是中国古代建筑上具有独特风格的装饰艺术。而这种装饰在结构功能上，又是台面的排水管道。在栏板地栿石下，刻有小洞口;在望柱下伸出的龙头也刻出小洞口。每到雨季，3台雨水逐层由各小洞口下泄，水由龙头流出，千龙喷水，蔚为壮观。这是科学而又艺术的设计。

太和殿

太和殿(明朝称奉天殿、皇极殿)，俗称“金銮殿”，太和殿高35.05米，东西63米，南北35米，面积约2380多平方米。长宽之比为9：5，寓意为之尊。面积是紫禁城诸殿中最大的一座，而且形制也是最高规格，最富丽堂皇的建筑。太和殿是五脊四坡大殿，从东到西有一条长脊，前后各有斜行垂脊两条，这样就构成五脊四坡的屋面，建筑术语上叫庑殿式。檐角有10个走兽(分别为 龙、凤、狮子、天马、海马、狻猊、押鱼、獬豸、斗牛、行什)，为中国古建筑之特例。大约从14世纪明代起，重檐庑殿是封建王朝宫殿等级最高的形式。太和殿有直径达1米的大柱72根，其中6根围绕御座的是沥粉金漆的蟠龙柱。殿内有沥粉金漆木柱和精致的蟠龙藻井，殿中间是封建皇权的象征——金漆雕龙宝座，设在殿内高2米的台上，安放着金漆雕龙宝座，御座前有造型美观的仙鹤、炉、鼎，背后是雕龙屏。太和殿是故宫中最大的木结构建筑，是故宫最壮观的建筑，也是中国最大的木构殿宇。整个大殿装饰得金碧辉煌，庄严绚丽。太和殿是皇帝举行重大典礼的地方。即皇帝即位、生日、婚礼、元旦等都在这里庆祝。

中和殿

中和殿(明朝称华盖殿、中极殿)是故宫三大殿之一，位于太和殿后。中和殿高27米，平面呈正方形，面阔、进深各为3间，四面出廊，金砖铺地，建筑面积580㎡。黄琉璃瓦单檐四角攒尖顶，正中有鎏金宝顶。四脊顶端聚成尖状，上安铜胎鎏金球形的宝顶，建筑术语上叫四角攒尖式。中和殿是皇帝去太和殿举行大典前稍事休息和演习礼仪的地方。皇帝在去太和殿之前先在此稍作停留，接受内阁大臣和礼部官员行礼，然后进太和殿举行仪式。另外，皇帝祭祀天地和太庙之前，也要先在这里审阅一下写有祭文的“祝版”;在到中南海演耕前，也要在这里审视一下耕具。

保和殿

保和殿(明朝称谨身殿、建极殿)也是故宫三大殿之一，在中和殿后。保和殿高29米，平面呈长方形，面阔9间，进深5间，建筑面积1240㎡。黄琉璃瓦重檐歇山式屋顶。屋顶正中有一条正脊，前后各有2条垂脊，在各条垂脊下部再斜出一条岔脊，连同正脊、垂脊、岔脊共9条，建筑术语上叫歇山式。保和殿是每年除夕皇帝赐宴外藩王公的场所。保和殿也是科举考试举行殿试的地方。

内廷

故宫建筑的后半部叫内廷，内廷宫殿的大门——乾清门，左右有琉璃照壁，门里是后三宫。内廷以乾清宫、交泰殿、坤宁宫为中心，东西两翼有东六宫和西六宫，是皇帝处理日常政务之处也是皇帝与后妃居住生活的地方。后半部在建筑风格上同于前半部。前半部建筑形象是严肃、庄严、壮丽、雄伟，以象征皇帝的至高无上。后半部内廷则富有生活气息，建筑多是自成院落，有花园、书斋、馆榭、山石等。

清代在隆宗门曾发生过一场激烈的战斗。嘉庆十八年(1820xx年)，中原一带发生“天理教”农民起义，农民领袖林清策划并领导京畿一支队伍直接攻打紫禁城。九月十四日，起义军乔装打扮，兵分两路，计划从东、西华门进入宫城。西华门一支在内应太监刘得才、刘金等人引领下迅速攻打到隆宗门，并在此展开激战。此次紫禁城之变，“酿成汉、唐、宋、明未有之事”，嘉庆皇帝破例向天下发了“罪己诏”。至今隆宗门匾额上留有箭头，相传即这次战斗的遗迹。箭头位于匾额的左下侧。

乾清宫在故宫内庭最前面。乾清宫是内廷正殿，高20米。重檐庑殿顶。殿的正中有宝座，内有“正大光明”匾。两头有暖阁。乾清宫是封建皇帝的寝宫。清康熙前此处为皇帝居住和处理政务之处。清雍正后皇帝移居养心殿，但仍在此批阅奏报，选派官吏和召见臣下。

坤宁宫在故宫“内庭”最后面。重檐庑殿顶。坤宁宫是明朝及清朝雍正帝之前的皇后寝宫，两头有暖阁。清代改为祭神场所。雍正后，西暖阁为萨满的祭祀地。其中东暖阁为皇帝大婚的洞房，康熙、同治、光绪三帝，均在此举行婚礼。

交泰殿在乾清宫和坤宁宫之间，含“天地交合、安康美满”之意。其建于明代，清嘉庆三年(公元1798年)重修，是座四角攒尖，镀金宝顶，龙凤纹饰的方形殿。明、清时，该殿是皇后生日举办寿庆活动的地方。清代皇后所谓亲蚕典礼，需至此检查祭典仪式的准备情况。清代的“宝玺”(印章)也收藏在这里。

清朝自雍正之后养心殿成为皇帝在故宫内的实际居所。清同治年间慈禧、慈安二太后垂帘听政就在养心殿东暖阁。

在后三宫东西庑，还有为皇帝存储冠、袍、带、履的端凝殿，放置图书翰墨的懋勤殿。南庑有皇子读书的上书房，有翰林学士承值的南书房，以及管理宫廷日常生活的处所。此外还有左右对称的日精门、月华门、龙光门、凤彩门、基化门、端则门、隆福门、景和门，通妃子居住的东西六宫。这种左右对称的平面布局，也是中国古代建筑的特征之一。

内廷东侧的宁寿宫是当年乾隆皇帝宣布退位后当太上皇养老皇宫，花费一百一十万两银修建。

在坤宁宫北面的是御花园。御花园里有高耸的松柏、珍贵的花木、山石和亭阁。御花园原名宫后苑，占地11000多平方米，有建筑20余处。以钦安殿为中心，园林建筑采用主次相辅、左右对称的格局，布局紧凑、古典富丽。殿东北的堆秀山，为太湖石迭砌而成，上筑御景亭，名为万春亭和千秋亭的两座亭子，可以说是目前保存的古亭中最为华丽的。

