On the B-side of Yongle Palace in Shanxi, remember to look up

The A-side of Yongle Palace is famous for its murals But photography is not allowed... So how could such a vast Yongle Palace only have murals? Mr. Liang Sicheng once said: 'The roofs of ancient Chinese buildings have never been superfluous.' Look up, it's fascinating, snap away, and you'll discover the B-side of Yongle Palace 🐲Chimera ✅On top of the Hall of the Three Purities: With a dragon head and fish tail, peacock blue glazed tiles, there's even a little man in the dragon's mouth, the Rain Master to the east, and the Thunder God P1 in the middle ✅On top of the Hall of Pure Yang: Huge in size with a wide mouth and sharp teeth, a dragon tail at each end of the chimera, the eastern side features a coiled dragon in the world, the western side a soaring dragon breaking through the sky P1 below ✅On top of the Hall of Double Yang: Similar in design to the Hall of Pure Yang, slightly inferior in detail, after all, the three main halls can't be outdone by the two main halls P1 above 🏯Four Short Men Also known as men with no way out, they usually stand at the front end of the four eaves, in the image of warriors. One version identifies them as: Han Xin, Zhou Yu, Luo Cheng, and Pang Juan, while another version has: Zi Du, Pang Juan, Han Xin, Luo Cheng, standing at the four corners of the Hall of Double Yang in Yongle Palace, all four were talented but had short-lived fates as heroes 🪦The Stele of the Great Morning Reconstruction of the Great Pure Yang Longevity Palace The C-position among all the steles in Yongle Palace, an original from the Yuan dynasty, now fenced off, the stele is very tall, remember to look up ⛩️Architecture Four grand halls, among which the Dragon and Tiger Hall and the Hall of the Three Purities have hip-and-gable roofs, while the Hall of Pure Yang and the Hall of Double Yang have resting hill roofs, with a clear distinction in rank Yongle Palace Please stop obsessing over the legitimacy of taking photos of the murals Look up more, isn't the B-side tempting⁉️
