Descrizione

large 8vo, softcover. 313 pages. Numerous illustrations. End paper maps. "One hundred sites selected for the book range from a cave where Peking Man was discovered to architectural wonders built in the modern period. Gardens and temples, mausolea and palaces, bridges and pagodas are all included in this fascinating guide. The monuments have been chosen to show the development of Chinese art and architecture over the millenia, and to do so in a way that reflects both the dazzling variety of cultural influences -- the indigenous and the imported -- and the immense geographical scope of Chinese civilization. This guided tour takes the reader from the old Forbidden City (now the Palace Museum) in Beijing, the Great Wall at Badaling and the mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor in Shaanxi Province to Potala, the Tibetan palace of the Dalai Lamas, the tomb of Genghis Khan in Inner Mongolia and the Temple of Confucius in Taiwan". guida ai monumenti storici cinesi, in inglese
