History of Tiananmen

Trace the history of Tiananmen Square, can not fail to mention the history and evolution of the ancient capital of  Beijing. Tiananmen Square and Beijing’s ancient city wall, like everywhere, without exception, in the long course of history bears the deep imprint.

Beijing, Tang You state, Liao of Yenching, Kim took the capital, most of the Yuan Dynasty replaced the Ming and Qing Beijing, said. In China thousands of years of civilization, there have been Yan, the former Yan, Da-yan, Liao, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasty with Beijing as the capital of eight. The various dynasties in Beijing, massive construction projects in the construction of a distinctive old buildings. The first building have an indirect effect on the Tiananmen Square is the Yuan Dynasty Dadu.

Yuan in the first year of unification, namely, Khan, Kublai Khan in Kaiping Prefecture (now the eastern part of Inner Mongolia are blue flag). Kublai Khan in 1264 AD to Yanjing, as both Dahir, Yuan nine-year change in both the most. From the construction of Dadu began in 1267, to be fully completed in 1285 and lasted 18 years. Dadu abandoned the capital of the former site of the Jin Dynasty (now Beijing east of the southwest area of the pond), a family moved to Beijing. This is a very neat city, slightly rectangular big capital, Chang’an Street in this location south wall, north wall in this Deshengmen and Andingmen north near the North Third Ring Road. Now, where there was also intermittent mound, known as Tuchengzi is the first North Dadu walls. Large capital from the inside to the outside were Miyagi, Imperial City, and cities. Ayutthaya perimeter 60 li, 11 gates. South 3: the middle of the main gate of Korea (now Zhengyang), the east door of civilization, the West Gate for Shun Cheng; east from south to north, is the amalgamation door, Chongren door, the light-Hee Mun; west from south to north, followed by is flat then the door, and the meaning doors, wipe out the door; the north is only two gates, Ahn Jung-east gate, west Deshengmen. Imperial City of South Gate is called soul star door, the door in the area this afternoon. Ling Li at the main entrance door and the star between a “T”-shaped Palace Square, the Palace Square, Ming and Qing dynasties was a repetition of the old site, and built in the middle

Tiananmen Square. Dadu walls Siyu have turret, with piers outside the city, the city palace in the former, City Square, after 50 residents are spread all over. At that time, there is one called the Italian traveler Marco Polo came to China, see the “sweat of the city” Dadu was magnificent palaces and beautiful flower garden, the much praised: “The City is so beautiful, so cleverly arranged, and we can not belonging to describe her. “he later wrote,” Travels of Marco Polo “because of the large capital account, leaving this city to spread, becoming a world. Yuan dynasty, although not the construction of the Tiananmen Square, but it is building a new site to choose another pattern as well as the Yuan Palace, Palace Square, the location, while filling the Ming Dynasty, Tiananmen Square, was built with a feasibility.

AD 1368 (the first year of Hongwu), the rule of the Yuan Dynasty was overthrown, the emperor first Ming emperor in Nanjing and established the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, Xu Da Ming generals commanded the army captured Dadu, renamed Peiping. At this point, the Ming rulers had devastating destruction of Dadu, in particular, is the essence of Dadu – Yuan Palace to make line removed in order to eliminate the former dynasty, “Wang Qi”, resulting in a goldsmith shop Zhu households in that year, Dan Ying algae painted, extremely brilliant meta-Miyagi gone. In 1398, Zhu Yuan Jia Beng, the Sun Jianwen emperor to the throne. Then, in the Ming Dynasty took place within the group compete for the throne of a war. The emperor’s fourth son, Zhu Di Yan Wang revolted Peking, won the throne, boarded the emperor’s throne, from the Yongle Emperor Yan Wang has become, and in the first year of Yongle (AD 1403) the first month will be renamed Peiping, Beijing, temporarily referred to as “Bank” (when the row outside the emperor).

