西安大雁塔英文介绍及西安小吃英文翻译[整理]西安大雁塔英文介绍及西安小吃英文翻译[整理] 大雁塔英文介绍As the symbol of the old-line Xian, Big Wild Goose Pagoda is a well-preserved ancient building and a holy place for Buddhists. It is located in the southern suburb of Xian City, about 4 kilometers (2.49 miles) from the downtown of the city. Standing in the Da Ci'en Temple complex, it attracts numerous visitors for its fame in the Buddhist religion, its simple but appealing style of construction, and its new square in front of the temple. It is rated as a National Key Cultural Relic Preserve as well as an AAAA Tourist Attraction.This attraction can be divided into three parts: the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the Da Ci'en Temple, and the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda.Big Wild Goose PagodaOriginally built in 652 during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty (618-907), it functioned to collect Buddhist materials that were taken from India by the hierarch Xuanzang.Xuanzang started off from Chang'an (the ancient Xian), along the Silk Road and through deserts, finally arriving in India, the cradle of Buddhism. Enduring 17 years and traversing 100 countries, he obtained Buddha figures, 657 kinds of sutras, and several Buddha relics. Having gotten the permission of Emperor Gaozong (628-683), Xuanzang, as the first abbot of Da Ci'en Temple, supervised the building of a pagoda inside it. With the support of royalty, he asked 50 hierarchs into the temple to translate Sanskrit in sutras intoChinese, totaling 1,335 volumes, which heralded a new era in the history of translation. Based on the journey to India, he also wrote a book entitled 'Pilgrimage to the West' in the Tang Dynasty, to which scholars attached great importance.First builtto a height of 60 meters (197 feet) with five stories, it is now 64.5 meters (211.6 feet) high with an additional two stories. It was said that after that addition came the saying-'Saving a life exceeds building a seven-storied pagoda'. Externally it looks like a square cone, simple but grand and it is a masterpiece of Buddhist construction. Built of brick, its structure is very firm. Inside the pagoda, stairs twist up so that visitors can climb and overlook the panorama of Xian City from the arch-shaped doors on four sides of each storey. On the walls are engraved fine statues of Buddha by the renowned artist Yan Liben of the Tang Dynasty. Steles by noted calligraphers also grace the pagoda.As for the reason why it is called Big Wild Goose Pagoda, there is a legend. According to ancient stories of Buddhists, there were two branches, for one of which eating meat was not a taboo. One day, they couldn't find meat to buy. Upon seeing a group of big wild geese flying by, a monk said to himself:'Today we have no meat. I hope the merciful Bodhisattva will give us some.' At that very moment, the leading wild goose broke its wings and fell to the ground. All the monks were startled and believed that Bodhisattva showed his spirit to order them to be more pious. They established a pagoda where the wild goose fell and stopped eating meat.Hence it got the name 'Big Wild Goose Pagoda'.Da Ci'en TempleDaCi'en Temple is the home of Big Wild Goose Pagoda. In 648, to commemorate the dead virtuous queen, royalty ordered the building of a temple named 'Ci'en' (Mercy and Kindness), for which the status and scale far exceeded all others. Today, with an area of 32,314 square meters (38,648.5 square yards), one seventh of the original area, itstill retains its grandeur.Before the temple, there stands a statue of hierarch Xuanzang, the meritorious hierarch. Walking on and across a small bridge, visitors will see the gates of the temple. With guarding lions, the temple seems stately for lions were said to function as talismans.Entering the temple you will see two buildings-Bell Tower in the east and Drum T ower in the west. Inside the Bell Tower hangs an iron bell 15 tons (14.76 gross tons) in weight. It was molded in 1548 in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Along the central axis are arranged the Hall of Mahavira, Sermon Hall, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and the Hall of Xuanzang Sanzang. In the Hall of Mahavira are three carved statues of Sakyamuni, and 18 arhats as well as Xuanzang. The Sermon Hall is where Buddhist disciples would listen to a sermon. A bronze statue of Amitabha is dedicated and a Buddha statue is collected by Xuanzang as oblation. The Hall of Xuanzang Sanzang is north of Big Wild Goose Pagoda. In this hall are Xuanzang's relic and a bronze statue of a seated Xuanzang. The inner wall is chiseled with murals depicting this hierarch's story. Renowned as the contemporary Dunhuang Buddhiststorehouse praised by UNESCO, it is the biggest memorial of Xuanzang.North Square of Big Wild Goose PagodaSurrounding Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the scenery is also quite charming, especially the square north of the Da Ci'en Temple. Covering about 110,000 square meters (131563 square yards) plus 20,000 square meters (23920.6 square yards) of water area, it holds many records: in Asia, it is the biggest Tang-culture square, the biggest fountain and waterscape square, and the largest-scale sculptures area.

