Hanyuan Hall (Ming Hall):
From yingtianmen, you can see the tallest and most magnificent palace building in the palace-Hanyuan Hall. It is equivalent to the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City of Ming and Qing Dynasties in Beijing. Hanyuan Temple symbolizes the majesty of the emperor and shocks the world.
Hanyuan Temple was originally the Ganyang Temple built in Sui Dynasty, but it was destroyed four times and built four times, and its name was changed nine times. According to the Ji Tang in Zi Zhi Tong Jian, Hanyuan Hall is about 72.24 meters high and 73.71 meters around the bottom. * * * three floors, the bottom is square, and all sides are painted with one color, representing the four seasons respectively. The twelve sides of the middle layer imitate the twelve hours of the day. The top floor is circular, surrounded by Kowloon sculpture. There is a huge wooden column with a circumference of about 15 meters in the middle, which runs through from top to bottom, so it is also called Vientiane Shrine. Its architectural technology and construction technology are shocking.
Paradise (Gongde Hall):
According to Zi Zhi Tong Jian, Paradise is located in the north of Mingtang, with five floors and a height of about 12 meters, which is higher than Mingtang, and there are giant Buddha statues in it.
Because it was too high, the paradise was built soon and was destroyed by a huge wind. Later, Wu Zetian ordered the reconstruction. "It took tens of thousands of people a day to collect wood in Jiangling for several years, and the cost was trillions."
Tian Shu:
Tian Shu is a monument to the songs and virtues of the Empress Wu Zetian. Located at the south gate of the Imperial City-Duanmen.

On it, there are four dragons holding fire beads, with a height of about 3.33 meters. The names of the civil and military officials and the chiefs who surrendered to the country are inscribed on the column. Wu Zetian wrote the list himself, saying, "All countries in the Zhou Dynasty praised Tian Shu".
Jiuzhou Ding and Twelve Gods Sculptures:
Jiuzhou Ding and Twelve Gods Sculptures are located in Miyagi and are placed around the Ming Hall. Wu Zetian ordered the Jiuzhou Ding to be built for the nine provinces that were divided into administrative divisions at that time. Among them, Yuzhou, the capital of God, is the most famous. Each tripod is also cast with local geographical maps and cultural specialties, and Jiuding uses more than 567 thousand Jin of copper. Later, Wu Zetian made a decree to cast twelve metal sculptures in twelve places, all of which were about 2.96 meters high.
Construction characteristics of Luoyang City in Sui and Tang Dynasties
(1) The location of the city is in the best feng shui environment
Luoyang City, the eastern capital of Sui and Tang Dynasties, emphasizes the principle of "like heaven, like earth", and Luoshui, Mangshan and Longmenshan form a counterclockwise Tai Chi operation map. During the reign of Luoyang in Sui and Tang Dynasties, the capital was opposite to Longmen Mountain, and it was a typical land of kings.
(II) Strengthened the defense of Miyagi and Imperial City
Luoyang City in Sui and Tang Dynasties not only maintained the layout of "front palace and rear bedroom", but also added the office of the central government to build a city called Imperial City, which was separated from Lifang District in Guo Cheng, Henan Province by the natural barrier. This undoubtedly strengthened the defensive role of Miyagi and Imperial City.
(3) Reasonable arrangement of economic and trade zones
Luoyang was located in the north and south of Luohe River in Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the Lifang was set up in a moderate position, namely, Beishi (occupying one Lifang in the north of Luohe River), Nanshi (occupying two Lifang in the south of Luohe River) and Xishi (occupying one Lifang). There are also commercial shops in some Li Fang at Luohe Wharf, which is more balanced and convenient for urban economic life.
(4) Introducing China and Luoyang into Luonanlifang, making Luoyang the first "landscape capital" and "garden city" in
Luoyang in Sui and Tang Dynasties was the first precedent for planning cities along the river in China; It is also the first to introduce water from Iraq and Luoer to Lifang District, so that the urban river network can be connected and the water can flow at home. This city, with its water flowing through the city, criss-crossing rivers and mountains, has become the first "landscape capital" in China. Lifang is flat, fertile and surrounded by water, which provides natural resources for more than 1 private gardens in Lifang District of Luonan. Combined with the social and cultural environment of Tang and Song Dynasties, it created the first "garden city" in China.
(5) The main tall buildings in the city are arranged on the axes of Miyagi, Imperial City and Dacheng, which makes the spatial order of the city clear and artistic.
On the axis of Dingding Street, it starts from dingding gate in Guo Cheng and goes north, Tianjin Bridge, the south gate of Imperial City, yingtianmen in the south of Gongcheng City, Ganyuan Gate, Ganyuan Hall (including Yuan Hall and Ming Hall), Zhenguan Hall (Paradise) and Hui Hui.
(6) Luoyang City in Sui and Tang Dynasties was a super-large feudal castle city in the Middle Ages
Luoyang City in Sui and Tang Dynasties, with an urban area of about 49.9 square kilometers (excluding Shangyang Palace), was a super-large medieval feudal castle city in the world after Chang 'an at that time. "Geography of Sui Shu" contains: "There are 18 counties in Henan Province, with 22,23 households." And "tens of thousands of wealthy businessmen from dajia migrated to Tokyo." It can solve the problems of housing, food, water, transportation and social work of the population living in such a large city, which shows that the urban construction and management at that time reached a quite high level.