Yongle Emperor Zhu Di in place after the first major event was the decision to move the capital from Nanjing his “Xing-place” Beijing. His reason for relocation of the capital Beijing, mainly due to Beijing’s “left-ring sea, the right pro-Taihang, South lapel Kawasumi, North pillow Guyan,” “gateway no less than a hundred”, “will pass water transport facilities, Tianjin Tong sea,” the excellent geographical location. In addition, because in order to control the north and northeast regions, in order to safeguard the country’s stability. Thus, in Yongle four years (1406), Zhu Di will be contingent minister to visit China around the governor to adopt wood, Shaozao brick, and levy issued to all localities artisans, noncommissioned officers, workers began preparations to create projects in Beijing. Yongle fifteen years (1417), large-scale construction projects in Beijing started to Yongle eighteen years (1420 years) party divisions completed, Yongle nineteen (1421), Zhu Di Ban Zhao officially moved the capital to Beijing.

Ming, Beijing is a city of Dadu, based on the advantages of drawing ancient capital planning, but also made reference to the Nanjing regulate construction. “Where the Temple Club, Jiaosi, altar field, palace, (gate) Que, regulation noted, such as Nanjing.” In fact, Beijing, the new palace more splendid than that of Nanjing. It is wrapped inside the outer city south side of the inner city wrapped in Imperial, Imperial also wrapped in the Forbidden City, the whole city to form a “convex” shape. The inner city to take the basic death Dadu site, the north wall of the early Ming Wuli to the southward has Deshengmen, Andingmen line, then move over to the South wall this Zhengyang line. There are nine inner city, due south of Zhengyang (ie, the main entrance of the Yuan-li); Imperial City, including Central, a total of six: the east, Dongan west of Xi’an, north of the north-an, Square, south of Da-ming the door , Edward Chang left the door the door the left and right for the Chang’an right door. Miyagi also known as the Forbidden City, is the heart of Beijing, a total of 4: South as the Meridian Gate, north of Xuanwumen, east Donghuamen West Gate in West China. As the southward expansion of the South Wall, Imperial City and Forbidden City are also in turn southward, the South moved to the Imperial City are seeing today is the location of the north side of Chang’an Avenue. Imperial City in the door, according to the name of the capital was renamed the Edward Meenan door (today Yasukado), Edward gate modeled on the layout of the construction of the Nanjing City side door. Palace of the Forbidden City South moved to the present location of the main entrance door from the Yuan Dynasty was renamed Spirit Star Meridian Gate.

The Forbidden City in the construction of the city the use of the center of Okimichi afternoon in front of the left and right side, according to the “left ancestral Right Society” Regulation of the construction of Imperial Ancestral Temple and the boat scene two strictly symmetrical buildings. In addition, Edward doors (in the Qing Dynasty renamed the Tiananmen Square) before opening a “T” shape of the palace square, the square east, west and south sides of the wall built to square close up and in the east, west and south wings protrude side, each opened a door that is left Chang’an, Chang’an right door and the south gate of the Ming dynasty (the Qing Dynasty was renamed the Great Qing Gate).

Edward door is important buildings in the Imperial City. Edward door Yongle eighteen years (1420 years) when they were built just a Huangwa cornices of the three floors of the five wood-style arch, arch the middle was placed, “Edward’s Gate” plaque. Edward Gate blending of “Edward departure” and “orders from the day” meaning, Yu showing the feudal emperor is “ordered in the day”, and for the days of the exercise of powers, should eternally to respect.

Tomorrow Soon the first year (1457), Edward was struck by lightning fire destroyed the door was not able to immediately resume until the fully integrated first year (1465), was presided over by the minister of works baigui reconstruction. The reconstruction, laying the Tiananmen Square in shape today. Since then, although the construction of the Ming Dynasty 180 years, but they were not as great volatility. Chongzhen seventeen years (1644), Li Zi Cheng led the peasant rebel army captured the capital, was destroyed by the flames of war Edward door again. U / ares rule eight years (1651), the Qing ancestor Fulin ordered large-scale reconstruction and renamed Edward the door of the “Tiananmen.” Twenty-seven years later Emperor Kangxi (1688), two large-scale renovation in 1952, renovated in 1970, has largely maintained Junji shape when converted. Rebuilt in 1970 after the Tiananmen Square Tiananmen Square than the original high by 83 cm, height 34.7 meters Messenger (formerly a high of 33.87 meters).

