关于莫高窟的英文导游词（热门20篇）

拙政园始建于明代，王献臣是该园第一位主人。他在嘉靖、正德年间官居监察御史，晚年仕途不得意，罢官而归，买地造园，借《闲居赋》“拙者之为政”句意，取名为拙政园。园内主要景点有：兰雪堂、芙蓉榭、秫香馆、放眼亭、远香堂、小沧浪、留亭阁、浮翠阁等。

全园分东、中、西、住宅四部份。住宅是典型的苏州民居，现布置为园林博物馆展厅。东部明快开朗，以平冈远山、松林草坪、竹坞曲水为主。主要景点有：兰雪堂、缀云峰、芙蓉榭、天泉亭、秫香馆等。中部为拙政园精华所在，池水面积占1/3，以水为主，池广树茂，景色自然，临水布置了形体不一、高低错落的建筑，主次分明。主要景点有：远香堂、香洲、荷风四面亭、见山楼、小飞虹、枇杷园等。西部主体建筑为靠近住宅一侧的卅六鸳鸯馆，水池呈曲尺形，其特点为台馆分峙、回廊起伏，水波倒影，别有情趣，装饰华丽精美。主要景点有：卅六鸳鸯馆、倒影楼、与谁同坐轩、水廊等。

东园介绍

兰雪堂：是东部的主要厅堂，堂名取意于李白“独立天地间，清风洒兰雪”的诗句。始建于明崇祯八年(1635)，据园主王心一《归园田居》记载，兰雪堂为五楹草堂，“东西桂树为屏，其后则有山如幅，纵横皆种梅花。梅之外有竹，竹临僧舍，旦暮梵声，时从竹中来”，环境幽僻。堂前两棵白皮松苍劲古拙，墙边修竹苍翠欲滴，湖石玲珑，绿草夹径，东西院墙相连。堂坐北朝南三开间，“兰雪堂”匾额高挂 ，长窗落地，堂正中有屏门相隔，屏门南面为一幅漆雕《拙政园全景图》，屏门北面为《翠竹图》，全部采用苏州传统的漆雕工艺，屏门两边的隔扇裙板上刻有人物山水。

缀云峰：兰雪堂北，山峰高耸在绿树竹荫中，山西北双峰并立，取名“联璧”。缀云峰、联壁峰为归园田居的园中景点。王心一《归园田居记》，兰雪堂前有池，“池南有峰特起，云缀树杪，名之曰缀云峰。池左两峰并峙，如掌如帆，谓之联壁峰。”两峰为明末叠石名家陈似云作品，所用湖石，玲珑细润，以元末赵松雪山水画为范本。缀云峰的形态自下而上逐渐状大，其巅尤伟，如云状，岿然独立，旁无支撑。1943年夏夜，缀云峰突然倾圮。后来，在园林专家汪星伯的指导下，重新堆成了这座高达两丈、玲珑夭矫的奇峰，如今此峰苔藓斑驳，藤蔓纷披，不乏古意。

芙蓉榭：榭是我国古代一种很美的建筑形式，凭借周围风景而构成，形式灵活多变。芙蓉榭屋顶为卷棚歇山顶，四角飞翘，一半建在岸上，一半伸向水面，灵空架于水波上，伫立水边、秀美倩巧。此榭面临广池，池水清清，是夏日赏荷的好地方。漫步芙蓉榭，凭栏四顾，可见满池青翠，粉黛出水，风流丽质似亭亭玉立的仙子在碧波中美目流盼，微风骤起，掀起一片绿浪，送来阵阵荷香，……尽情领略荷花的娇美、幽雅和高洁的风骨。

天泉亭：是一座重檐八角亭，出檐高挑，外部形成回廊，庄重质朴，围柱间有坐槛，可以坐歇欣赏。四周草坪环绕，花木扶疏。亭北平岗小坡，林木葱郁。亭子之所以取“天泉”这个名字，是因为它的下面有一口井，此井终年不涸，水质甘甜，因而被称为“天泉”。据《乾隆长洲县志》记载，元朝大德年间，这一带有一座寺庙叫大宏寺。又过了百来年，馀泽和尚居住在这里，并建了一所“东斋”。斋前有井，称“天泉”。苏州是个水乡泽国，河多、桥多、井也多，但被载入史册的则不多见。王心一建“归园田居”时，保留了这井，也使园中平添几许田园风光。

秫香馆：秫香，指稻谷飘香，以前墙外皆为农田，丰收季节，秋风送来一阵阵稻谷的清香，令人心醉，馆亦因此得名。秫香馆为东部的主体建筑，面水隔山，为单檐歇山结构，室内宽敞明亮，长窗裙板上的黄杨木雕，共有 48幅，缘据行家考证，一部为《西厢记》,另一部为《金玉如意》。其中《西厢记》一出中，有“张生跳墙会鸳鸯”、“拷红”、“长亭送别”等场景，雕镂精细，层次丰富，栩栩如生。夕阳西下，一抹余辉洒落在秫香馆的落地长窗上。加上精致的裙板木雕，把秫香馆装点得古朴雅致，别有情趣。

涵青亭：园林建筑，以亭的变化为多。亭是一种只有屋顶而没有墙的小屋，玲珑轻巧，一般由屋顶、柱身和台基三部分组成。在园林中可点景、观景，又可供人小憩、纳凉、避雨。拙政园不仅亭多，而且形式不一。涵青亭居于一隅，空间范围比较逼仄。但造园家以高大的白墙作底，建了一座组合式的半亭，一主二从，主亭平座挑出于水面之上，犹如水榭，两侧副亭略向后退，朝左右展开，似廊又非廊，主亭发两只戗，副亭发一只戗，整座亭子犹如一只展翅欲飞的凤凰，给本来平直、单调的墙体增添了飞舞的动势。斜倚亭边美人靠小坐，天光云影水间，锦鲤遨游，荷莲轻荡。

中园介绍

倚虹亭：在复廊西面的直廊上，坐东朝西，身后长廊迤逦，面前水木旷远，是进入中花园后一个极好的观赏点。亭右是梧竹幽居，亭前有一座青石小桥，名“倚虹桥”，桥栏、石质都体现了明代风格，似是明代拙政园的遗物。站在亭内，中间开阔的池水，曲桥分割水面。盛夏，满池的荷花红裳翠盖，一片江南风情。绿荫深处，隐约可见一座秀美、玲珑的宝塔，这是运用借景的手法，将园外千余米之遥的北寺塔借入园中。是“借景”中“远借”的佳例。

梧竹幽居：建筑风格独特，构思巧妙别致的梧竹幽居是一座方亭，为中部池东的观赏主景。此亭外围为廊，红柱白墙，飞檐翘角，背靠长廊，面对广池，旁有梧桐遮荫、翠竹生情。亭的绝妙之处还在于四周白墙开了四个圆形洞门，洞环洞，洞套洞，在不同的角度可看到重叠交错的分圈、套圈、连圈的奇特景观。四个圆洞门既通透、采光、雅致，又形成了四幅花窗掩映、小桥流水、湖光山色、梧竹清韵的美丽框景画面，意味隽永。“梧竹幽居”匾额为文徵明体。“爽借清风明借月，动观流水静观山”对联为清末名书家赵之谦撰书，上联连用二个借字，点出了人类与风月、与自然和谐相处的亲密之情;下联则用一动一静，一虚一实相互衬托、对比，相映成趣。

雪香云蔚亭：雪香，指梅花。云蔚，指花木繁盛。此亭适宜早春赏梅，亭旁植梅，暗香浮动。周围竹丛青翠，林木葱郁，绕溪盘行，颇有城市山林的趣味。亭为长方形，在池中西部土山上，外观质朴而轻快，亭内匾额“山花野鸟之间”为当代书画家钱君陶所书。

嘉实亭：园内种植许多枇杷树，枇杷秋天孕蕾，冬天开花，春天结果，夏天成熟，蕴含四季之气，结成累累金丸。嘉实亭，既有对江南名园的赞扬，又寓意收获的喜庆。亭墙正中开有方形窗洞，窗洞外一侧是太湖石，石旁冬有腊梅，夏有芭蕉，组成一幅天然的立体图画。通过枇杷园洞门，嘉实亭与雪香云蔚亭形成一组对景，这是造园的艺术手法之一。

听雨轩

在嘉实亭之东，与周围建筑用曲廊相接。轩前一泓清水，植有荷花;池边有芭蕉、翠竹，轩后也种植一丛芭蕉，前后相映。五代时南唐诗人李中有诗曰：“听雨入秋竹，留僧覆旧棋”;宋代诗人杨万里《秋雨叹》诗曰：“蕉叶半黄荷叶碧，两家秋雨一家声”;现代苏州园艺家周瘦鹃《芭蕉》诗曰：“芭蕉叶上潇潇雨，梦里犹闻碎玉声。”这里芭蕉、翠竹、荷叶都有，无论春夏秋冬，只要是雨夜，由于雨落在不同的植物上，加上听雨人的心态各异，自能听到各具情趣的雨声，境界绝妙，别有韵味。

海棠春坞：倚虹长廊蜿蜒，玲珑馆东侧花墙分隔的独立小院是海棠春坞。造型别致的书卷式砖额，嵌于院之南墙。院内海棠数株，初春时分万花似锦，娇羞如小家碧玉秀姿艳质，有超群绝类之美。文人墨客为之动情讴歌。庭院铺地用青红白三色鹅卵石镶嵌而成海棠花纹。院内茶几装饰图案均为海棠纹样。处处有景点题，庭院虽小，清静幽雅，是读书休憩的理想之所。

远香堂：远香堂为四面厅，是拙政园中部的主体建筑，在原明正德若墅堂的旧址上，为清乾隆时所建，青石屋基是当时的原物。它面水而筑，单檐歇山顶，面阔三间。堂北平台宽敞，池水旷朗清澈。荷池宽阔，红裳翠盖，清香宜人。堂名取周敦颐《爱莲说》中“香远益清”的名句，水中遍植荷花，因荷得名。夏日池中荷叶田田，荷风扑面，清香远送，是赏荷的佳处。园主借花自喻，表达了园主高尚的情操。堂内装饰透明玲珑的玻璃落地长窗，规格整齐，由于长窗透空，四周各具情趣的景物，山光水影，尽收眼底，犹如观赏山水长卷。室内陈设典雅精致。

小飞虹：苏州是水乡，拙政园是水园，有水必有桥。拙政园里有石板桥、石拱桥等，小飞虹的型制很特别。是苏州园林中唯一的廊桥。取南北朝宋代鲍昭《白云》诗“飞虹眺秦河，泛雾弄轻弦而命名”。朱红色桥栏倒映水中，水波粼粼，宛若飞虹，故以为名。虹，是雨过天晴后横跨大地的一架绚丽的彩桥，古人以虹喻桥，用意绝妙。它不仅是连接水面和陆地的通道，而且构成了以桥为中心的独特景观。小飞虹桥体为三跨石梁，微微拱起，呈八字型。桥面两侧设有万字护栏，三间八柱，覆盖廊屋，檐枋下饰以倒挂楣子，桥两端与曲廊相连，是一座精美的廊桥。

小沧浪：小沧浪取北宋?苏舜钦“沧浪亭”名为阁名，寓意遁世归隐。小阁面阔三间，南窗北槛，两面临水，外形十分别致，似房非房，似船非船，似桥非桥，完全是架在水面上的一座水阁。水阁横跨池上，将水面再度划分，把到此结束的中园水尾营造得貌似绵延不断，艺术手法高超。亭廊围绕，构成开敞的幽静水院。从前苏州古城文人雅士、官宦人家众多，无论是华屋巨宅还是一般住房，都特别注意小空间的修饰，这小空间就是庭院，而水庭院则是这绝无仅有的小沧浪，一方面，它体现了江南水乡风情，另一方面，因水造景，院落内外互相借景而构建了一个特别清凉的环境。

松风水阁：松、竹、梅在中国传统文化中被称作“岁寒三友”，在文人写意园中，尤爱栽种这类用以“比德”的植物，来表达主人的思想感情。松树经寒不凋，四季常青，古人将之喻作有高尚的道德情操者。松之苍劲古拙的姿态常被画入图中，是中国园林的主要树种之一。松风水阁又名“听松风处”，是看松听涛之处。这座水阁攒尖方顶，空间封闭，由廊间小门出入，其余三面采用半墙加半窗的结构。屋顶出檐特大，飞檐起翘尤高，表现出翩翩欲飞、飘逸轻灵的风采，整座建筑不是采用规整的正南正北方向，而是斜过45度角,凌空架于水上,可避阳通风,最适宜于夏天观景。亭侧植有黑松数株，有风拂过，松枝遥动，松涛作响，色声皆备，是别有风味的一处景观。

香洲：香洲为“舫”式结构，有两层舱楼，通体高雅而洒脱，其身姿倒映水中，更显得纤丽而雅洁。香洲寄托了文人的理想与情操。香洲，用的是屈原笔下“芳洲”的典故，《楚辞》中有“采芳洲兮杜若，将以遗兮下女”的句子。古时常以香草来比喻清高之士，此处以荷花景观来喻意香草，也很得体。在中国古典园林众多的石舫中，拙政园香洲大概称得上是造型最为美观的一个。船头是台，前舱是亭，中舱为榭，船尾是阁，阁上起楼，线条柔和起伏，比例大小得当，使人想起古时苏州、杭州、扬州一带山温水软、画舫如云的景象。香洲位于水边，正当东、西水流和南北向河道的交汇处，三面环水，一面依岸，由三块石条所组成的跳板登“船”，站在船头，波起涟漪，四周开敞明亮，满园秀色，令人心爽。烈日酷暑，此地却荷风阵阵，举目清凉。香洲船头上悬有文徵明写的题额，后人还专门为之题跋。香洲这条旱船，建筑手法典雅精巧，引人入胜，使人感到一种对高洁人格的追寻。

