1. The promenade, like a ribbon, closely connects the scenic spots in Qian Shan, and naturally divides the scenic spots into east and west parts with Paiyun Hall as the center.
There are pavilions in the corridor, and there are three pavilions on the east and west wings. These pavilions not only have a scenic effect, but also have a certain distance to lean against the corridor and play a supporting role.
The paintings on the promenade are the most precious works of art in the garden.
Two. Introduction to the Summer Palace Promenade:
The Summer Palace promenade is located between the southern foot of Wanshou Mountain and the northern shore of Kunming Lake. It was built in the 15th year of Qing Qianlong (1750), and was rebuilt in 1888 after it was burnt down by the British and French allied forces in/860. The promenade starts from the Moon Inviting Gate in the east and ends at Zhang Shiting in the west. It passes through the Paiyun Gate in the middle and is symmetrically dotted with four octagonal pavilions with double eaves: Liujiating Pavilion, Jilan Pavilion, Qiushui Pavilion and Qingyao Pavilion. It symbolizes the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. It is 728 meters long, with 273 rooms and 548 columns. The promenade is famous for its exquisite architecture, twists and turns and colorful paintings. It is the longest corridor among ancient buildings and gardens in China. The promenade is also a colorful gallery. Every beam in the gallery is painted with colorful paintings, with more than *** 14000, which are colorful and magnificent. The length and colorful paintings were listed in the Guinness Book of World Records in 1990. Most of the colorful paintings are landscapes, flowers and birds, and the plots in China's four classical novels (Dream of Red Mansions, Journey to the West, Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin). Painters condensed the history and culture of China for thousands of years on this long corridor. Many of these landscape paintings are copied from the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River, and they are places painted by painters according to the intention of Qianlong.