Tiananmen Square, this old building from the 500-year history trajectories we can see a long history of  china. Tiananmen Square is a symbol of Chinese civilization, is witnessing the change of the feudal dynasties rise and fall of witness to the history.

Now, given the chance, you can board at any time this tower, to overlooking the world’s largest square – Tiananmen Square.

Hanging pictures of Chairman Mao in Tiananmen Square on National Day of each year before the usual cycles. Portrait version has been changed four times. Founding ceremony for the 1949 first edition of hanging portraits of Chairman Mao wearing octagonal cap; from 1950 to 1952 with short hair hanging in front of Chairman Mao’s portrait of a green jacket does the second edition; from 1953 to 1968 is the hair hanging President profile shot of the third edition. 1969 to date is the fourth edition of Mao hanging like a positive.

Every time the workers from moving to the suspension are extra cautious, drawn from the company come from 30 able-bodied workers who came to Tiananmen Square, hospital portrait studio, first with a rope through the pulley on the Ceiling lifted a ton of multiple frame, a dozen Personal hold up box at the end, trucks poured into shed, fitted with rear under the guidance of the human command and transported to the city downstairs, and then lifted by crane, replaced the old portrait hanging for a year. According to the company’s Ligui You Grandfather’s description: “Originally, the President participated in handling people like to go through strict political review, although abolished in 1985 after the meet the political, but each time when moving the unit must first give the workers a meeting, speaking hair removal such as the importance of the President. “Over the years, the company successfully fulfilled the task of flying like Chairman Mao.

Portrait of Chairman Mao in 1994, before the plate is 21 5 made of plywood and aluminum is not only easy to deform Qiao Jiao, and affect the image overall effect. The 45th anniversary of National Day in 1994, when the large-scale painting, decoration Tiananmen Gate at the same time, Chairman Mao portrait on Tiananmen Gate of the Central Board have also been replaced. Portrait of replacement board for a new technology developed block plane made of glass fiber reinforced plastic to make up for previous deficiencies, enhanced portrait effect of making it even more dazzling pictures of Chairman Mao.

The fifties, every “51″, “11″ festival, the middle of hanging pictures of Chairman Mao tower, the square east of the erection of Marx, Engels, portraits, the west side of the erection of Lenin, Stalin portraits. “11″ National Day and the “51″ Labor Day is different from the north side of the addition of Sun Yat-sen memorial portrait of Chairman Mao portrait with the middle tower as opposed to hanging around like a time for holiday week.

The central authorities to make such a decision, because most of the world during the festival are mostly flying their national hero’s portrait. Sun Yat-sen is the pioneer of China’s modern revolution, led by Chairman Mao Zedong in China, modern Chinese GCD long period of revolutionary struggle, led the Chinese people overthrew the three big mountains, creating the PRC. Therefore, we care about when Chairman Mao’s portrait hanging in the “51″, “11″ and other major holidays during the period, placed the portrait of Sun Yat-sen. No longer put up Marx and Engels, columns, Sri Lanka’s portrait, did not mean China is any change in the attitude of Marxism, this is the foundation of our country’s four cardinal principles, Chairman Mao Zedong’s revolutionary activities and Mao Zedong Thought in itself a manifestation of Marxism with the reality of the Chinese revolution.

There are two words the same symmetry with each other a huge banner. Slogan length of 30 meters wide and 2.2 meters, wooden structures, the west side reads “Long Live The People’s Republic of China”, the east is “Long live the great unity of the peoples of the world”, horizontal layout in the tower marked the top of the front, not only because of its decorative, more is important to make this old building has the characteristics of the times.