When it comes to Xi'an's cuisine, the first thing that comes to mind is the famous Xi'an cuisine – Biang Biang noodles. 说到西安美食,第一件让人想到的就是著名的西安美食-油泼面。
The Biang Biang noodles are named after the sound made when the dough is hand-pulled, creating wide, chewy noodles that are served with a spicy and savory sauce. 油泼面之所以得名,是因为面团被手工拉制时发出的声音,制成的宽面条配上香辣酱汁,口感十分Q弹。
In addition to Biang Biang noodles, Xi'an is also renowned for its mouth-watering dumplings, known as "Jiaozi" in Chinese. 除了油泼面,西安还以其令人垂涎的饺子而闻名,中文称为“饺子”。

Distant vast China civilization makes everyone first thepeople who arrives at Shaanxi not excavate heart profundity meditating on the past conscientiouslyXi'an, the capital city of Shaanxi Province, is located in thecentral area of northwest China. It sits on an ancient site and there are layers of cities of different names beneath and around the city. The land is fertile, renewed yearly by the silt from the Yellow River. Since the age of the nomads, people have settled in this rich land to take advantage of the relatively flat landscape, plentiful water, and ease of travel.As one of the ancient capitals of China, it served 12 imperial dynasties for over a thousand years. Today, Xi'an is a treasure house of historical relics and cultural heritage.Xian was called Chang'an in the Han Dynasty, which literally means a place of permanent peace. The city was renamed Xi'an in 1369. From the 11 century B.C. onwards, Xi'an was the capital city of 11 successive dynasties, including the Western Zhou, the Qin, the Han, the Sui and the Tang dynasties; in addition Xi'an had also served as the capital of two peasant regimes, under the rule of Huang Chao and Li Zicheng. The city's capital status lasted for 1,608 years.Indeed, Xi'an has made an unparalleled contribution to the history and culture of China. For more than a millennium, it was the stage on which the histories of more than a dozen Chinese dynasties unfolded.Every move and every action originating from Xi'an had a far-reaching influence on the course of China's social development.It is where, three thousand years ago, the aristocrats of the Zhou dynasty instituted rites and composed music, while offering libations to gods and ancestors and feasting themselves out of bronze utensils. It is where, two thousand years ago, the Qin army eliminated six rival states and initiated the first centralized autocracy, which started off a 20 century-long imperial history in China and exerted a far-reaching influence on subsequent dynasties.Xi'an was the starting point of the famous Silk Road when the pathto wealth emerged during the Han dynasty; and reached its historical apex during the flourishing and prosperous Tang Dynasty 1300 years ago. Many historians believe that the Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty was one of the largest cities in the world; and for thousands of international traders and merchants, Chang'an was a promising land full of fortune.The English word "China" is a transliteration of the Chinese ideogram meaning "Qin". Those who live in and around Xi'an are direct descendents of the Qin people. Emperors chose Xi'an as their capital partly because of its fertile land and sufficient water supply andpartly because it was militarily formidable, because of the mountains that skirted it. It is precisely because of its somewhat isolated location that Xi'an was able to preserve so much of its history and culture to this day.The local dialect of Xi'an and the Guanzhong Plain is reflective of the rhythm and timbre of archaic Chinese. Weddings, funerals, celebrations, diet, and social etiquette are all evocative of the social mores and traditions of the dynasties of the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang.So it's no wonder