After the destruction of the Yuanmingyuan, the Empress Dowager Cixi Tongzhi Emperor instructed to choose among more than 3,000 temples rebuilt, after the end forced to stop due to depletion of financial repair. Summer Palace's second catastrophe occurred in 1900, the Allied Forces invaded Beijing, Chengde, Hebei Emperor Xianfeng fled the Rehe Palace, Yuanmingyuan coalition looting the treasures, once again burned the Yuanmingyuan, garden of the park which was completely destroyed , no repair possible for generation of a heap of ruins Garden, alas!
Standing in ruins, I stroked the pillars of relief, I review the history of tracking the footprints of the eyes where the tears had filled the crystal. Sun, the Western House were smashed carved post still, you can clearly see the workmanship is very fine and beautiful sculpture, but it was the white marble is so miserable. Not far from the square appearance of the base is also conceivable that the architect was extraordinary talent, just the height of charred silent reminder of that crazy fire years ago.
I am marching Shidi remnants, artificial hills and watch the numerous Kong Fu is still rolling, twists and turns have caused, it has caused me endless meditation. Yuanmingyuan relics are the remnants of a large number of historical evidence, an indictment of imperialist crimes crazy trampling of human civilization. The Qing rulers has always been arrogant, closed-door policy, which makes a broken, hard times, resulting in the Summer Palace twice suffered the tragedy of fire, how can we not cited as a warning too! Do not forget national humiliation, rejuvenate the Chinese nation, this is not a slogan, an empty, it needs the efforts of several generations down to earth.
The Summer Palace is the dry summer, which I did not see the pool of clear water. I heard recently is to pool water, in order to greet the coming National Day Golden Week. Water Pik Shan-ching, wooded Yuanmingyuan Ruins Park, will become a place for people to relax, it will inspire us to become a battle of pride and patriotism base. Bullied, the development is of overriding importance. Destruction of the Yuanmingyuan, the shame of our nation, history of trauma, we can never forget.
