南京英文导游词
Zhonghua GateZhonghua Gate is the south gate of Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. It is the biggest castle-style city gate in China and one of the most complicated castles in the world. It is the castle’s magnificent scale, delicate structure and the great skill with which it was built that make it an important place in China’s military and architectural tradition.Zhonghua Gate was completed in 1386 and was the biggest among the 13 gate. It was formally called Ju Bao Gate. There is a legend of this. It is said that when Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of Ming Dynasty, built the gate, the ground kept sinking and the gate collapsed again and again. It was not until a treasure bowl was buried under the gate that it stood firm.Zhonghua Gate was an architecturally complex structure composed of three closed courtyard and four arched doors serving as the entrance. Each one has a double paneled wooden door and additional vertically-sliding stone door set behind which were lifted and dropped with the help of a special mechanical winch. However, what remained now is only the deep trough instead of the stone door. Judging from the trough which is 17-cm deep and 23-cm wide, the stone door was quite large.The first entrance to the gate is the three-storeyed building in which 27 hiding caves for soldiers are built which are spacious enough to hold 3,000 soldiers and store large quantities of food and weapons. There is a ramp for horses on either side leading to the top of the wall. There was s Watching Tower on the top, but it fell down in Qing Dynasty.The entire structure was built with massive bricks mortared together with special cement made form lime, sticky rice juice and tung oil. In order to guarantee the quality of the construction, every brick underwent a strict quality control process. The brick makers and builders were ordered to mark their names on each brick. This is one of the reasons why the condition of the gate remains so remarkably good today.Zhonghua Gate has gone through wind and rain for more than 600 years. As the biggest among similar constructions in China, it provides valuable data for the study of ancient city wall involving military purpose. It has been listed as a key monument for national preservation since 1988.The Presidential Palace (中轴+东线)The history of The Presidential Palace dates back to 600 years ago. It once served as the mansion of the Marquis of Guide and prince of Han in early Ming Dynasty, Liangjiang Governor-general’s Yamen, a temporary dwelling Palace of emperor Kangxi and Qianlong in Qing Dynasty, Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Palace, Nationalist Government etc.The Presidential Palace can be divided into 3 sections: the central area, the eastern part and western part. Let’s start from the central area.The Gate Tower was built in 1930. It is a two-storeyed building with 3 arch-gates in an imitation of ancient Rome style. It used to be the guardroom during the period of Republic of China.Getting through the Gate Tower, a magnificent building with typical Chinese style stands infront of us. The inner horizontal board is inscribed with Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s handwriting “The Whole World as one Community”. This is the Grand Hall(大堂), serving as the hall for the inauguration ceremony of the provisional president for Dr. Sun Yat-sen. The auditorium is on the left where Chiang Kai-shek’s presidential inauguration was held in 1948.The Second Row of Houses(Central Row of Houses中堂) was built in the late Qing Dynasty and was used as the Inner Palace Chamber(内宫) of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and served as the place for receiving foreign ambassadors during the Republican period.Passing through the phototaking place and reception room, we will see the Chinese Unicorn Gate(麒麟门) with two Chinese Unicorns on each side of the gate. The gate with two bright red planks was usually closed and only open for Chiang Kai-shek.Continuing forward with the corridor, we will come to the National and Presidential Government Office Building(国民政府与总统府办公楼) which was also called Zichao Building. It includes the offices of the president, vice president and secretary-general etc.东线Eastern garden consists of many attractions. At the north of the South Lake, there is an ancient-imitated structure in 6 rows of houses. The first four rows have been turned to be a display of the history of late Qing Dynasty and Republic of China(1840-1949). The 5th row is arranged to be the military band of The Presidential Palace and the 6th row is the stable.At the west of the garden stands the history museum of the Liangjiang Governor-general’s Yamen. The exhibition falls into 4 parts: 1, the governor’s Flower Hall for lounge and reception; 2, traces of the Liangjiang Governor-general’s Yamen; 3, modern famous governors; 4, the imitated grand hall of the Liangjiang Governor-general’s Yamen.At the right side of the museum is the Tao and Lin Ancestral Temple(陶临二公祠) where clansmen offeredsacrifices to their ancestors as well as great men of both ancient and more recent times.In the north of the museum is the historical relic’s exhibition of Hong Xiuquan and Taiping Heavenly Kingdom’s Palace(洪秀全与天朝宫殿历史文物陈列). The exhibition shows the related historical relics and documents of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.To the right of the exhibition hall there is a courtyard. It is the site of the Executive Office. There are two office buildings. The north building displays historical materials about the Five-power system and the south building consists of offices including presidents of the Executive office, the secretary-general and director of the Political Affairs Department etc.The Presidential Palace witnessed changes in the four historical periods of Ming & Qing Dynasty, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Republic of China. it becomes a vivid text book on China’s modern history.The Presidential Palace (中轴+西线)The history of The Presidential Palace dates back to 600 years ago.

First, we will see a small building. It is Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s Residence and Guard Room. In front of it is Taiping Lake, looking like a huge vase. On the open terrace in the north lake stands Yilan Pavilion(漪澜阁). In the middle of its roof there is a gourd(葫芦) which was said to be a treasured water vessel for putting out fires. This was the only way for Dr. Sun Yat-sen to walk between his residence and office.On the west bank of the lake is the exhibition hall of Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s life and work.

