十年前後

因出差之便，重遊紫禁城。原以為隨著祖國越富越強，兩朝皇宮能重拾昔日光輝。那想到十年不見，景像更是凋落。瓊樓玉宇捱得住六百年的風霜，敵不過十年間的污染與遊客的摧殘。唉。



太和殿外的日晷，象徵皇權，表示天子掌控臣民的時間。四時萬物，皆從朕受 (乎?)




中國人的兩個習性之一：摸頭。無論是獅子老虎靈龜還是貔貅，無論是鎏金青銅抑或頑石，總之有頭就要摸，沾沾仙氣，保佑平安。




保得了「和」，保不住自己的招牌。




內廷的消防缸，品級低，不起眼，卻得以免遭非禮。




乾清宮內的涼風從側門門縫滲出來 -- 那怕外頭驕陽似火，屋裡自有清風送爽。不得不佩服古人設計的精巧。




大門開在東側 -- 是少數以滿人傳統設計的屋子。




走了大半個外廷才發現從無一棵植物點綴，莊嚴 (肅殺?) 得很。故來到內廷，看到兩株花樹奪牆而出，份外嫵媚。也讓我想到「紅杏出牆」，真是大吉利是呀皇帝!




很少看到中空的宮殿圍欄~




御花園竟然有噴水池！




這就是後宮嬪妃重陽佳節所登的「山」。這麼一丁點的石頭也喚作山，教泰山黃山情何以堪。




中國人的兩個習性之二：掟錢落水池。無論裡頭是龜是魚或空無一物，無論手上有的是銅板還是鈔票，總之有個池就要掟 D 錢落去。萬試萬靈。




10 年前來還能在御花園的假石山上蹓躂，現在已是行人止步了。




中國國情的最佳示範 - 活動的門檻。有錢/ 權什麼都可以拆。




這高牆之間的少許空間，是幾許人一生的全部？




臨近打烊時份，難得的寧靜。




重點是男人 T SHIRT 上的字......




同場加映：燒燶了的央視，大刺刺的豎立在北京的 CBD ...