荷风四面亭：亭名因荷而得，座落在园中部池中小岛，四面皆水，湖内莲花亭亭净植，湖岸柳枝丝丝婆娑，亭单檐六角，四面通透，亭中有抱柱联：“四面荷花三面柳，半潭秋水一房山。”用在此处十分贴切。尤其是联中的“壁”字用得好，亭子是最为开敞的建筑物，柱间无墙，所以视线不受遮挡，倍感空透明亮，虽然无壁，然而三面河岸垂柳茂盛无间，四周芙蓉偎依簇拥，不是密密匝匝地围成了一道绿色的香柔之墙吗?动人的夸张和丰富的想象，使这座岛上的小亭愈发显得多姿多彩，亭亭可人。风吹墙动，绿浪翻滚，清香四溢，色、香、形俱佳。春柳轻，夏荷艳，秋水明，冬山静，荷风四面亭不仅最宜夏暑，而且四季皆宜。若从高处俯瞰荷风四面亭，但见亭出水面，飞檐出挑，红柱挺拔，基座玉白，分明是满塘荷花怀抱着的一颗光灿灿的明珠。

见山楼：见山楼三面环水，两侧傍山，从西部可通过平坦的廊桥进入底层，而上楼则要经过爬山廊或假山石级。它是一座江南风格的民居式楼房，重檐卷棚，歇山顶，坡度平缓，粉墙黛瓦，色彩淡雅，楼上的明瓦窗，保持了古朴之风。底层被称作“藕香榭”，沿水的外廊设吴王靠，小憩时凭靠可近观游鱼，中赏荷花，远则园内诸景如画一般地在眼前缓缓展开。上层为见山楼，陶渊明有名句曰：“采菊东篱下，悠然见南山。”此楼高敞，可将中园美景尽收眼底。春季满园新翠，姹紫嫣红;夏日薰风徐来，荷香阵阵;秋天池畔芦荻迎风，寒意萧瑟;冬时满屋暖阳，雪景宜人。原先，苏州城中没有高楼大厦，登此楼望远，可尽览郊外山色。相传此楼清咸丰年间太平天国忠王李秀成的办公之所。见山楼高而不危，耸而平稳，与周围的景物构成均衡的图画。

玉兰堂：玉兰堂，是一处独立闭的幽静庭院，它处在拙政园主人居住区与花园的交界部位，是园主会见宾客与处理日常事务的主要场所，玉兰堂高大宽敞，院落小巧精致。南墙高耸，好似画纸，墙上藤草作画，墙下筑有花坛，植天竺和竹丛，配湖石数峰，玉兰和桂花，色、香宜人。玉兰堂曾名“笔花堂”，与文徵明故居中的“笔花堂”同名。这显示了当初园主王献臣与文徵明之间不同一般的亲密关系;再则，“梦笔生花”也是古时文人对创作灵感的一种追寻。在此读书作画，实是人生的莫大享受。

西园介绍

宜两亭：在别有洞天靠左，叠有假山一座。沿假山上石径，有一座六角形的亭子位于山顶，这就是“宜两亭”。它踞于中园和西园分界的云墙边，亭基较高，六面置窗，窗格为梅花图案。登上宜两亭，可以俯瞰中部的山光水色。从中花园观景，从层层递进的景色展开后，宜两亭突出于廊脊之上，使整个中花园的景色变得绵延不尽，形成非常深远的景观空间，这是造园技巧上“邻借”的典型范例。“宜两”出自一个有趣的故事。唐代白居易曾与元宗简结邻而居，院落中有高大的柳树探出围墙，可为两家共赏。白居易写诗赞美道：“明月好同三径夜，绿杨宜作两家春”，以此来比喻邻里间的和睦相处。当年，拙政园的中园和西园分属两家所有，西园主人不建高楼，而改为堆山筑亭。西家可以在亭中观赏到他十分羡慕的中园景色，而中园主人在中花园亦可眺望亭阁高耸的一番情趣，借亭入景，丰富景观，岂不妙哉!一亭宜两家，添景更添情，就这样，一句好诗，一段佳话，造就了一个妙亭，一道风景。

波形廊：在西花园与中花园交界处的一道水廊，是别处少见的佳构。从平面上看，水廊呈“L”形环池布局，分成两 段，临水而筑，南段从别有洞天入口，到卅六鸳鸯馆止;北段止于倒影楼，悬空于水上。这里原来是一堵 分隔中、西园的水墙，作为两园之间的分界横在那里，如何规划成景颇费踌躇。聪明的工匠借墙为廊，凌水而建，以一种绝处求生的高妙造园手法来打破这墙僵直、沉闷的局面，将廊的下部架空，犹如栈道一般，依水势作成高低起伏、弯转曲折状，使 景观空间富于弹性，具有韵律美和节奏美。由南往北，经过一系列形态变化之后，突然出现大幅度转折，把它拉离园墙一段距离，使之突出于水池之上，低贴水面，左右凌空，廊顶变化如亭盖，临水处立小石栏柱两根，犹如钓台一般，在波形廊靠近倒影楼的近终点处，在其下部设一孔水洞，让廊跨越而过，使园的中、西部水系相通，廊体也拔高至最高点。若远看水廊，便似长虹卧波，气势不凡。

卅六鸳鸯馆：是西花园的主体建筑，精美华丽，南部叫“十八曼陀罗花馆”，北部叫“卅六鸳鸯馆”。一座建筑同时有两个名字，这是古建筑中的一种鸳鸯厅形式，以屏风、罩、纱槅将一座大厅分为两部，梁架一面用扁料, 一面用圆料，似两进厅堂合并而成，其作用是南半部宜于冬、春，北半部宜于夏、秋。鸳鸯厅面阔三间，外观为硬山顶，平面呈方形，四隅均建有四角攒尖的精巧耳房，又叫暖阁。北半部挑出于水面，由8根石柱撑住馆体架于池上。馆之中央的银杏木雕玻璃屏将大厅一隔为二。北厅(后厅)临清池，夏、秋时推窗可见荷池中芙蕖浮动，鸳鸯戏水，东汉时大将军霍光“(在)园中凿大池，植五色睡莲，养鸳鸯卅六对，望之灿若披锦”，馆名取其意，匾额为清同治年间苏州状元洪钧题写。苏州自古出人才，明清时期状元人数居全国前列，洪钧就是其中之一。他在民间传说中成了一个带有传奇色彩的人物，大多是因他娶了一代名妓赛金花为妾。赛金花的故事后来被人写成小说，洪钧也就更加出名了。南厅是十八曼陀罗花馆，宜于冬、春居处，厅南向阳，小院围墙既挡风又聚暧，并使室内有适量的阳光照射。曼陀罗花即山茶花。清代末年，张履谦建此馆时曾栽种18株名贵的山茶花，冬季百花凋零，山茶却如傲雪的腊梅嫣红斗雪，“树头万朵齐吞火，残雪烧红半个天。”表现出蓬勃的生命力，展示着独特的美，此馆匾额是晚清苏州的另一个状元陆润庠所题。陆状元和洪状元在苏州话里洪、陆谐音“红、绿”这一红(洪)一绿(陆)同邑两状元为同一建筑写匾额，为厅堂增色不少。卅六鸳鸯馆内顶棚采用连续四卷的拱型状，既弯曲美观，遮掩顶上梁架，又利用这弧形屋顶来反射声音，增强音响效果，使得余音袅袅，绕梁萦回。主人在此宴友、会客、休憩，环境优雅，在厅中铺就一方红氍毹，吹笛弄箫，吟歌唱曲。陈设古色古香，书画挂屏、家具摆设配置精当。

倒影楼：倒影楼以观赏水中倒影为主的景点。楼分两层，楼下是为“拜文揖沈之斋”，文是指文徵明，沈是指沈周(石田)，这两位均是苏州著名的画家，沈周还是文徵明的老师。拙政园之蜚声江南，是与大画家、大诗人文徵明分不开的。当年，西园园主张履谦为表达自己的景仰之情，于光绪二十年(1894)特建此楼以资纪念，他将自己收藏的文徵明、沈石田画像和《王氏拙政园记》拓片以及俞粟庐书《补园记》石刻嵌在楼下左右两壁。中间裙板上刻有郑板桥的书画真迹。面水的一侧于柱间安装通透玲珑的长窗，窗内有木质低栏。倚栏而立，可凭水观景。左有波形长廊相伴，右有“与谁同坐轩”，尤其是这些景物的倒影如画，尽入眼中。水底明月，池中云彩，波影浮动，景色绝佳。楼上原是园主儿媳王氏的书房。此楼四周遍植桂花无数，入秋赏罢残荷赏金桂，桂香如酒令人醉。无论是读书习字，还是吟诗作画、观景自娱，皆环境可人，幽香可爱。

与谁同坐轩：小亭非常别致，修成折扇状。苏东坡有词“与谁同坐?明月、清风、我”，故名“与谁同坐轩”。轩依水而建，平面形状为扇形，屋面、轩门、窗洞、石桌、石凳及轩顶、灯罩、墙上匾额、鹅颈椅、半栏均成扇面状，故又称作“扇亭”。轩内扇形窗洞两旁悬挂着杜甫的诗句联“江山如有待，花柳自无私。”扇亭地处山麓水边，地理位置甚佳，树高而雄，石幢静立，人在轩中，无论是倚门而望，凭栏远眺，还是依窗近视，小坐歇息，均可感到前后左右美景不断。在扇亭后的土山上还有一小亭，称“笠亭”。“笠”即箬帽，亭作浑圆形，顶部坡度较平缓，恰如一顶箬帽，掩映于枝繁叶茂的草树中，摒弃了一切装饰，朴素无华。山小亭微，搭配匀称，衬以亭前山水，俨然一戴笠渔翁垂钓，悠然自得。前人曾写词赞道：“花间萝蹬一痕青，烟棱云罅危亭。笠檐蓑袂证前盟，恰对渔汀。 红隐霞边山寺，绿皱画里江城。槐衙柳桁绕珑玲，坐听啼莺。”与谁同坐轩和笠亭是两种不同的园林建筑艺术造型，也是在古典园林中较少见的象形建筑。亭、轩结合，浑然一体。笠亭山上有一座八角形双层建筑，高大气派，煞是引人注目。山上林木茂密，绿草如茵，建筑好像浮动于一片翠绿浓荫之上，因而叫做“浮翠阁”。造型高耸凌空，立面槅扇饰有精美图画。登阁眺望四周，但见山清水绿，天高云淡，满园青翠，一派生机盎然，令人心旷神怡，乐不思返。扇亭、笠亭、浮翠阁，地理位置依次是临水、山中、山巅，它们形态各异，大小不一，由低至高，循序渐进，犹如音阶中的哆、唻、咪，一气呵成，使人陶醉在这动听的旋律里。

留厅阁：为单层阁，体型轻巧，四周开窗，阁前置平台，阁内最值得一看的是清代银杏木立体雕刻松、竹、梅、鹊飞罩，浮雕、镂雕、圆雕相结合，刀法娴熟，技艺高超，构思巧妙，将“岁寒三友”和“喜鹊登梅”两种图案柔和在一起，接缝处不留痕迹，浑然天成，是园林飞罩不可多得的精品。从整体外形看，留听阁是一个抽象化的船厅，厅前平台如船头。左侧池塘中种满了荷花，荷花生长期间其叶、蕾、花、果皆有姿有态，观赏期特长，从春末夏初池面冒出点点绿钱到盛夏时节的满池华盖，直至秋意浓浓的枯叶残花，每一个阶段都有其独到的美。俗话说，花无百日红，再美的鲜花最终也是“零落成泥碾作尘”，残花败叶的凄凉晚景让人不忍卒睹，唯独秋塘枯荷却别有一种残缺美的意境，李商隐有“留得残荷听雨声”的名句，留听阁就是取此诗意而名。花谢了，人已老，景犹在，情难忘，触人心境，发人幽思。《红楼梦》第四十四回里 ，贾宝玉与林黛玉乘着姑苏驾娘撑动的木舫在水中游赏，黛玉看到满池荷花时说，我最不喜欢李义山的诗，只喜他一句“留得残荷听雨声……”林黛玉是个极有文化修养的姑娘，多愁善感，聪明绝顶，但又孤傲清高，不愿随波逐流，所以才会对李商隐这句表达冷寂清幽之美的诗句产生共鸣。这虽然是文学作品里的描述，但她所欣赏的如此富有诗意的境界也出现在拙政园的西花园里。大自然的天籁之音，在中国园林中奏出了或恢宏或欢快或喜悦的美妙乐章。

