An RV, the routine of Jingchuan Liyu to travel

Chapter 110 Princess Wencheng's Clay Sculpture

"Don't wear hats or sunglasses to visit the Potala Palace. Ladies who love beauty, don't dress too revealingly. After all, the Potala Palace is a famous holy place, right? And it is recommended that women not wear high heels to visit."

As he said that, Ye Qiu looked towards Riyu Igawa, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that this chick was wearing small leather shoes today.

"Ye Qiu, why can't you wear high heels?" Riyu Ikawa was puzzled, what kind of weird requests are these?

Ye Qiu explained: "One: high-heeled shoes will be inconvenient to walk on, and two: high-heeled shoes will make a relatively crisp sound when walking."

"I see."

Riyo Ikawa understood that it was indeed not suitable to wear high heels on some serious occasions.

"Also, there is a time limit for visiting the Potala Palace, that is, from the time you enter the White House building of the Potala Palace, your visit time cannot exceed one hour."

"Some viewers will definitely protest. I paid for the tickets! Why is it only an hour, the time is too short."

Ye Qiu said lightly: "Don't worry, one hour is enough for you to visit the Potala Palace, as long as you are not walking at the speed of ants."

"And last but not least."

"On the way to the Potala Palace, you will pass through some security checks. Some tourists from the mainland will be more excited and curious when they see the police uncles at the security check. Remember not to take pictures of them, otherwise the consequences will be serious. Remember not to take pictures of them in the snow area. Take photos of police officers, police booths, police cars, and other people and things that involve public safety!"

"Generally speaking, that's all you need to pay attention to..."

……

After saying this, Ye Qiu went straight to the gate, where there were ticket inspectors.

After checking the tickets, Ye Qiu and Igawa Riyu entered the Potala Palace together!

"Ye Qiu, I shouldn't have asked a question. Why does this place look a little quaint?"

What Riyu Igawa really wanted to express was actually a bit shabby, but I am embarrassed to say it directly, after all, the status of the Potala Palace is here.

Just like Riyo Ikawa's feeling, the audience instantly felt a retro atmosphere spread over the surface.

Especially some design statues, just like the ancient ones, like old antiques!
Ye Qiu smiled and said, "Do you know how long the Potala Palace has existed?"

"how long?"

"More than 1000 years!"

"No way... it's been so long???"

Not only Igawa Riyu was shocked, but even the audience was shocked.

It cannot be said that there are no historical sites preserved more than 1000 years ago, but there are very few, really few.

Because it is difficult for any building to withstand the erosion of wind, sand and time, basically it can be said that there is no such thing. Even the Potala Palace in front of you has undergone restoration.

Ye Qiu said: "Yes, more than 1000 years."

"And the mystery of the Potala Palace's thousand-year standing still has a reason."

"The first is the selection of the site. The Potala Palace is built on the Red Mountain. The Red Mountain is not high. It is a rocky mountain. The thickest part of the foundation deep into the mountain is more than five meters. Therefore, the foundation is particularly stable."

"The second is construction. The overall wall of the Potala Palace is a shrinking wall. The wall becomes thinner as it goes up. The thinnest part of the wall is less than one meter. If molten iron is poured into the wall, the wall must be firm."

"The third is to choose "craftsman". According to observations, the shapes of the walls of the Potala Palace are different. The east wall is as sharp as a knife and axe, while the west wall is as smooth as a ball. This is done by two craftsmen with diametrically opposite personalities."

The words fall.

The barrage keeps coming up!

"Awesome!"

"This is really the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancients!"

"It turns out that the Potala Palace has existed for so long!"

"I have to say, this is also one of the miracles of Huaguo civilization!"

……

Ye Qiu interacted with the audience,

Soon, we came to a Buddhist scripture pavilion!

"The precious scriptures here are beyond people's imagination."

"Tibetans believe in Buddhism and cannot do without scriptures. The collection of scriptures in the Potala Palace is so rich that it can be said that there is only one in the world, and there is no second."

"In the Potala Palace, there are a large number of scriptures, and there are many precious scriptures. Among them, the Tripitaka "Ganluer" is painted with gold powder. It is true that you can see gold from page to page, but you have to feel that this is precious. That would be wrong."

"Another Tripitaka "Tanjur" is made of gold, silver, pearl, amber, coral, agate and other powders, and is matched with precious silk cloth. It can be said to be the most expensive scripture in the world."

"There is also a unique book in the world, which is the "Bay-leaf Sutra". This sutra has been lost, and there is only this one."

Ye Qiu's introduction undoubtedly caused an uproar in the live broadcast room again!
"Wori, these scriptures are even gilded! What an eye-opener!"

"Gold is nothing, amber, agate, pearls, which one is not worth more than gold??"

"Poverty limits my imagination!"

"It feels like everything here is full of babies!"

"It's no exaggeration to say that all my net worth may not be worth a single scripture!"

……

The audience sighed.

Ikawa Riyu was also very surprised, a scripture was decorated with such gold and pearls?
so rich!
"You thought it was just for decoration?"

Ye Qiu seemed to see through what Igawa Riyu was thinking, and said, "The more important reason is that this can protect the scriptures to a certain extent, so that these scriptures can be better preserved."

"I understand."

Riyo Igawa had indeed heard of such claims.

Next, the two came to the palace next door.

There are many tourists here, everyone's expression is more or less, with a trace of piety, looking at a particularly precious clay sculpture in the palace!

"Ye Qiu, is that Princess Wencheng's?"

Riyo Ikawa looked at the clay sculpture and asked.

"Yes."

Ye Qiu said: "When it comes to clay sculptures, most people think they are worthless."

"But this statue of Princess Wencheng is unusual."

"Ordinary clay statues only need to be made of clay, but the craftsmanship of this statue is very complicated."

"According to records, this mud contains a large amount of powder of precious treasures such as pearls, emeralds, dzi beads, and jade."

"It is also necessary to add ground scriptures, a large amount of saffron, cotton fibers, etc., so that the whole statue will not crack, rot, or be eaten by insects for thousands of years."

Hearing this, the audience was stunned.

Suddenly, I felt that the scriptures were nothing.

A tall statue of a person actually contains powder of precious treasures such as pearls, emeralds, dzi beads, and jade?
What kind of handwriting is this?
"I can't believe it!"

"Now I feel that the Potala Palace is completely a treasure palace!"

……

The audience sighed.

And Riyo Igawa was also dumbfounded.

The key point is that this clay sculpture is still very beautiful and delicate, which shows that Princess Wencheng was definitely a beautiful woman during her lifetime.

If it wasn't for the clear order here, Riyo Igawa would really like to take out his phone to take some photos...

And speaking of this, Ye Qiu thought of something.

He said to the audience: "When you come to the Potala Palace, you will definitely think of Songtsan Gampo and Princess Wencheng. After all, this palace is for the two of them to get married."

"But, do you know where they got married?"
