阿房宫

Afang Palace

摘要:

公元前212年，秦始皇下令兴建一组大规模的宫殿建筑群——朝宫，朝宫的前殿就是历史上有名的阿房宫。工程浩大，秦始皇死时只建成一个前殿。项羽到咸阳，一把火将秦朝宫室烧光，火势蔓延，三月不止，阿房宫被焚。阿房宫现今遗址为一长方形夯土台，东西长1300多米，南北宽500米，台基局部最高十余米。唐朝诗人杜牧在《阿房宫赋》描述了它的富丽恢弘。阿房宫遗址已列为全国重点文物保护单位。

Abstract:

In 212 BC, Emperor Qin Shi Huang ordered the construction of a large palace complex, chao Gong. The front hall of chao Gong was the historic Epang Palace. The project was so huge that when Qin Shihuang died, only one front hall was completed. After that, Xiang Yu went to Xianyang and burned down all the qin palaces, including the Epang Palace. The present ruins of Epang Palace are only a rectangular rammed earth platform, 1,300 meters long from east to west, 500 meters wide from north to south, with the highest partial base of more than 10 meters. Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu described its magnificence in his Ode to the Epang Palace. The epang Palace site has been listed as a key cultural relic site under national protection.
