China's Mini Forbidden City - Datong Palace, feel the royal style!

After Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, established Nanjing as the capital, he made many of his sons kings. Zhu Yuanzhang's thirteenth son was named Zhu Gui, who was granted the title of King of Dai in Datong. Zhu Gui built a large-scale construction project in Datong City and constructed a small Forbidden City of China - the Datong Dai Wangfu. One day, the King of Dai suddenly thought of visiting Beijing to see his brother Zhu Di. After arriving in Beijing, he was strolling on the street one day and looked up to see a very beautiful Nine-Dragon Wall in front of Zhu Di's palace. So he clamored to build a Nine-Dragon Wall in front of the Dai Palace in Datong. The emperor had no choice but to agree to his request, but asked him to reduce the dragon claws on the wall to four claws, to distinguish it from the emperor's five-clawed dragon. In the middle of the dragon wall is a golden sleeping dragon, which is lifelike, and the other eight glazed colorful dragons are either fighting in the waves and playing with pearls, or holding their heads high and standing up. The huge Sumeru pedestal is carved with lions, tigers, elephants, deer, dogs, unicorns, horses, cows and other animals. Some of them are galloping, while others are looking back with their tails swung. It is vivid and shocking. It is truly the best dragon wall in the world.
