48 hours is the length of a weekend,

Bring a cup of coffee, watch a movie, go to a dinner, arrange a drink,

These lives, I want to experience them in a different city

Let the time harvest more three-dimensional 48 hours.

The Forbidden City has been 600 years old. This is a topic that has been popular for half a year. It has always stimulated my desire to move.

Although this trip to the Imperial City missed the special exhibition,

Without full branches of ginkgo and red leaves,

I didn't see snow in the Forbidden City,

However, it was cloudless and the sun shone directly on that day

This time I am traveling alone, belonging to a mood and a rhythm of my own.

The 600-year-old Forbidden City, the beauty of gold tiles and red walls

November 27, Friday, took one day's annual leave

Why did I lose two breakfast photos at Nanchang Changbei Airport?

Because, during the three days in Beijing, I also went to eat the delicious food of the Internet celebrity queue with my friends

Unfortunately, they are not as good as this bowl of rice noodles or this bowl of crock soup

Welcome everyone to Nanchang to drink soup

China Eastern Airlines, Nanchang to Beijing Daxing

This is my first time to come to the completed Daxing. It is very international and beautiful

Unlike the old airport, arrival is no longer a special channel.

I am with the departure floor. Daxing is very beautiful and the toilet is very clean. After going to the toilet, I was confused when I left the main team.

From Daxing Airport, I called a pick-up and drop-off plane.

A full hour and 10 minutes, I arrived at the foot of Huangchenggen from "Hebei" outside the Sixth Ring Road

Living at the Capital Hotel

Considering Beijing's congestion, we will rely on Didi to share bicycles and subways for the next three days

The hotel put everything away, had a simple lunch, and rushed here quickly

Forbidden City (Donghuamen)

I booked tickets for this afternoon online in advance, 40 yuan

You can purchase up to 10 days in advance through the Palace Museum's ticketing website ()

During the current epidemic, there is a limited number of 3W people per day (it is true that there are not many people, and no one can be photographed in many places)

Tickets are divided into two sessions: morning and afternoon, and must be entered strictly according to the time of the session.

It is more recommended to buy in the morning, as there will be more time to visit.

During the epidemic, the passage from Tiananmen Square to Duanmen to Wumen will not be opened, and it is necessary to go from Donghuamen to Wumen around Tongzi River.

Picture below, Donghua Gate

During the Double 11 period, I just changed my mobile phone. The super wide angle of 13 is really comfortable

Around the Tongzi River from Donghuamen, there are still unfinished ginkgo trees along the river.

It's less than 1000 meters, not very far

The ginkgo trees fall sporadically with the wind, and the river reflects the red walls and blue skies

The Forbidden City in autumn is beautiful

The park opens at 8:30 in the morning and ends at 4:30 in the afternoon

I was admitted to the hospital around 1:40. It took me three consecutive hours to finish the Western Line to places 1 - 12.

The remaining 13 to 16 were chased out while stepping on the sunset by the staff

"Play around the Forbidden City" is the best navigation software.

It marks every detail of the size, function and location of the Forbidden City, and can also play voice explanations on mobile phones.

In order to prevent the epidemic, take your ID card to the ticket office first, show Beijing's health treasure, and then activate the ticket before going to the security checkpoint to swipe your ID card and be admitted to hospital.

Many "concubines" and "princesses" appeared in the Forbidden City

I admire the girls today. They are so enthusiastic that they inspire me to peek at them from time to time

Exquisite makeup, complete costumes, flower pots and small shoes

Crossing the entrance of the Meridian Gate feels like a travel through time and space.

A sense of depth of history comes to your face, and the building symbolizing the highest power center in ancient China comes into your eyes

At Taihe Gate, there are five inner Jinshui bridges made of white marble across the square in front

The two stone lions standing at the entrance are from the Ming Dynasty. When you walk down the entire Forbidden City, these two are the most powerful and majestic.

Each hair is lifelike

For a detail enthusiast, it's perfect

The word "gold" in Jinshui River refers to the source of the river. The West belongs to gold. Gold grows in Lishui."Jinshui" is the water on Yuquan Mountain in the western suburbs of the capital.

It is winding and winding, almost running through the Forbidden City.

