User:Madalibi/Tangse
Tangse is the Manchu name for a shamanic shrine or altar to the spirits.[1]
The tangse was destroyed in 1900 by foreign powers in the aftermath of the Boxer Uprising as part of reprisals for the two-month siege of the international Legation Quarter.[2] The shrine was rebuilt inside the palace in 1901 and its former site was used to build the Italian legation.[3] Historian Mark Elliott notes that in today's Beijing, the tangse would have been located on East Chang'an Avenue, "directly opposite the 'modern' wing of the Beijing Hotel."[4]