Tiananmen Gate 2 horizontal standard, is the founding ceremony in 1949, by the artist Ono and Senmao design. They Zhangjiakou in 1945, joined the Eighth Route Army in China and later assigned to the North China Military Propaganda “against the enemy drama troupe.” Responsible for the decorations at Tiananmen Square when the founding ceremony in the main work. Banner using traditional Chinese couplets symmetric form, bottom is red, word, frame are white, and the words with the box protruding wall. This is rich in design, so that the entire site slogan not only generous, but also has three-dimensional beauty. That eye-catching but dignified and well-proportioned beauty Arial characters from the hands of anti-Japanese war at the Chung Ling, Chung Ling served as the club’s director of Yenan, this post almost made him solely on the large banner on the wall brush person. His calligraphy is good, especially adept at character art, particularly suitable for large brush to write propaganda slogans. Slogans on the walls Yan’an legend almost all written by him. That year, Chairman Mao in Yan’an to live walking, he saw walls have a slogan of “workers” in the middle of the industrial character pricked Guailiaogewan to “person” with a flick of the word with a three-point, so it as a “stereotyped Party writing,” a typical example included in the article: “The comrades are students of the ancient literati is no doubt that the … ….”

Content of the initial signs Tiananmen Traditional Chinese characters, eye-catching dignified, crisp, taut appearance. Traditional Chinese Simplified Chinese in 1964 changed to “51″ on the eve of. In China began in 1956 simplified Chinese characters, the promotion of Putonghua, the development and implementation of the Chinese Phonetic Alphabet. International Labor Day in 1964, Tiananmen Square both sides of the banner on top of the traditional characters, “China” and “State”, “10000″, “Year”, “group” All changed to simplified Chinese characters. Tiananmen Square in 1970, rebuilt from the original wood into a large metal signs, banners removed border patterns, and changed to beige.

Now, people see the two towers when the founding ceremony in cross-standard content and the content is slightly different. Founding ceremony, the content of “Long Live The People’s Republic of China”, “Long live the Central People’s Government,” the press by the then Director of Comrade Hu Qiaomu prepared. 1950 National Day, but also by Comrade Hu Qiaomu recommendation to the eastern side of Tiananmen Square, “Long live the Central People’s Government” changed to “Long live the great unity of people around the world.” The west side of the content intact. Slogan for the east side of the changes, like Comrade Hu Qiaomu explains: Tiananmen Square on the two banners, one to write “China”, a write “world”, both of national significance, but also expressed the spirit of internationalism is at all times applicable. This insightful annotations, showing that the hearts of the Chinese nation, this profound meaning of the Oriental dragon letter contains the nations of the world with a strong conviction stand.

At major festivals and national celebrations, the Tiananmen Gate on the hanging red lanterns, has become a norm. 8 Raise the Red Lantern was placed on the Tiananmen Gate, on the capital for the festival added a festive and peaceful warm atmosphere.

In September 1994 before the festive and large-scale celebrations, when the founding ceremony in Tiananmen Square has been hanging enabled large lanterns.

Each lantern high 2.23 meters, 8.05 meters circumference and weighing about 80 kg. For many years, the existence of bulky lights, hanging effortlessly, storage problems and other issues, and the appearance of red gauze at intervals of 2023 to be replaced due to fading time.

In September 1994, to celebrate the 45th anniversary of the establishment of The People’s Republic of China, Tiananmen Gate, a new modification, while the old castle on the four pairs of giant lanterns also will honor retired, replaced by a new type of steel folding lanterns. This new lantern is the first houses built by the Beijing Municipal Engineering Corporation subsidiary equipment installation company was developed on the eve of the 45th anniversary of the founding of success. The new lantern is a folding retractable lights, than in the past compared to the old lantern, with easy transport, hanging, storage three main features. The appearance of the size of lantern unchanged, but the contraction was only one-tenth of the original lanterns. The lantern uses a new type spring steel material, the weight slightly larger than the old lantern, but it solved the old-fashioned lanterns sway with the wind may give rise to danger.