塔影亭：此亭从顶部到底座及四周窗格均为正八角图案，是园中最精致华丽的建筑物之一。在留听阁船台，回头望塔影亭，顿觉美妙至致。狭长的纵向水系拉开了层次，隔了一定的距离，水湾的纵深感就增强了，那攒尖的八角亭印入水中，宛如宝塔，端庄怡然。真亭假塔，虚实相连，不失为西部花园中一个别致的景观。在拙政园中，有两处景观与宝塔有关。一处是在倚虹亭看远借的园外北寺塔，还有一处便是这借水景而成的塔影亭。在中花园中看到的宝塔是实体，而在西花园中看到的宝塔是虚体。不论是真塔远望，还是假塔近观，都让人产生丰富的联想，留下深刻的印象。塔影亭所处的位置并不显眼，已到了花园的尽头。聪明的主人在水源将尽处筑了一个小亭，若将整个西园比作一首旋律优美的乐曲，那么塔影亭 就是最后一节音符。嘎然而止的乐曲让人觉得突兀，而此处有了塔影亭则组成了完整的乐章。更妙的是，不光有亭，还有影，就如曲终遗音余韵不绝，让人回味。

在拙政园里面走走，感觉真不错，景色很美，不管在哪个角度看都是一幅图画。

各位游客：

你们好，欢迎你们来到北京旅游，我是你们的导游__。

恭王府位于北京市西城区前海西街，是清代规模最大的一座王府，先后作为大贪官和珅、庆亲王永璘的宅邸，后被赐予恭亲王奕欣，由此得名恭王府，并沿用至今。恭王府历经了清王朝由鼎盛至衰亡的历史进程，故有“一座恭王府，半部清代史”的说法。

“月牙河绕宅如龙蟠，西山远望如虎踞”，这是史书上对恭王府的描述。就其选址而言，它占据京城绝佳的位置。古人修宅建园很注重风水，北京据说有两条龙脉，一是土龙，即故宫的龙脉;二是水龙，指后海和北海一线，而恭王府正好在后海和北海之间的连接线上，即龙脉上，因此风水非常的好。古人以水为财，在恭王府内“处处见水”，最大的湖心亭的水，是从玉泉湖引进来的，而且只内入不外流，因此更符合风水学敛财的说法。我国十大元帅和郭沫若等人、均在恭王府的附近居住，而且都非常长寿。据说，北京长寿老人最多的地方就是在恭王府附近，这个地方真是一块风水宝地。

恭王府由府邸和花园两部分组成，南北长约330米，东西宽180余米，占地面积约61120平方米，其中府邸占地32260平方米，花园占地28860平方米。府邸不仅宽大，而且建筑也是最高规制。明显的标志是门脸和房屋数量。亲王府有门脸五间，正殿七间，后殿五间，后寝七间，左右有配殿。低于亲王等级的王公府邸决不能多于这些数字。房屋的形式、屋瓦的颜色也是不能逾制的。恭王府的中、东、西三路各有三个院落，其中每一路的后两个院子是人们要游览的主要区域。

府邸建筑分东、中、西三路，每路由南自北都是以严格的中轴线贯穿着的多进四合院落组成。

中路最主要的建筑是银安殿和嘉乐堂，殿堂屋顶采用绿琉璃瓦，显示了中路的威严气派，同时也是亲王身份的体现。东路的前院正房名为多福轩，厅前有一架长了两百多年的藤萝，至今仍长势甚好，在京城极为罕见。东路的后进院落正房名为“乐道堂”，是当年恭亲王奕欣的起居处。西路的四合院落较为小巧精致，主体建筑为葆光室和锡晋斋。精品之作当属高大气派的锡晋斋，大厅内有雕饰精美的楠木隔段，为和珅仿紫禁城宁寿宫式样(此为和珅僭侈逾制，是其被赐死的“二十大罪”之一)。府邸最深处横有一座两层的后罩楼，东西长达156米，后墙共开88扇窗户，内有108间房，俗称“99间半”，取道教“届满即盈”之意。

名为“朗润园或萃锦园”，俗称恭王府花园，徜徉于园中犹如漫步在山水之间。与府邸相呼应，花园也分为东中西三路。中路以一座西洋建筑风格的汉白玉拱形石门为入口，以康熙皇帝御书“福”字碑为中心，前有独乐峰、蝠池，后有绿天小隐、蝠厅，布局令人回味无穷。东路的大戏楼厅内装饰清新秀丽，缠枝藤萝紫花盛开，使人恍如在藤萝架下观戏。戏楼南端的明道斋与曲径通幽、垂青樾、吟香醉月、流杯亭等五景构成园中之园。花园内古木参天，怪石林立，环山衔水，亭台楼榭，廊回路转。月色下的花园景致更是千变万化，别有一番洞天。诸多中外游客慕名而至，寻觅着翠山碧水、曲径幽台在诉说的如烟往事。

恭王府位于前海西街，建于1776—1785年，原为清代乾隆宠臣和珅的私宅，和珅因贪污罪于嘉庆年间被抄家处死后，此处私宅便赠给了庆王。同治朝时，由于恭亲王奕忻协同慈禧发动政变有功，慈禧太后便将此宅赠予他，而成为恭亲王府。

俗呼银銮殿，恭王府最主要的建筑。作为王府的正殿，只有逢重大事件、重要节日时方打开，起到礼仪的作用。民国初年，由于不慎失火，大殿连同东西配殿一并焚毁，现银安殿院落为复建。

和珅时期之建筑。悬挂有“嘉乐堂”匾额一方。该匾疑是乾隆帝赐给和珅的，但匾额无署款，无钤记，故无由证实，但和珅留有《嘉乐堂诗集》，说明是和珅之室名。在恭亲王时期，嘉乐堂主要作为王府的祭祀场所，内供有祖先、诸神等的牌位，以萨满教仪式为主。恭王府规模宏大，占地约6万平方米，分为府邸和花园两部分，拥有各式建筑群落30多处，布局讲究，气派非凡。其花园又名锦翠园，园内布局、设计具有较高的艺术水平。造园模仿皇宫内的宁寿宫。全园以“山”字型假山拱抱，东、南、西面均堆土累石为山，中路又以房山石堆砌洞壑，手法颇高。山顶平台，成为全园最高点。居高临下，可观全园景色。恭王府由于是在权臣和珅邸宅的基础上改建而成，和珅当年定罪的二十大罪状中就有关于内檐装修的“潜侈逾制”问题，如其中的第十三款“查得和珅房屋竟有楠木厅堂，其多宝格及隔断门窗解仿照宁寿宫制度”。因此恭王府的内檐装修在王府文化中别具一格，其所表现的特点尤为突出：

一、 规格最高，可与宫殿建筑比美：

恭王府几座主要厅堂的内檐装修不仅是多宝格、隔断，还可举出仙楼、神殿带毗卢帽的祭灶等装修也与宫廷中别无二制。并有室内假山水池，装修成室内小园林，更是别出心裁。

二、 数量较多，形式多样：

从样式雷图中可以看到当年有内檐装修的建筑多达二十余处，而且具有多种类型，如太师壁、宝座床、碧纱橱、祭灶、万字炕、几腿罩、落地罩、炕罩、真假门、仙楼、书阁、多宝格、顺山炕、前、后檐炕等。

三、 界划灵活，空间丰富：

恭王府内各厅堂的空间根据使用功能划分，格局多样，其主要厅堂既有肃穆、庄严的开敞式大空间，又有私密性的小空间，既有对称式的，也有非对称式的，还有可以灵活组合的。有的适合接待高级宾客，有的用于萨满教的祭祀活动，有的适合起居生活，有的作为寝息，不同的空间需求各得其所。

四、 做工精细，技巧高超：

从恭王府的装修遗留物件中可知皆使用硬木，用材异常讲究，加工的木料可以作出细小的截面，雕刻花纹起伏精确，而且使用圆形或曲线拼出各种华格，只有在精细的加工之基础上才能完成，施工难度之大，令人叹为观止。遗憾的是恭王府的原有内檐装修，绝大部分已经无存，今天通过研究王府文化，要进一步将其发掘出来，结合今后的王府博物馆展示要求，再现当年辉煌。

乾隆四十一年，即1776年，和珅开始在这东依前海，背靠后海的位置修建他的豪华宅第，时称“和第”。有说法称、明弘治年间、大太监李广也曾经置第于此。嘉庆四年正月初三太上皇弘历归天，次日嘉庆褫夺了和珅军机大臣、九门提督两职，抄了其家，估计全部财富约值白银八亿两，相当于清政府十五年的财政收入，所以有“和珅跌倒，嘉庆吃饱”的说法。同年正月十八，即1799年2月22日，和珅被“赐令自尽”。而宅子本身，则如愿归“爱豪宅不爱江山”的胞弟庆僖亲王永璘所有。

与此同时，嫁予和珅之子的乾隆之女和孝公主，仍居住在半座宅第中。咸丰元年，即1851年，清末重要政治人物恭亲王奕?成为这所宅子的第三代主人，改名恭王府，恭王府之名由此沿用至今。“一座恭王府，半部清朝史”是历史地理学家侯仁之对恭王府的评价。民国初年，这座王府被恭亲王的孙子溥伟以40万块大洋卖给教会，后由辅仁大学用108根金条赎回，并用作女生学堂。新中国成立以后，王府曾被公安部宿舍、风机厂、音乐学院等多家单位使用过。

恭王府是我国保存最为完整的王府建筑群，分为府邸和花园两部分，府在前，园在后。恭王府的开放，早在30年前，就被提上议事日程。1975年，周总理在病床上，以3件未做完的事情托付谷牧，其中之一就是恭王府的开放问题。

恭王府始建于清乾隆年间，初为大学士和珅的私邸。

同治初年，这里的第三代主人恭亲王奕欣，身兼议政王、军机领班大臣等要职，重权在握，显赫一时，乃大筑邸园，同时也对府邸部分进行了修缮与改建。我们看到的恭王府的建筑规模与格局，就是在那个时候最后形成的。

恭王府前半部是富丽堂皇的府邸，后半部为幽深秀丽的古典园林，总占地面积将近六万平方米。其府邸建筑庄重肃穆，尚朴去华，明廊通脊，气宇轩昂，仅次于帝王居住的宫室。府后的萃锦园则衔水环山，古树参天，曲廊亭榭，富丽天然;其间景致之变化无常，开合有致，实为中国园林建筑的典范。

根据现有的文献记载，在这块位于京城前海西岸，被"蟠龙水"环抱着的风水宝地上，元、明两朝曾经有过一座规模宏大的寺院，香火旺盛，游人如织，就连皇帝也来此礼佛上香。大约十六世纪中叶，该寺院才逐渐荒废，沦落为明朝廷的供应厂;清朝入主北京以后，在这里建造大小不等的院落若干，供内务府等普通旗人居住。

乾隆四十年前后，在皇帝面前红得发紫的和珅，相中了这块四周萦水，遥接西山，而且又离“皇上家”不远的风水宝地，遂以高价购买下这里的多处房产，建造成大名鼎鼎的“和第”。

恭王府之被称“半部清朝史”，是和居住在这里的三代主人密切相关的。尽人皆知，第一代府主和珅，是乾隆晚期的宰辅、大学士，又是历史上赫赫有名的贪官，在清史中十分惹人注目，有关他的传说也因此多不胜数。特别是他的儿子丰绅殷德，后来娶了乾隆皇帝的小女儿固伦和孝公主为妻，使这座豪宅一时成为了实际上的公主府……

嘉庆四年，和珅因罪赐死，嘉庆皇帝遂将这座宅第转赐给他的小弟弟庆郡王永璘。永璘大概算得上历代主人里最为钟爱这座豪宅的人。早在和珅当道时，乾隆的诸位皇子便凑在一起商订，将来不管谁当了皇帝，都要“办”掉和珅，惟十七皇子永璘说：“将来不论哪位哥哥当上皇帝，只要把和珅的这座豪宅赏给我，我就知足!”

说到永璘，或者许多人都不太熟悉，但若提起他的孙子，那个与李鸿章一起同八国联军签订《辛丑条约》的庆亲王奕劻，恐怕又是无人不晓了。奕劻也是中国近代史上著名的贪官，但与清末那一群懦庸无能的王公贝勒相比，他总还算是一个敢于负责，能够委以重任的人。因此，从同治朝起，奕劻便得到慈禧太后的宠信。在咸丰将府邸改赐恭亲王之前，他一直以辅国将军的身份在此居住。

至于说恭亲王奕欣，那更是中国近代史上最重要的政治人物之一，他参与了第二次鸦片战争以及其后(1853-1898年之间)的几乎全部重大政治活动，"辛酉政变"时，就是他把慈禧扶上了"垂帘听政"的宝座……毫不夸张地说，如果没有奕欣，整部中国近代史，乃至后来的中国历史就会改写。

如果说世间万物都有灵性，那么这座被"蟠龙水"包围着的明珠一般美丽的建筑，自从它诞生的那一天起，就注定是一个充满着忧伤气质，命运多舛的苦命宅园。

嘉庆四年(1799年)，和珅被处死之后，嘉庆帝即将这座豪宅的西半部，赐给了他那个只要和珅府不要皇帝位的十七弟永璘。之所以只给他一半，是因为当时，乾隆皇帝的十公主及其额驸丰绅殷德还住在那里。

和孝公主，是整部清朝历史中最具传奇色彩的公主，其生母为乾隆皇帝晚年的宠妃汪氏。乾隆四十年正月，当这位性情、外貌全都酷肖其父的"最幼女"来到世界时，皇帝已然是六十五岁高龄的老人。十公主虽身为女子，但天生神力，能开十个劲的硬弓，时常陪着父皇骑马打猎，乾隆因此爱她胜过所有的子女，他不只一次叹息："你要是个阿哥，这个皇位将来非你莫属啊!"的确，十公主非但武功卓绝，而且胸襟非凡，当和珅春风得意时，驸马倚仗其父权势行为娇纵，公主就曾经严肃地训斥他："你阿玛受我父皇厚恩，不思回报，却只知纳贿。我都替你们担忧啊，到了身家不保的那一天，连我也要受到你们牵累!"

