There are too many unique furnishings in the Forbidden City of China, and the exquisite bronze lion is one of the most eye-catching ones. A series has been produced and is being uploaded one after another.

Among the bronze lions in the Forbidden City, the pair in front of the Taihe Gate is the largest. It is exquisite in shape and more ornately decorated. It is very harmonious and proportionate in front of the grand and tall Taihe Gate. However, it is not gilded and has no style. Based on its shape and casting, it is speculated that it may be from the Ming Dynasty.

The bronze lion is vivid in shape, lifelike and lifelike. It squats on a stone base with its mouth open and toothy, as if it is roaring and roaring. It has a crown on its neck and a bell and tassel tied under its neck. Its limbs and claws are strong and powerful, showing a ferocious character. In each pair of lions, the one on the right is a female lion, stretching out her left leg to tease the cub. The little lion is lying on his back with a big single paw in his mouth, fully reflecting the warmth of maternal love; on the left is a male lion, stretching out his right leg and playing with a hydrangea ball, which is reminiscent of the legendary lion dance movements in my country. These fully reflect the wisdom and creativity of the ancient working people.