A stone tablet carved with Tao Shu’s thank-you memorial to the emperor Daoguang was also in the pavilion. So it was also called “Yin Xin Shi Wu” Tablet Pavilion.In the Southeast of West Garden stands a Poem Tablet with a well known poem “Mooring by Maple Bridge at Night”.The presidential palace witnessed changes in the four historical periods of Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Republic of China. it becomes a vivid text book on China’s modern history.Nanjing Confucius Temple夫子庙+学宫夫子庙Most of the buildings in Confucius Temple were rebuilt and renovated in the mid-1980s and 1990s and the area becomes a tourist site to understand traditional Chinese culture as well as to enjoy shopping.

The Imperial Examination was initiated in Sui Dynasty and was abolished in 1905, with a history of 1,300 years.Now a specialized museum on the imperial examination system is built here, which claims to be the only specialized exhibition in China.Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s MausoleumAmong all the historical and cultural attractions in Nanjing, the most favored one is Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s Mausoleum. It sits on the southern slop of the Purple Mountain in the eastern suburban of the city.Dr. Sun Yat-sen was a great forerunner of the Chinese democratic revolution.

There are only 24 Chinese characters carved on the stele and no epitaph as people think that there are no words capable of representing this giant of modern China.The Sacrificial Hall is the major part of the Mausoleum. Six Chinese Characters are inscribed on the lintels of the Sacrificial Hall “Nationalism, People Livelihood and Democratic Right”.Entering the hall, a 4.6-meter-high Italian white marble statue of Dr. Sun Yat-sen is set in the center. He is wearing long gown, facing forward and with an open book on his lap, demonstrating the wisdom of the great thinker.The coffin-chamber is hemispherical in shape with the marble coffin of Dr. Sun Yat-sen set in the center of the chamber.

Emperor Taizu, Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of Ming Dynasty and Queen Ma were buried there. She was bestowed the title “Queen of Xiaoci”which means filial piety. Hence the name derives from her title.At the entrance to the mausoleum, there is a Dismounting Archway. As a gesture of deep respect, visitors would dismount their horses and sedans at this point.Not far away from the entrance is the Tablet Pavilion called “Si Fang Cheng”(Square City). Here a majestic tablet was erected by order of Emperor Zhu Di to eulogize his father’s merits and virtues. It is called “The Stele of Sacred Merits and Virtues” and is carried by BIXi, a legendary animal in the shape of a tortoise.Behind the Tablet Pavilion and passing through the Yuhe Bridge is the Sacred Way which is lined on both sides with 12 pairs of giant animals: Lions, Xiezhi, Camels, Elephants, Unicorns and Horses.Continuing along the Sacred Way, you will reach the main body of the mausoleum. After the Jinshui Bridge, you will arrive at the gate named Wen Wu Archway. A special notice at the foot of the gate was carved in six languages notifying the importance of Xiaoling Tomb of the Ming Dynasty. Japanese, German, Italian, English, French and Russian.Inside the gate is the Imperial Tablet Hall(碑殿). Emperor Kangxi Wrote 4 Chinese Characters: “治隆唐宋”(running the state even better than Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty and Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty, two successful emperors in Chinese history).Next you will arrive at Xiang Hall, the main structure of the mausoleum. Figures of Taizu and Queen Ma are hanging inside on the wall.Then through the Inner Red Gate(内红门), you will come to Fang Cheng the south wall of which was carved with 7 Chinese characters meaning “this hill is the tomb of Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty”.Here is divided into 2 paths, one is leading up to the Ming Tower, the other leads to Baocheng which refers to the wall around the tomb.

On the lintel are four Chinese characters “wonderful scenery of Linggu” written by Qian Songyan.Passing through the gate and going straight forward, you will see a 10-meter high and 5-arch Paifang. The memorial archway in memory of the officers and soldiers of National Revolutionary Army killed in the war. The horizontal board above the middle gate is engraved with “Benevolence and Righteousness”(大仁大义) while its back is carved with “Save the Nation and the People”.(救国救民)The Beamless Hall(无梁殿) was built with bricks and stones without a piece of wood or a single nail. In 1928, it was turned into the sacrificial hall to commemorate the officers and soldiers of National Revolutionary Army falling in the battle.There are some other scenic spots such as the Pine-wind Pavilion(松风阁) and Linggu Pagoda. The latter was built in 1933 as memorial Pagoda for the officers and soldiers of the National Revolutional Army in the war. In the bushes west of Pine-wind Pavilion, there lies a tomb Pagoda, Baogong Pagoda, named after the Monk Baozhi of the Southern Dynasties.East of Beamless Hall is Linggu Temple with Buddha’s figures not only from the Beamless Hall but also from Xuanzang Memorial Hall.