东六宫

故宫的东西六宫都是皇帝后妃和子嗣居住的地方。东六宫包含指景仁宫、延禧宫、承干宫、永和宫、钟粹宫、景阳宫，东六宫建于明永乐年间。

东六宫包括钟翠宫，承乾宫，景仁宫，景阳宫，永和宫，延禧宫。其中，东太后慈安就住在钟翠宫。另外，延禧宫也非常有名，因为紫禁城中唯一的一座西洋建筑就在延禧宫内，他就是民间广为流传的水晶宫。延禧宫在道光年间曾遭雷击而毁坏，于是宣统年间清朝统治者决定造一座不怕火的宫殿，于是一座以汉白玉，玻璃为主要材料的宫殿就开始动工了。但当工程进行到一半时，清朝灭亡了，整个工程也被迫停了下来。目前延禧宫现在还没有对外开放。

现在东六宫大都改为古代艺术品陈列馆，其中有明清工艺美术馆、陶瓷馆、青铜器馆、钟表馆、绘画馆、珍宝馆。以参观珍宝馆和钟表馆的人数最多，钟表馆设在奉先殿，珍宝馆设在故宫东北角的养性殿、乐寿堂、颐和轩这在座堂里。玩具陈列馆设在坤宁宫以东的联房叫东板房里。

故宫谜团

冷宫何处

“冷宫”在哪里，要先谈“三宫六院”。故宫中路乾清宫、交泰殿、坤宁宫称为“三宫”。六院分别指东路六宫：斋宫、景仁宫、承乾宫、钟粹宫、景阳宫及永和宫。封建帝王有着“至高无上”的权力，可以随心所欲地挑选妃子。皇帝的妻妾众多。至于选到宫中的女子，一旦失宠，便在宫中禁室里等死，更为悲惨。

故宫的“冷宫”并无定所，但历来有两种说法，一说即是乾清宫、长春宫;一说“冷宫”无固定地址，关禁王妃、皇子的地方，便俗称“冷宫”。查遍所见明、清史料，冷宫并不是某一处宫室的正式命名。根据一些文献记载，明、清时代被作为“冷宫”的地方有好几处。

明末天启皇帝时，成妃李氏得罪了权势赫赫的太监魏忠贤，被由长春宫赶到御花园西面的乾西，一住四年。先后被幽居乾西的，还有定妃、恪嫔等人。这个“冷宫”在紫禁城内之西。

光绪皇帝的珍妃被慈禧落井之前，据说关在景祺阁北边北三所(现坍毁)，这地方就在今天珍妃井西边的山门里。如果这一出自太监之口的传闻属实，则此地也算得一处“冷宫”。

故宫设计者

故宫这样宏伟的建筑，如果浩大的工程，由谁负责设计?又是谁主持施工的?这的确是个历史谜团，难倒不少老北京人。因为故宫的建筑上没有如现代建筑那样明确地刻上此建筑物建于何年，由何人设计等字样。目前大多数人都认为故宫是明代一位杰出的匠师，姓蒯名祥，人称蒯鲁班的人设计的。

故宫博物院古建部高级工程师于倬云先生提出了不同意见：曾经参加建造南京宫殿的蒯祥是故宫的设计者这个说法不确切，其实，蒯祥只是故宫的施工主持人，故宫真正的设计人应该是名不见经传的蔡信。永乐20xx年紫禁城宫殿开始进入大规模施工高潮时，蒯祥才随朱棣从南京来到北京，开始主持宫殿的施工，而在此之前，蔡信已主持故宫和北京城的规划、设计和建造了。

皇帝上朝的地点

现在很多人都认为太和殿平时是用于上朝的，其实不是这样的。太和殿其实是用来举行各种典礼的场所，实际使用次数很少，纵观明清，皇帝上朝的地方主要在：太和门、乾清门(为御门听政)、乾清宫(有大事或重要的事情时皇帝召见大臣所在地)、还有养心殿(垂帘听政，清朝后期)的，并不是平时所说的太和殿。

故宫为何“龙”多

紫禁城是龙的世界，龙的造型千姿百态，栩栩如生。在我国封建社会里，皇帝被称做“真龙天子”，是大地的主宰。紫禁城是明、清两朝的皇宫，因此，宫中的殿堂、桥梁、丹陛、石雕以及帝后宝玺、服饰御用品等无不以龙作为纹饰。那么，故宫里到底有多少龙?恐怕谁也说不清。有人粗算过，故宫号称有宫殿8000多间，仅以每殿有6条龙计算，就有龙近4万条，如果加上所有建筑装饰和一切御用品上的龙，那就数不胜数了。

有人做了一个统计，即，太和殿顶屋脊及瓦当、滴水等共有龙纹2632条，外檐额枋及门窗彩绘包括饰件共有龙纹5732条，殿内檐及殿内梁枋天花上共有龙纹4037条，殿中金柱、藻井、宝座、屏风及陈设上共有龙纹609条，殿内墙壁及暖阁门罩等共有龙纹542条。这是个尚不完全的统计，太和殿内外的龙纹、龙雕等各种形式的龙就有13 844条之多。这种万龙朝圣的装潢设计，构成了一种威严神秘的氛围，以获得神化皇帝、恫吓臣民的效果。

三大殿院内为何不种树

有人撰文提出三大殿院内不种树，主要是出自烘托意境的需要。太和殿、中和殿、保殿并称外朝三大殿，是皇帝举行盛典的地方，从位置上说居整个外宫建筑的中心，也是整个北京城的中心。为了突出这组宫殿的威严气势，建筑上采取了许多手法，其一便是院内不植树，从皇城正门天安门起，经端门、午门、太和门，这之间的一系列庭院内都无树木(现在端门前后的树是辛亥革命以后种植的)。当时人们去朝见天子，进入天安门，经过漫长御道，在层层起伏变化的建筑空间中行进，会感到一种无形的，不断增长的精神压力，最后进入太和门，看到宽阔的广场与高耸在三重台基上的巍峨大殿，这种精神压力达到顶点。宽阔的广场、蓝蓝的天空，把三大殿映衬得更加威严壮观。而这正是至高无上的天子对自己臣民所要求的。如果在这些庭院内都种上树，绿荫宜人，小鸟鸣叫，那将会破坏朝廷的威严氛围。

各位游客您们好，这次由我带领大家去北京故宫，您们可以叫我孔导，希望我能带给大家最好的服务。

不过现在我要提几点要求：1。要保管好自己的贵重物品;2。如果迷路，请马上给我打电话不要离开;3。一定要保护环境。好了，我的要求提完了，请大家自觉遵守!