十公主的话，虽不幸言中，但嘉庆皇帝最终还是念着兄妹之情，没有剥夺他这个小妹夫的爵位，公主夫妇也仍然住在原来的家里。这座宅第也就因此一分为二，西为庆王府;东为公主府，一直到道光三年(1820__年)九月，十公主去世，整座府邸才全部归到庆王名下，而那时，永璘已经死去三年多了……

辛亥以后，按照民国政府优待清室条例的规定，王府成了府主人的私产。后因政局动荡，生计艰危，未世王孙们纷纷卖掉府第，以图生存。恭王府当然也同北京的其他王府一样，没能逃脱可悲的蜕变与分割。

1920__年，小恭王溥伟为筹集复辟经费，将恭王府府邸部分的"龙票"，以八万银元的价格低押给北京天主教会的西什库教堂。十几年后，利上加利，原先八万银元的抵押款，滚到了近二十万，穷途末路的溥伟早已无力偿还这笔巨款债务了。1932年，由罗马教会兴办的辅仁大学，以教会之间的关系，用一百零八根金条代偿了这笔贷款，产权遂归这所大学。1937年，辅仁大学因扩充女生宿舍，收回房产，将府邸部分作为女院，并把后罩楼通向萃锦园的通道砌死，这样，府邸与花园就开始分开了。同年，原先居住在邸园中的溥伟二弟溥儒，又以十万银元的价格将花园也卖给了辅仁大学。

1949年，恭王府花园改为某国家机关宿舍;府邸为艺术师范学院、中国音乐学院及文化部艺术研究院等单位使用。1952年，中国音乐学院拆府前部一进四合院，盖起一座"现代风格"的食堂;1959年，又拆掉了原府邸大门外的所有房屋，建筑起一座曲尺形的琴楼和一座一字形的画楼。"_"期间，厂桥空调器厂占用了大戏楼等花园东部的"半壁江山";国管局幼儿园则占据西路建筑。由于不合理使用与地震的破坏，到七十年代中晚期，花园的部分游廊和府邸东路南部一进院落的正房及东西厢房先后倒塌，其他建筑也都遭到不同程度的损毁，但所幸王府总体格局未遭破坏。

恭王府——世界最大的四合院，除皇帝和家眷外，任何人是不得住进紫禁城的。因此皇亲国戚们都要建造自己的宅弟，以为家居之所。于是，王府便产生了。今日的北京城里，还有60余座清代王府，其中恭王府是保存最完整的一个。

北京的清代王府都分布在内城区里，这和清代北京城的居住限制密切相关。城墙未拆除以前，北京城的格局是大“口”里面包小“口”，最中心的是故宫，外面的第二层是皇城，为政府衙门，第三层是内城，为清代八旗王公贵族集中居住的地方;最外面的第四层，才是汉人和其他民族的集中居住地。今天在北京内城漫步，还能时时看见深宅大院。

位于什刹海北岸的恭王府分为平行的东、中、西三路。中路的3座建筑是府邸的主体，一是大殿，二是后殿，三是延楼，延楼东西长160米，有40余间房屋。东路和西路各有3个院落，和中路建筑遥相呼应。王府的最后部分是花园，20多个景区各不相同。

大观园是中国古典文学名著《红楼梦》里描绘的一大园林。《红楼梦》成书于北京，有中国封建社会秘史之称。根据书中的描写，人们在北京西南角建起了一座园林。这处取名大观园的新园是今日北京的一大胜景，每天游人不断。

由于恭王府有着《红楼梦》中所描绘的某些景物，因此有人说恭王府花园是大观园的蓝本。但是，许多人又提出了不同的意见。恭王府到底是不是大观园的蓝本呢?这可能也是一个永远的秘密了。

恭王府的主人，是一等贵族，所以他的府邸不仅宽大，而且建筑也是最高格制。明显的标志是门脸和房屋数量。亲王府有门脸5间正殿7间，后殿5间，后寝7间，左右有配殿。低于亲王等级的王公府邸决不能多于这些数字。

如果你看到深宅大院的门口耸立着石狮，你马上就可以判定大院的主人是不低于五品的-;如果你再仔细数一数石狮头上的卷毛疙瘩，你就会进一步认定品极;皇帝门口的石狮上有13排疙瘩，亲王12排，爵位越低，数量递减。

房屋的形式、屋瓦的颜色也是不能替越的。恭王府以前的主人是大0相和坤，他修建了庆颐堂，模仿了皇帝的宁寿宫。皇帝“加恩赐令自尽”时，这是其中的一条罪状。

Yangmingshan National Park was formerly known as Tatun National Park(1937-1945), which was established during the Japanese rule in Chinese Taiwan. Locatedin the outskirts of Taipei, the administrative area includes Beitou District andShilin District of Taipei City, and Wanli District, Jinshan District, ShimenDistrict, Sanzhi district and Danshui District of Xinbei city. Geographically,it belongs to Datun volcano catchment area. The plan was announced on September1, 1985, and the management office was established on September 16, 1985. Afterthree comprehensive reviews, the area under its jurisdiction was 11338 hectaresby 20__.

Yangmingshan, formerly known as tsaoshan (Tai Luo: TSH á u-suann),generally refers to the mountainous areas of Datun mountain, Qixing mountain,Shamao mountain and Xiaoguanyin mountain, rather than a single peak. During theQing Dynasty, the government worried that the bandits could hide in the forestto steal sulfur, so they set the mountain on fire regularly, so the wholemountain area could only grow Miscanthus.

During the Japanese rule period, in 1927, Chinese Taiwan Riri Xinbao held a popularvote to elect "Chinese Taiwans eight scenic spots and twelve victories", and Caoshanwas elected as one of the twelve victories of Chinese Taiwan. The Japanese call Caoshan"Chinese Taiwans Hakone.".

Datun National Park Association was established in 1932, which included thearea of Datun mountain in the scope of National Park. On December 27, 1937,Tatun National Park was established at the same time as two national parks,namely, the second high Taroko National Park and the new high Alishan NationalPark, until the surrender of Japan in World War II in 1945. At that time, theTatun National Park included the Guanyin Mountain on the other side of theTanshui River.

In 1945, the national government acquired Chinese Taiwan. In 1950, President JiangZhongzheng changed the name of the mountain area formerly known as Caoshan toYangmingshan in memory of Ming Dynasty scholar Ming. In 1962, the then PublicWorks Bureau of Chinese Taiwan province began to plan Yangmingshan National Park, with apreliminary planning area of 28400 hectares, including the north coast,Guanyinshan and Datun volcanoes.

On September 16, 1985, after years of planning and settlement of landresource disputes, Yangmingshan National Park was officially established. Itsscope is mainly in the center of Datun volcano. It does not include the GuanyinMountain in the Japanese rule period and the initial planning, nor does thenorth coast. On October 17, 20__, the north coast and Guanyin Mountain Nationalscenic spots were planned by the Tourism Bureau of the Ministry ofcommunications.

Hello everyone! Im your guide Zhou Keyu. You can call me Xiao Zhou. We aregoing to Juyongguan Great Wall. Juyongguan Great Wall is located in ChangpingCounty, Beijing. There are many flowers and trees around it. It will make youfeel comfortable there. How did the great wall of Juyongguan get its name? It issaid that when the first emperor of Qin built the Great Wall, many prisonerswere held here. Soldiers and civil servants lived here, which means "to be anapprentice to Juyongguan", so it was named Juyongguan.

Genghis Khan entered the pass from then on and destroyed the kingdom ofJin. Here is also a very familiar sad story. Its said that when Qin Shihuangwas building the Great Wall, he caught civilian men everywhere. The officers andsoldiers took away a husband named Meng Jiangnu. Since then, there was no news.She decided to go to her husband. When she came to the Great Wall, she saw manypeople working and dying underground. She asked an old man who was working. Theold man said, "he died soon after he arrived, and the body filled the wall."Meng Jiangnu was so sad that she began to cry. She cried for three days andthree nights, only to hear the thunder. The wall collapsed by lightning,revealing her husbands body. Qin Shihuang was also moved by her and said, "Illgive you a lot of gold and silver jewelry. Please go."

Meng Jiangnu said, "I wont go. I want to be with my husband forever." Withthat, she committed suicide. Now, we are at the foot of the Great Wall. We alllook up. On the top of the tower is written a few big words: "the most powerfulgate in the world.". We have climbed the great wall and come to the hero slope.Here, we can see the famous sentence "no man is not a hero until he reaches theGreat Wall", which was written by Chairman Mao himself. Now, you can have a resthere and take photos in front of the monument, but please dont go far. In fiveminutes, we will move on. Standing high, you can see the beacon tower in thedistance. The function of beacon towers is that when the enemy comes, the beacontowers on both sides can echo and support each other.

Now we have come to the beacon tower. We can walk inside and have a look atthe scenery outside. We will walk back from here. You can enjoy the sceneryinside and outside the great wall while you walk, and meet at the gate in halfan hour. In the process of free activities, please pay attention to: do notlitter, do not scribble on the bricks. We are going back to the hotel. I hopethe beautiful scenery here can bring you a good dream.

Dear tourists, how are you? Im your guide. You can call me Liu Dao. Whatwere going to visit today is the temple of heaven, the place where the emperorworshiped heaven.

Emperor Yongle of the Ming dynasty built the altar for heaven worship inthe south of Beijing, imitating the Great Hall of worship in Nanjing. The mainbuilding is the Great Hall of worship, which is the location of todays Hall ofpraying for new year. The temple of heaven has outer wall and inner wall. It isround in the north and square in the south.

Now we are going south along the central axis of the temple of heaven. Whatwe are going to see is the Circular Mound Altar where the ancient emperorsoffered sacrifices to heaven. There are two enclosure walls in the round hill,which make the outside square and the inside round, in line with the statementthat the sky is round and the place is round. What needs to be mentioned inparticular is that the place where the emperor stood was the Tianxin stone inthe center of the mesa. He is one of the three acoustic phenomena in the templeof heaven. When reading aloud here, the voice is particularly loud, and now itsthe same here. You tourists may as well experience the strange effect, and likethe emperor of that year, tell God your good wishes.

As you may have noticed just now, there are many cypress trees in thetemple of heaven. Yes, its like a natural oxygen bar in Beijing. Among theseancient cypresses, there is a cypress over 500 years old, which is the ninedragon cypress outside the west wall of echo wall. Its trunk texture is verystrange, full of ravines, and twisted, like nine dragons winding around playing,so it is not too much to call it Jiulong cypress. Please dont climb trees. Payattention to your words and deeds. This is a sacred place. We should keep aquiet mind,

After liberation, the temple of heaven has not only become a famous touristattraction, but also an integral part of Beijings urban green space. Not onlytourists come here, but also some elderly people who are specially for physicalfitness.

Todays tour is over. I hope this tour can make you remember and leave adeep memory in your heart.

Lushan the whole is made up of ninety-nine peaks, of which, the five-old-man peak is the representative of the lushan mountain, but it is not the highest, the highest mountain lushan is hanyang mountain.

But compared with the other famous mountains, lushan mountain is not high, but our country has a good old saying said, "the mountain is not high, with fairy is name." Legend in YanZhou period, when an and several hobbies named quantico magic friends go to the mountain lu, the practice. There was a king Zhou Ding, want to take advantage of them. Take people to up the hill looking, and only see some abandoned the hermitage, he asked the whereabouts of their residents, residents say they have been "feathers fairy. As a result, he left the mountain of the hermitage, called "lushan".

大家好，我叫高晨睿，你可以叫我高导，今天我们的目的地是敦煌莫高窟。

莫高窟位于中国甘肃省敦煌市东南25公里处的鸣沙山东麓断崖上，前临宕泉河，面向东，南北长1600米，高50米。莫高窟属全国重点文物保护单位，俗称千佛洞，以精美的壁画和塑像闻名于世。它建于十六国的前秦时期，历经十六国、北朝、隋、唐、五代、西夏。是世界上现存规模最大、内容最丰富的佛教艺术圣地。进莫高窟，你们可以看壁画，但不要去触摸壁画，也不要用普通手电筒和闪光照相机，不然会破坏壁画的。

莫高窟是一座绘于洞窟四壁、窟顶和佛龛内，内容博大精深，主要有佛像、佛教故事、供养人、装饰图案等七类题材，这些画雄浑宽广、鲜艳瑰丽，体现了不同时期的艺术风格和特色。莫高窟的壁画上，处处可见漫天飞舞的美丽飞天，飞天在无边无际的茫茫宇宙中飘舞，有的从空中俯冲下来，执若流星;有的穿过重楼高阁宛如游龙。

今天的旅程到此结束，我很高兴为大家做导游，再见!

各位游客大家好!