南京景点英语导游词范文(精选3篇)
南京景点英语导游词范文(精选3篇)南京景点英语导游词1 Now we are on the way to the Linggu Temple Park. On our right there is a fishing terrace with beige glazed tiles built in 1937. It was a monument to Dr. Sun Yatsen from the National Military Academy, which was founded by Dr. Sun Yatsen in 1924.Linggu Temple lies about one and a half kilometers to the east of Dr. Sun Yatsen s Mausoleum. It was called Jiangshan Temple in the ancient times and its original site was in Dulongfu at the foot of the Purple Mountain. However, in the early days of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang chose that place to build his tomb, thus the temple had to be moved and rebuilt at the present site and was renamed as the Linggu Temple with an inscription “The First Buddhist Forest “ at the entrance to the mountain. Inside the entrance there is a secluded footpath with thousands of pine trees, verdant and luxuriant, so it is called the “Valley of Spirit Deep in Pines”.It is one of the 48 attractions in Nanjing.Inside the temple there is the Beamless Hall built in 1381 in the Ming dynasty. The hall, 53.8 meters long,37.85 meters wide and 22 meters high, was built entirely of bricks and stones from top to bottom without a piece of wood. There are nine overlapping ridges and three dagobas decorating the top ridges. In size, the Beamless Hall stands first and foremost of its kind in China. It was built more than 200 years earlier than the other five of the same kind in the other areas: Xiangtong Temple at Wutai Mountain; Yongzuo Temple in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province; Wannian Temple on Ermei Mountain in Sichuan; Kaiyuan Temple in Shzhou and Longchang Temple in Jurong County. It far surpasses them all in solidity and magnificence. No wonder it is considered a masterpiece of Chinese stone-brick buildings. The difficulty involved in its construction and the complexity of techniques adopted testify the wisdom of the architectural technology of the time in China.Beyond the Beamless Hall are the Wind-through-pines Pavilion and a nine-storeyed, over sixty-meter-high octagonal pagoda, with a corridor encircled by stone rails on each storey. Inside the pagoda a spiral staircase winds to the top through the nine stories. When one gets to the top story and gaze into the distance, one can get a view of the entiremausoleum area.南京景点英语导游词2 The 600-year-old Ming Tomb, lying at the southern foot of the Purple Mountain, is the tomb for Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty from 1368 to 1398.Born into a poor peasant family in Fengyang County, Anhui Province in 1328, Zhu Yuanzhang lost his parents in his childhood and became a monk at Huangjue Temple. In 1352, he joined the Red Turban Army led by Guo Zixin. He married Guo Zixin’s adopted daughter and became the commanding general later. Zhu Yuanzhang took over Nanjing in 1356 and made it the capital in 1368 when he conquered the rest parts of China and established the Ming Dynasty.Zhu Yuanzhang began to have his tomb built in 1381 when his wife died. The empress was buried in the tomb in 1383. But Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang died in 1398 and was buried here in the same year.Now we are reaching the tomb gate, known as Grand Golden Gate. Ming Tomb is divided into two parts. The first part is from Horse Dismounting Arch Gate to Linxin Gate, 1800 meters long, serving as the tomb avenue. The second part is the tomb itself. There was originally a grand red wall, 22.5 kilometers long, enclosing thewhole tomb area. The tomb complex was very large with many splendid buildings. 100000 pines were planted and 1000 deer raised inside. Unfortunately, this large group of buildings was ruined during the wartime, once between the Ming and Qing Dynasties and the other time when Taiping Peasant Army was suppressed by the Qing Dynasty army. All the wooden structures were destroyed. However we can still see the exquisite stone carvings from the stone bases and imagine how it looked like 600 years ago.At the Horse Dismounting Arch Gate, the inscription can be seen “All the officials must dismount from their horsebacks here”. This shows the absolute dignity of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang at that time.Here we are at the square city, also called the stone tablet house. Its top is gone but the surrounding walls and four archways are still remaining, just like a castle. The Great Ming Dynasty Wonderful Achievements and Merits Tablet, 8.78 meters high, built in 1413 by the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is the highest ancient tablet in Nanjing. There are altogether 2746 Chinese characters on the tablet, which praise Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang for his deeds and merits by his fourth son who made himself the third emperor of the MingDynasty.Why did Zhu Di, the third emperor erect this stone tablet? Zhu Yuanzhang had 26 sons. His first son died in 1392, so his first grandson, then 16, was nominated to be the successor to Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang. In 1398, 22-year-old Zhu Yunwen became the second emperor after his grandfather’s death. However his uncle Zhu Di was then in Beijing and found some excuse to launch a war against him. The four-year-long war ended with the uncles victory. Zhu Di grabbed the power and became the third emperor. When Zhu Di praised Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, he was actually praising himself. Originally, Zhu Di planned to have a 72-meter-high stone tablet carved out of Yangshan hill in the eastern suburb of Nanjing. Since it was too heavy to be moved, he gave up his plan and had this small one made.The stone animal under the tablet looks like a tortoise. It is actually the first son of the dragon, well known for its strength. Its name is Bi Xi and he is always put