中，首先是对时间、空间的一种描述和界定，进而成为中国古代知识体系和价值体 系里的一个核心观念和标准。在具体实践中，符合中的事物、行为等大多被赋予了 尊贵、美好、善良、和合等价值诉求和象征意义。 我国古代都城在选址与规划营建中，将对中的追求发挥到了极致，提出择天 下之中而立国，择国之中而立宫，即在疆域的中心位置定都，在都城的中心位置营建 王宫。为进一步强化这种中的布局的神圣威严与对称和谐，必须要在中之上及 周围规划有相应功能与内涵的建筑和空间。这事实上就形成了一条贯通都城核心区域、 统领都城空间布局和凸显王权尊贵，并具有对称与韵律之美的都城中轴线。《周礼·考 工记》（以下简称《考工记》）将这种理想的都城规划格局概括为匠人营国，方九里， 旁三门。国中九经九纬，经涂九轨，左祖右社，面朝后市，市朝一夫，涵盖了都城规 模、城门布局、道路规划及太庙、社稷坛、宫殿、市廛等的位置、面积等内容。在这样 的格局下，中轴线的构成、功能与象征意义无疑得到了最大程度的强调。 001在历代都城轴线中，北京中轴线是最接近《考工记》中所描述的理想都城中轴线的 范式，堪称中国理想都城秩序的杰作，也是梁思成先生眼中的世界上就没有第二个 的奇迹。 习近平总书记在北京考察时指出：北京历史文化是中华文明源远流长的伟大见证， 要更加精心保护好，凸显北京历史文化的整体价值，强化首都风范、古都风韵、时代 风貌的城市特色。而北京中轴线正是积淀厚重的北京历史文化中的杰出范例，是代 表这座城市乃至中华文明的金名片。要探寻这一皇皇巨制，了解古人的匠心藻思， 加入今天的传承保护，不妨从探访中轴线遗产点上的若干古建筑、文物、展览开始。这 些展览从相应遗产点在中轴线上的功能和定位出发，诠释相应的历史文化内涵，生动、 直观而接地气，各美其美、美美与共，构成了以北京中轴线为主题的展览体系，呈 现出一幅北京中轴线文化传播的多彩拼图，也是发挥历史博物展览见证历史、以史鉴 今、启迪后人等功用的绝好例证。 2024 年 7 月 27 日，在印度新德里举行的联合国教科文组织第 46 届世界遗产大会通 过决议，将北京中轴线中国理想都城秩序的杰作列入《世界遗产名录》，标志 着历经十二载，北京中轴线申遗成功，成为中国最具代表性的文化瑰宝之一。 002003 Preface Zhong, initially a description of measurement used in time and space, now has become a core concept and standard in the ancient Chinese knowledge system and value system. In practical terms, things and behavior that conform to Zhong are endowed with values and symbolic meanings such as nobility, goodness, kindness, and harmony. In the process of siting and planning ancient Chinese capital cities, the pursuit of Zhong was taken to the extreme. It was proposed to choose the center of the world to establish a state, and choose the center of the state to establish a palace. This means selecting the central location within the territory as the capital and constructing the royal palace at the center of the capital. In order to further strengthen the sacredness, symmetry, and harmony of this Zhong layout, it was necessary to plan corresponding buildings and spaces based on the concept of Zhong. This, in fact, gave birth to a central axis that connected the core area of the capital, guided the spatial layout of the capital, and highlighted the dignity of the monarchy with symmetric beauty. Artiffcers Record summarized this ideal urban planning pattern as follows: Craftsmen build the capital in the shape of a square with the side length of nine li, with three gates on each side. Within the capital, there are nine northsouth roads and nine east-west avenues, each of which can accommodate nine carriages running in parallel. To the left is the ancestral temple, and to the right is the altar of land and grain. In front of the palace is the place where courtiers pay homage, and behind it is the market. The market and the place of homage are each a square with sides of one hundred steps. It covers the scale of the capital, the layout of the city gates, road planning, as well as the positions and areas of the imperial ancestral temple, the altar of land and grain, the palace, and the market. In this urban planning pattern, there is no doubt that the construction, function, and symbolic meaning of the central axis are given the utmost emphasis. Among the axial lines of ancient capitals throughout history, Beijing Central Axis is the closest paradigm to the ideal axial line described in the book Artiffcers Record. Beijing Central Axis can be regarded as a masterpiece of the ideal urban planning in China and was considered by Liang Sicheng as a unique miracle in the world that has no equal. President Xi Jinping pointed out during his inspection in Beijing that, Beijings rich historical and cultural heritage is a great witness to the long-standing Chinese civilization. We must protect it with greater care, highlight the overall value of Beijings historical and cultural heritage, and strengthen the citys characteristics as the capital, an ancient city and a city which reffects the spirit of the times. The Beijing Central Axis is an outstanding example of the profound historical and cultural heritage of Beijing. It is a golden business card, representing not only the city itself but also the Chinese civilization as a whole. To explore this grand project, understand the ingenuity of ancient craftsmen, and contribute to its preservation in modern times, one can start by going to the historic buildings, cultural relics, and exhibitions at various heritage sites along the central axis. These exhibitions are based on the functions and positioning of corresponding heritage sites along the central axis, interpreting their historical and cultural connotations in a vivid, intuitive, and 004down-to-earth manner. Each of these exhibitions presents the beauty of their respective subjects while sharing a common beauty, forming an exhibition system centered around Beijing Central Axis. They present a colorful mosaic of cultural dissemination along the central axis and serve as excellent examples of historical museum exhibitions that fulffll functions such as witnessing history, drawing lessons from the past, and enlightening future generations. On July 27, 2024, the UNESCO World Heritage Committee, at its 46th session held in New Delhi, India, adopted a decision to inscribeBeijing Central Axis: A Building Ensemble Exhibiting the Ideal Order of the Chinese Capitalon the World Heritage List. This marks the successful inscription of Beijing Central Axis after twelve years of dedicated nomination efforts, establishing it as one of Chinas most representative cultural treasures.
