Ladies and gentlemen: Good morning. I am your tour guide, and we will exhibit ancient calligraphy and stone carving art in China Beilin Museum. Are you ready? All right, let's go.
The museum is located in the former site of Confucius Temple in Sanxue Street, Xi City. 1950, the Confucius Temple extends to the museum to welcome us today. The museum covers an area of about 30,000 square meters. Originally established in 1087. Now more than 3,000 stone tablets from the Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty have been preserved. Many fragments look like a dense forest, hence the name "Forest of Steles".
Entering the temple, now we have walked half a circle on the bridge pond, which is a Confucius temple with special structure. In ancient times, only students who passed the national examination were allowed to pass here. We pass through the stone gate in the middle, which is limited to high grades. We will pass, haha!
The national treasure can be seen in the net courtyard, and there is a stone in the west, which is a short period of a few relics in summer; Dongting, starring Jing Yunling 7 1 1ad. The clock has three aspects: first, look at it, it has exquisite carvings and phoenix and dragon; Second, unique inscriptions; The third is a beautiful voice from CCTV, which recorded New Year's Eve to welcome the arrival of the New Year.
The whole area consists of three parts: the exhibition of slate sculpture hall of Confucius Temple. We have visited the Confucius Temple now. Next, we will visit seven exhibition halls in the forest of steles.
The first showroom in front is the stele pavilion, which is the largest and earliest one in the museum. It was written in 745 AD and annotated by Li Longji's Xiao Jing, which is a compilation of Confucian classics. This film consists of four stones and a base, so it is actually called Shi Xiao.
This way, please open the Shijing in the first showroom, which is the most complete and heaviest book in the world. In the past, copying was a popular way for students to learn theory. In order to prevent copying mistakes, students who used the 12 classic slate carved by many sculptors in Emperor Taizong got the rubbings. Together with another classic, Mencius, it was carved in the Qing Dynasty, which we call "13 classic".