there to carry imperial tablets. According to the legend, when the stone tablet was carved, the chief mason could hardly have it mount on the back of Bi Xi because it was too heavy. He was very worried and did not know what to do. One day he had adream, in which he was told that only when the tablet and Bi Xi did not see each other, he would make the mounting possible. Clever as he was, he covered Bi Xi with mud and pushed the tablet onto the back of Bi Xi as you can see now.When we pass the imperial bridge, we can see the sacred path lined with 24 animals. There are six kinds of animals, one pair standing and the other kneeling. The standing pair is working and the kneeling resting. They work on two shifts. The significance of these animals is to show the countrys power and emperors influence, to drive away the evil spirits and guard the tomb. The first 2 pairs of animals are lions, king of the beats. The second 2 pairs of animals are called Bi Xie, a mythical animal, suggesting justice. The following pairs of animals include camels, elephants, unicorns and horses. The camel is known as boat in the desert and symbol of prosperity. Each elephant weighs 80 tons and symbolizes peace. The unicorn represents good luck while Horse loyalty.You may wonder how these heavy stone animals were moved to this place. The fact is in the cold winter, workers splashed water on the ground and pushed the stone animals to the present locations on the freezingice.Two 6.25 meter-high stone pillars serve as altars for the sacrificial offerings. The sacred avenue makes a right turn here just because the Plum Blossom Hill stands in the way. The hill is the tomb for Sun Quan, the first emperor of Eastern Wu Kingdom. When Ming Tomb was constructed, some people suggested that Sun Quans tomb should be moved away. But Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang commented that Sun Quan was a good fellow and should stay. This showed the emperor’s modesty. Among the 8 stone figures, four are ministers and the other are warriors.When we cross the imperial bridge and walk a short distance, we reach the tomb itself. The arch gate, imperial stone tablet pavilion, the grand hall, square city, grand terrace, treasure city, treasure top are all on the north-south axis, a typical layout of the ancient Chinese architecture.The arch gate has 5 doorways, with yellow glazed tiles, red walls and doors. But this gate was rebuilt in 1999.In the stone tablet pavilion built in early Qing Dynasty, we can see an inscription by Emperor Kang Xi, the second emperor of Qing Dynasty, “Running the stateas prosperously as Tang and Song Dynasties”. Since Qing rulers were Manchurians, Emperor Kangxi was worried that the Han people wouldnt follow him. This stone tablet indicated Emperor Kang Xis desire to be peaceful with the Hans. He made 6 trips down to southern China from Beijing and visited Ming Tomb for 5 times. This tablet was erected here in 1699 during his third visit. We can tell from this tablet that Emperor Kang Xi was no wonder a great emperor.The tomb is at the foot of Purple Mountain. It has not been excavated because of the technical reasons of preservation.The tomb site was selected by Zhu Yuanzhang himself. However there had been a Buddhist temple here. Zhu Yuangzhang paced up and down and looked upset each time when he was here. The wise abbot in the temple felt it and suggested to the emperor that the temple should be moved because his teacher told him so in his dream. The emperor was happy when he heard this and had the temple rebuilt to the east of his tomb.南京景点英语导游词3 The imposing city wall, as high as a five-story building, is the good impression of the visitors to Nanjing.The building of the wall began in 1366, ordered byZhu Yuanzhang who, two years later, founded the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). More than 200,000 people worked on the project and many of them died before the wall was completed in 1368.The wall was 33.678 kilometers in circumference and 14.21 meters high on average. It was the longest city wall in the world and the city enclosed by it remained the worlds largest until the 17thcentury.In order to guarantee the quality of the wall, Zhu Yuanzhang had tight control over the making of all bricks. The brick makers and the officials were responsible for overseeing the quality. In case a brick was found not up to the standard, all of them were supposed to be punished.Different from the square-shaped city walls of most ancient Chinese cities, Nanjings wall followed the natural terrain and was built on a foundation of huge rocks. The bricks were cemented in with a mortar of lime mixed with tung oil and glutinous rice gruel. Many parts of the wall are still in good condition.The city wall has 24 gates, among which the Zhonghua (China) Gate, formerly called the Treasure Pot Gate, is the largest. Covering an area of 15,168 square meters, 20 meters high, the gate has 4 entrances with 4 doors.Behind the first conventional double panel wooden door, there are 3 other 23-centimeter-thick vertically sliding stone doors. The heavy stone doors are lifted and dropped with the help of a mechanical winch. If enemy troops broke through the first wooden door, they could be separated and trapped inside by the dropping of the other 3 stone doors. This strategy is known in China as “beating dogs behind a bolted door.”The first entrance is in a three-tier building in which 27 tunnels are built. These tunnels are big enough to accommodate more than 3,000 soldiers and store large quantity of food and ammunitions. On its both sides there are wide horse ramps. At the top, a rostrum allows a commanding view. Unfortunately, this rostrum and parts of the wall were destroyed by the Japanese during the Second World War.Now the Nanjing Municipal Government plans to have part of the city wall repaired and some of the city gates renovated.s(“content_relate”);。