that some say Xi'an is the historical center of China today. An ancient philosopher once mused that all those seeking the truth should go to China; and a contemporary philosopher consolidated it with that no visit to China is complete without a journey to Xi'an.Today, the rich historical and cultural heritage of Xi'an is visible through a wealth of cultural relics, museums, and historical sites including the world-famous terracotta warriors of Emperor Qin Shi Huang. The flat plane on the city's outskirts is strewn with the tomb mounds of emperors, empresses, aristocrats, ranking officials and scholars from ancient times. The remains of past civilizations are evidence of every major epoch in China's half a million year history. The history apparent in Xian is so ancient and continuous that the city has no parallel anywhere as a cultural site.In Xi'an you will find yourself in a world of amazing artifacts. You can visit the sites once inhabited by China's primitive people; admire the bronze wares manufactured in the Bronze Age; wander through the city ruins of the Qin, Han, Sui and Tang Dynasties; imagine the hustle and bustle of the old Oriental metropolis; you can go to explore theimperial tombs of the Qin, Han and Tang Dynasties, testimony to thepervasive power of the feudal ruling class; you can also wander through temples and pagoda courtyards, tracing vestiges of the Silk Road; and study stone inscriptions to appreciate Chinese calligraphy. Not least, the site of the spectacular army of terracotta warriors and horses from the tomb of China's First Emperor, Qin Shihuang, is amust-see in your trip in Xi'an.0. 西安地理位置1. Xi'an lies on the Guanzhong Plain in central China, on a flood plain createdby the eight surrounding rivers and streams. The Wei River provides potable waterto the city.2. The city borders the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains to the south, andthe banks of the Wei River to the north.

Land of thousands miles and rich in harvest can be found here, as if this place is belongs to the nation of the heaven.关中左崤函, 右陇蜀, 沃野千里, 此所谓金城千里, 天府之国也《史记?留侯世家》)1.秦始皇兵马俑The Terracotta Army or the "Terra Cotta Warriors and Horses", is a collection of terracotta sculptures depicting the armies of Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China. It is a form of funerary art buried with the emperor in 210–209 BC and whose purpose was to protect the emperor in his afterlife, and to make sure that he had people torule over.The figures, dating from 3rd century BC, were discovered in 1974 by some local farmers in Lintong District, Xi'an, Shaanxi province.The figures vary in height according to their roles, with thetallest being the generals. The figures include warriors, chariots and horses. Current estimates are that in the three pits containing the Terracotta Army there were over 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses, the majority of which are still buried in the pits near by Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum. Other terracotta non-military figures were also found in other pits and they include officials, acrobats, strongmen and musicians.2.大雁塔As the symbol of the old-line Xian, Big Wild Goose Pagoda is a well-preserved ancient building and a holy place for Buddhists.

The original CityBellTower was constructed in 1582 and situated in the west, but on its reconstruction in 1739, the tower was relocated to its present site. A Ming dynasty bell weighing approximately 14.76 tons hangs in the tower, but no longer chimes to inform residents of the time of day. Visitors have the chance to inspect up-close a number of smaller bells. Although the site itself is more of a landmark than an attraction, it is frequently enlivened with local performances.

