The Forbidden City, a building that bears thousands of years of Chinese history, is of great significance to Chinese. Its splendor and vastness not only come from the red walls and tiles and golden brilliance, but also from the past it has precipitated.

**The chairman has visited the Forbidden City three times, but each time he stopped at the city wall, what is the reason for this? Is it because the chairman has a unique understanding of the Forbidden City? Let's start at the beginning.

Walking through the front of the Forbidden City, the magnificence makes people have mixed tastes. For Chinese and foreign visitors, the Forbidden City is an indispensable stop in the itinerary, and its beauty amazes the whole world, including the chairman.

In 1919, the young *** appreciated the magnificence of the Forbidden City for the first time. At that time, he and a group of aspiring young people arrived in Beijing from south to north to explore new ideas for saving the country and the people.

**Passing by the Forbidden City with Yang Kaihui, I couldn't help but sigh, with such a huge Forbidden City, wouldn't the old emperor be lonely? At that time, the Forbidden City was not yet open to the public, and although the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty had been deposed, he still lived in it.

Therefore, although I was shocked by the magnificence of the Forbidden City, I could not enter the Forbidden City. However, since then, the solemnity of the Forbidden City has been deeply imprinted in the heart of ***, for him, the glory and tragedy of the Forbidden City seem to be a bit contradictory.

The magnificence of the Forbidden City is amazing; Ironically, an abolished feudal emperor was able to live in it, while many displaced civilians did not have a secure place to live.

Thirty years later, when he stepped into Peking again, he had become a leader who combined the spirit of the Communist Party and the hope of the people. Despite the difficult and important nature of the war, the protection of cultural relics has always been our top priority, because it is a cultural treasure of the Chinese nation that has been precipitated for thousands of years.

Due to the fierce confrontation between our party and the Kuomintang reactionaries, we could have directly ordered to attack the Kuomintang reactionaries remaining in Beiping by strong methods, but we thought of the Forbidden City and those precious cultural relics.

** Instead of giving a direct order to attack, the construction professionals were instructed to draw up detailed drawings as soon as possible to identify where they could be attacked and where they could not be destroyed.

He particularly emphasized the importance of cultural relics to the country, which are the precious wealth of the nation and the historical and cultural treasures that the whole nation should jointly protect. After the liberation of Beiping, special funds were allocated for the protection and management of cultural relics, which fully reflected the awareness of cultural relics protection of the leaders of our party.

**I am full of deep emotions for the Forbidden City, but why did I climb the city wall three times and not enter? In 1954, ** took two companions to visit the Forbidden City, but a wonderful thing happened, I saw *** pick up the bench and sit leisurely on the city tower, looking into the distance, and did not forget to share the fruit to his companions.

The companion proposed to go deep into the Forbidden City, but *** waved his hand and declined. So, since it was because I was busy with official business last time, I should have gone in and had a look this time, right?

However, a few days later, when passing by the Forbidden City, he still only climbed the city wall to look into the distance, and occasionally paid attention to the newly unearthed cultural relics.

The third time I visited the Forbidden City, the situation was the same as the first two times, ** although I had the intention of taking a group photo, but in the end I stayed outside the city wall. This reflects ***'s deep love for the Forbidden City and cultural relics, but for some reasons, he doesn't want to get involved in it.

Presumably, there could be two reasons. First of all, although the Forbidden City is a historical building worth seeing, it was once a symbol of the old imperial power and the old feudalism, which is contrary to the ideas advocated by the new China.

Secondly, it is the leadership of New China and the leadership of the people. The past of the Forbidden City is full of imperial power and **, even if it is beautiful, ** is reluctant to step in, because it represents the will and power of the people, not a symbol of imperial power.

The founding of New China is like opening a new chapter in Chinese history, and that crease means a new beginning and full of hope for all Chinese. The Forbidden City is beautiful, but whenever I think of the people and the country, I am more willing to stop at the city wall, look at those Chinese treasures from afar, and my heart is full of expectations for the future.