completed in 1929 when dr. sun yatsen was buried there on june 1.dr. sun yatsen, also named sun wen or sun zhongshan, is considered as the father of the chinese democratic revolution.born in a peasant family in guangdong province in 1866, he had his primary education in honolulu, hawaii sponsored by his elder brother from 1878 to 1883.he was so sad when he saw the poverty of the country upon his return.china had been a super power for centuries. but since the middle of qing dynasty in the 1800’s, china began to decline, which owed a great deal to the corruptions and incompetence of the qing government. foreign invasions and peasant rebellions made it even worse. the opium war in 1840 ended with the “treaty of nanjing”. china was forced to pay an indemnity of 21 million silver dollars and cede hong kong to the great britain and open 5free port cities to the westerners, which were guangzhou, xiamen, fuzhou, ningbo and shanghai.following were the wars again launched by france in 1883 and japan in 1894.the chinese people lived in a miserable life. they were referred to the “sick man of the orient” by the westerners.dr. sun yatsen dreamed to save the nation by practicing medicine and that led him to hong kong to learn medicine when he was 21 years old.however, it did not work.the reality made him give up his medical career in his hometown and macao but turn to politics in 1893.from then on, he kept petitioning to the qing government for reforms but was never responded.at great disappointment, he left the country later and went canvassing extensively in the united states of america, europe and japan, trying to win the sympathy and support from the overseas chinese.with the funds raised, he organized “revive china league” - china’s first bourgeois organization.the following 1905 witnessed the founding of the “chinese revolutionary league” headed by dr. sun yatsen, a party with a clear-cut program of “expel tartars, restore china, establish republic & equalize land.”dr. sun yatsen also put forth 3 democratic principles of “nationalism, democracy & people’s livelihood” as his political goal.the armed movements against the qing government took placecontinuously.the most important event following was the 1911 revolution in wuhan led by dr. sun yatsen, which drove the last emperor of the qing dynasty out of the forbidden city in beijing, marking the end of the old dynastic system in china.in the same year, the representatives of 17 provinces met in nanjing and elected dr. sun yatsen president of the provisional government of the republic of china.on january 1, 1912 it was in nanjing where the first republic in chinese history was founded and dr. sun yatsen inaugurated his presidency.unfortunately the new republic was threatened by powerful warlords in the north.to avoid political crisis and save the republic, dr. sun yatsen compromised conditionally with the major northern warlord named yuan shikai who had been pursuing the national power for a long time.he resigned at the end of march 1912, but never stopped pursuing his goal.soon after that, china went into chaotic civil wars again.the situation led to a se ries of movements like “the second revolution,” “save the republic,” “restore the legislation” and “the northern expeditions” in the following years.dr. sun yatsen spent most of his time dealing with warlords.not until 1921, dr. sun yatsen resumed his presidency in guangzhou.at the firstnational congress of the chinese kuomintang in 1924, he adopted the policy of “alliance with russia and communists, assistance to peasants and workers” and officially acknowledged the cooperation between the nationalist party and communist party in running the government.in november of 1924, dr. sun yatsen, despite his poor health, made an expedition to the north with his ambition to eliminate warlords, expel imperialists and abrogate unequal treaties.he was warmly greeted by thousands of people upon his arrival in beijing.he met with many politicians and warlords, trying to persuade them to get united to build a new china.but the result did not look optimistic.he became very sick due to hard work and had to be hospitalized.the diagnosis turned out he was suffering an advanced-stage liver cancer.when he realized it would not be very long for him to stay in this world, he dictated his assistant 3 last wills, one to his party, one to the russian government and the other to his wife madam song qingling.on march 12, 1925 dr. sun yatsen passed away in beijing union hospital.dr. sun yatsen is a great man because he devoted 40 years of his life to pursuing his dream to overthrow the feudal monarchy and build an untied democratic china.why was dr. sun yatsen buried in nanjing instead of in his hometown or beijing where he diedthe mausoleum site was first recommended to dr. sun yatsen by the abbot of linggu temple for its good geomantic omen.one day in april, 1912 when he went hunting to the site with his friends, dr. sun yatsen was really so amazed by the beautiful environment that he wished the people would allow him to be buried there after his death.he expressed this desire again in his sickbed in 1925.dr. sun yatsen’s mausoleum is designed in the shape of a liberty bell, intending to remind people never to get self-contented.the whole architecture, from the gateway, to the main entrance, tablet pavilion, memorial hall and the tomb vault, lies on the north-south axis with 392 steps and 10 platforms in between.the buildings are all constructed with natural granite and marbles and covered by blue glazed-tile roofs.opposite to the bronze incense-burner off the square, stands the 12-metre high gateway of three arches with dr. sun yatsen’s handwriting “fraternity” carved on its front top.the 480-meter long tomb avenue, lined with pine, gingko and maple trees, leads