湖北武当山及其太和宫空间总体划分疑论

A Scepsis of the Overall Space Planning of Taihe Palace in Wudang Mountain of Hubei Province

通过综合分析,认为明代湖北武当山太和宫所属的总体空间,可划分为天国、天城、天宫三大区域;其中"一天门"以上,为"天国"范围;朝圣门以内,为"天城"范围;紫金城以内,为太和宫的"天宫"范围;紫金城南天门外至山门之间对称的封闭空间,为"天宫"的前导空间范围。

Through the comprehensive analysis, this paper considered that, the overall space of Taihe Palace of Ming Dynasty in Wudang Mountain of Hubei province, could be divided as three regions： heaven, heaven city, heaven palace; and considered that, the region behind the First Heaven Gate could be considered as heaven; behind the Pilgrimage Gate, as heaven city; Zijin City, as heaven palace; the space right before the South Gate of Zijin City, as the leading space in front of Zijin City.
