There is a kind of “house-style” gates in the Forbidden City, such as Taihe Gate, Qianqing Gate, Ningshou Gate, Yangxing Gate, etc. They are all independent buildings. It is called the “door”. People often mistakenly believe that it is the Hall of Supreme Harmony because it is built like a hall.

The Forbidden city has five gates also is based on  three dynasties system inspired designing  in the Forbidden City 紫禁城成 in which its construction 600年 years ago the construction design format is  the palace system of the Zhou Dynasty, representing orthodoxy, and is the highest palace architectural level in ancient China, almost inherited by the past dynasties. Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty renovated the city of Beijing and built the Forbidden City.

 A new central axis was determined, but the ancestral system was still followed. The Forbidden City of Beijing was planned according to the Forbidden City of Nanjing. The five gates in Wanli were Daming Gate, Chengtian Gate, Duan Gate, Meridian Gate, and Huangji Gate, namely Fengtian Gate. The three dynasties were Huangji Hall (Fengtian Hall), Zhongji Hall (Huagai Hall), and Jianji Hall (Jingshen Hall). . When the Ming Dynasty brought the Yuan Dynasty out of chaos, it simply razed the Yuan Dynasty to the ground and set up five sects and three dynasties in accordance with the orthodox thought of “Zhou Li”, indicating that the Ming Dynasty inherited the Datong….. In which the other four gates are Tiananmen, Duanmen, Meridian, Taihemen, Taihe Hall, Zhonghe Hall, and Baohe Hall.

【紫禁城的五门三朝制】 紫禁城建成  600年 悦读故宫 是周代的宫室制度，代表正统，是中国古代最高的宫殿建筑等级，几乎被历代所继承。明永乐帝改造北京城，营建紫禁城，确定了新的轴线，但仍遵循祖制，按南京紫禁城来规划北京紫禁城，于轴线上依据《周礼》所定设置五门三朝。万历时五门是大明门、承天门、端门、午门、皇极门即奉天门，三朝是皇极殿（奉天殿）、中极殿（华盖殿）、建极殿（谨身殿）。明代在对元代拨乱反正时，干脆把元大内夷为平地，按照《周礼》的正统思想设置五门三朝，表示大明王朝承袭了大统

貝迪烏 Beidouqixing, which occupies an important position in ancient astronomy, is the most prominent symbol in the sky. The movement of the stars in the sky is due to its commands. . On the corresponding ground, on the central axis (from the Meridian Gate to the Shenwu Gate) line in the glorious Forbidden City, there are also 7 palaces symbolizing the Big Dipper.

They are the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the Hall of Zhonghe, the Hall of Baohe, the Palace of Qianqing, the Hall of Jiaotai, the Palace of Kunning and the Hall of Qin’an. In the book “The Road of Forbidden City Architecture” written by Wang Zilin, an expert from the Palace Museum, it is stated that in order to more prominently identify the Big Dipper, the seven stars are represented by architectural spheres on the seven roofs of the Forbidden City.

The plane of the Meridian Gate is in the shape of a concave. There are two double-edged Cuanding Pavilions on the north and south ends of the East and West Yanwing Towers. The four spheres on the roof are connected together to form a Big Dipper. The spheres and aquariums on the roofs of the Thai Hall and Qin’an Hall combine to form a bucket. 悦读旧宫…..

 北斗七星，在古代天文中占有重要位置，它是天空中最为显著的标志，天空星宿的运转，都是因为它的号令而运行。在与之对应的地上，辉煌的紫禁城内的中轴（指从午门至神武门）线上，也建筑了7座宫殿象征北斗七星。它们是太和殿、中和殿、保和殿、乾清宫、交泰殿、坤宁宫和钦安殿。在故宫博物院专家王子林所著的《紫禁城建筑之道》一书中写道：为了更显著地点明北斗七星，以紫禁城内七座屋顶上的建筑圆球来象征七颗星。午门平面呈一凹字形，东西燕翅楼南北两端各建有重檐攒顶阙亭一座，屋顶攒尖的四个圆球连在一起，呈一北斗星的斗魁，中和殿、交泰殿和钦安殿屋顶的圆球和宝瓶组合在一起，形成斗杓。悦读故宫…..
