The Hall of Grand Celebration is the largest hall in the Northern Song Imperial Palace (Kaifeng Prefecture). It's primarily used for major court assemblies and ceremonial events such as New Year's Day and the Winter Solstice, as well as imperial rituals and enthronement ceremonies. The Emperor's daily life is centered in the Funing Hall, books are stored in the Chongwen Academy, and foreign envoys are typically received in the Zichen Hall or Chuigong Hall.