首先我给大家做一简要介绍，故宫位于北京中心，旧称紫禁城，是明、清两代的皇宫，是当今世界现存规模最大、最雄伟、保存最完整的古代宫殿。至少已有近580年历史了。故宫规模宏大，东西宽为753米，南北长达961米，总占地面积达72万平方米，大约一共有一万间宫室。

各位游客，现在展现在我们眼前的就是气势雄伟的古代宫殿故宫。大家看着四面就是宫墙，四周都是高大的城门，南为午门，北为神武门，东为东华门，西为西华门。

现在请大家跟我一起去故宫中最大的宫殿太和殿看看吧!这里是皇帝上朝的地方，再看那边，中间的是汉白玉雕刻的“双龙戏珠”，两边是汉白玉台阶;台阶的左边是一只乌龟，右边是一只仙鹤，这象征着延年益寿。

我再给大家介绍介绍其他殿吧!现在我们来到了中和殿，中和殿是为帝王去太和殿途中学礼仪之地，保和殿呢?它是由多根红色巨柱支撑着，每根柱上都刻着一条栩栩如生的巨龙，十分壮观，我们再来看看文华殿吧!他是明代皇太子的读书处。乾清门是故宫中外朝和内延的分界处，由此向北就是延。

好了，这次游览结束，祝大家玩的愉快!

亲爱的游客们：

大家好!我是来自环球旅行社的金牌导游——齐浩然，大家可以叫我“小齐”。这次的故宫之旅就由我来带领大家参观。(开门见山开头，直接引出下文，很好!)

好,客车马上就要启动了,我先给大家个绍一下故宫的历史背景。故宫是北京市中心的一座城之城，又叫紫禁城。这是明清两代的.皇宫，是我国现存的最大最完整的古代宫殿建筑群，有近六百年历史了......(背景介绍，过渡，使文章富有内涵!)

到站了,各位游客跟着我走,不要跟丢哦!紫禁城墙有十米多高，有四座城门：南边午门，北边神武门，东西两边分别是东华门和西华门。大家继续向里走，我们沿着这条笔直

的大道行走，就会来到午门前。来,大家看，这就是“午门”。午门俗称“五凤楼”，是紫禁城的正门，往里走是一个宽阔的广场，这条弯弯的小河就像是一条玉带横贯东西，河上有五座精美的汉白玉石桥。桥的北面是太和门。对，就是这位游客指的北方，那里有一对威武的铜狮子守卫在门的两侧。

再往里走，就会看到太和殿、中和殿、保和殿、乾清宫、交泰殿等。在这里我就不过多介绍。接下来是自由活动时间，大家一定要保护好故宫里的环境，不能乱扔垃圾，留下不好的印象。

半天的旅行快结束了，我相信，大家一定有了不同的感觉，(感受)想必中华文明的璀璨历史，一定会给大家留下难以磨灭的印象!

在这里，我也衷心祝愿大家身体健康，万事如意，期待咱们下次再见!

故宫英文导游词

forbidden city(紫禁城)

(in front of the meridian gate)

ladies and gentlemen:

i am pleased to serve as your guide today.

this is the palace museum; also know as the purple forbidden city. it is the largest and most well reserved imperial residence in china today. under ming emperor yongle, construction began in 1406. it took 14years to build the forbidden city. the first ruler who actually lived here was ming emperor zhudi. for five centuries thereafter, it continued to be the residence of23 successive emperors until 1911 when qing emperor puyi was forced to abdicate the throne .in 1987, the united nations educational, scientific and cultural organization recognized the forbidden city was a world cultural legacy.

it is believed that the palace museum, or zi jin cheng (purple forbidden city), got its name from astronomy folklore, the ancient astronomers divided the constellations into groups and centered them around the ziwei yuan(north star). the constellation containing the north star was called the constellation of heavenly god and star itself was called the purple palace. because the emperor was supposedly the son of the heavenly gods, his central and dominant position would be further highlighted the use of the word purple in the name of his residence. in folklore, the term ”an eastern purple cloud is drifting” became a metaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud was seen drifting eastward immediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher, laozi, to the hanghu pass. here, purple is associated with auspicious developments. the word jin (forbidden) is self-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-limits to ordinary people.

the red and yellow used on the palace walls and roofs are also symbolic. red represents happiness, good fortune and wealth. yellow is the color of the earth on the loess plateau, the original home of the chinese people. yellow became an imperial color during the tang dynasty, when only members of the royal family were allowed to wear it and use it in their architecture.

the forbidden city is rectangular in shape. it is 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meter wide from east west. it has 9,900 rooms under a total roof area 150,000 square meters .a 52-meter-wide-moat encircles a 9.9-meter—high wall which encloses the complex. octagon —shaped turrets rest on the four corners of the wall. there are four entrances into the city: the meridian gate to the south, the shenwu gate(gate of military prowess) to the north, and the xihua gate(gate of military prowess) to the north, and the xihua gate(western flowery gate )to the west ,the donghua (eastern flowery gate) to the east.

manpower and materials throughout the country were used to build the forbidden city. a total of 230,000 artisans and one million laborers were employed. marble was quarried from fangshan country mount pan in jixian county in hebei province. granite was quarried in quyang county in hebei province. paving blocks were fired in kilns in suzhou in southern china. bricks and scarlet pigmentation used on the palatial walls came from linqing in shandong province .timber was cut ,processed and hauled from the northwestern and southern regions.

the structure in front of us is the meridian gate. it is the main entrance to the forbidden city. it is also knows as wufenglou(five-phoenix tower). ming emperors held lavish banquets here on the 15th day of the first month of the chinese lunar year in hornor of their counties .they also used this place for punishing officals by flogging them with sticks.

qing emperors used this building to announce the beginning of the new year. qing emperor qianglong changed the original name of this announcement ceremony from ban li(announcement of calendar)to ban shou(announcement of new moon )to avoid coincidental association with another emperor` s name, hongli, which was considered a taboo at that time. qing dynasty emperors also used this place to hold audience and for other important ceremonies. for example,when the imperial army returned victoriously from the battlefield ,it was here that the emperor presided over the ceremony to accept prisoners of war.