to the main entrance.dr. sun yatsen’s motto “the world belongs to the people” can be seen right above the door in the middle.walking through it, the first building you will see is thetablet pavilion which houses a huge tombstone. the tombstone is engraved with “premier dr. sun is buried here by the chinese nationalist party on june 1, 1929.”from there, a panoramic view of the memorial hall can be obtained.however, there are still 290 steps to go before you reach the memorial hall on the top.the memorial hall stands 73.33 meters above the ground. in the center of the memorial hall sits the italian white marble statue of dr. sun yatsen mounted on a pedestal carved in bas-relief by a polish sculptor. the surrounding walls are inscribed with the national constitution written by dr. sun yatsen.beyond the memorial hall is the tomb vault. standing by the pool inside, if you look down, you bow to see dr. sun yatsen’s reclining marble statue with his body buried 5 meters underneath.if you look up, you find the emblem of the nationalist party on the ceiling.when you wrap up your homage tour and step down, you will not only enjoy a bird’s-eye view of beautiful nanjing, but also feel totally relieved because you do not see any more those 392 steps you have conquered.not until then, you will not understand how great dr. sun yatsen is.the 600-year-old ming tomb, lying at the southern foot of the purple mountain, is the tomb for zhu yuanzhang, the firstemperor of the ming dynasty from 1368 to 1398.born into a poor peasant family in fengyang county, anhui province in 1328, zhu yuanzhang lost his parents in his childhood and became a monk at huangjue temple. in 1352, he joined the red turban army led by guo zixin. he married guo zixin’s adopted daughter and became the commanding general later. zhu yuanzhang took over nanjing in 1356 and made it the capital in 1368 when he conquered the rest parts of china and established the ming dynasty.zhu yuanzhang began to have his tomb built in 1381 when his wife died. the empress was buried in the tomb in 1383. but emperor zhu yuanzhang died in 1398 and was buried here in the same year.now we are reaching the tomb gate, known as grand golden gate. ming tomb is divided into two parts. the first part is from horse dismounting arch gate to linxin gate, 1800 meters long, serving as the tomb avenue. the second part is the tomb itself. there was originally a grand red wall, 22.5 kilometers long, enclosing the whole tomb area. the tomb complex was very large with many splendid buildings. 100000 pines were planted and 1000 deer raised inside. unfortunately, this large group of buildings was ruined during the wartime, once between the mingand qing dynasties and the other time when taiping peasant army was suppressed by the qing dynasty army. all the wooden structures were destroyed. however we can still see the exquisite stone carvings from the stone bases and imagine how it looked like 600 years ago.at the horse dismounting arch gate, the inscription can be seen all the officials must dismount from their horsebacks here. this shows the absolute dignity of emperor zhu yuanzhang at that time.here we are at the square city, also called the stone tablet house. its top is gone but the surrounding walls and four archways are still remaining, just like a castle. the great ming dynasty wonderful achievements and merits tablet, 8.78 meters high, built in 1413 by the third emperor of the ming dynasty, is the highest ancient tablet in nanjing. there are altogether 2746 chinese characters on the tablet, which praise emperor zhu yuanzhang for his deeds and merits by his fourth son who made himself the third emperor of the ming dynasty.why did zhu di, the third emperor erect this stone tablet zhu yuanzhang had 26 sons. his first son died in 1392, so his first grandson, then 16, was nominated to be the successor to emperor zhu yuanzhang. in 1398, 22-year-old zhu yunwenbecame the second emperor after his grandfather’s death. however his uncle zhu di was then in beijing and found some excuse to launch a war against him. the four-year-long war ended with the uncle's victory. zhu di grabbed the power and became the third emperor. when zhu di praised emperor zhu yuanzhang, he was actually praising himself. originally, zhu di planned to have a 72-meter-high stone tablet carved out of yangshan hill in the eastern suburb of nanjing. since it was too heavy to be moved, he gave up his plan and had this small one made.the stone animal under the tablet looks like a tortoise. it is actually the first son of the dragon, well known for its strength. its name is bi xi and he is always put there to carry imperial tablets. according to the legend, when the stone tablet was carved, the chief mason could hardly have it mount on the back of bi xi because it was too heavy. he was very worried and did not know what to do. one day he had a dream, in which he was told that only when the tablet and bi xi did not see each other, he would make the mounting possible. clever as he was, he covered bi xi with mud and pushed the tablet onto the back of bi xi as you can see now.when we pass the imperial bridge, we can see the sacredpath lined with 24 animals. there are six kinds of animals, one pair standing and the other kneeling. the standing pair is working and the kneeling resting. they work on two shifts. the significance of these animals is to show the country's power and emperor's influence, to drive away the evil spirits and guard the tomb. the first 2 pairs of animals are lions, king of the beats. the second 2 pairs of animals are called bi xie, a mythical animal, suggesting justice. the following pairs of animals include camels, elephants, unicorns and horses. the camel is known as boat in the desert and symbol of prosperity. each elephant weighs 80 tons and symbolizes peace. the unicorn represents