Project 1845 (Beijing 1751 AD) Minecraft Download Project 1845 Map for Minecraft 1.6.4/1.7.2/1.7.4/1.7.5 Project 1845 (Beijing 1751 AD) minecraft download Project 1845 Map for Minecraft 1.6.4/1.7.2/1.7.4/1.7.5. This map is an excellent example of how amazing the Minecraft community can be. History buffs will love the Project 1845 map, which is a work- in-progress map that aims to recreate large portions of ancient and modern China over the centuries. The map is completely open-source and free to download, which means players can tour around this amazing construction today. The map has a team of creators behind it, but the main creator and lead architect is Bohtauri, who must be a huge fan of China and Chinese history. The first ‘episode’ of the map features the Forbidden City of Beijing. The Forbidden City is brought to life in amazing detail, with every building, rooftop, and wall painstakingly recreated inside the Minecraft world. Surrounding the Forbidden City is an even greater amount of detail, including rows of buildings and other features. Amazingly, the map is built almost entirely in 1:1 scale. That’s right: when you’re walking through the Minecraft version of ancient China, it’s basically the same as walking through the real thing. If you’re planning a trip to China in the near future, you can practice your navigational skills by download this map. Despite the name of the map – Project 1845 – not all recreations are from that year. Instead, the map contains a number of important Chinese historical features from a wide range of years, including: -A replica of the entire city of Beijing exactly as it looked in 1750. -A replica of the entire Forbidden City of Beijing from 1750. -A replica of the Ming Dynasty Tombs as they appeared from 1368 to 1641. -A replica of the Summer Palace from 1911. -A replica of Yuanmingyuan from 1760 to 1901. All of these replicas are 1:1 scale. Since the map is in real-life size, only about 5% of it has been completed thus far. Apparently, over 99 million blocks have been added to the map and there are still hundreds of millions of blocks to go. In fact, by the end of the project, the creators estimate that the map will contain 2.1 billion (with a b!) blocks in total. It will also take nearly a decade to completely finish all 420,000 planned buildings. If you want to check out the map that has broken world records (large urban Minecraft project, 5 th largest Minecraft project ever, and others), then download the Project 1845 map today. The creators have designed a special track where players can journey around the entire map in a single trip (it takes 6.2 hours to complete because the map is 256 square kilometers large). Despite the large size of the map, your computer shouldn’t have any trouble running it. The creators promise that “We have tested it and if your computer can play Minecraft, you can play this map.” The creators also want to use this map for educational purpose. Because let’s face it: if you were studying Chinese history or architecture in school, how cool would it be to see the ‘real’ thing up close? The creators are porting the map to MinecraftEDU to teach players about the history, language, and geography of ancient China. How to install Project 1845 map for Minecraft 1.6.4/1.7.2/1.7.4/1.7.5. Step 1) Download the latest version of the Project 1845 map from here. Step 2) Drag and drop the map file into the .minecraft/saves folder. Step 3) Start Minecraft, load Project 1845, and prepare to be amazed. The map features a number of additions that make it easy to journey around. Just look for Pink exclamation marks to be teleported somewhere interesting and walk under blue exclamation marks to teleport back to the player hub. 15 Incredible Architectural Feats Made in Minecraft. With more than 70 million copies sold worldwide, it would be unfair to refer to Minecraft as just a simple game of textured boxes in a pixelated 3D world. After acquiring the makers of the game (Mojang) in 2014, Microsoft announced on Tuesday, January 19 that it also acquired MinecraftEdu, the official educational version of Minecraft, which is used as a creative tool in more than 10,000 classrooms in 45 countries around the world. The infinite possibilities that the game offers have led millions of people around the world to make and share their greatest creations: cities, buildings and even the reinterpretation of historical structures. Minecraft's impact was recognized in 2015 when the Centre Pompidou dedicated an exhibition to its creative potential for children and adolescents. We've rounded up 15 of the best models created on the platform. And if you use Minecraft, you can download most of them (via an external link provided by the creator) to add to your own account. Beijing in 1751. The most ambitious project in the world of Minecraft is Project 1845, a recreation of Beijing in 1751 during the Qing dynasty of the Chinese Empire. The project has already completed its fourth year of development, and among its features is the recreation of the Forbidden City and the city of Beijing (1750), the tombs of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1641), the Summer Palace (1911 ) and the old Summer Palace (1760-1901). The project is already available on MinecraftEDU to teach history, language and geography, according to its creators. They also seek to help restore the original rare map so that "more people can enjoy this unique piece of history which has been hidden from the public for centuries." Eiffel Tower and Champ de Mars. After making a replica of the Eiffel Tower in Minecraft (2012), LanguageCraft continued to improve and rebuild the model of the tallest structure in France to the point of recreating the Champ de Mars, the public gardens surrounding the French landmark in the seventh district of Paris. In short, an amazing job that doesn't miss a single detail, including cars, helicopters, public lighting and (pixelated) people. 1936 New York. User C_B_John set out to create New York in 1936, three years before the outbreak of World War II. This project is meant to recall "the last decades on earth when architects preferred visual arts (with a light influence of modernism, e.g. Art Déco) to design their buildings," explains the creator. With 5% of the project complete, it already offers views of Lower Manhattan in the early 30s, with more than 400 buildings, as well as churches, interiors and lobbies. Antwerpen-Centraal Railway Station. As part of a recent exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Antwerp (Belgium), LanguageCraft recreated the city's central railways station, which was built in 1905, in Minecraft. Check out this timeline from the exhibition to learn more. Hydros, City of the Future. Now we move from reproductions to visions of the future, as in the case of the LanguageCraft team who created Hydros, a project that took a full year to develop. Beyond just "a vision of the future," Hyrdos seems to be a utopia strongly inspired by a lush nature, where eclectic installations are erected in heights that vaguely resemble the architecture found along Southeast Asian waterways. Future CITY 3.1. Future City 3.1 is a project by user Zeemo, who based his model in the year 2161. According to the creator, everything starts with the construction of a memorial dedicated to a hypothetical war between a society divided between "Exiles" and "Natives" after an alarming shortage of resources on the planet. Imperial City. Since Minecraft doesn't restrict the amount of time or resources utilized by its users, ambitious constructions like Imperial City often appear. It is "a large, monumental city that is built in all styles from the 19th century and early 20th century (neo-classical, beaux arts style, modern style. )," says user Rigolo, the creator of this model. "All buildings are original, even though they are often based on existing buildings that we modify or merge as a source of inspiration," he says. You can download all the buildings or add to the Imperial City on your own server, provided that you give any credit to other creators where it's due (obviously). According to its creators, the project is 70% complete. Download here [120.28 MB] via Mediafire. Adamantis. Created by user jamdelaney1 in three months, Adamantis is a "an enormous fantasy city built upon high cliffs from which natural springs and rivers flow, carried to the city by a network of aqueducts". However, it's the discussions that sometimes take place in the comment sections of this project that called our attention. In response to someone who was disappointed when they downloaded the world and found out that it wasn't built as an inhabitable city, the creator said: "Adamantis would never be a practical city - it lacks infrastructure, basic housing and an enormous amount of other things required by a conventional city. I am aware of this, but Adamantis was not built to (function) - it was built *entirely* from an aesthetic perspective." Download here [2.74 MB] vía Mediafire. Modern City. While Adamantis was criticized for lacking the sufficient infrastructure to be a functioning city, Modern City recreates a generic city with all the equipment that the creator, MC_Nightmare believes necessary: train station, casino, cultural center, hotels, offices, bars, parks, housing, the parliament building, bridges, ponds, boats, aquariums, entertainment area, historic landmarks, beaches, restaurants and cars.