(after entering the meridian gate and standing in front of the five marble bridges on golden water river)

now we are inside the forbidden city.before we start our tour, i would like to briefly introduce you to the architectural patterns befour us .to complete this solemn, magnificent and palatial complex, a variety of buildings were arranged on a north-south axis, and 8-kilometer-long invisible line that has become an inseparable part of the city of beijing. the forbidden city covers roughly one –third of this central axis. most of the important building in the forbidden city weree arranged along this line. the design and arrangement of the palaces reflect the solemn dignity of the royal court and rigidly –stratified feudal system.

the forbidden city is divided into an outer and an inner count.we are now standing on the southernmost part of the outer count. in front of us lies the gate of supreme harmony .the gate is guarded by a pair of bronze lions ,symbolizing imperial power and dignity. the lions were the most exquisite and biggest of its kind. the one on the east playing with a ball is a male, and ball is said to represent state unity. the other one is a female. underneath one of its fore claws is a cub that is considered to be a symbol of perpetual imperial succession. the winding brook before us is the golden water river. it functions both as decoration and fire control .the five bridges spanning the river represent the five virtues preached by confucius :benevolence, righteousness, rites, intellence and fidelity. the river takes the shape of a bow and the north-south axis is its arrow. this was meant to show that the emperors ruled the country on behalf of god.

(in front of the gate of supreme harmony)

the forbidden city consists of an outer countyard and an inner enclosure. the out count yard covers a vast space lying between the meridian gate and the gate of heavenly purity. the “three big halls” of supreme harmony, complete harmony and preserving harmony constitute the center of this building group. flanking them in bilateral symmetry are two groups of palaces: wenhua (prominent scholars) and wuying (brave warriors) . the three great halls are built on a spacious “h”-shaped, 8-meter-high, triple marble terrace, each level of the triple terrace is taller than the on below and all are encircled by marble balustrades carved with dragon and phoenix designs. there are three carved stone staircases linking the three architectures .the hall of supreme harmony is also the tallest and most exquisite ancient wooden-structured mansion in all of china. from the palace of heavenly purith northward is what is known as the inner court, which is also built in bilaterally symmetrical patterns. in the center are the palace of heavenly purity, the hall of union and peace and palace of earthly tranquility, a place where the emperors lived with their families and attended to state affairs. flanking these structures are palaces and halls in which concubines and princes lived. there are also three botanical gardens within the inner count, namely, the imperial garden, caning garden and quailing garden. an inner golden water river flows eastwardly within the inner court. the brook winds through three minor halls or palaces and leads out of the forbidden city. it is spanned by the white jade bridge. the river is lined with winding, marble –carved balustrades. most of the structures within the forbidden city have yellow glazed tile roofs.

aside from giving prominence to the north-south axis, other architectural methods were applied to make every group of palatial structures unique in terms of terraces, roofs, mythical monsters perching on the roofs and colored, drawing patterns. with these, the grand contour and different hierarchic spectrum of the complex were strengthened. folklore has it that there are altogether 9,999 room-units in the forbidden city. since paradise only has 10,000 rooms, the son of heaven on earth cut the number by half a room. it is also rumoured that this half –room is located to the west of the wenyuange pavilion (imperial library). as a matter of fact, although the forbidden city has more than 9,000 room-units, this half-room is nonexistent .the wenyuange pavilion is a library where “si ku quan shu”- china `s first comprehensive anthology-was stored.

(after walking past the gate of supreme harmony)

ladies and gentlemen, the great hall we are approaching is the hall of supreme harmony, the biggest and tallest of its king in the forbidden city. this structure covers a total building space of 2,377 square meters, and is know for its upturned, multiple counterpart eaves . the hall of supreme harmony sits on a triple “h”-shaped marble terrace the is 8meters high and linked by staircases. the staircase on the ground floor has 21 steps while the middle and upper stairways each have 9.

the construction of the hall of supreme harmony began in 1406. it burned down three times and was severely damaged once during a mutiny. the existing architecture was built during the qing dynasty. on the corners of the eaves a line of animal-nails were usually fastened to the tiles. these animal-nails were later replace with mythical animals to ward off evil spirits. there are altogether 9 such fasteners on top of this hall. the number nine was regarded by the ancients to be the largest numeral accessible to man and to which only the emperors were entitled.

there was a total of 24 successive emperors during the ming and qing dynasties who were enthroned here. the ball was also used for ceremonies which marked other great occasions: the winter solstice, the chinese lunar new year, the emperor` s birthday, conferral of the title of empress, the announcement of new laws and policies, and dispatches of generals to war .on such occasions, the emperor would hold audience for his court officials and receive their tributes.

this area is called the hall of supreme harmony square, which covers a total of 30,000 square meters, without a single tree or plant growing here, this place inspires visitors to feel its solemnity and grandeur. in the middle of the square there is a carriageway that was reserved for the emperor. on both sides of the road the groud bricks were laid in a special way seven layers lengthwise and eight layers crosswise, making up fifteen layers in all. the purpose of this was to prevent anyone from tunneling his way into the palace. in the count yard there are iron vats for storing water to fight fires. in the whole complex there are altogher 308 water vats. in wintertime, charcoal was burned underneath the vats to keep the water from freezing .why so vast a square? it was designed to impress people with the hall` s grandeur and vastness. imagine the following scene. under the clear blue sky, the yellow glazed tiles shimmered as the cloud-like layers of terrace, coupled with the curling veil of burning incense, transformed the hall of supreme harmony into a fairyland. whenever major ceremonies were held, the glazed, crane-shaped candleholders inside the hall would be it, and incense and pine branches burnt in front of the hall. when the emperor appeared, drums were beaten and musical instrument played. civilian officials and generals would kneel know in submission.

the last qing emperor puyi assumed the throne in 1908, at the age of three, his father carried him to the throne. at the start of the coronation, the sudden drum-beating and loud music caught the young emperor unprepared .he was so scared that he kept crying and shouting,”i don’t want to stay here. i want to go home.” his father tried to soothe him, saying, ”it` all soon be finished .it` all soon be finished ”the ministers present at the event considered this incident inauspicious. coincidentally, the qing dynasty collapsed three years later and there with concluded china `s feudal system that had lasted for more than 2,000 years.