欢迎您来江苏大明寺游览，我是导游员小萌。今天有幸陪同大家游览江苏大明寺，共度美好时光，我感到十分荣幸。

大明寺位于扬州西北郊的蜀冈之上。它既是一座佛叫庙宇，也是一方风景名胜，由大雄宝殿、平远楼、平山堂、御园、鉴真纪念堂、栖灵塔、天下第五泉等组成。

大明寺殿内迎面坐着释迦牟尼等三尊大佛;背面为海岛，上有观音脚踏鳌头的立像。殿内东西两侧分列着十八罗汉，这里常年香烟缭绕，经声不断，每年元旦前夕，常有日本客人来此撞钟，以求幸福。

栖灵塔

西隋朝时，隋文帝杨坚笃信佛教，仁寿元年(601)他过生日，曾下诏在全国建立三十座供养佛舍利的塔，扬州栖灵塔，便是其中之一，唐代大诗人李白曾登临此塔，赞叹道：“宝塔凌苍苍，登攀览四荒”，称赞宝塔气势磅礴。

白居易、刘禹锡同游该塔，两人同龄，都是55岁的人了，但精神很好，兴致很高，在扬州玩了半个月，登栖灵塔是他们这次游览的高潮，白居易写诗道：“半月腾腾在广陵，何楼何塔不同登。共怜筋力尤堪任，上到栖灵第九层”。刘禹锡写诗道：“步步相携不觉难，九层云外倚阑干。忽然笑语半天上，无数游人举眼看”。

他们是以登上栖灵塔为自豪的，现在该塔修复，塔身方形，总高度为70米，共9层。塔为仿唐式塔，东西南北每面四柱三间，一门二窗，平座腰檐，出檐深远，屋面平坡，腰鼓形柱，直棂形窗。塔雄踞蜀岗之上，气势雄伟，古朴典雅，远观似孤峰耸秀，矗入云霄;登临则眼界顿开，胸襟旷达。

接下来，我们来欣赏壁画展厅。这里的壁画有很多，内容丰富多彩。我左边是记录佛教故事的描绘神佛形像的，右边的是反映民间生活的和描摹自然风光。大家知道我身后的壁画是什么吗?对了，那就是引人注目的飞天。这一个飞天臂挎花篮，采摘鲜花;这一个飞天怀抱琵琶，银拨银弦;这一个飞天倒悬身子，自天而降;这一个飞天彩带飘拂，漫天遨游;而这一个飞天舒展双壁，翩翩起舞。你们看了这些壁画是否觉得进入了艺术殿堂?是的，我告诉你们，莫高窟是举世闻名的艺术宝库，这里的每一幅壁画，每一尊彩塑，都是我国古代劳动人民智慧的结晶。

各位朋友：

大家好!欢迎诸位来天津古文化街参观游览。1985年建成的古文化街为天津城市增添了几许异彩，以其特有的“中国味”、“天津味”、“古味”、“文化味”吸引着来自远方的异乡游客。

这条街上有一座享誉几百年的古庙，它原名“天妃宫”，后该称“天后宫”。天津东临渤海，背倚京城，自古就是舟车汇集的水陆交通枢纽。天后宫就是在漕运大发展的情况下，为庇佑漕运建立起的祭祀海神天后的庙宇。

天后宫始建于元朝泰定三年，公元1326年，坐东朝西，是天津市区目前最古老的建筑。

天后宫，从东到西，由戏楼、幡杆、山门、楼牌、前殿、正殿、藏经阁、启圣祠，以及分列南北的钟鼓楼、张仙阁和配殿等建筑组成。

幡杆，在天后宫门前。据说，幡杆初立时，一方面挂灯，为往来三岔河口的漕船导航，另一方面则作为天后宫的陪衬物，使整个建筑群显得错落有致，气势不凡。后来，幡杆在农历每月初一、十五进香日及庙会期间，专门悬挂天后封号长幡。

山门是砖木混合结构组成。门额是用整砖雕刻“敕建天后宫”，这个山门是清朝乾隆年间增建的。

进得山门，迎面是木结构的两柱--楼式牌楼。牌楼是元、明时代天妃宫前的标志。“护国庇民”意思是“上以护国家，下以庇民生。”

在牌楼两侧的，北边是鼓楼，右边是钟楼。

过牌楼，就是前殿。前殿是天妃宫最早的山门，供奉护法神王灵官和人称“四大金刚”的“千里眼”、“顺风耳”、“加善”、“加恶”。

越过前殿，就是天后宫的主体建筑正殿，正殿是敬奉天后娘娘的地方，天后娘娘中局佛龛，身披霞披，头戴凤冠，四位侍女捧印、抱瓶、打扇恭立两旁。

穿正殿，即为藏经阁。藏经阁是砖、木结构的二层楼阁。现为民俗博物馆展厅。

在藏经阁的后面，过甬路，为启圣祠，即后殿。

昔日，天后宫供奉主神，当然是天后娘娘。但是，由于历史的原因，天后宫在漫长的岁月里，形成了佛道混杂，百神聚集的复杂情况。南北配殿供奉王三奶奶、挑水哥哥、送药天师、白老太太、龙王、药王诸神。

现在的天后宫内两侧厢房陈列有介绍天津城、天后宫及皇会的兴起和变迁，陈列明代天津城砖、清代漕运模型及各种民俗造型(婚礼仪仗、服饰等)、清代水机等文物。

综观天后宫的建筑，经历了各个时期的重修、大修及重建阶段，形成了其特有的风格。

出庙门，以北的一段街，叫“宫北大街”，庙门以南的大街即名“宫南大街”。

“宫南”、“宫北”口两处楼牌共有楼匾四块。

南口南面楼匾为“津门故里”四字，北口北面楼匾是“沽上艺苑”，二字八句，对仗工整，恰似极好地一副联语。

漫步古文化街，进出店铺时，您会看到许多店铺门面檐下、枋间有一幅幅极具江南造园艺术风格的苏画。构图生动有典，形态逼真，使得古文化街绚丽无比，风采迷人。

让我们来浏览一下苏画吧!

南口集珍阁檐下枋间画的是《三国演义》，从最东一架梁枋是“桃园三结义”，接下去依次是“虎牢关三英站吕布”、“凤仪亭吕布戏貂禅”、“三顾茅庐”、“当阳拒曹”、“甘露寺刘备招亲”、“夜战马超”、“截江夺斗”等八幅，从西蜀角度着重刻画了刘备、关羽、张飞三人的忠义、英勇故事。对面的梨园阁枋间也有画八幅，画的是古典戏剧名著《西厢记》，也就是相府小姐崔莺莺与赶考书生张君瑞的恋爱故事。从北边的一架梁枋起依次是“张生惊艳”、“张生普救寺借厢”、“墙角遥见”、“崔莺莺夜听琴”、“张生跳墙”、“书斋相会”、“拷打红娘”、“长亭送别”。

此外，乡景斋枋间的“化蝶”、“十八相送”;文运堂书店的“水漫金山”、“祭塔救母”;芸萃斋、印景轩、风来阁、石古斋的枋间画的也都是《红楼梦》中大家熟知的一些故事。

在门面建筑装饰中除彩绘故事画外，另树一帜的是砖、木雕刻装饰。其内容广泛，多数带有浓郁的民俗气息和吉祥喜庆寓意。

士宝斋前木雕取意《清明上河图》几处波澜起伏、情节变化的画面。北头一幅是：汴河岸边泊着许多船只，河心一只大船上七八人拼命摇橹。船工的奋力以进，说明载重量之大河水上运输的繁忙紧张情况。中间一幅，画面正中是汴河上东水门外的虹桥。桥下一只载满大船正要通过，全体船夫紧张操作，桥上车辆、牲口、各色行人和看水、看船的人摩肩接踵，构成一股都会生活的洪流，是《清明上河图》画卷的高潮部分。

当您走进店铺前，抬头瞧瞧门面字号，会发现这里每家店铺的牌匾都带有古老的传统，给讲求“生意兴隆”的商业环境增添了不少浓郁的文化气息。“金字牌匾”在文化街各店铺普遍悬挂，为街区增添了墨妙异彩。

正是这样，古文化街无论建筑风貌、店铺装修、匾额楹联，经营商品都带有浓郁的艺术气息。漫步古文化街上已足赏心悦目;而古玩、字画、文房四宝、碑帖、古籍、杨柳青年画、泥人张彩塑、天津风筝等专业店铺丛聚本街，供您观赏、选购。至于中西乐器、艺术陶瓷、装潢小件也都有专店，买上一两件，固是惬人心意的事，而流连一番，或许也可以受到熏陶、启迪，摄取到一些营养吧。

好，谢谢大家，我的讲解到此结束了。但愿后会有期，我能再次为您服务。愿天津古文化街一行留在您美好的回忆中。

Comes in front of Hangzhou, you certainly had heard "on has theheaven, gets down has Suzhou and Hangzhou" this famous saying!Actually, analogies Hangzhou between the adult the heaven, in the verygreat degree is because had Xihu. Since 1100, the Xihu scenery has thecharm which prolonged does not fade, her abundant posture beautifulfigure, makes one fall in love. Tang Dynasty big poet Bai Juyi leaveswhen Hangzhou also never forgets Xihu, "has not been able to throwHangzhou to go, one partly stops over is this lake." The poet said himtherefore does not give up leaves Hangzhou, its main reason is becauseHangzhou has a beautiful enchanting Xihu. "The world Xihu 36, centershould better be Hangzhou"!

Friends: Under on rides the ship along with me from the mountainshrine wharf to tour together Xihu. Before ship start, I firstintroduce Xihu the survey: Xihu is located the Hangzhou west end,three goes around a mountain, the east side borders on the urbandistrict, the north and south long approximately 3.2 kilometers, thething width approximately 2.8 kilometers, circles lake week nearly 15kilometers. The area approximately 5.68 square kilometers, includingthe lake in the islands are 6.3 square kilometers, the hydraulic meandepth 1.55 meters, most deep place about 2.8 meters, most shallow partinsufficient 1 meter, water-holding capacity in 8.5 million to 8.7million cubic meters between. Outside Su Di and the Bai Dike divideinto Lake Surface the lake, North In the lake, the syli lake mountain lake andthe small Lake Nanhu 5 parts. Xihu everywhere has the beautifulscenery, in the history except has "the money pond ten scenery", "theXihu 18 scenery" beside, what is most famous is the Southern SongDynasty chooses a name "the Xihu ten scenery", mother: Su Di springday dawn, the tune courtyard wind-load, the Pinghu harvest moon,breaks the bridge remnant snow, the flowered port view fish, south thescreen Wan Zhong, the split-blip inserts the cloud, the thunder peakevening glow, Three deep pools India month, the scull wave hears 茑. If connotationwhich selects by each character, they are: The spring, summer, fall,and winter is colored, late cloud evening month willow tree. The spotleft regardless of spring, summer, fall, and winter, regardless of thebright 晦 dusk, the Xihu beautiful scenery all has at times,everywhere all in characteristic. In 1985 commented "the new Xihu tenscenery". In take Xihu as in the central 60 square kilometersbotanical gardens scenic spot, was proclaiming the main scenery scenicspot has 40 place, the key cultural relic historical site has 30place. Summarizes the Xihu scenery mainly take a lake, two peaks,three springs, four temples, five mountains, six gardens, seven holes,eight graves, nine brooks, ten Jing assheng. On November 8, 1982,State Council Xihu will list as one of first batch of national keyscenery scenic spots. In 1985, in "the Chinese ten big sceneriesscenic spots" in the evaluation, Xihu is evaluated third.

Xihu is such beautiful, certainly is breeding many marvelous movingfables. Hands down before very the long time, the space had jade LongHejin on phoenixs to find a Baiyu nearby Milky Way immortal island,they pondered over very many years, Baiyu turned a light shining inall directions the pearl, where did this no. 3 gunpowder tea pearlyluster according to arrive, where trees evergreen, the hundred flowerswere in full bloom. Day after tomorrow the news will pass to theheavenly palace, queen mother of the west sends the gifted general tocome to snatch the bead. Jade Long Hejin the phoenix hurries to therope bead, encounters the grandmother to reject, thereupon youstruggle me to seize, the grandmother is thrown off in the place, atwo pine, the pearl falls the world, turned crystal clear limpid Xihu,jade Long Hejin the phoenix also descended along with it, turned jadeMt. Longshan (namely Jade Emperor mountain) with Pheonix mountains,forever protected shore of in the Xihu..

Xihu took the famous scenery place, many Chinese and foreign celebrityhave only one in mind to this. The Mao Zedong life Chinese CommunistParty 40 time comes Hangzhou, longest has fully lived 7 months longtime, he treats as Hangzhou "the second family". Mao Zedong frequentlycommended Xihu is elegant, but he before death never officiallypublishes has described Xihu the poetry. The Chinese extraordinarypersonalities like Xihu, the foreign friend is forgets to return toXihu. American former president Nixon two time comes Hangzhou, heacclaims said: "Beijing is Chinas capital, but Hangzhou is thisnational heart, I also must again come." Nixon the red Pine whichproduced the hometown California state has also given Hangzhou.

Our ship slowly started. I first entire You Hu travelling schedulesimple introduction: A link lake week-long scenic spot has a mountainand two dikes. A Shan Zhi isolated hill, the isolated hill scenic areascenic spot historical site reaches 30 place west, can appreciatealong the lakes has the Ling bridge, the fall 瑾 grave, west outsidethe Ling India society, the building the building, the Zhongshan Parkand so on. After isolated hill is the Bai Dike, gets up from thePinghu harvest moon, finally breaks the bridge remnant snow, after thebridge also has the famous gem to flow landscape and so on rosy cloud.Appreciates along the lake scenery, we will go to in again the lakethree islands, the pleasure boat finally approach shore in the Sovietdike.

