游客朋友们:
大家好!首先请允许我代表沈阳市全体市民对各位的到来表示热烈欢迎!今天我为大家介绍的就是沈阳的风景名胜之一的“沈阳故宫”。
沈阳故宫始建于后金天命十年(1625年)是清太祖迁都之际草创,清崇德元年(1636年)由皇太极建成。1644年,大清迁都北京,“沈阳故宫”从此成为“陪都宫殿”。“沈阳故宫”是清太祖努尔哈赤和清太宗皇太极修建并使用过的宫殿,距今巳有360余年的历史。在全国现存宫殿建筑群中,它的历史价值和艺术价值仅次于北京故宫居全国第二位。它是中国历史上最后的一个封建王朝的发祥重地,也是清统一中国后东北地区政治经济中心。
沈阳故宫占地6万多平方米,有楼台殿阁各式建筑70余座,由20多个院落组成,总计房屋300多间。故宫按自然布局分为中路、东路和西路三部分。
中路:是太宗皇太极时期的大内宫阙。南端是大清门,也是故宫的正门。向北依次是崇政殿、凤凰褛、清宁宫,它们都排列在一条中轴线上,两侧还有一些对称式的附属建筑。
大清门是日常朝会时文武大臣侯朝的地方,也是清太宗接受群臣谢恩之处。明朝著名将领洪承畴降清后,就从此门进入,受到皇太极的接见。大清门东侧这处建筑叫祖庙,祖庙是爱新觉罗家族祭祀祖先的地方,因是天子的祖庙也称“太庙”。
顺着大清门北面的御路拾阶而上,台正中便是气势宏伟被称作“金銮殿”的政殿。它建于后金天聪六年(1632年),崇德元年定名为崇政殿。崇政殿为五间九檩硬山式建筑,南北辟有隔扇门,前后是石雕栏杆。殿顶盖为黄琉璃,十分壮观。殿内掾间绘满飞云流水,梁架上全部是“和玺” 彩绘,给人以高洁典雅之感。殿内明堂有堂陛,前是金龙蟠柱,柱后有贴金雕龙扇面大屏风和金龙宝座,宝座两侧有鼎式香炉、轩辕镜和太平有象等

The entrance hall of the temple is called The Hall of Heavenly Kings and is the shrine for Mile Buddha (Maitreya) and the Heavenly Kings (or the Divas as are called in Buddhist sutra).The statue in the middle, the man with a big belly, is Mile Buddha, who is commonly known as the Laughing Buddha because he is always grinning from ear to ear.
He is the future savior that will deliver all living beings to the Buddhist paradise after Sakyamuni’s Buddhist power is exhausted, and so he is also known as the Future Buddha. The couplet on both sides is a compliment to the Laughing Buddha, meaning literally: “A big belly can hold the world’s troubles that are troubling people. An open mouth is smiling at those who are to be smiled at.”
On either side of the hall we can see two statues. They are the four Heavenly Kings, who are protectors of Buddhist doctrines, with each taking care of one side-the east, west, north and south. It is their joint efforts that ensure harmony, peace and prosperity of the world. The four objects they are holding-a "pipa"(a Chinese pluck instrument),an umbrella, a snake and a sword-combine to mean that Buddha will ensure a favorable weather for the crops so that people may live a happy life.
Statue at the back of the Laughing Buddha is the patron of the temple, Wei Tuo or Veda by name, who is number one among the 32 generals under the four Heavenly Kings.
