Chapter 279 Luxurious State Hall
Celebrities still have special channels?
Domestic scenic spots still dare not blatantly open this function...
Ye Kai looked at the bustling crowds around, thinking that everyone has come here, wouldn't it be a waste of time not to go in and have a look around?So even if I had the intention of leaving before, now I am leaving with the young lady in front.
Everyone else can go, why can't I go?
In the final analysis, Buckingham Palace is a palace. Besides the front yard, it has many small gates, some of which are locked tightly, and some are guarded by soldiers.
Bypassing the crowded entrance of the scenic spot, the two came to the other side of Buckingham Palace. The inside of the fence looked like a delicate and small garden.
After the girl told them Ye Kai's identity, the two tall guards grinned at Ye Kai and let Ye Kai in.
The British soldiers have very expressive expressions. I saw a soldier jokingly yelling at tourists in the square before, and here I saw another one with a good smile.
As soon as the guards gave way, Ye Kai saw a sign on the fence.
"The fifth entrance?"
It turns out that this is also an open visitor entrance.
However, this entrance is different from ordinary tourists, and the ticket is probably not the one Ye Kai is holding.
If it wasn't for the girl from the staff, Ye Kai probably wouldn't be able to pass here.
There is a small garden inside, and there are not many tourists coming and going. It should not be the only way to visit several places, so not everyone will come here.
Seeing someone walking in through this small door, the tourists looked at Ye Kai curiously, but soon went about their own business.
Some girls were very open-minded, they looked Ye Kai up and down unscrupulously for a long time, and when Ye Kai looked over, they even got a wink.
Ye Kai hurriedly left this position.
Buckingham Palace has three places for tourists to visit, including the State Hall, the Royal Stables and the Queen's Art Garden. If you want to see them all, you can buy a pass.
This is the one Ye Kai bought, at £39.5.
This is where the queen works, and there will certainly not be too many visiting areas open.
After bypassing this garden, you can see a long corridor, and there is a sign in the sunlight in the distance, and you can see the map of Buckingham Palace.
After the people in front looked at the map and left, Ye Kai joined in.
"This corridor is the corridor to Xiyuan."
This corridor will lead all the way to the entrance of the west building of the quadrangle. All the tourists are going on this side, but Buckingham Palace has limited the number of tourists, so it is not as crowded as outside.
In fact, what tourists can visit is limited to the west building, which is also the most luxurious part of the whole building.
There is a Greek-style colonnade in front of the west building, but there are no carved patterns. The colonnade used to be a door, but now it is sealed by glass and has become a place to watch royal carriages.
Ye Kai saw a guide, but it was too far away, so Ye Kai moved in that direction.
Before hearing the explanation, someone stopped Ye Kai. It was a man in a black suit. After stopping Ye Kai, he pointed to Ye Kai's camera and said, "Videos and photos are not allowed here."
"I do not have."
Ye Kai picked up the camera, but the front cover hadn't been taken off yet.
When I turned back, the team had gone far away, and Ye Kai searched around in the hall but couldn't find it, so he shrugged his shoulders and decided to see for himself.
Ye Kai is very proficient in explaining Ye Kai, and because of the increase in hearing, Ye Kai can hear what the explainer said from a long distance.
Unlike before, you still need to mix in the team of tour groups.
Turning around and entering the hall on the first floor, a gorgeous atmosphere rushed over.
The British royal family must like gold and red the most, because these two colors are all in this palace, which is magnificent and makes people walk more carefully.
No matter what is damaged here, ordinary people cannot afford compensation, right?
There are replicas of ancient Roman statues in the golden niches at the four corners of the hall. On the right side, you can see a large fireplace with a clock. If you don't look closely, go up the stairs on the left.
The red carpet was very soft and clean, and the resplendent hall brought Ye Kai back to the day when he visited the Paris Opera House.
The most luxurious and luxurious place in the Paris Opera House is only the lounge, but here is a whole building, and everything in this building makes Ye Kai feel that the price is absolutely expensive.
All conspicuous places of this staircase are plated with gold. The gold railings, gold wall lamps, gold pillars, and even the reliefs on the ceiling are all glittering and dazzling.
Walking up the stairs, Ye Kai occasionally looked back.
Wow.
Ye Kai's right hand was shaking, and he thought in his heart: "Can't shoot, can't shoot!"
He really wanted to take a picture of this place. At the top of the curved staircase stood a bronze statue of Perseus beheading Medusa, and the surrounding oil paintings were all paintings by famous artists.
Looking up, you can see a blooming flower.
It's not a real flower, but the glass on the roof is made into a circle and divided into countless parts, which looks like the petals of a flower.
The light shines directly, Ye Kai seems to be able to see light and dust.
Going forward with shock, you will arrive at a hall where you can rest. There are benches here to sit down and calm down the excitement of the tour.
It's strange, some people don't feel particularly emotional no matter what they see during the trip, but there are also some people, such as Ye Kai.
When I see beauty, or something I like, I go crazy with excitement.
This lounge is called Drawing Room, but it does not mean a studio.
It actually comes from the word Withdrawing Room, which is a name used by princes and nobles in the 16th century for the reception room before entering the main hall, which is equivalent to the waiting room before a grand meeting, and was gradually shortened to Drawing Room.
There are several such parlors in Buckingham Palace, named after the color of the walls of the rooms.The next room next to it is the throne room where the king received his ministers.
Under the tall velvet canopy at the end of the room, there are two thrones. The room where the thrones are placed cannot be entered, and Ye Kai can only take a look outside.
The roof is inlaid with the coat of arms of different territories of the United Kingdom, and there are beautiful oil paintings everywhere. The paintings are famous figures from various periods. The background of the oil paintings should be painted in Buckingham Palace.
It is very big, very shiny, and decorated with a lot of gold and silver.
But it doesn't feel vulgar at all. This kind of decoration style will give people an extremely shocking effect visually. It is worthy of being the royal palace still in use in Britain.
Turn left from the Throne Hall into a 50-meter long corridor, which is the transportation hub in the State Hall, connecting almost all the important rooms on the second floor.
Such a place is called a corridor elsewhere.
But it is called a gallery here, and it is also one of the attractions worth seeing.
Ye Kai stood under Rembrandt's paintings for a long time. What he didn't care about was whether the paintings were good-looking, but mainly because Ye Kai could faintly feel the thoughts in the paintings after seeing these paintings.
This feeling is inexplicable.
Because his painting ability is directly endowed by the system, although he has all the skills from the beginning of learning painting in his mind, some feelings cannot be directly conveyed.
"There should be many real works, right?"
He found a way to distinguish between good and bad works. Whenever he visits a painting, if he feels nothing in his heart... Maybe this painting is...
It can't be said to be fake.
Anyway, Ye Kai himself doesn't like it very much.