Now the ship is going from the west to the east, each position arrivesis area the isolated hill scenery. West west the isolated hill meetsthe Ling bridge, east continually Bai Dike, elevation 35 meters, area200,000 square meters. Isolated hill scenery Tang Songnian has beenwell-known, the Southern Song Dynasty principle ancestor onceconstructed the broad in scale Western Pacific second grade palace inthis, divideed into the most place isolated hill the Emperors garden.Qing Dynasty Emperor Kanghsi constructs the temporary palace in this,Emperor Yong Zheng changes the temporary palace for the saint becauseof the temple, hid the temple with then spirit, only the kind temple,according to celebrates the temple and calls "Xihu four big jungles" " . Perhaps some friends want to ask that, Does theisolated hill since Xihu in the biggest islands, why have to name "theisolated hill"? This is because in the history this mountain sceneryis specially exquisite, continuously is called loner emperor to hold,therefore is the isolated hill. Says from the geology, the isolatedhill is composed by the volcano blowout liparite, the entire bird isand the land continually in together, therefore "the isolated hill isnot orphaned, breaks the bridge to be unceasing, the long bridge isnot long" is been called Xihu three certainly.

Everybody front looked again that link hole stone arch bridge, issituated at west the isolated hill west, the name is called the Lingbridge. It and broke the bridge, the long bridge and is called theXihu ancient times three big sentiments bridge.

Crossed west the Ling bridge, after the isolated hill in the foothillgreen grove had reveres the white marble cast, only saw this heroineleft hand to fork the waist, the right hand presses the sword,flashing eyes, held up the head front the gaze, resembled is seekingthe revolutionary truth. Who is she? She is our country womensliberation movement pioneer, for overthrows Qing Dynasty, strives forthe national independence and the heroical sacrifice "the warning lakefemale variant" the fall 瑾. This cast height 2.7 meters, the graveplace height 2 meters, on the positive tablet stone should have SunYat-Sen to write personally "the heroine" 4 large brush-writtenChinese characters. Fall 瑾 martyrs cast, for our one kind ofenlightenment: Xihus being well-known, not merely has occupiedvictory of the scenery, it multiplied the brilliance because of themultitudinous historical personage. In the Xihu scenic spot, by thereputation is "in the lake three is outstanding" Yue Fei, Yu Qian,Zhang Cangshui, but also has with the fall 瑾 for promotes togethernearly issues 0N anothers behalf host revolutionary Xu Xilin, TaoChengzhang which China devoted and so on, all has interred the WestLake lakeside.

Our ship continues slowly to go toward the east, each position sawfront whitewashes a wall together, in the courtyard then is the famouswest Ling India society. Right flank India society, this China and theWest combines and complements one another the construction, is hundredyear old shop Lou Wailou. Outside the building the building founded in1848, shop takes from the Southern Song Dynasty poet forest rises"outside the mountain outside the green hill building the building"the famous phrase. Outside the building the building resulted in theweather, the advantage, the person and then, has received many Chineseand foreign celebrity. Outside the building the building managed ahousehold the famous cuisine number Xihu vinegar fish, it was selectsin Xihu the grass carp which bred in the stipulation scope, was firsthungry in the clear water 12 days, except the soil taste, then boiledthe system to become. Cheng Caihou Xihu vinegar fish, luster redbright, the meat taste fresh and tender, sour and sweet is delicious,slightly brings the crab taste, is Hangzhou most has therepresentative flavor famous cuisine.

Now the ship sailed to the Zhongshan Park, the isolated hill mainentrance in here. "The mountain in is not high, has the immortalthen", the isolated hill not only is a scenery Mingshan, also is acultural Mingshan. Isolated hill status in Xihu scenic area thereforeis such important, is because it is containing the rich history, thecultural connotation, in the scenic area famously has "the Xihu worldscenery," also commemorates the Northern Song Dynasty to hideleisurely poet Lin Hejing to put the crane pavilion. After thesescenic spots and so on come ashore we to go to the visit.

Nearby the Zhongshan Park, we saw this group of buildings wererecently construct are completed "the Zhejiang Province museum". Thenthe surface exhibits on 姆 is crossing the culture to 7000 ago river,gets down to near modern cultural relic exhibit article 1,700. Behindthe museum ancient construction is Qing Dynastys imperial library WenLange, it is our country one of seven storytelling Chinese stylepavilions which "the Four Books" constructs for the collection.

Please front looked that prominent Lake Surface cement platform double-eavedroof alcove has unfolded us at present, this place constructs at theQing Dynasty Kangxi Dynasty construction, the name calls Pinghu theharvest moon. It is Bai Dikes beginning, also is Hangzhou three bigenjoys looking at the moon one of paradises. In the history Hangzhouperson midautumn festival enjoys looking at the moon has three bigdestinations: In the lake pushes one of three islands Three deep pools India month, onthe mountain should be the phoenix hillside 月岩 the scenic spot, asfor the shore, number this pale blue wind was clear, the water and skyaltogether blue Pinghu harvest moon!

Now each position saw front this strip "between willow peach" the tourcauseway is the Bai Dike. When our ship drives here, the Xihu mostbeautiful scenery presented in front of everybody. Looks! In the dikenearby two respectively has line of willows, the prunus persica,specially is playing, the willow branch exudes, the peach tree greenbright red, a piece of pink willow green scenery, the tourist reachesthis point, as if like near fairyland. The Bai Dike original name "iswhite Sand Dike", as early as in more than 1,000 year ago Tang Dynasty,is famous by the sight fluttering flags. It although manages the BaiDike with Bai Ju which constructs not in a position, but the Hangzhoupeople for cherish the memory of this to make the brilliantcontribution to Hangzhou "senior mayor", still named it as the BaiDike. It manages the construction with Su Dongpo the Soviet dike justlike in the lake two brocades belt, gorgeous is varied, enhances oneanothers beauty. Everybody looked again that, the Bai Dike middlethis bridge is called the brocade belt bridge, before is the placewooden bridge, in the name "contains the blue bridge", now changes thename as the stone arch bridge. In Bai Dikes terminus, to mediated thebridge, the span 1 kilometer Bai Dike from this but "breaks".

Breaks the bridge the name most early to take to the Tang Dynasty, theSong synonym valuable blessing bridge, Yuan Daiyou name is DuanJiazhi, before is the place mess stained ancient stone bridge. We nowsee this bridge although is the place very ordinary stone arch bridge,but its name and "the Tale of the White Snake" the story relates intogether, thus has become in Xihu a most famous bridge.

西湖

Talks about here, I saw some friends already carefully wereobserving, perhaps you immediately could ask: This bridge has notsimply broken, why has to name "breaks the bridge"? This question letsme explain. Breaks the bridge is famous Xihu one of ten scenery,because breaks the position back city surface mountain which thebridge locates, is in North In the lake and outside a lake minute waterdrop, the field of vision is open, is the winter watches the Xihusnowscape best place. Whenever the auspicious snow first clear, thebridge was open already Ice Disappears the snow, but bridge shady-sideactually or snow gleams white, looked by far, the bridge bodyresembled breaks must breaks, "broke the bridge remnant snow"therefore to acquire fame. Also, breaks the bridge also is Bai Dikesend point, comes the Bai Dike from the Pinghu harvest moon to reachthis point the severance. Talks about here, perhaps everybody alreadyunderstood, originally was "the dike breaks the bridge to beunceasing".

Fellow friends: The Xihu coast landscape introduced here, meets us towatch in the lake three islands.

First we look at in Xihu most Oshima "Three deep pools India month", also calls thesmall sea state. This is "in the lake has the island, in the islandhas the lake" in the lake the garden. The entire area 70,000 squaremeters, water surface accounts for 60%. The entire island assumes "thefield" the glyph, thing Lian Liudi, the north and south constructs thetune bridge, bends the bridge two sides, plants the big piece red, isbeing white assortedly Rests Lotus.

Next Surface Invites along with me on the island tour, Three deep pools India month thisisland, initially founded an armed force in the the Ming Dynasty Wanli35 years (in 1607), was with the lake putty which scoured piles upbecomes. Its essence lies in south side the island three pinnacles.Please looked that, Three towers stand like a tripod in the lake, thetower height 2 meters, the tower body sphere, is arranging 5 slightlyCircle Hole, the tower goes against assumes the bottle gourd shape, themodelling is exquisite. Every time brings forth the moonlit night,specially arrived the midautumn festival festival, the bright moon inthe sky, the people in the tower 内点 on candle, along mouthMongolia in the flimsy, outside the candlelight pass, by now "thetower shade, the cloud shadow, the month shade" dissolved a piece,"the candlelight, the moonlight, the lake light" enhanced oneanothers beauty, in the light refraction, three towers lightspenetrated 15 Circle Hole projections on the water surface, altogether had30 moon, added the early space in water 1, Lake Surface may produce aninverted image 32 small moon, presented "the day last month a turn, inthe lake the shade became three" the beautiful scenery, Really is"lake liquid gold wants to dissolve the fall", has says endless richin poetic and artistic flavor.

After that us to look again in the lake that upturned eave Curls upwards Anglepavilion, the name calls the mid-lake pavilion. It is in Xihu abiggest pavilion. Also is an island which most early builds in theXihu three islands, initially constructed in the bright Jiajing 31years (in 1552), the distance read had 440 years to have the history."Lake Heart evenly looks into the distance" is money pond one of tenscenery. Stands looks into the distance from a high place Xihu in themid-lake pavilion, 水光 the mountain color, gets a panoramic view,the Xihu scenery, is cover all.

The mid-lake pavilion northwest that island, is called Ruan Gongdun.Is Xihu three islands smallest, the area only 5,561 square meters. Itwas in Qing Dynasty Fine celebrates Year (in 1800), Zhejiang governor RuanYuan after scoured Xihu the silt to pile up becomes. The Ruan pillarfishes has become the Hangzhou resident holiday leisure the gooddestination, Ruan Dunye you Ze is a Xihu summer feature tourismproject which grandly promotes for each place Traveling person.

Swims in the lake three islands, our ship sailed to soon anchors inthe direction ---- Soviet dike. Everybody please looked that, Frontthis but weakly crosses Xihu from the south, in the span 2.8kilometers lakes the causeway is the Soviet dike. In the dikealtogether has 6 bedstones arched bridges, respectively is reflectsthe wave, the lock billows, looks the mountain, the pressure dike,Dongpu, the cross rainbow, the dike planter peach willow tree, thecotton rose, the formation "the Xihu view six bridges, a willow peach"scenery. Speaks of the Soviet dike, the people naturally can rememberNorthern Song Dynastys poet Su Dongpo, the local official which SuDongpo once two time held the post of Hangzhou, he organized 200,000labourers to scour Xihu, then the use lake putty 葑 grass, built thisto go nonstop to Roosts Rosy cloud the range foothill causeway from the southPingshan, the posterity for commemorate his merit, named "the Sovietdike". Now dike South End constructed "the Su Dongpo memorial hall" tovisit for the people, cherishes the memory of Su Dongpo the merit.

Fellow friends: The people frequently Lai Mongolia the lake analogy theHangzhou Xihu and the Swiss Geneva two famous beads which East andWest shines for the world in, is precisely because had Xihu, only thencauses Italy Marco Polo after explains Hangzhou is "in the world themost beautiful magnificent and expensive day city". Xihu does for thefamous scenic spot, receives the various countries state head to becountless. Therefore, Xihu not only is Hangzhous pearl, is Eastspearl, the world pearl.

湖北三峡英文导游词

Good morning, ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome to China! Welcome to Hubei Province!

Today I am very pleased to show you Three Gorges of Yangtze River.

At first I’ll have a brief introduction of Yangtze River, the Yangtze River, the biggest river in China, the third longest in the World, starts with the Tuotuo River at the Roof of the World -Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, takes in countless rivers, and flows eastward across the interior of China. With an overall length of more than 6,300 kilometers, the Yangtze River, next only to the Amazon and the Nile, is the third biggest river in the world and is a cradle that breeds the ancient civilization of the Chinese nation.

When the Yangtze River reaches the eastern Sichuan Basin in southwest China, it cuts through the Wushan Mountain. Here the river course suddenly narrows and the waters become turbulent. Sheer cliffs and steep mountains rise on either side, creating one of natures most fantastic sights. The Three Gorges---Qutang, wuxia and xiling----start just after Fengjie and end near Yichang, stretch about 200 kilometers. The Gorges vary from 300metres at their widest to less than 100 meters at their narrowest.

Qutang Gorge is the smallest and shortest Gorge, but grandest of the three. The Yangtze River, mighty and rapid here is suddenly contained like a thousand seas poured into one cup, as the Song Dynasty poet SU Tungpo described the spectacle. High on the both bank, at a place called Bellows Gorge, are a series of crevices. This area is said to have been the home of an ancient tribe whose custom was to place the coffins of their crevices, some containing bronze swords, armour and other artifacts, but the coffins are believed to date back as far as the Warring States Period (475bc----221BC)

Wu Gorge extends 40 kilometers along which the river snakes between based strange-shaped mountain peaks, each of which has a reputation based on a beautiful legend. The story of the 12 Peaks of Wushan goes like this: 12 nymphs once descended to enjoy themselves in the secular world. Finding how perilous Wushan Gorge was, they decided to stay there to protect ships. As time went by, they transformed themselves into 12 peaks. The Goddess Peak, the most graceful of the 12, is said to have been yaoji, the youngest daughter of the Queen mother of the Western Heaven .Goddess Peak stands out from the other peaks on the northern bank to be the first to greet the morning sun and the last to bid it farewell, hence its another name, Viewing the glow Peak. Seen at a distance, it resembles the silhouette of a beautiful young lady.

