I've been longing for the distant places, especially Tibet and Heilongjiang, which I plan to go to. So when I was in college, I used my winter vacation time to visit Heilongjiang for nearly half a month, punched in many scenic spots, and found a minority treasure spot that was super nice, that is, Harbin Confucian Temple.
Confucian Temple
The Confucian Temple, now the National Museum of Heilongjiang Province, is a 3A-level scenic spot. It is located at No.25, Confucian Temple Street, nangang district, Harbin Engineering University. It was built to pay homage to Confucius, an outstanding educator and thinker in ancient China. It is known as the "Forbidden City" in Harbin. It is the last existing Confucius Temple in China and has a unique significance in the history of Confucius Temple in China.

Recommended reason:: The Confucian Temple in Harbin is regarded as a scenic spot building in Harbin. After all, the prominent buildings in Harbin are European Baroque and Rococo Russian buildings. That is, when Russia colonized the Northeast, Russian architecture, Russian merchandise stores and other Russian cultures were all over the street. The Confucian Temple in Harbin was built in 1926 to present national characteristics and not forget national culture, and was built in 1929 as a cultural product against western culture.
Introduction to the tour: The Heilongjiang Provincial Museum for Nationalities on the east side introduces the lifestyle and dress styles of ethnic groups such as Oroqen, Ewenki and Hezhe who are hunting and fishing in the north (impressed by fish skin costumes and fish skin decorative paintings), as well as the culture and history of Jurchen ethnic groups. The west side introduces Confucius and Confucian culture and history. The place dedicated to Confucius is called Confucius Temple or Confucian Temple. It was designed and built according to the scale of the large-scale ceremony of offering sacrifices to Confucius and the system of the imperial palace, to show respect for Confucius, a teacher of all ages. Harbin Confucian Temple adopts the highest-ranking "Da Si Specification" in architectural specifications. As the highest-ranking Confucian Temple in China, Harbin Confucian Temple (11 bays) is second only to Shandong Qufu Confucius Temple (9 bays) and Beijing Confucius Temple (9 bays). The building is surrounded by red walls, with a yellow glazed tile roof. The building is magnificent, the courtyard layout is rigorous and symmetrical, and it is patchwork. The top-grade "Golden Dragon and Seal" form is used for painting. Dacheng Hall is the main hall, with east-west symmetrical halls. In addition, there are Panchi, Panqiao, Lingxing Gate, Yemen and stone tablets. In particular, concrete materials are introduced into the temple, but the appearance is generally the same as that of other Confucius temples. In winter, red walls and white glazed tiles are very suitable for classical Hanfu shooting. In the imperial examination system, the champion came to worship Confucius and open the main entrance. Now, in order to cheer up the students, many students and their parents come to bow down and burn incense and pray before the college entrance examination, write down a wishing note, cross the Champion Bridge, drop coins in the wishing pool, touch the octopus, and hang dragon lanterns and red silk, burn high incense and pray for to be no.1. In the courtyard, there is an inscription written by Zhang Xueliang, commander-in-chief of security in the three northeastern provinces, "China is the most sacred motherland, and Harbin is the wrong place for Chinese." To show the checks and balances and dissatisfaction of the northeast people with western rule and to inspire the great feelings of the nation.
Do not miss the punch-in attractions:
? Dacheng hall It is the largest building in the temple, with double eaves and eleven rooms wide. Like the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City, its specifications are extremely high (it was probably not built in the Qing Dynasty). Although the new materials and technologies such as reinforced concrete are introduced into the temple, its appearance is no different from that of the traditional Confucius Temple, which reflects the eclecticism of architecture in the Republic of China.
? Experience of shooting architecture by mobile phone: The buildings of the Confucian Temple are rich in color, so don't worry about monotony. You need to pay attention to the composition of the picture. When shooting the whole building, you can try a more positive angle. Keeping the building picture parallel to the edge of the mobile phone can make some leaves enter the picture, enhance the sense of the picture, and can also match with the surrounding scenery. The scenery occupies one third of the picture to enlarge the shooting multiple of the mobile phone and can shoot some architectural details. Buildings in the sun have the brightest colors, so you can make more use of the sunshine environment.
