This documentary fails to say that Verbiest was an RCC Jesuit priest. There were actually several priests who came to Beijing during the Ming and early Qing dynasty. among the more notable was Fr. Matteo ricci who came to china during the Ming dynasty.
Great Documentary- I don't suppose you know what the name of the music at the beginning is called, I hear it a lot in documentaries but can never find the name.
I found the soundtrack on Spotify. Search for "The Great Within". There are 17 tracks. The first is entitled Sons of Heaven. Or search RUclips with The Great Within Pingxin Xu, Harry Gregson Williams. Hope this helps.
The whole prison aspect is somewhat overstated. Seasoned rulers like Kangxi and Qianlong went wherever they pleased. These emperors would leave the Forbidden City for months at a time. Decamping to the less formal Summer Palace or Mountain Resort (hunting lodge) in Chengde. They also went on pilgrimages and inspection tours to other parts of the empire.
Maybe. A eunuch may have either the testes only removed or the testes and penis. These may have been removed in childhood, in which many physiological changes would be affected. Or they may have been castrated as a punishment.
Can you handle the truth?? .....Read!!! “The Cambridge History of China Volume 7: The Ming Dynasty, 1368-1644, Part 1,” (p. 240-241): "The chief architect was an Annamese eunuch named An Nguyen, Juan An (d. 1453), who also played a major role in the rebuilding of Peking during the Cheng-t’ung reign.” Annamese was what the Chinese used to call Vietnamese.
It must have been great being emperor of china. All the rice you can eat and supreme ruler of all the rice patties and gay dudes in dresses. Plus you get to wear a cool hat and yellow dress!

Rod Steiger's narration is sublime.
The background music is beautiful.

And it's meaningless if you find it,cause it's nonsense in any kinds of Chinese classical music type,not famouse and not authentic but useless.

I adore traditional values beliefs as long your not hurting innocent people children or over stepping boundaries between theirs and yours.
God Save The Emperor!

quality of the video is so bad,
can you upload a better one?
The Emperor of Qing dynasty is not chinese, they are manchurian.
So what you are saying is manchurian are not Chinese ?
Qiu Chong yes they are not Han Chinese.
still its chinese. manchurian is a chinese tribe
34:06, Dashed to pieces on the shore? That's awful!
Чудесная документальная передача о Запрещенном городе и маньчжурских правителях Китая (династия Цин, 1611-1913).
The characters mess up the entire documentary.
Emperor Chien Lung was the emperor in the old Manchu Tradition
is castrated eunuch redundancy? if the person is an eunuch, he has to be castrated...
Maybe. A eunuch may have either the testes only removed or the testes and penis. These may have been removed in childhood, in which many physiological changes would be affected. Or they may have been castrated as a punishment.
come here bc of hw