Down stream from the zigzagging Wuxia Gorge is Xiling Gorge which stretches 78 kilometers eastward and the cliffs on either side rise to just over 900 meters. Xiling Gorge is awesome with its dangerous rapids, shoals, reefs, sharp turns, billowy whirlpools. The water at one point is so turbulent that it seems to be boiling during the flood season. Xiling Gorge in the east consists of several small gorges. On the top of another is a rock that looks like a sword. On the crag of the north bank are two pieces of brown rock, which are named Bulls Liver and Horse Lung, whose shape they take. Next does the Lantern Shadow Gorge, which has four rocks, resemble Monk Xuan Zang and his three disciples---Monkey, Piggy and Sandy in the classic Chinese adventures of the four on their way to India to obtain Buddhist scriptures.

Around the last bend of Xiling Gorge stretches a vast plain. The river suddenly becomes wide here. Travelers on the Yangtze cruise may also visit many sites of historical and scenic interest along the river banks including the ruined of baidi Town and Precious Stone Village.

Everyone knows that the Yangtze Gorges are changing since the well-known Three Gorges Dam Project is being built at Sabdouping, Yichang, Hubei Province. The dam is 181 meters in height. Its construction investment comes up to 203.9 billion rmb, equals to 24.65 billion U.S. dollars. The installed power generation capacity is expected to be 18.2 million kilo watts. With the dam built, the flood in the Yangtze River valley will be controlled, navigation improved besides the economic benefits. Tourism will be little affected. Many cultural and historical relics are now being removed to a higher ground before the rise of the water level approaches.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the time has gone very quickly and your trip is drawing to a close. It’s a pity that you cannot stay here any longer. Please allow me, then, take this opportunity to thank you for your cooperation and understanding, and if you come back in the future, I hope to see you again and be your guide again.

北京故宫英文导游词

(In front of the meridian gate)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am pleased to serve as your guide today.

This is the palace museum; also know as the Purple Forbidden City. It is the largest and most well reserved imperial residence in China today. Under Ming Emperor Yongle, construction began in 1406. It took 14years to build the Forbidden City. The first ruler who actually lived here was Ming Emperor Zhudi. For five centuries thereafter, it continued to be the residence of23 successive emperors until 1911 when Qing Emperor Puyi was forced to abdicate the throne .In 1987, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization recognized the Forbidden City was a world cultural legacy.

It is believed that the Palace Museum, or Zi Jin Cheng (Purple Forbidden City), got its name from astronomy folklore, The ancient astronomers divided the constellations into groups and centered them around the Ziwei Yuan(North Star). The constellation containing the North Star was called the Constellation of Heavenly God and star itself was called the purple palace. Because the emperor was supposedly the son of the heavenly gods, his central and dominant position would be further highlighted the use of the word purple in the name of his residence. In folklore, the term ”an eastern purple cloud is drifting” became a metaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud was seen drifting eastward immediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher, LaoZi, to the Hanghu Pass. Here, purple is associated with auspicious developments. The word jin (forbidden) is self-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-limits to ordinary people.

The red and yellow used on the palace walls and roofs are also symbolic. Red represents happiness, good fortune and wealth. Yellow is the color of the earth on the Loess Plateau, the original home of the Chinese people. Yellow became an imperial color during the Tang dynasty, when only members of the royal family were allowed to wear it and use it in their architecture.

The Forbidden City is rectangular in shape. It is 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meter wide from east west. It has 9,900 rooms under a total roof area 150,000 square meters .A 52-meter-wide-moat encircles a 9.9-meter—high wall which encloses the complex. Octagon —shaped turrets rest on the four corners of the wall. There are four entrances into the city: the Meridian Gate to the south, the Shenwu Gate(Gate of Military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate(Gate of military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate(Western Flowery Gate )to the west ,the Donghua (Eastern Flowery Gate) to the east.

Manpower and materials throughout the country were used to build the Forbidden City. A total of 230,000 artisans and one million laborers were employed. Marble was quarried from fangshan Country Mount Pan in Jixian County in Hebei Province. Granite was quarried in Quyang County in Hebei Province. Paving blocks were fired in kilns in Suzhou in southern China. Bricks and scarlet pigmentation used on the palatial walls came from linqing in Shandong Province .Timber was cut ,processed and hauled from the northwestern and southern regions.

The structure in front of us is the Meridian Gate. It is the main entrance to the forbidden City. It is also knows as Wufenglou(Five-Phoenix Tower). Ming emperors held lavish banquets here on the 15th day of the first month of the Chinese lunar year in hornor of their counties .They also used this place for punishing officals by flogging them with sticks.

Qing emperors used this building to announce the beginning of the new year. Qing Emperor Qianglong changed the original name of this announcement ceremony from ban li(announcement of calendar)to ban shou(announcement of new moon )to avoid coincidental association with another Emperor` s name, Hongli, which was considered a taboo at that time. Qing Dynasty emperors also used this place to hold audience and for other important ceremonies. For example,when the imperial army returned victoriously from the battlefield ,it was here that the Emperor presided over the ceremony to accept prisoners of war.

(After entering the Meridian Gate and standing in front of the Five Marble Bridges on Golden Water River)

now we are inside the Forbidden City.Before we start our tour, I would like to briefly introduce you to the architectural patterns befour us .To complete this solemn, magnificent and palatial complex, a variety of buildings were arranged on a north-south axis, and 8-kilometer-long invisible line that has become an inseparable part of the City of Beijing. The Forbidden City covers roughly one –third of this central axis. Most of the important building in the Forbidden City weree arranged along this line. The design and arrangement of the palaces reflect the solemn dignity of the royal court and rigidly –stratified feudal system.

The Forbidden City is divided into an outer and an inner count.We are now standing on the southernmost part of the outer count. In front of us lies the Gate of supreme Harmony .The gate is guarded by a pair of bronze lions ,symbolizing imperial power and dignity. The lions were the most exquisite and biggest of its kind. The one on the east playing with a ball is a male, and ball is said to represent state unity. The other one is a female. Underneath one of its fore claws is a cub that is considered to be a symbol of perpetual imperial succession. The winding brook before us is the Golden Water River. It functions both as decoration and fire control .The five bridges spanning the river represent the five virtues preached by Confucius :benevolence, righteousness, rites, intellence and fidelity. The river takes the shape of a bow and the north-south axis is its arrow. This was meant to show that the Emperors ruled the country on behalf of God.

(In front of the Gate of Supreme Harmony)

The Forbidden City consists of an outer countyard and an inner enclosure. The out count yard covers a vast space lying between the Meridian Gate and the Gate of Heavenly Purity. The “three big halls” of Supreme Harmony, Complete Harmony and Preserving Harmony constitute the center of this building group. Flanking them in bilateral symmetry are two groups of palaces: Wenhua (Prominent Scholars) and Wuying (Brave Warriors) . The three great halls are built on a spacious “H”-shaped, 8-meter-high, triple marble terrace, Each level of the triple terrace is taller than the on below and all are encircled by marble balustrades carved with dragon and phoenix designs. There are three carved stone staircases linking the three architectures .The hall of supreme Harmony is also the tallest and most exquisite ancient wooden-structured mansion in all of China. From the palace of Heavenly Purith northward is what is known as the inner court, which is also built in bilaterally symmetrical patterns. In the center are the Palace of Heavenly Purity, the Hall of Union and Peace and Palace of Earthly Tranquility, a place where the Emperors lived with their families and attended to state affairs. Flanking these structures are palaces and halls in which concubines and princes lived. There are also three botanical gardens within the inner count, namely, the imperial Garden, Caning garden and Quailing garden. An inner Golden Water River flows eastwardly within the inner court. The brook winds through three minor halls or palaces and leads out of the Forbidden City. It is spanned by the White Jade Bridge. The river is lined with winding, marble –carved balustrades. Most of the structures within the Forbidden City have yellow glazed tile roofs.

Aside from giving prominence to the north-south axis, other architectural methods were applied to make every group of palatial structures unique in terms of terraces, roofs, mythical monsters perching on the roofs and colored, drawing patterns. With these, the grand contour and different hierarchic spectrum of the complex were strengthened. Folklore has it that there are altogether 9,999 room-units in the Forbidden City. Since Paradise only has 10,000 rooms, the Son of Heaven on earth cut the number by half a room. It is also rumoured that this half –room is located to the west of the Wenyuange Pavilion (imperial library). As a matter of fact, although the Forbidden City has more than 9,000 room-units, this half-room is nonexistent .The Wenyuange Pavilion is a library where “Si Ku Quan Shu”- China `s first comprehensive anthology-was stored.

(After walking past the Gate of Supreme Harmony)

Ladies and Gentlemen, the great hall we are approaching is the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the biggest and tallest of its king in the Forbidden City. This structure covers a total building space of 2,377 square meters, and is know for its upturned, multiple counterpart eaves . The Hall of Supreme Harmony sits on a triple “H”-shaped marble terrace the is 8meters high and linked by staircases. The staircase on the ground floor has 21 steps while the middle and upper stairways each have 9.

The construction of the Hall of Supreme Harmony began in 1406. It burned down three times and was severely damaged once during a mutiny. The existing architecture was built during the Qing Dynasty. On the corners of the eaves a line of animal-nails were usually fastened to the tiles. These animal-nails were later replace with mythical animals to ward off evil spirits. There are altogether 9 such fasteners on top of this hall. The number nine was regarded by the ancients to be the largest numeral accessible to man and to which only the emperors were entitled.

There was a total of 24 successive emperors during the Ming and Qing dynasties who were enthroned here. The ball was also used for ceremonies which marked other great occasions: the Winter Solstice, The Chinese Lunar New Year, the Emperor` s birthday, conferral of the title of empress, the announcement of new laws and policies, and dispatches of generals to war .On such occasions, the Emperor would hold audience for his court officials and receive their tributes.

This area is called the Hall of Supreme Harmony Square, which covers a total of 30,000 square meters, Without a single tree or plant growing here, this place inspires visitors to feel its solemnity and grandeur. In the middle of the square there is a carriageway that was reserved for the Emperor. On both sides of the road the groud bricks were laid in a special way seven layers lengthwise and eight layers crosswise, making up fifteen layers in all. The purpose of this was to prevent anyone from tunneling his way into the palace. In the count yard there are iron vats for storing water to fight fires. In the whole complex there are altogher 308 water vats. In wintertime, charcoal was burned underneath the vats to keep the water from freezing .Why so vast a square? It was designed to impress people with the hall` s grandeur and vastness. Imagine the following scene. Under the clear blue sky, the yellow glazed tiles shimmered as the cloud-like layers of terrace, coupled with the curling veil of burning incense, transformed the hall of supreme Harmony into a fairyland. Whenever major ceremonies were held, the glazed, crane-shaped candleholders inside the hall would be it, and incense and pine branches burnt in front of the hall. When the Emperor appeared, drums were beaten and musical instrument played. Civilian officials and generals would kneel know in submission.

The last Qing emperor Puyi assumed the throne in 1908, at the age of three, His father carried him to the throne. At the start of the coronation, the sudden drum-beating and loud music caught the young emperor unprepared .He was so scared that he kept crying and shouting,”I don’t want to stay here. I want to go home.” His father tried to soothe him, saying, ”It` all soon be finished .It` all soon be finished ”The ministers present at the event considered this incident inauspicious. Coincidentally, the Qing dynasty collapsed three years later and there with concluded China `s feudal system that had lasted for more than 2,000 years.

(On the stone terrace of the Hall of Supreme Harmony)

This is a bronze incense burner. In it incense made of sandalwood would be burnt on important occasions. There are altogether 18 incense burners, representing all of the provinces under the rule of the Sing monarchs. On either side of the Hall, 4 bronze water-filled vats were placed in case of fire. Next to the terrace on either side, there is a bronze crane and tortoise, symbols of longevity. This copper-cast grain measure is called ”jialiang.” It served as the national standard during the Qing dynasty. It was meant to show that the imperial ruler were just and open to rectification. On the other side there is a stone sundial, an ancient timepiece. The jialiang and the sundial were probably meant to show what the Emperor represented: that he was the only person who should possess the standards of both measure and time.

In the very forefront of the Hall of Supreme Harmony , there are 12 scarlet , round pillars supporting the roof. The hall is 63 meters from east to west and 37 meters from north to south, It is 35 meters in height. In front of this architechture, there stands a triple terrace with five staircases leading up to the main entrance .It has 40 gold doors and 16 gold-key windows with colored drawings on the pillars and beams. In the middle of the hall, a throune carved with 9 dragons sits on a 2-meter-high platform. Behind the throne there is a golden screen and in front of it, there is a imperial desk . The flanks are decorated with elephants, Luduan(a legendary beast), cranes, and incense barrels. The elephant carries a vase on its back that holds five cereals(i. e. rice, two kinds of millet, wheat and beans),which was considered a symbol of prosperity. As ancient legend has it that luduan can travel 18,000 li (9,000 kilometers )in one day and knows all languages and dialects. Only to a wise adjust monarch will this beast be a guardian.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony is also popularly known as Jinluan Dian (gold bell hall or the throne hall). The floor of the hall is laid with bricks that turn it into a smooth, fine surface as if water has been sprinkled on it .The so-called golden brick, in fact, has nothing to do with gold. Reserved exclusively for the construction of the royal court, it was made in a secretive, and complex way, and, when struck, sounds like the clink of a gold bar. Each brick was worth the market price of one dan (or one hectoliter ) of rice.

