Beyond the Meridian Gate is a large courtyard (the place is arranged as a series of gates, courtyards, and raised pavilions as one walks north through it), through which the Golden River runs in a bow-shaped arc. The river is crossed by five parallel white marble bridges, which lead to the Gate of Supreme Harmony. |
