What places of interest did Beijing leave in the Yuan Dynasty?

Monuments left by the Yuan Dynasty in Beijing;

1. Beijing Metropolitan City Wall Ruins Park was built on the site of Metropolitan Tucheng, the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. It starts from the vicinity of Mingguang Village, Xueyuan South Road, Haidian District in the west, reaches Huangtingzi in the north, turns to Madian and Qijiahuozi in the east, and reaches the vicinity of shaoyaoju in Chaoyang District, which generally coincides with the northern section of subway 10 line. The Tucheng wall near Madian is 12.5m high and 3 1m wide. There is a place outside Deshengmen called Tuchengguan, which is the site of Jiandemen in Yuan Dynasty. .

Second, the Yuan Dynasty execution ground

Speaking of the ancient execution ground in Beijing, the most famous ones are Xisi Pailou in Ming Dynasty and Caishikou in Qing Dynasty, but do you know where the execution ground in Yuan Dynasty is? At the west exit of Fu Xue Hutong today. There is a Wen Tianxiang ancestral temple opposite the Beijing Cultural Relics Bureau. This place is the Yuan Dynasty dungeon where Wen Tianxiang was imprisoned.

It is said that after the defeat of the Yuan Army in the Southern Song Dynasty, Wen Tianxiang's immediate superior, "Zhao Xian", failed to set an example for the courtiers, even voted Xiang to be a prisoner of the Yuan Dynasty, and even shamelessly persuaded Wen Tianxiang to surrender.

In this way, Wen Tianxiang refused to give up. He cried bitterly, kneeling with his face facing north, and said to Song Gongdi, "Please go back". In the end, Wen Tianxiang died heroically in the execution ground at the west exit of Fu Xue Hutong. In the Ming Dynasty, the dungeon where Wen Tianxiang was imprisoned was transformed into "Wen Tianxiang Ancestral Temple". Hundreds of years later, this building turned out to be the only evidence of the "Yuan Dynasty execution ground".

Third, the ancestral temple of the Yuan Dynasty.

No.223, Chaoyangmennei Street, Beijing, is a temple built in the Ming Dynasty and named "Daci Yanfu Palace". At that time, the three immortals of "heaven, earth and water" worked here, so it was also called "Sanguan Temple". Where there are immortals, there will naturally be incense, but strangely, from the end of the Ming Dynasty to the early years of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, no one actually burned incense in Daciyan House. Why?

According to folklore, when the Chu kings of Li Zicheng and Enemy at the Gates were in an emergency, Emperor Chongzhen tried everything, including drawing lots for fortune-telling at the Great Compassion Yanfu Palace. As expected, Chongzhen's three requirements are "signing a contract". Finally, he angrily issued an imperial edict: This merciful Yanfu Palace is forbidden to accept incense from now on.

Fourth, the bedroom of the Empress of the Yuan Dynasty

The queen's bedroom in Yuan Dynasty is now buried under Jingshan Mountain. For more than 800 years, this palace has shouldered the expectations of three dynasties, which is overwhelming.

Many people think that Jingshan was only built in the Ming Dynasty, but it is not. When the Yuan Dynasty made Beijing its capital, a small earth mountain was built in the present Jingshan position, which was then called "Castle Peak". The bedroom of the Empress of the Yuan Dynasty is just to the south of Castle Peak. On the surface, this "green hill" is just a big bonsai in the backyard of the imperial court, but in fact it is to suppress the kingship of the Jin Dynasty.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) Folk Houses in Yuan Dynasty

Now everything pays attention to returns, and the rich are tired of living in buildings, and they begin to aim at quadrangles that are warm in winter and cool in summer. What's more, a two-story building was built in the yard. Although it is a combination of ancient and modern, it is inevitable that it is a bit neither fish nor fowl. Speaking of which, what was this quadrangle like at the earliest? This has to start from the Yuan Dynasty.

In 1970s, in Houyingfang Hutong, Xinjiekou, Xicheng District, Beijing, archaeologists discovered a residential site in the Yuan Dynasty. After research, it is determined that this is the earliest quadrangle form in Beijing.

6. The mural of Yuan Tomb in Miyun County, Beijing is characterized by skillful depiction of the lines of characters' costumes and meticulous depiction of the lines of flowers and bamboos, especially the appearance of plum blossoms and bamboos as a picture, which is extremely rare in the previous mural.

Seven. Jingshan Park

Outside the inner wall of the original scene, there is a Yu He River flowing from Beihai to Tongzi River in the Forbidden City. This river existed in the Yuan Dynasty. Travel Notes of Marco Polo: "The stream flowing through the artificial lake flows out of the ditch at the foot of the green hill and flows into the big and deep artificial lake between the emperor's palace and the crown prince's palace." Another culvert along Jingshan passes through the inner wall of Jingshan and flows into the garden to irrigate flowers and trees and eight hectares of cultivated land in Yuan Di, pushing the water mill to grind the grain. In the past, there were Yuan Dynasty culverts from west to east in Jingshan cypress forest. There are still many rectangular granite strips on the northern slope of Jingshan Mountain, and the lower part is saddle-shaped, which was the sealing stone of Jingshan culvert in Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. The culvert of Jingshan Garden in Jin Fang has been damaged and is impassable. In front of Guande Palace, a section of canal became Amin River less than 100 meters, and then turned into an underground canal in front of Zhongyi Palace, flowing out from the wall of Jingshan East.

On Jingshan Mountain, Eta Ursa major was built in the Jin Dynasty, and the Green Pavilion was built on it, which is also described by Kyle Poirot.

Yuan dynasty emperor ploughing place: located in the northwest of Jingshan Park. Every year, the emperor personally cultivates here.

Xingqing Pavilion: pyramid-shaped roof, yellow glazed tiles, heavy building with green edges, three rooms wide and three rooms deep, and the upper floor is surrounded by wooden corridors. The ground floor is a masonry structure with stone coupon doors on both sides. This was originally a symbolic barn built by the Yuan Dynasty for the emperor.
