The world is at your feet, the ancient world is green

The royal solemnity of Jingshan is even more fateful in winter. The unparalleled grandeur, the ultimate Chinese aesthetics, and the unique grandeur of the central axis are transformed into the shock of looking up at the Wanchun Pavilion. In the 12th year of the Shunzhi reign of the Qing Dynasty, Wansui Mountain was renamed "Jingshan." "Jing" means tall and comes from the Book of Songs, "Wang Chu and Tang, Jingshan and Beijing." Jingshan is actually less than 100 meters, but it is the top of the Forbidden City, the highest point of the central axis, and has witnessed the rule of 24 emperors for more than 600 years, quietly overlooking what was once the most majestic imperial city in the world. As Shi Tiesheng said, "In the pervasive silent light, it is easier for a person to see time and see his own shadow."
