苏州古运河英文经典3篇

"The rising sun in the East, the cold wind, the soft spring breeze, the newtown.". Shiyan, a city that has experienced the baptism of cold wind andrainstorm, a green pine standing on the peak of the world, is a shining star inmy heart forever, whether it is Xianshan or Xiushui!

Shiyan, my hometown, is the most beautiful place I have ever seen. Althoughthe landscape here is not listed by the famous mountains and the beautiful waterin Guilin, it has its own unique charm. Wudang Mountain, the first mountain inShiyan, is not only the holy land of Taoism, but also an exquisite landscapepainting. Wudang Mountain stands in Shiyan, and the peak is above the clouds.Wudang gate is surrounded by clouds. From a distance, it looks like a temple ina fairyland. In the drizzle hazy weather, Wudangs looming, but also adds atrace of mystery.

When I enter Wudang Mountain, I feel fresh and fresh. Whenever I smell thisfragrance, I feel a sense of peace that I cant say. But in the mountains andforests, there are all kinds of animals talking and streams singing. I dontknow what it is, but I know its a special language between them. If you godeeper into the mountains, you will have another feeling. Looking at the greenpines and trees in front of us, listening to the dingdong of mountain springs,we can feel the vitality of nature. There will always be a sigh. If the feelingahead is spring, then the feeling this time is summer, which is stronger anddeeper.

After leaving Wudang Mountain, there is another famous scenery - HanjiangRiver. No matter the surface of the Hanjiang River is flat or quiet, it is notas extreme as the water in Guilin, but it is clear and mysterious. Standing onthe edge of the Han River, looking at another self in the river, there willalways be some experience. If you take a closer look at yourself, maybe you canread the secret hidden in your heart from your own eyes.

Along the Hanjiang River, I come to a wave of Bitan. I look at the calmBitan, but I always feel that there is something swimming under the still water.From time to time, a few bubbles come out of the water, or a few circles ofmicrowaves are dispersing. At this time, gently hit the water with stones, therewill be dozens or hundreds of flying fish jumping on the water, the scene isvery magnificent. But just a few minutes later, the water returned to itsoriginal state, as if nothing had happened.

This is Shiyan, my hometown. Shiyan is nurturing every child who loves himwith its mountains and rivers, and we should also repay the land of ourhometown.

Suzhou Garde

Ladies, gentlemen, Welcome to the" land of fish and rice" - - Suzhou.Suzhou ,one of the Chinese"Cities of gardens"tops all others in both number and artistry of gardens.Starting from Pijiang Garden of the Eastern Jin Dynasty,Suzhous art of gardening has undergone a history of1500 years.The concept of Suzhou classical gardens has gone beyond the city the regions of the Yangtze.

The four classical gardens of Suzhou are The Surging Waves Pavilion.The Lion Grove Garden Garden .The Humble AdministratorGarden.The Lingering Garden.In a nutshell ,represent the different architectural styles of Song.Yuan.Ming.Qing dynasties.

My friends, now we are in The Lingering Garden. It is located in Liuyuan Road, Suzhou City. It was built by Xutaishi in Ming Dynasty. At that time it was named Eastern Garden.

There are three treasures in The Lingering Garden. The first treasure are Stones.The stone in front of us is the most distinguishing stone "Guangyun Peak". With a weight of 5 tons and a height of 6.5 meters, it is one of the four Wonderful Stones in the regions of the Yangtze.

The calligrapher and painter Mifu in Song Dynasty sum up the features of Lake Tai stones as the following: slender ,wrinkling , leaking , penetrating. Just take the "guangyun Peak" as an example and you will have some idea about the features of the stones. In addition, it is endowed with the personal characters of faithfulness because of its nature of stiffness and unchangeable outlook. Thus it has been worshipped by people since old time.

The second treasure is "Five peak fairy Hall" "Five peaks fairy hall" gets the reputation of "The first hall in the regions of Yangtze" . The name comes from the lines of the great poet Libai. The four Chinese characters on the plaque were written by Wuda---the famous calligrapher. Nanmu Hall used to be the place for important banquets and ceremonies, such as birthday parties, weddings , funerals .

The hall is divided into two sections__the south section and the north section. The south section host male guests, while the south section host female guests.

The hall is elegantly designed with oversized windows on east and west sides . Through the windows, the outside sceneries of the two courtyards can be extended as parts of the hall, thus to ensure enough lights into the building.

Five peaks fairy hall was built out of luxury materials. Beams and pillars are all Nanmu, which is a kind of timber only produced in China. That is also the reason why "five peaks fairy hall" is also commonly called "Nanmu Hall".

The "Fossil Fish" we are enjoying is the third treasure of Lingering Garden. It is a natural marble picture. In the middle of the picture are the clutters of mountains which are Partly hidden and partly visible; below are flowing Streams,above are floating clouds; right on the middle top is a round white spot like a sun or a moon.It is a picture drawn by the nature. The marble stone has a diameter of 1 meter or so and a thickness of 15 mms . It was produced in Diancang Mountain, YunNan province. It is a wonder how such big a stone was delivered in a good condition from YunNan which is over one thousand mile away from Suzhou.

China is most famous for its elegant classical gardens.

Among these, the lingering Garden is one representative. If you would like to know more about Chinese culture, we welcome you to visit Suzhou again.
