I flew to Beijing just to see it!

I came to Beijing just to see the "heavenly palace" in Su Shi's poem. I flew here just to see the caisson of Longfu Temple in the Beijing Ancient Architecture Museum. It is the real-life version of the "heavenly palace, jade tower, and jade palace." The caisson is made of golden nanmu, and the star map on the top has more than 1,400 stars shining brightly. It is extremely exquisite, and the wooden architecture is stunning beyond words. The dragon carvings on the ceiling of the Taisui Hall are lifelike, showing the beauty of "carved beams and painted buildings, and the craftsmanship of ghosts and gods." The Shencang stores the grain that the emperor personally plowed. It is across the street and requires a second ticket check. There is also a legend of "one mu and three points of land." After visiting, you can go to the cultural and creative store, which has exquisite caissons and Shencang refrigerator magnets. Address: Beijing Ancient Architecture Museum. Tickets are CNY 15 per person, open from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm (closed on Mondays), free guided tours, two sessions from Tuesday to Friday, and four sessions from Saturday to Sunday.