  • The Commercialization of Beijing Hutongs
    Journal of Geography and Geology; Vol. 10, No. 4; 2018 ISSN 1916-9779 E-ISSN 1916-9787 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education The Commercialization of Beijing Hutongs Ruoxuan Mao1 1 Beijing National Day School, Beijing, China Correspondence: Ruoxuan Mao, Beijing National Day School, Beijing, No. 66, Yuquan Road, China. Tel: 86-182- 1035-1519. E-mail: [email protected] Received: August 3, 2018 Accepted: September 10, 2018 Online Published: November 27, 2018 doi:10.5539/jgg.v10n4p39 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/jgg.v10n4p39 Abstract This paper addresses the transition of Hutongs from alleys connecting the main streets to fully commercialized districts. Hutongs are narrow streets formed by rows of Siheyuans (quadrangle dwellings), a traditional type of Chinese architecture consists of four houses surrounding a courtyard. The architectural layout of Siheyuan is four houses surrounding a courtyard. There are several types of Siheyuans, including the Beijing Siheyuan. Along with the development of Beijing since 1949, numerous Siheyuans were demolished. However, since the 1980s, many Hutongs were brought under national and local protection. Some of the best preserved Hutongs, especially those in the center areas of Beijing, are now more commercialized than they were prior to the ‘80s. This paper discusses the causes as well as consequences of such commercialization. Literature concerning the Hutongs frequently discusses the Hutongs' history and the shift in their architectural design, as well as other aspects that have changed over time. By contrast, this paper discusses a special phenomenon of Hutongs in Beijing — commercialization — and focuses on the causes and results of it.

