Close-ups of the Nine Dragon Screen you glimpsed in yesterday’s post. 🐉 Notice the missing piece on this white dragon? The story goes that during installation a craftsman accidentally broke the tile, but since that tile was unique, there was no replacement tile. As a last resort, he crafted one out of wood & painted it to look like the original glazed tile & it passed inspection! Over time, that piece has fallen away. . . Some other facts: there are 9 dragons bc 9 is an auspicious number. These dragons all have 5 claws, which is significant in that only the Emperor could use the 5-clawed dragon. . . . Other than the 1st & last slides, I’ve organized the dragons in order. Enjoy because seeing this screen cost me extra admission! 😄 . . . . #wanderlustwednesday #theforbiddencity #beijing #ninedragonscreen #wanderlust #architecture #art #travelgram #mingdynasty #qingdynasty #vscotravel #historicsite #worldheritagesite #instatravel #historynerd #seetheworld #liveincolor #postcardsfromtheworld #visitChina #exploreChina #China #girlontheroam #latergram (at Forbidden City, Beijing) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrlisYdHnVn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8a2xs4rsvvg1

Último dia na Ásia, em janeiro de 2017... fizemos stopover de 20 horas em Pequim, depois que saímos de Bangkok (que nem fizemos no primeiro dia). E como já tínhamos ida à Muralha da China, dessa vez decidimos explorar o centro. . ➡️ Primeiras dicas para Pequim: • vá com dinheiro e com um roteiro impecável. • saibam que em janeiro é muuuuito frio! • comprem internet para o celular na hora de andar por lá. • baixem o google maps offline mesmo com internet no celular. • pesquisem aplicativos de celular que funcionem na China. . ⚠️ Enquanto eu vou baixando as fotos da nuvem e pesquisando os lugares que passei (porque eu não lembro mais dos nomes), eu vou postando mais aqui 😆 no caso eu só vou deixar essas dicas para contar sobre os perrengues nos próximos posts já que eu tenho dezenas fotos de Pequim 😂 ———————————————- #caiotravels #china #beijing #pequim #theforbiddencity #asia #mulheresviajantes #viajantespm #backpacker #mochileira #viagemaoredordomundo #viagemdossonhos #trip #travelblogger #travelgram #travelholic (at Forbidden City, Beijing) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCwAtsOjxhm/?igshid=1ei3qqv4x87h4

Leaving The Forbidden City from the west gate. The Forbidden City is surrounded by a 26 ft high city wall and a 20 ft deep by 171 ft wide moat. The walls are 28 ft wide at the base, tapering to 21 ft at the top. These walls served as both defensive walls and retaining walls for the palace. • • •#BillyGoatGangsters #travel #explore #TheForbiddenCity #Beijing #China #Adventure #GetLost #TheFullersGoAsian #WorthTheJetLag #Travelbug (at China Beijing Forbidden City Xi Cheng Qu Bei Chang Jie 38号)

La Cité se dresse majestueuse. Pourvue de tuiles jaunes orangées, rouge, vertes ou pourpres qui réchauffent la place et symbolisent les univers. Les salles en bois se succèdent peintes et dorées. Et le dragon cohabite avec le héron, la tortue ou le lion. L’imaginaire s’évade sous forme d’immortalité, de justice, sagesse, puissance ou longévité. Une porte s’ouvre, et le jardin se découvre impérial, élégant et verdoyant. Tout est là, regroupé, pour s’évader, penser, réfléchir, créer. . « Chez moi, aucun tumulte du monde de poussière, les pièces vides laissent du loisir, Longtemps enfermé en cage, j’ai enfin pu revenir à ma nature. » TaoQian . #shansa citéinterdite #citeinterdite #forbiddencity #theforbiddencity #jardin #garden #évasion #escape #penser #think #thinkpositive #penséepositive #penseepositive #reflechir #réfléchir #créer #creer #create #écrire #ecrire #write #poésie #poetry #developpementpersonnel #personaldevelopment #taoqian #beijing #pékin #pekin #chine #china🇨🇳 #china (à 御花园 Imperial Garden) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1grQcWh_1y/?igshid=1o3hsyunvrqw1