The hall is supported by a total of 72 thick pillars .Of these, 6 are carved in dragon patterns and painted with gold and surround the throne. Above the very center of this hall there is a zaojing, or covered ceiling, which is one of the Specialities of China `s ancient architure. In the middle of the ceiling is a design of a dragon playing with a ball inlaid with peals. This copper ball, hollow inside and covered with mercury, is known as the Xuanyuan Mirror and is thought to be made Xuanyuan, a legendary monarch dating back to remote antiquity. The placing of the caisson above the throne is meant to suggest that all of China` s successive emperors are Zuanyuan` s descendants and hereditary heirs. Now you might have noticed that the Xuanyuan mirror is not directly above the throne. Why? It is rumored that Yuan Shikai, a self-acclaimed warlord-turned emperor moved the throne further back because he was afraid that the mirror might fall on him .In 1916 when Yuan Shikai became emperor, he removed the original throne with a Western-style, high-back chair. After the foundation of the People` s Republic of China in 1949 the throne was found in a shabby furniture warehouse. It repaired and returned to the hall.

(Leading the tourist to the bronze vats either on the east or the west)

the water vats in front of the palaces or house were called “menhai,” or sea before the door by the ancient Chinese. They believed that with a sea by the door, fire could not wreak havoc. The vats served both as a decoration and as a fire extinguisher. They were kept full of water all year round.

During the Qing Dynasty, they were altogether 308 vats in the palace enclosure. They were made of gilt bronze or iron. Of couse, the gilt bronze vats were of the best quality. When the allied forces (Britain, Germany, France, Russia, the United States, Italy, Japan and Austria) invaded Beijing in 1900 under the pretext of suppressing the Boxer Rebellion, the invaders ransacked the imperial compound and scraped and gold off the vats with their bayonets. During the Japanese occupation of Beijing, many vats were trucked away by the Japanese to be made into bullets .

(In front of the Hall of Complete Harmony)

The square architecture before us is called the Hall of Complete Harmony. It served as an antechamber. The Emperor came here to meet with his countiers and add his final touches to the prayers which would be read at the ancestral Temple. The seeds, snowers and prayer intended for spring sowing were also examined here. The two Qing sedan chairs here on display were used for traveling within the palace during the reign of Emperor Qianlong.

(In front of the hall f Preserving Harmony)

this is the Hall of Preserving Harmony. During the Qing Dynasty, banquets were held here on New Year` s eve in honour of Mongolian and Northwestern China` s xingjiang princes and ranking officials. The Emperor also dinned here with his new son-in-law on the wedding day. Imperial examinations were also held here once every three years. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were three levels of exams: the county and prefectural level, the provincial level and national level. The national exam was presided over by the emperor. The civil service exam in ancient China started during the Han Dynasty. It served the purpose of recruiting Confucian scholars to the ministers and high officials. During the Tang and Qing dynasties reinstituted and ancient system. Once every three years, three hundred scholars from all over the country came to Beijing and took exams for three day and night. This system was abolished in 1905.

(Behind the hall of preserving harmony)

this is the largest stone carving in the palace . It is 16.73 meters long, 3.07 meters wide and 1.7 meters thick .It weighs about 200 tons. The block was quarried in Fangshan County, roughly 70 kilometers away. To transport such a huge block to Beijing, laborers dug wells along the roadside half a kilometer apart, and used the groundwater to make a road of ice in the winter. Rolling blocks were used in the summer. In 1760, Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty ordered the carving of the existing cloud and dragon design in place of the old one which dated back to the Ming Dynasty.

Note : From here, the tour can be conducted via three different routes: a western route(Route A), a central route (Route B) or an eastern route (Route C) .The commentary for each follows.

Route A

Ladies and Gentlemen:

You have seen the three main halls of the Forbidden City. Now I ` d like to show you around the hall of mental cultivation and the imperial garden . The hall of mental cultivation is situated is in the western part of the innermost enclosure and is symmetrical to Fengxian (enshrinement of forebears) Hall in the east. This hall was built during the Ming Dynasty. IT is a H-shaped structure consisting of an antechamber and a main building .The hall is surrounded by corridors. In front of the hall is the Office of Privy Council.

Before Emperor Kangxi of Qing the Dynasty came to power the Hall of Heavenly Purity served as the living quarter of the emperors. Emperor Yongzheng chose to live in this hall and attended to every day state affairs from here .For the sake of protecting cultural relics, this hall is not open to the public .You can have a look at the inside from the door. The central hall was the audience chamber where the emperor read memorials, granted audience to officials and summoned his minsters for consultation. The western chamber of the hall was where the emperor read reports and discussed military and political affairs. The hall consists of many inner rooms and is decorated with images of Buddha and miniature pagodas. On the screen wall there hangs a picture of two emperors in the Han costume. In a southern room there three rare calligraphic scrolls, hence the name of the room “Sanxitang” (Room of Three Rare Treasures) . The room on the eastern side is of historical interst because it was here that Empress Dowager Cixi usurped power and made decisions on behalf of the young emperor . A bamboo curtain was used to separate them .

Empress Dowage Cixi was born in 1835 in Lu` an Prefecture of shanxi province. She` s of Manchurian nationality and her father was a provincial governor from south China. When she was 17 years old ,she was selected to become a concubine of Emperor Xianfeng and moved into the Forbidden City. She gave birth to a son when she was 21years old and was made a concubine the following year. When the emperor passed away in the summer of 1861, her son ascended the throne and title of Cixi, meaning “Holy Mother” was conferred upon her and she became the Empress Dowager. In that same year Empress Dowager Cixi carried out a count coup d` etat and ruled behind the scenes with another empress dowager, Ci` an, for 48 years. She passed away in 1908 at the age of 73. It was in reference to this situation that the term “attending to state affairs behind a bamboo curtain” developed .In 1912 , Empress dowager Longyu declared the abdication of the last Qing emperor Puyi. They were allowed to remain in the Forbidden City for the next 13 years .The royal family was forced to move out permanently in 1924.

Behind the central hall were the living accommodation of 8 successive Qing emperors .Three of them actually passed away here. The side rooms flanking the hall were reserved for empresses and concubines. Now let` s continue with our tour. It will take us to the Hall of heavenly purity , the hall of union and peace ,the palace of earthly tranquility, and the imperial garden.

Route B

(Inside the Hall of heavenly Purity)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are now entering the inner court. From the Gate of Heavenly Purity northward lies the inner court where the emperors and empresses once lived .The Hall of heavenly Purity is the central hall of the inner court ,and was completed during the Reign of Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty. There are 10 pillars supporting the entire structure and the hall is 20 meters in height .In the center of the hall there a throne. Above it hangs a plaque with an inscription that reads “Be open and above-board,” written by Shenzhi,the first emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Beginning with Qianlong` s reign, the name of the successor to the throne was not publicly announced .instead, it was written on two pieces of paper, one to be kept on the emperor` s person throughout his reign, and the other placed in a small strongbox that was stored behind his plaque. The box was opened only after the emperor passed away. Altogether there where 4 emperors who ascended the throne in this way, namely Qianlong, Jiaqing, Daohuang and Xian feng.

The hall of heavenly purity was where the emperors lived during the Ming and Qing dynasties. According to tradition ,extravagant annual banquets were held here on New Year` s Eve in honour of royal family members. Foreign ambassadors were received here during the late-Qing period. Two important “one thousand old men` s feasts” of the Qing Dynasty were also held here. All the invitees had to be at least 65 years of age.

This hall was also used for mourning services.

(Inside the Palace of Union and Peace)

this hall sits between the Hall of heavenly Purity and the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, symbolizing the union of heaven and earth ,as well as national peace .It was first built in 1420 and reconstructed in 1798. The hall is square in shape ,and is smaller than the Hall of complete Harmony .You will see a plaque here inscribed with two Chinese characters, wu wei, which were handwritten by Emperor Qianglong. A throne sits in the middle of the hall with a screen behind it .Above the throne there hangs a caisson ,or covered ceiling. The emperor held birthday celebrations and other major events here.

In 1748 during Emperor Qianlong` s reign, 25 jade seals representing imperial authority were kept in this hall .No seals were allowed out of the room without the prior consent of the emperor. On each flack there is a water clock and a chiming clock.

(Inside the palace of earthly tranquility)

This used to be the central hall where successive Ming empresses lived. During the Qing dynasty, it was converted into a place where sacrifices and wedding ceremonies were held .The room on the western side was used for sacrifices and the room on the east was the seeding chamber.

Route C

Ladies and Gentlemen:

You have seen the three main halls of the Forbidden City. Now I` d like to show you around scenes of interest along the eastern route. The first is the Treasure Hall. This mansion is called the Hall of Imperial Zenith. This is where Sing Emperor Quailing lived after abdication. Nearly 1,000 artifacts and treasures are on display here, among which the Golden Hair Tower is one of the most famous. This tower is 1.53meters in height and its base is 0.53 meters in circumference .It was built under the order of Emperor Quailing to be used to collect fallen hair in commemoration of his mother. There is also a “Day harnessing Water Jade Hill ” on display here. Yu was a legendary monarch of the remote Ixia dynasty. Under his leadership, the people learned how to harness the Yellow River. This jade assemblage, 224 centimeters in height and 5 tons in weight, is the largest jade artwork in China. This mat was woven with peeled ivory. These artifacts are among China` s rarest treasures.

(In front of the Nine-Dragon Screen)

this is the Nine-Dragon Relief Screen .Erected in 1773,it is 3.5 meters in height and 29.4 meters in width. Underneath is a foundation made of marble .The surface of the screen is laid with a total of 270 colored, glazed tiles in the design of 9 dragons ,some rocky mountains ,clouds and the sea. It was meant to ward off evil spirits The ancient Chinese regarded 9 dragons, some rocky mountains, clouds and the sea. It was meant to ward off evil spirits .The ancient Chinese regarded 9 as the largest numeral and the dragon as a auspicious beast .The 9 dragons are different in color and posture and all are made of glazed tiles. Interestingly a piece of the third dragon from the left is made of wood. It is believe that when the Nine-dragon Screen was almost finished ,a piece of glazed tile was damaged .Emperor Qianlong was scheduled to inspect the work the following day .Using quick wits, the craftsman in question molded the missing piece with clay and sailed through the imperial inspection. Later ,he asked a carpenter to carve a wooden one to replace the one made of clay.

(Approaching the Imperial Garden)

Behind the Palace of Earthly Tranquility and trading the north-south axis is the imperial Garden. There are old trees, rare flowers and exotic rock formation in this garden .It cover a space of 11,700 square meters, or roughly 1.7 percent of the Forbidden City. Most of the structures in the garden are symmetrically arranged . However, each is different in terms of parrern and decoration. Woods clumps of bamboo screen off the garden and strengthens its deep and serene atmosphere.

There main structure of the Imperial Garden is the Qin` an Hall. Positioned in the central-northern part of the garden ,this hall is flanked by other halls and pavilions on the east and west. The hall sits on a marble pedestal. The Taoist deity of Zhenwu is enshrined here and emperor would pay homage here a quarterly basis. Taoist rites were held during the reign of Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty. In front of the hall there is a cypress that is 400 years old .In all there are a dozen such rare trees in the garden, and most of them are cypresses or pines. To the northwest of the hall , there is the Yanhui(Sustaining Sunshine) Pavilion and to the northeast there lies the Duixiu (Accumulated Refinement )Hill. This Hill was built over the foundation of the long- pershed Guanhua (Admiring Flowers) Hall of the Ming Dynasty. It is 14 meters in height and made of al kinds of rocks quarried in jiang su province. At its base stand two nstone lions, each carrying a dragon shooting water 10 meters up into the air from its mouth. There are meandering paths leading to the hilltop. At the top of Duixiu Hill sits the Yujing (Imperial Viewing)Pavilion. Traditionally, On the day of the Double Ninth Festival (the ninth day of the ninth lunar month ), the emperor ,his consort, and his concubines would climb up to Yujing Pavilion to enjoy the scenery.

At the southeastern corner of the Garden is Jiangxue(Crimson Snowy) Verandah. Nearby to the southwest lies Yangxing Study (study of the cultivation of nature) .The yangxing study was used as a royal library during the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. The last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Puyi once studied English there. In front of the Jiangxue Verandah some Chinese flowering crabapples grow. The structure got its name from the crabapples who blossoms trun from crimson to snowy white. In front of the Verandah, there grows a rare flower that was brought from henna Province under the order of Empress dowager Cixi. In the northest is Chizao Tang (Hall of Using Flowery Language), once used as a library where rare books were stored.

There are also specific pavilions symbolizing the four seasons .The halls of Wanchun and Qianqiu ,representing spring and autumn respectively ,are square in shape and are coupled with multiple eaves and bell-shape and are coupled with multiple eaves and bell-shaped ridges. The halls of Chengrui and Fubi,dedecated to winter and summer, are characterized by two verandahs and bridges at their bases .Paths were paved with colorful pebbles and arranged in 900 different designs.

The Imperial Garden can be accessed through the Qiong yuan (Jade Garden )West gate or the qiong yuan east gate. A third gate, the shunzhen(Obedience and Fidelity)Gate, opens to the north. Its doors are laid in glazed tiles and it was only used by the empress or concubines.

As our tour of the Forbidden City draws to a close, I hope that I have helped you understand why the Palace is a treasure of China and one of the cultural relics of the world. It is under the strict protection of the Chinese government. Since 1949 when the people` s Rupublic of China was founded, nearly one trillion RMB was spent on its restoration and refurbishment. The Forbidden City has undergone four major facelifts to date. Each year, the government earmarks a large sum to gather, sort and study cultural relics. The Palace now contains a total of 930,000cultural relics. Well, so much for today .Let` s go to reboard the coach. Thank you !