Retired down the old lantern in the beginning is how to create and hung on the Tiananmen Gate on it? In 1949 on the eve of National Day celebration, Comrade Zhou Enlai, the task of the design and layout of the Tiananmen Gate to the North China Military Region Political Department’s “Anti-Japanese Drama Club” ( Backstage Beijing Military Region, the former comrade in arms). At that time, the regiment has two Japanese art school graduates. Called Ono, and the other is called Senmao. In 1945, they are with a group of young people against Japanese imperialism, escaped from Peking, in the Zhangjiakou joined the Eighth Route Army and was assigned to the “Anti-Japanese Drama Club” as a stage art work. The liberated areas and long-nurtured in arts and creative practice of stage art, so that they became the North China Military Region in the excellent artists. Therefore, the regiment put the design and decoration of Tiananmen They handed. Ono and Senmao absorb everyone’s reasonable opinion, only a week to draw sketches of the 20 Members of the draft has been repeatedly refined and screening, finally forwarded to a better tomorrow for the final approval of Premier Zhou.

Comrade Zhou Enlai was very concerned about the matter, carefully inspected each sketch, when you see 10 pillars between the eight suns painted on the lantern design, his face exposed pleased smile, immediately instructed the Political Department of the North China Military Propaganda Minister Zhang Zhi-xiang Be sure to hang before the National Day celebration in Tiananmen Square.

Chang Chi-harmony art troupe choreography team of the Soviet Union where the two had traveled the entire city of Beijing, but also did not see such a huge lanterns. Only 10 days away from the celebration, everyone was very anxious mind, when I saw thought for a long while Ono said: “Beijing does not contain such a large lantern, but not do a small lantern, light artists to find a bar, large lanterns and the small lantern is not an approach. “sentence reminding people of the Soviet Union who went straight to the Forbidden City, Hard work pays off, in the vast Qing file, really recorded with an old artist living fixing lights. They are based on the supplied address, find a front door of the man surnamed Yin of the masters, asking him to “coming out.” Veteran actor looked at the design, went to the castle, after seeing the scene, said: “Such a large palace lantern, let alone my whole life to do, see nor have seen, I do, you can, but I have one condition, which a few lanterns, I have to find my disciples come together, and can only be done at the Tiananmen Gate, otherwise made up of the also could not lift 呀! “old with two disciples and two Japanese artists, along with the tower on the a whole to work hard for three days and three nights, and finally finished two days ahead of the production of red lanterns. More than a dozen soldiers struggled considerably to put a few huge “sun” lanterns hanging to the tower 10 between the pillars. Red lantern illuminates everyone’s smiling faces, reflecting the very magnificent Tiananmen Square.

Now, with the Republic throughout its 45 glorious spring and the old lantern retired and were the Beijing Municipal People’s Government of the Tiananmen Square District Management Committee, the Chinese Revolution Museum, and other relevant units in the preservation and collection.

Tiananmen Gate architectural style and decoration is the essence of ancient Chinese architectural art. Designer Kuai Xiang was born in the early Ming Dynasty Hongwu years, Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, the government Wuxian Xiangshan people. His father was a prestigious craftsmen. Kuai Xiang deeply his father’s influence, more than 30-year-old that “big school building to the main,” was a very accomplished carpenter had. “Kenso Record” records, Kuai Xiang “a carpenter from scribe and Industry experts in technology.”

Tiananmen Square in central Beijing. It is the world’s largest square, covering an area of 50 million square meters.

New China’s architectural history should be written from here, because it was born even earlier than that of the Republic for several hours. September 30, 1949, the eve of founding ceremony, Mao Zedong led all the CPPCC National Committee members went to Tiananmen Square, the people laid the first stone monument to the heroes.

In accordance with China’s traditional thinking, monuments and buildings, should be blocks north to south, but Zhou Enlai had suggested to the architects, whether the monument for the Tiananmen Square, facing Chang’an Avenue, because the vast majority of people from the north into the Square . Architects accepted his proposal, so clear to see two indomitable spirit of the historical characters – the people.