(on the stone terrace of the hall of supreme harmony)

this is a bronze incense burner. in it incense made of sandalwood would be burnt on important occasions. there are altogether 18 incense burners, representing all of the provinces under the rule of the sing monarchs. on either side of the hall, 4 bronze water-filled vats were placed in case of fire. next to the terrace on either side, there is a bronze crane and tortoise, symbols of longevity. this copper-cast grain measure is called ”jialiang.” it served as the national standard during the qing dynasty. it was meant to show that the imperial ruler were just and open to rectification. on the other side there is a stone sundial, an ancient timepiece. the jialiang and the sundial were probably meant to show what the emperor represented: that he was the only person who should possess the standards of both measure and time.

in the very forefront of the hall of supreme harmony , there are 12 scarlet , round pillars supporting the roof. the hall is 63 meters from east to west and 37 meters from north to south, it is 35 meters in height. in front of this architechture, there stands a triple terrace with five staircases leading up to the main entrance .it has 40 gold doors and 16 gold-key windows with colored drawings on the pillars and beams. in the middle of the hall, a throune carved with 9 dragons sits on a 2-meter-high platform. behind the throne there is a golden screen and in front of it, there is a imperial desk . the flanks are decorated with elephants, luduan(a legendary beast), cranes, and incense barrels. the elephant carries a vase on its back that holds five cereals(i. e. rice, two kinds of millet, wheat and beans),which was considered a symbol of prosperity. as ancient legend has it that luduan can travel 18,000 li (9,000 kilometers )in one day and knows all languages and dialects. only to a wise adjust monarch will this beast be a guardian.

the hall of supreme harmony is also popularly known as jinluan dian (gold bell hall or the throne hall). the floor of the hall is laid with bricks that turn it into a smooth, fine surface as if water has been sprinkled on it .the so-called golden brick, in fact, has nothing to do with gold. reserved exclusively for the construction of the royal court, it was made in a secretive, and complex way, and, when struck, sounds like the clink of a gold bar. each brick was worth the market price of one dan (or one hectoliter ) of rice.

the hall is supported by a total of 72 thick pillars .of these, 6 are carved in dragon patterns and painted with gold and surround the throne. above the very center of this hall there is a zaojing, or covered ceiling, which is one of the specialities of china `s ancient architure. in the middle of the ceiling is a design of a dragon playing with a ball inlaid with peals. this copper ball, hollow inside and covered with mercury, is known as the xuanyuan mirror and is thought to be made xuanyuan, a legendary monarch dating back to remote antiquity. the placing of the caisson above the throne is meant to suggest that all of china` s successive emperors are zuanyuan` s descendants and hereditary heirs. now you might have noticed that the xuanyuan mirror is not directly above the throne. why? it is rumored that yuan shikai, a self-acclaimed warlord-turned emperor moved the throne further back because he was afraid that the mirror might fall on him .in 1916 when yuan shikai became emperor, he removed the original throne with a western-style, high-back chair. after the foundation of the people` s republic of china in 1949 the throne was found in a shabby furniture warehouse. it repaired and returned to the hall.

(leading the tourist to the bronze vats either on the east or the west)

the water vats in front of the palaces or house were called “menhai,” or sea before the door by the ancient chinese. they believed that with a sea by the door, fire could not wreak havoc. the vats served both as a decoration and as a fire extinguisher. they were kept full of water all year round.

during the qing dynasty, they were altogether 308 vats in the palace enclosure. they were made of gilt bronze or iron. of couse, the gilt bronze vats were of the best quality. when the allied forces (britain, germany, france, russia, the united states, italy, japan and austria) invaded beijing in 1900 under the pretext of suppressing the boxer rebellion, the invaders ransacked the imperial compound and scraped and gold off the vats with their bayonets. during the japanese occupation of beijing, many vats were trucked away by the japanese to be made into bullets .

(in front of the hall of complete harmony)

the square architecture before us is called the hall of complete harmony. it served as an antechamber. the emperor came here to meet with his countiers and add his final touches to the prayers which would be read at the ancestral temple. the seeds, snowers and prayer intended for spring sowing were also examined here. the two qing sedan chairs here on display were used for traveling within the palace during the reign of emperor qianlong.

(in front of the hall f preserving harmony)

this is the hall of preserving harmony. during the qing dynasty, banquets were held here on new year` s eve in honour of mongolian and northwestern china` s xingjiang princes and ranking officials. the emperor also dinned here with his new son-in-law on the wedding day. imperial examinations were also held here once every three years. during the ming and qing dynasties, there were three levels of exams: the county and prefectural level, the provincial level and national level. the national exam was presided over by the emperor. the civil service exam in ancient china started during the han dynasty. it served the purpose of recruiting confucian scholars to the ministers and high officials. during the tang and qing dynasties reinstituted and ancient system. once every three years, three hundred scholars from all over the country came to beijing and took exams for three day and night. this system was abolished in 1905.

(behind the hall of preserving harmony)

this is the largest stone carving in the palace . it is 16.73 meters long, 3.07 meters wide and 1.7 meters thick .it weighs about 200 tons. the block was quarried in fangshan county, roughly 70 kilometers away. to transport such a huge block to beijing, laborers dug wells along the roadside half a kilometer apart, and used the groundwater to make a road of ice in the winter. rolling blocks were used in the summer. in 1760, emperor qianlong of the qing dynasty ordered the carving of the existing cloud and dragon design in place of the old one which dated back to the ming dynasty.

note : from here, the tour can be conducted via three different routes: a western route(route a), a central route (route b) or an eastern route (route c) .the commentary for each follows.

route a

ladies and gentlemen:

you have seen the three main halls of the forbidden city. now i ` d like to show you around the hall of mental cultivation and the imperial garden . the hall of mental cultivation is situated is in the western part of the innermost enclosure and is symmetrical to fengxian (enshrinement of forebears) hall in the east. this hall was built during the ming dynasty. it is a h-shaped structure consisting of an antechamber and a main building .the hall is surrounded by corridors. in front of the hall is the office of privy council.

before emperor kangxi of qing the dynasty came to power the hall of heavenly purity served as the living quarter of the emperors. emperor yongzheng chose to live in this hall and attended to every day state affairs from here .for the sake of protecting cultural relics, this hall is not open to the public .you can have a look at the inside from the door. the central hall was the audience chamber where the emperor read memorials, granted audience to officials and summoned his minsters for consultation. the western chamber of the hall was where the emperor read reports and discussed military and political affairs. the hall consists of many inner rooms and is decorated with images of buddha and miniature pagodas. on the screen wall there hangs a picture of two emperors in the han costume. in a southern room there three rare calligraphic scrolls, hence the name of the room “sanxitang” (room of three rare treasures) . the room on the eastern side is of historical interst because it was here that empress dowager cixi usurped power and made decisions on behalf of the young emperor . a bamboo curtain was used to separate them .

empress dowage cixi was born in 1835 in lu` an prefecture of shanxi province. she` s of manchurian nationality and her father was a provincial governor from south china. when she was 17 years old ,she was selected to become a concubine of emperor xianfeng and moved into the forbidden city. she gave birth to a son when she was 21years old and was made a concubine the following year. when the emperor passed away in the summer of 1861, her son ascended the throne and title of cixi, meaning “holy mother” was conferred upon her and she became the empress dowager. in that same year empress dowager cixi carried out a count coup d` etat and ruled behind the scenes with another empress dowager, ci` an, for 48 years. she passed away in 1908 at the age of 73. it was in reference to this situation that the term “attending to state affairs behind a bamboo curtain” developed .in 1912 , empress dowager longyu declared the abdication of the last qing emperor puyi. they were allowed to remain in the forbidden city for the next 13 years .the royal family was forced to move out permanently in 1924.