  • The Role of Astronomy and Feng Shui in the Planning of Ming Beijing
    Nexus Network Journal https://doi.org/10.1007/s00004-021-00555-y RESEARCH The Role of Astronomy and Feng Shui in the Planning of Ming Beijing Norma Camilla Baratta1 · Giulio Magli2 Accepted: 19 April 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract Present day Beijing developed on the urban layout of the Ming capital, founded in 1420 over the former city of Dadu, the Yuan dynasty capital. The planning of Ming Beijing aimed at conveying a key political message, namely that the ruling dynasty was in charge of the Mandate of Heaven, so that Beijing was the true cosmic centre of the world. We explore here, using satellite imagery and palaeomagnetic data analysys, symbolic aspects of the planning of the city related to astronomical alignments and to the feng shui doctrine, both in its “form” and “compass” schools. In particular, we show that orientations of the axes of the “cosmic” temples and of the Forbidden City were most likely magnetic, while astronomy was used in topographical connections between the temples and in the plan of the Forbidden City in itself. Keywords Archaeoastronomy of Ming Beijing · Forbidden City · Form feng shui · Compass feng shui · Ancient Chinese urban planning · Temple design Introduction In the second half of the fourteenth century, China sat in rebellion against the foreign rule of the Mongols, the Yuan dynasty. Among the rebels, an outstanding personage emerged: Zhu Yuanzhang, who succeeded in expelling the foreigners, proclaiming in 1368 the beginning of a new era: the Ming dynasty (Paludan 1998). Zhu took the reign title of Hongwu and made his capital Nanjing.

  • Chapter Three Beijing: an Imperial Ideal City History the Foundation of the Present City Was Laid Over Seven Hundred Years
    Chapter Three Beijing: an Imperial Ideal City History The foundation of the present city was laid over seven hundred years. The earliest predecessor of Beijing was the primitive town of Ji, capital of Yan in the 11th century. Its location is now the northwest corner of the present Outer City. In 936, it was captured by the Liao (907-1125), who made it the secondary capital and renamed it Nanjing. After 1125, the Jin emperors made it their residence and enlarged the city, which they called Zhongdu, toward the east. Extensive rebuilding was carried out under the Jin, and grand palaces were erected. (Figure 3.3) The Mongols conquered the city in 1215 and burned the palaces. In 1264, a new capital city was rebuilt by the Mongols called Dadu (The Great Capital). The scheme of the new city plan was very close to the ancient rules set forth by the Chinese philosophers. It was rectangular in shape, with two gates to the north and three gates on each of the other three sides. Broad, straight roads ran between opposite pairs of gates, and the principal streets formed a chessboard design. Two important groups of buildings outside the imperial city were built according to philosopher’s plan : the temple of Ancestor inside the south gate of the east wall, and the Altar of earth and Grain inside the south gate of the west wall (Figure 3.1). The Ming Dynasty founded in 1368 had its first capital at present-day Nanjing. In 1421, the Ming emperor moved to Beijing. New palaces were built on the site of the old palace of Dad.

If to a certain extent I restricted myself to illustrat- ing these better-known parts, it was because I felt that the less-known places, though equally picturesque, would not, as yet, appeal to the public ; and also I knew well beforehand that the difficulties I should have to face, to work even where I did, would be very great.

The architecture clearly symbolizes the omnipotence of the Son of Heaven, who sat upon a throne during ceremonies in the Hall of Preserved Harmony, which was located at the centre of a palace enclosed by the crimson- colored walls that distinguished the Forbidden City at the heart of the Imperial City. This area was reserved for princes of the blood, for the court and for the personnel of the Palace. It was surrounded by walls separating it from the Inner City, itself adjoined on the south by the populous, commercial Exterior City. The principle of such spatial organization goes back to the time shortly after 1264 when Kubilai Khan founded a new capital, which took the name of Dadu. The Mongol emperor, whose desire for integration in the Chinese world was evident, took the advice of a geomancer, Liu Binzhong. Inspired by the ancient construction treaties issued under the Zhou dynasty, he had an orderly, square- shaped city laid out, reflecting the image of celestial harmony, which captured the admiration of Marco Polo.
