Coal Hill - Jing Shan Park
|
|
The coal hill park lies right to the north of the Forbidden City.The hill is 44.6 metres high and its elevation being 88.7 metres. It used to be a private garden of the imperial family. When the Imperial Palace was built in the early Ming Dynasty, the earth excavated to make the moat was piled up, and five peaks took shape. Coal was once heaped around the foot of the hill, it is therefore also known as Coal Hill.
The last emperor of the Ming Dynasty , Chongzhen Emperor, committed suicide by hanging himself at Coil hill in 1644.
If you look down at Coal Hill Park by satellite, it is just like a buddha sit cross his`s legs.
