北京·孔庙丨游在中国每日一景

北京孔庙始建于元代，是元、明、清三代国家祭祀孔子的场所，与同时代最高学府国子监毗邻相通。院落沿一条中轴线规整铺展，古柏苍劲，碑刻林立，供奉孔子牌位的大成殿庄严肃穆。
Beijing Confucius Temple was built during the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368) and served as a national site for ceremonies honoring Confucius throughout the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties (1271-1911). It stands alongside the Imperial College, the highest institution of learning in imperial China at the time. Its courtyards are arranged along a central axis, with ancient cypress trees and rows of stone steles, and centered on the solemn Dacheng Hall, where Confucius was honored.
今天是教师节，置身这座古老的礼制建筑群中，瞻仰大成门外伫立的先师孔子行教像，感受中华尊师尚学传统的绵延不绝。
On Teachers' Day, step into this historic complex, pause before the statue of Confucius as a teacher outside Dacheng Gate, and discover a tradition of respecting teachers and valuing learning that has endured in China for centuries.