Eaves will always be the essence of Chinese architecture

I don't recognize all of these, so I use pictures to check in

The camera is a Canon 70D, 18-200 lens

The mobile phone has a super wide angle of 13,

When used together, it is still quite good for taking scenery.

Unfortunately, my mobile phone is not durable, and I regret not bringing a charging treasure.

One moment, one moment,

The battery on the mobile phone is running out slowly

In order to avoid the mainstream crowd, I came from the west gate,

It seems that there are eighteen locust trees here

The Wuying Hall is not currently open. There is a row of little lions on the broken red bridge next to the hall. Recently, they have been promoted to Internet celebrities.

The eyes were attracted by this smiling little lion

For more than ten years, I have always gone out together

This time I came to Beijing alone and tried a lonely scenery

One obvious drawback is that all photos can only be taken by finding a "platform" and setting up a camera to take selfies...

There are 18 locust trees to the north of Duanhong Bridge, which are also said to be ancient trees left over from the Yuan Dynasty.

Ginkgo biloba is no longer the protagonist of this time, leaving a few leaves hanging sporadically

Only one-half of the area of the Forbidden City is currently open, so we have to walk back to the central axis from time to time.

From the right wing door, go back to the central axis

Taihe Hall is the largest and highest-level building in the Forbidden City.

I recommend everyone to listen to the commentary of "Playing the Forbidden City" while playing. The scene really feels like a substitute

Remember to wear headphones...

Look at the picture below. Various palace ladies are all in the corner, changing their clothes.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony will always be the place with the largest number of people

Looking at Chinese buildings, I feel like I have thrown money on the roof

Looking at European buildings, I feel like money is thrown at pillars

From Taihe Hall, you can see the white tower in Beihai Park next to it

In the corner of the palace, there are many light pillars scattered, and small platforms provide a location for me to set up my camera

Slowly turn around, from the central axis, and walk back to the West Sixth Palace again

Among the West Sixth Palace, the largest building is the Cining Palace, which currently houses sculptures, carvings and other works

In the long river of history, most of the works of art that can be left behind are related to Buddhism

Among the sculptures, the Buddha head is the most exquisite

I picked three charity looking Buddha heads to take photos

Cining Palace and Shoukang Palace are connected

In the side hall on the side, there are wall carvings from different periods

There are also Tang Dynasty

Is the picture below the moving company at that time?

If I keep getting fat, I'll probably rush up and down the stairs with this beautiful girl

Most of the buildings are empty and have exhibition halls

Only a few rooms have their furnishings restored

I feel that ancient decoration is so simple ~

In addition to decoration, we just put wallpaper on all sides, unlike our current decoration, which has suspended ceilings and art walls

Coming out of Cining Palace and Shoukang Palace, opposite is the Cining Palace Garden.

It was already 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was particularly oblique, and there were large reflections on many palace walls

After coming out of the garden, I didn't return to the main line, and I passed through to the position of the West Sixth Palace

In the end, I didn't even know where it was ~

When I arrived at the Imperial Garden, I heard a loudspeaker ringing in the park to catch people. It was exactly 4 o'clock, and the museum would close for half an hour while the loudspeaker was ringing.

Because I thought there was still half an hour left, and the light was so beautiful now

So, for the next half hour, pass through the entire Forbidden City from the central axis

Unexpectedly, at 4:30 pm in Beijing, the sunset would come ~

Finally, I walked to Donghua Gate and came out of here. It was just 4:30...

It's for me

These three hours in the afternoon were really walking and taking pictures without stopping for a moment

That's it, we only walked about one-third of the open part of the Forbidden City ~

It's not easy to be an emperor. The family is too big.

At night, my friend invited me to eat bullfrog hotpot. There were really many people in the queue, and the taste...

I really think... Just so.