good luck while horse loyalty.you may wonder how these heavy stone animals were moved to this place. the fact is in the cold winter, workers splashed water on the ground and pushed the stone animals to the present locations on the freezing ice.two 6.25 meter-high stone pillars serve as altars for the sacrificial offerings. the sacred avenue makes a right turn here just because the plum blossom hill stands in the way. the hill is the tomb for sun quan, the first emperor of eastern wu kingdom. when ming tomb was constructed, some people suggested that sun quan's tomb should be moved away. but emperor zhuyuanzhang commented that sun quan was a good fellow and should stay. this showed the emperor’s modesty. among the 8 stone figures, four are ministers and the other are warriors.when we cross the imperial bridge and walk a short distance, we reach the tomb itself. the arch gate, imperial stone tablet pavilion, the grand hall, square city, grand terrace, treasure city, treasure top are all on the north-south axis, a typical layout of the ancient chinese architecture.the arch gate has 5 doorways, with yellow glazed tiles, red walls and doors. but this gate was rebuilt in 1999.in the stone tablet pavilion built in early qing dynasty, we can see an inscription by emperor kang xi, the second emperor of qing dynasty, running the state as prosperously as tang and song dynasties. since qing rulers were manchurians, emperor kangxi was worried that the han people wouldn't follow him. this stone tablet indicated emperor kang xi's desire to be peaceful with the hans. he made 6 trips down to southern china from beijing and visited ming tomb for 5 times. this tablet was erected here in 1699 during his third visit. we can tell from this tablet that emperor kang xi was no wonder a great emperor.the tomb is at the foot of purple mountain. it has not been excavated because of the technical reasons of preservation.the tomb site was selected by zhu yuanzhang himself. however there had been a buddhist temple here. zhu yuangzhang paced up and down and looked upset each time when he was here. the wise abbot in the temple felt it and suggested to the emperor that the temple should be moved because his teacher told him so in his dream. the emperor was happy when he heard this and had the temple rebuilt to the east of his tomb.。

On October 12, 1866, Mr. Sun was born in a farmer's family in Caiheng village of Xiangshan county (the present-day zhongshan City), Guangdong Province. He put forward the famous guiding principle- "driving the invaders out, restoring the sovereignty of China, establishing a republic and equalizing the land ownership" and the Three People's Principles-"Nationalism, Democracy and the People's Livelihood." Unfortunately, he broke down from constant overwork and passed away on March 12, 1925.The location of the Mausoleum was chosen by Mr. Sun himself. Here is exactly a good place to build a mausoleum. You may wonder: Mr. Sun was born in Guangdong but died in Beijing. For his whole life he traveled throughout China for the revolution. Why did he choose Nanjing as the venue of his tomb? Fundamentally speaking, the reason he chose Zijing Mountain as his permanent resting-place is to commemorate the revolution of 1911 and to encourage the revolutionaries. Among all the contribution, young architect Lu Yanzhi's design, a design in the shape of a bell, was highly praised and gained the first prize and he himself was invited to supervise the whole project as well. The crescent-shaped square is the bottom of the "Bell of Freedom".Now, we are going out of the Zhongshan Gate and driving along the Mausoleum Road.Please look to the south.The copper "ding" with two looped handles and two legs weighs 5000 kg. It is 4.25 meters high and its diameter is 1.23 meters. It is one of the construction for memory of the mausoleum. To the bell-shaped mausoleum the "ding " is just like the pendulum. It seems to serve to alarm the whole nation by striking the bell.Further from the Fraternity Archway, there is a roadleading to the mausoleum. The road is 480 meters long and dozens of meters wide. The whole design of the mausoleum gives prominence to Chinese traditional style, grand, solemn and specific.Now, please look forward to the north, along the hillside, situate the mausoleum Gate, the Stele Pavilion, the Memorial Hall and the coffin chamber right behind. The pines, cypresses, ginkgoes and maples on the both sides of the road represent Mr. Sun's revolutionary spirit and lofty quality. Now we are coming near the top platform. Look, there are two big copper "ding".There are two holes in the bottom of the left "ding". Why?In late 1937, when the Japanese army attacked Nanjing, their shooting left two holes in the left ding. Now, although the circumstances have changed, the two holes always remind Chinese people not to forget the national humiliation. Ascending the steps, now we have reached the top of the platform. Here we can have a bird-view of what it is in the distance. The Memorial Hall is the half way up to the mountain and there are altogether 392 steps covered if you count from the archway of Fraternity. More marvelous, if you look up from the bottom, you can see that the steps extend to the top without stop and you cant see any platform. But if you look down from the top, you only seethe platforms. The number of the steps, 392, is not a random number; it implied the number of Chinese population at that time-392 million.Now we are in front of the Memorial Hall and the coffin Chamber. These are the most basic and general guiding principles of Mr. Sun's revolutionary activities. Above "Democracy", there is a horizontal inscription board with Sun's handwriting on it, "Fill the World with Justice".Please follow me into the Memorial Hall. The floor is covered with white and black marble from Yunnan Province.