behind the central hall were the living accommodation of 8 successive qing emperors .three of them actually passed away here. the side rooms flanking the hall were reserved for empresses and concubines. now let` s continue with our tour. it will take us to the hall of heavenly purity , the hall of union and peace ,the palace of earthly tranquility, and the imperial garden.

route b

(inside the hall of heavenly purity)

ladies and gentlemen:

the hall of heavenly purity was where the emperors lived during the ming and qing dynasties. according to tradition ,extravagant annual banquets were held here on new year` s eve in honour of royal family members. foreign ambassadors were received here during the late-qing period. two important “one thousand old men` s feasts” of the qing dynasty were also held here. all the invitees had to be at least 65 years of age.

this hall was also used for mourning services.

(inside the palace of union and peace)

this hall sits between the hall of heavenly purity and the palace of earthly tranquility, symbolizing the union of heaven and earth ,as well as national peace .it was first built in 1420 and reconstructed in 1798. the hall is square in shape ,and is smaller than the hall of complete harmony .you will see a plaque here inscribed with two chinese characters, wu wei, which were handwritten by emperor qianglong. a throne sits in the middle of the hall with a screen behind it .above the throne there hangs a caisson ,or covered ceiling. the emperor held birthday celebrations and other major events here.

in 1748 during emperor qianlong` s reign, 25 jade seals representing imperial authority were kept in this hall .no seals were allowed out of the room without the prior consent of the emperor. on each flack there is a water clock and a chiming clock.

(inside the palace of earthly tranquility)

this used to be the central hall where successive ming empresses lived. during the qing dynasty, it was converted into a place where sacrifices and wedding ceremonies were held .the room on the western side was used for sacrifices and the room on the east was the seeding chamber.

(approaching the imperial garden)

behind the palace of earthly tranquility and trading the north-south axis is the imperial garden. there are old trees, rare flowers and exotic rock formation in this garden .it cover a space of 11,700 square meters, or roughly 1.7 percent of the forbidden city. most of the structures in the garden are symmetrically arranged . however, each is different in terms of parrern and decoration. woods clumps of bamboo screen off the garden and strengthens its deep and serene atmosphere.

there main structure of the imperial garden is the qin` an hall. positioned in the central-northern part of the garden ,this hall is flanked by other halls and pavilions on the east and west. the hall sits on a marble pedestal. the taoist deity of zhenwu is enshrined here and emperor would pay homage here a quarterly basis. taoist rites were held during the reign of emperor jiajing of the ming dynasty. in front of the hall there is a cypress that is 400 years old .in all there are a dozen such rare trees in the garden, and most of them are cypresses or pines. to the northwest of the hall , there is the yanhui(sustaining sunshine) pavilion and to the northeast there lies the duixiu (accumulated refinement )hill. this hill was built over the foundation of the long- pershed guanhua (admiring flowers) hall of the ming dynasty. it is 14 meters in height and made of al kinds of rocks quarried in jiang su province. at its base stand two nstone lions, each carrying a dragon shooting water 10 meters up into the air from its mouth. there are meandering paths leading to the hilltop. at the top of duixiu hill sits the yujing (imperial viewing)pavilion. traditionally, on the day of the double ninth festival (the ninth day of the ninth lunar month ), the emperor ,his consort, and his concubines would climb up to yujing pavilion to enjoy the scenery.

各位朋友，欢迎大家来到沈阳，我是你们的导游，沈梦，大家可以叫我沈导游，也可以叫我梦导，我更喜欢你们加我梦导，好了，先简答给大家介绍一下，在繁华的沈阳古城中心，有一座巍峨庄严的清代宫殿建筑群。就是我们今天的目的地——沈阳故宫。

依建筑时间和布局，沈阳故宫的建筑可分为三部分，它们分别是东路、中路、西路。今天，我们就按这个顺序。首先参观东路建筑。

沈阳故宫以其独特的建筑艺术和特殊的历史而闻名中外，在这片绚丽多彩，雄伟多姿的建筑群中，最古老，最具特色的就是我们面前的大政殿。

大政殿草创于1620xx年，是处理国家政务和举行庆典活动的主要场所之一。作为最早使用和最为重要的宫殿之一。许多重大历史事件都以大政殿为舞台上演。

大清门是沈阳故宫的正门，为皇帝临朝前，文武百官候朝的地方。它便是演义小说中俗称的“午朝门”。大清门的屋顶满铺黄琉璃瓦并衬以绿色剪边，既保留了以黄为尊的传统观念，又体现了满族对故乡山林的深厚眷念。从而形成了区别北京故宫的一个特点——宫殿顶覆以黄琉璃瓦镶以绿色剪边。

穿过大清门，北望便是崇政殿。崇政殿俗称“金銮殿”，是清太宗皇太极举行日常朝会的地方。

各位朋友，古代宫殿建筑布局讲究“前朝后寝”。

欢迎你来到北京故宫！这里又称紫禁城，是明朝两代的皇宫，为我国现在最大最富贵的古建筑群，面积达15500平方米，房屋9000多间。故宫四周围有10米高的城墙，墙外四角各有一座华丽奇特的角楼。

从午门进入紫禁城，然后沿着中轴线依次参观内金水桥，太和门，太和殿，中和殿，乾明宫，交泰殿，坤宁宫，御花园。参观完御花园，可以通过御花园左侧的门进入东六宫依次参观储秀宫，翎坤宫，永寿宫，咸福宫，长寿宫，太极殿，然后出内右门回到乾明广场，东行进入内左门，可依次参观延禧宫，永和宫，景阳宫，乘乾宫。参观完东六宫可沿东长庆门，然后再进入皇极门，可以参观皇极殿，宁寿宫，扮戏楼，畅音阁，养性殿，乾隆花园，贞妃井，最后出贞顺门西行出神武门就可以离开故宫了。

今天我能给你们当导游我感到非常荣幸，我跟着大家一起游览了美丽的北京故宫，高兴的度过了一天。希望你们再来北京故宫的时候再请我当导游，我会更好地讲解美丽的故宫的。

Hello, tourists. Ill show you around the Forbidden City.