After eating hot pot, he took me, a "countryman", to Houhai Bar

Dragging his 40-year-old body and drinking until 12 o'clock, he couldn't hold it anymore. He was so sleepy that he kicked over the bottle

Old ~

Fragrant Hills without Red Leaves

I slept until I woke up naturally. At 10 o'clock, I found a place with "local characteristics" for breakfast

These steamed buns cost three for 5 yuan... Not as good as Shanghai's Tianshan big bags

This fried sauce noodles, 19 pieces, shredded cucumber, shredded radish, and a little salty sauce... Not as good as the noodles with minced meat in Xi'an

This dumpling, 27 pieces of beef fillings... Sister Li at my doorstep is still delicious

I came to Beijing twice with my parents when I was a child, and I visited all the historic sites.

This was the third time I picked up a place I had never been to before,

Think about it, there is still Xiangshan

Xiangshan's red leaves are famous. What if I come and find a leak?

One hour on the subway, here we come ~

Scan the code at the door, buy tickets, Beijing Green Code, enter, no need to make advance reservations

I entered through the East Palace Gate and climbed all the way to Xiangwu Palace, but I stopped going up

It's not difficult to climb, there is also a cable car in the north that you can get directly on

Thought I had to climb a very high mountain, but I didn't even have a SLR...

a little regret

Climbing slowly all the way down the hill, but it's not too tiring.

It's just that red leaves and ginkgo trees are all gone

The picture below is full of leaves, which are ginkgo and red leaves half a month ago

Yuhua Temple serves as a relay station, take a rest

A rare sight of snow in Xiangshan

Here at Xiangwu Pavilion, there is a platform that can overlook the city of Beijing

Turning around and looking up, forget it, I won't crawl anymore...

It's bare, nothing to see

Falling leaves are all over the ground. Hey, I'm late. I'm late.

After finishing my exercise in Xiangshan, I made an appointment with a friend in the afternoon and came to a Wanghong Cafe to experience Beijing's petty bourgeoisie.

Postpost, at No. 58 Mutton Hutong

Ordered specialty coffee and Mantelin,

The store is amazing, but there is no one here

How good coffee is, it's not so good

Stores are hard to find, it's true

The flow of people keeps coming

Dinner, taken by a friend... Internet celebrity, Hu Da

Arrived at 6 o'clock and waited in line for more than half an hour

Crayfish are sold per item, at 10 yuan each. Eating 20 for 4 people is not enough to peck their fingers

Other dishes, except for a boiling fish, feel very delicious and truly SOSO...

This price, this taste...

Plus the food we have eaten these days... So I put the rice noodles from Nanchang Airport on the first picture

Liulichang, the most smelly cultural street

Wake up naturally, 10 o'clock ~

I found a random breakfast shop, Western Malaysia

The noodles are average, and the soup is so salty

This roujiamo is a bit delicious. It is full of juice and fragrant with Baiji steamed buns ~

I was brainwashed by various TV dramas about grave digging, archeology, and antiques, so for the last half of the day, I saw that Liulichang was not far from the hotel, so I called Didi over.

Liulichang is divided into East Street and West Street, and the road is not long

Many shops on East Street are not open, but the street is a bit beautiful

After walking to the end, I found a random alley and crawled into it to feel the authentic flavor of Beijing's hutongs and people

On West Street, the most famous one is Rongbaozhai

The countertop inside immediately feels like traveling back to the 1980s

Rongbaozhai is a well-known time-honored shop selling four treasures of literature and literature. It has a history of more than 300 years.

On the second and third floors, there are exhibitions

I happened to meet Wang Xuetao's Chinese Painting Exhibition

As a student of advertising design, I have always felt that my eyes are "unique"

The picture above, I always like it. The price is 2,300 ~

In the picture below, I thought to myself, it's not pretty, and the price tag is 430000...

Okay, slap in the face comes quickly

In addition, Qi Baishi's paintings are on sale

I also watched a preview before the auction

Well, the price of the location is really many...

The three exhibition halls in Rongbaozhai took me more than an hour. Walking to the end of West Street, I entered the alley again

The hutongs with strong smell of fireworks are the real flavor of Beijing

No matter what it looks like inside, this gate slowly feels like Beijing and imperial city.

Starting from 12 noon on the 27th, when the hotel checked in,

By 12 noon on the 29th, take the subway and run to the airport

A full 48 hours in Beijing,

In the early winter of the cold wind in the north, ancient and splendid culture took a tour

Finally, the last picture of smiling little lion, over ~