The other notable pagoda is the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, originally built in 652 and restored in 704. The Small Wild Goose Pagoda was built between 707–709, during the Tang Dynasty under Emperor Zhongzong of Tang (r 705–710). The pagoda stood 45 m (147 ft) until the 1556 Shaanxi earthquake. The earthquake shook the pagoda and damaged it so that it now stands at a height of 43 m (141 ft) with fifteen levels of tiers.[1] The pagoda has a brick frame built around a hollow interior, and its square base and shape reflect the building style of other pagodas from the era.[1] During the Tang Dynasty, the Small Wild Goose Pagoda stood across a street from its mother temple, the Dajianfu Temple. Pilgrims brought sacred Buddhist writings to the temple and pagoda from India, as the temple was one of the main centers in Chang'an for translating Buddhist texts.[1] The temple was older than the pagoda, since it was founded in 684, exactly 100 days after the death of Emperor Gaozong of Tang (r. 649–683).[1] Emperor Zhongzong had donated his residence to the building of a new temple here, maintaining the temple for 200 monks in honor of his deceased father Gaozong.[1] The temple was originally called the Daxianfusi or Great Monastery of Offered Blessings by Zhongzong, until it was renamed Dajianfusi byEmpress Wu Zetian in 690.华浑池Huaqing Hot SpringsHuaqing Hot Springs, also known as HuaqingPalace, is a well-known historic site and an AAAAA tourist attraction of China. It gets its fame for being the place where the romantic story of Emperor Tangxuanzong of Tang Dynasty (618-907) and his beloved Yang Guifei (or Concubine Yang) took place. As a matter of fact, the site had been as an imperial palace for emperors' short stays away from the capital for more than 3000 years. Emperors of Zhou, Qin, Han, Sui and Tang dynasties spent the winter at this place every year. Emperor Zhouyouwang of Western Zhou Dynasty (1046BC-771BC) is said to be the first emperor who ordered to build a palace at the site. In the following dynasties, the palace was repaired and expanded for several times, given the name of "Hot Spring Palace" and finally denominated "HuaqqingPalace" by Emperor Tangxuanzong. The palace was constructed above hot springs, hence the site is also called "Huaqing Hot Springs".法门寺The Famen TempleFamenTemple, renowned for storing the veritable Finger Bone of the Sakyamuni Buddha, is located in Fufeng County of Shaanxi Province. FamenTemple was established in theEastern Han Dynasty (25--220) for spreading Buddhism. The most representative structures in the temple are the Famen Temple Pagoda and FamenTempleMuseum. Many royal treasures and jewelry were found here. But why? FamenTemple was the royal temple during the Sui Dynasty (581-618) and Tang Dynasty. Emperors in Sui and Tang believed that enshrining and worshiping the bone of Sakyamuni would bring richness and peace to the land and its people. So an offering of treasure to the finger bone was made, which was housed in the UndergroundPalace.壶心瀑布Hukou WaterfallThe Hukou waterfall on the Huanghe River west of Jixian County, Shanxi, is formed when the river flows to the Hukou Mountains on the Shanxi-Shaanxi border and its 250-meter-wide bed, sandwiched between the canyons on its banks, abruptly narrows into a trough 50 meters wide and 30 meters deep and falls down into a big stone-strewn pool. The section of the river here is like the mouth of a water-flash. Hence the name of the waterfall, which means “Flask Mouth waterfall”. The waterfall has a descent of 15-20 meters in the low-water season, but it is scarcely noticeable as a waterfall in the high –water season when the waters burst into rapid torrents. The section isrich in hydroelectric power potential陕西履历专物馆Xi'an: ShanxiHistoryMuseumOne thing surprising at the ShaanxiProvincialHistoryMuseum was the fact that it is possible, even expected, to bargain for the items sold at the gift shops. One would assume that a museum would have fixed prices. It turns out that ithe prices provide are only the starting price. You should bargain for everything you buy at the gift shop. You can expect to save at least 50%, possibly more.大唐芙蓉园Lotus palace of Tang Dynasty (Tang Paradise) Tang Paradise lies in the Qujiang New District, Xi’An City, ShannxiProvince, with 66.7 hectares building areas and 20 hectares of lake areas inside.