First of all, let me introduce the general situation of the Forbidden City.The Forbidden City used to be called the Forbidden City. It was the imperialpalace of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Forbidden City covers an area of morethan 720000 square meters and has a history of 600 years. 24 emperors of Mingand Qing Dynasties lived here. There are more than 8700 palaces in the ForbiddenCity, which is the largest and best preserved palace complex in China and theworld. These palaces are arranged along the central axis and spread out on bothsides. They are symmetrical in left and right. The pattern is solemn and grand.In a word, when you enter the palace of Ming and Qing Dynasties today, you willenter the treasure house of Chinese civilization.

Meridian Gate is the main gate of the palace, because it is located in thesouth of the Forbidden City, so it is called Meridian Gate. Donghuamen is theeast gate of the Imperial Palace in Ming Dynasty, which corresponds to xihuamenfrom east to west. On the high wall of the Forbidden City, there are fourexquisite turrets. They are like four pearls, inlaid in the high wall, they arenot only our country, but also the worlds architectural products.

In the wide taihemen square, there is a royal road paved with blue andwhite stones in the middle, which only the emperor could walk. From the north ofTaihe square, on the tall and beautiful white jade platform, there is amagnificent building called Taihe hall, which is also called Jinluan hall. Thebase of this white marble platform is as high as 8 meters, higher than thecurrent two-story building. Among all the palaces in the Forbidden City, Jinluanhall is the most respected. The highest level ceremonies and ceremonies wereheld here.

When we stroll among these palaces, we can not only touch its bricks andtiles, but also appreciate precious cultural relics such as bronze, jade,calligraphy and painting, jewelry, etc. You will not love enough, nor seeenough

沈阳故宫占地6万多平方米，有楼台殿阁各式建筑70余座，由20多个院落组成，总计房屋300多间。故宫按自然布局分为中路、东路和西路三部分。

中路：是太宗皇太极时期得大内宫阙。南端是大清门，也是故宫得正门。向北依次是崇政殿、凤凰褛、清宁宫，它们都排列在一条中轴线上，两侧还有一些对称式得附属建筑。

大清门是日常朝会时文武大臣侯朝得地方，也是清太宗接受群臣谢恩之处。明朝著名将领洪承畴降清后，就从此门进入，受到皇太极得接见。大清门东侧这处建筑叫祖庙，祖庙是爱新觉罗家族祭祀祖先得地方，因是天子得祖庙也称太庙。

崇政殿前，东西各有五间厢楼，东为飞龙阁，西为翔凤阁。殿后是一个院落，院正北有一座高约4米得高台，台上是皇太极极其后妃得寝区。沿台阶走上去便是一座金碧辉煌得高楼凤凰楼。它得原名叫翔凤楼，直到1743年才有凤凰楼之称。凤凰楼是清宁宫得门户，也是皇帝策划军政大事和宴筵之所。它与崇政殿同期建成，康熙二十年重修。楼为三层，是三滴水式建筑。每层深广各三间，周围有回廊，下层得门洞是联络台上台下得道。风凰楼既是后宫得大门，又是整个宫殿建筑得制高点。在楼上观看日出，极为美妙。所以凤楼晓日、凤楼观塔是沈城著名得景观。凤凰楼正门上额得紫气东来金字横匾是乾隆皇帝得御笔。

清宁宫两侧是东西配宫，东配宫有关雎宫、衍庆宫；西配宫有麟趾宫和永福宫。东西配宫均为皇太极和妃子们居住之所。清宁宫西北角有一根由地面垒起，低于屋背得烟囱，人们从正面是看不见得。从清宁宫这一系列建筑中，我们可以发现沈阳故宫得两大建筑特点：一是保存了浓厚得满族特色即口袋房、万字炕、烟囱竖在地面上。二是宫高殿低，清宁宫及其四所配宫均高于皇帝议政得崇政殿和东路得大政殿。这是因为清朝夺取政权前，满族是一个牧猎民族，受生活习惯得影响，把居住得地方建在高处，以防野兽和洪水得侵袭。这与北京故宫恰好相反。

清宁宫高台之后是后苑，也叫御花园，内有碾磨房、二十八间仓、后宰门等建筑，是皇帝膳食得供给区。并有地下窨道与清宁宫相通。

在崇政殿、清宁宫高台两侧有东所、西所。东所由南往北依次是颐和殿、介祉宫、敬典阁等。东所是东巡时皇帝后妃给太后请安之处，也皇太后得寝宫和存放实录、玉牒之处；西所由南往北依次是迪光殿、保极殿、继恩斋和崇谟阁等。西所是东巡时皇帝、后妃及子女居住得地方和存放《圣训》、《满文老档》得地方。崇谟阁得建筑形式是别具一格得，它为卷棚式建筑，是在清乾隆年间增建得。

东路是以大政殿为主体，两侧辅以方亭十座，称十王亭。大政殿建于努尔哈赤时期，是故宫最早期八角重檐大木架亭子式建筑。大政殿下是高约1.5米得须弥座式台基，周围绕以雕刻精细得荷叶净瓶青石雕。殿身八面均有斧头眼式隔扇门，内外排柱40根，正门前有双龙蟠柱。殿顶是十六道五彩琉璃脊，正中是宝瓶火焰珠。殿内有精致得斗拱、藻井天花，梁架上用和玺彩绘，上有黄琉璃瓦绿剪边得顶盖。整个建筑显示出极强得美感和庄严秀丽得装饰艺术情趣。大政殿是皇帝举行大型庆典得地方，1643年清世祖福临在此即位。

大政殿前，正中是宽阔得甬道，两侧以八字形排列着十座方亭，这就是十王亭。从北至南，东边是左翼王亭、正黄旗亭、正红旗亭、镶蓝旗亭、正白旗亭；西边是右翼王亭、镶黄旗亭、镶红旗亭、正蓝旗亭、镶白旗亭。这是当年八旗首领固山额真和左右统辖八旗得亲王贝勒办公得地方。八旗制度在清王朝得军事政治及社会制度，民事管理等等很多方面都占有极为重要得地位，发挥着巨大得作用。大政殿与十王亭构成了一组亭子式院落建筑，它是清入关前八旗制度在宫殿建筑上得反映。设计者从局部建筑直至整体布局，处处突出八字。这种把军政制度巧妙地融合在建筑艺术中得做法，真可算是构思独特、别具匠心。

女士们、先生们:

我叫王，大家叫我小王就行了。

今天有幸陪同大家一道参观，我感到很高兴。

这里就是闻名世界的故宫博物馆，简称为故宫，就是昔日的皇家宫殿。

北京故宫位于北京市中心，是明清两代的皇宫，又称为“紫禁城”(历代宫殿都象“象天立宫”，以表示君权“受命于天”)。

由于君为天子，天子的宫殿如同天帝居住的“紫宫”禁地，故名“紫禁城”。

故宫始建于明永乐四年(1420xx年)，永乐十八年(1420xx年)建成。

历经有清两个朝代24个皇帝。

故宫规模宏大，西宽750米，南北长960米，占地72万平方米，建筑面积15万多平方米，有房屋9999间，是世界上最大最完整的古代宫殿建筑群。

为了突出帝王至高无上的权威，故宫有一条贯穿宫城南北的中轴线，在这条中轴线上，按照“前朝后寝”的古制，布置着帝王发施令，象征政权中心的三大殿(太和殿、中和殿、保和殿)和帝后居住的后三宫(乾清宫、交仄殿、坤宁宫)。

在其内廷部分(乾清门以北)，左右各形成一条以太上皇居住的宫殿—宁春宫，和以太妃居住的宫殿—慈寿宫为中心的次要轴线。

出于防御的需要，这些宫殿建筑的处围筑有高达10米的宫墙，四周有角楼，外有护城河。

故宫御花园，原名宫后苑，今俗称御花园，占地一万二千平方米。

以钦安殿为中心，园林建筑采用主次相辅，左右对称的格局，布局紧凑，古典富丽。

殿东北的堆秀山，为太湖石叠砌而成，上筑御景亭，每年重阳节帝后在北登高。

1987年故宫被联合国教科文组织，评定为“世界文化遗产”，是建筑艺术的经典之作。

朋友们，因为时间仓促，这次对故宫的介绍就到此结束。

下次有机会再带大家详细的参观。

谢谢合作!

大家好，欢迎大家来到北京。北京有许多名胜古迹，今天我带领大家参观的是著名的故宫。我是大家的导游，我姓胡，大家可以叫我胡导，但大家请放心，我决不会给大家“胡导”的。这位是我们的司机师傅，也姓胡。所以，本次参观就由我们“二胡”组合来为大家服务。

我们现在正在去故宫的路上，借着这点时间，我先给大家介绍一下故宫。故宫是我国现存最大最完整的皇宫，在世界上堪称最为壮丽的古代建筑群，已有近620xx年的历史。故宫是我国明、清两代24个皇帝的皇宫。故宫的建筑布局分为外朝和内廷。外朝是皇帝举行大典和召见大臣的主要场所，内廷是皇帝处理日常政务和后妃及幼年皇子居住游玩的地方。故宫共有宫殿9000多间，雕梁画柱，金碧辉煌，非常华丽威严。

好，现在我们已经到达停车场，请大家跟随我进入故宫。在进门之前，我要提醒大家：面对我们祖先留下的这些珍贵文物时，要格外珍惜，不要损坏。

最后，祝大家本次参观玩的开心。

各位游客，大家好。我是东厦旅行社的导游，名字叫余旭芸，大家叫我余导游就行了。今天，我们要去列入世界遗产的一座宫殿--北京故宫。

北京故宫始建于1420xx年，建成于1420xx年，是明清两朝的皇宫，又名紫禁城。故宫占地面积72万平方米，建筑面积15万平方米，屋子有9999间半。故宫四周饶10米高的城墙，外有50多米宽的护河城。现在，我们已经来到了北京故宫门前。各位游客们，你们看，这座故宫的四个城角上都有一座九梁十八柱七十二条脊的角楼。现在我们已经进入了外朝皇帝处理政事的地方。它们主要有三大殿:太和殿。中和殿。保和殿。现在，我们已经来到了太和殿，它是三大殿中最为高大的，它金碧辉煌，非常好看。看，这个台基四周矗立成排的雕栏，称为望柱，柱子上雕刻着云龙云凤的图画。非常显目且好看。我们出出进进都有四个门:南有午门，北有神武门，东有东华门，西有西华门。其中午门为正门。

大家好，今天由我来为大家当一次导游，向你们介绍北京故宫。希望大家做一个文明的参观者，也祝大家参观愉快!

北京故宫，位于北京市中心，是明清两朝皇帝的宫殿。从明朝永乐五年，公元142019年起，明成祖朱棣集全国匠师，征用二、三十万民工、军工，经过2019年的时间，建成了这组东方最大的宫殿群。故宫规模巨大，总面积72万平方米，共有大小房屋9999间，先后有27位皇帝住在这里。

游客们，故宫南边的第一道门就是闻名遐迩的天安门。朱红的墙面，同样鲜红的琉璃瓦双层屋顶，还有墙下的五扇拱形门以及墙上毛主席那英姿勃发的头像，构成了天安门的大概外貌。这里不仅是故宫的南大门，还是新中国成立过了天安门，我们便可以远远望见一条大河。幽清的河，弯弯曲，一眼望不到头，好似一条极长的青丝带。这条河叫金水河，是人工开凿的，据说是为了防御进攻的敌人，类似于一座城的护城河。金水河上有五座用大理石砌成的桥，叫五龙桥。踏着桥面的条砖，扶着桥边的栏杆，似乎能感觉到那时的时代气息。

过了金水河、五龙桥，再通过太和门，然后走上一小会路，我们就来到了皇帝讨论国家大事，召见群臣的太和殿。太和殿有两层顶，都用黄色的琉璃瓦铺好，在阳光的照耀下熠熠生辉。屋檐下，有十几根红柱支撑，再往下就上一个高大洁白的汉白玉台基。太和殿进深37.2米，宽63.9米，高26.9米，汉白玉台基高8.1米。在殿前开阔的台基上，依次整齐地陈列着日晷、嘉量、铜龟、铜鹤等。大殿正上方，有一块金边蓝匾，上书“太和殿”三个金光闪闪、苍劲有力的大字。殿内排有18根金柱，每一根金柱上都雕有千姿百态、栩栩如生、活灵活现的金龙，那架势，似乎要一跃而起，飞向苍穹。还有那闪着光彩夺目的龙椅，真是富丽堂皇。太和殿后面，还有皇帝上朝前休息的中和殿与举行最高级别科举考试的保和殿。再往后过了乾清门，我们就来到了内廷，就是宫人们的生活区。主要有皇帝住的乾清宫，皇后住的坤宁宫，太上皇住的宁寿宫、皇太后住的慈宁宫以及妃嫔们住的东六宫与西六宫等等。

我们再往后走，就到了故宫最北的地方，叫御花园，园中有钦安殿。这里有苍松翠柏，名花异卉，怪石伏立、泉水喷珠，是故宫内最亲切自然之处。

出了最北的地安门，也就结束了这故宫的参观。我祝大家参观愉快!谢谢大家!