The emperor was happy when he heard this and had the temple rebuilt to the east of his tomb. OK, thank you very much for your cooperation. Good-bye and good luck for your next trip !㈢灵谷寺Linggu TempleLinggu Temple was called Jiangshan Temple in ancient time and its original site was in Donglongfu at the foot of the Purple Mountain.This tenple with an inscription “The First Buddhist Forest”at the entrance to the mountain.My friends,please follow my steps.Inside the entrance there is a secluded footpath with thousands of pine trees ,verdant and luxuriant ,so it is called the “Valley of Spirit Deep in pines”.It is one of the 48 attractions in Nanjing.Main attractions in the park include Linggu Temple ,the gateway of officers and men killed in action,Beamless Hall,Pine and Wind Pavilion,Linggu Pagoda,Monk Baogong Pagoda and the Tablet of Three GreatArtists,etc.The first major attraction is the gateway of officals and men killed in action.The gateway has 5 principle columns made of concrete cement.The gate has its foundation inlaid with granite on surface and roofed by blue –glazed tile.The lintel of the middle door is carved with 4 Chinese characters“Great justice and Virtue”in front face and “Salvation of the Nation and People”on the back.Inside the park there is the Beamless Hall built in 1381 in the Ming dynasty.There are nine overlapping ridges and three dagobas decorating the top ridges .In terms of size,the Beamless Hall stands first and foremost of its kind in China.It was built more than 200years earlier than the other five of the same kind in other areas.The original site of the Pine and Wind Pavilion is the former religious discipline hall of the Linggue Temple.The present pavilion was built in 1929,as the memorial hall of the officials and men killed in action with the things left behind by the martyrs.The pavilion was damaged in the War of Resistance against Japan and restored after 1949.Linggu Pagoda was built in 1933 as a memorial pagoda for the officals and men killed in wars.The nine-storeyed octagonalpagoda,is over sisty-meter-high,with a corridor encircled by stone rails on each story.3 characters “Linggu Pagoda”are inscribed on the lintel of the front door and “Where there is a will there’s a way”on the lintel of the back door.Inside the pagoda a spiral staircase of 252 steps winds to the top through the nine stories.In the buses west of Pine and Wind Pavilion there lies a tomb pagoda“ Baogong Pagoda”named after the eminent Monk BaoZhi of the Southern Dynasties.Tradition has it that Monk BaoZhi was born into a bird’s nest in 436.He became a monk when he was 7 years old.Before his death,BaoZhi had frequent contact with Emperor Wudi of the Liang Dynasty and was highly respected by the emperor.Linggu Temple is the only one out of 70 Buddhist monasteries handed down from the Southern Dynasties.The Temple was relocated to the present site in the Ming dynasty and named Linggu Buddhist Monastery by Emperor ZhuYuanzhang,who contributed a lot of money and land to the monastery out of the gratitude that the relocation effectuated the construction of his tomb at Dulongfu.The Ming Dynasty also put 12 temples including Qixia Monastery under the abministration of Linggu Temple and the temple was so largethat it could support more than 1000 monks at that time.The present temple is much smaller than it used to be.In the temple there is the Treasure Hall of the Great Sage.In the east of the hall,there is a chambre,which used to be called the Goddess of mercy Hall.But it is turned to the memorial hall of Master Xuan Zang.Whi went to India in the 7th century and brought back with him large quantities of Buddhist sutras.The legendary story of this great monk-traveler and his disciples is vividly described in the great master-piece Journey to the West by Wu Cheng’en.In the memorial hall,some of his skull,introduction of his pilgrimage route to India and his return to Chang’an are on display.In front of the temple,there is a screen wall,on which is written with 10 characters “the Buddhist rites performed to bury Monk BaoZhi’s remains”.

Heavenly Kingdom and the Revolution Palace after Dr.Sun Yat-sen became provisional president of the Office of the President office.It is located in the Yangtze RiverRoad,No.292,now has become China’s largest museum of modern history.The history of the place dates back to 600 years ago,and the site was the mansion of Prince of Han during the Ming Dynasty.In 1912,Dr.Sun Yat-sen was elected the Provisional President of the Republic,and changed the west garden of the palace into the Presidential Residence.In1928,the palace became the administration office of the republic government.Opposite to the gate of the palace across the street is the Screen Wall.By the side of the wall,there is a tablet,which is engraved with an incription of Guo Moruo’s autograph that reads“the 100th anniversary of Taiping Uprising”.Built in 1930,the Gate Tower is two-storeyed building with three arch-gates in an imitation of ancient Rome style.It used to be the guardroom during the period of the Republic of China.The Palace of Heavenly King ,surrounded by two walls,is found right at the entrance of the gate.The area within the outer wall was called“The City of Sun”,while that within the main inner wall was called“The city of the Golden Dragon”.On both sides of the main hall were gardens.In1864,when the Qing Dynasty army overran theHeavenly Kingdom captical,most of its buildings were destroyed.But fortunately,the garden west of the main hall,predecessor of the present-day Xuyuan Garden,survived.The palace is newly restored,including the study,throne and imperial harem.In addition ,the history of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is on exhibition here.The complex in the east of the court was the yamen of Governor-general of Multi-province.Yamen is the government office in feudal China.The Presidential Palace is a three-storeyed building.The first floor was the office of secretariat.The second floor was the predient’s office,vice president’s office and the secretary-general’s office.The third was the State Conference Hall,in which the most important meetings were held once two weeks.In addition ,16 special council members were also present at these meetings.Xuyuan Garden was first built for ChenLi as his mansion in the Ming Dynasty,some 600years ago.From 1853 to 1949 ,the site witnessed the vicissitudes and changes of nearly a century’s Chinese history,and left a number of historical relics and records,therefore it offers tourists a live classroom of modern Chinese history.The west Garden came into being in the late Qing Dynasty,hence was deeply stamped with the brand of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.The garden covers an area of 1.4hectares,consisting of 3 parts ----a small courtyard in front of the garden,the east part with a rocky hill,and the west part with a vase-like water pond.The courtyard is a bit too small,but yet well worth seeing because it’s the only passage to the west garden.The outer gate of the yard used to be the place for sedan chair carriers taking the load off their shoulders for restOn the lintel of the gate is inlaid a carved brick with two Chinese characters“Xuyuan ”.In addition,the white wall is opened up a miin gate with two characters“Xuyuan”written on the top.As a works of art,a garden like literary works has its“preface,development,climax and epilogue.”Therefore,this small yard is the “preface”of the whole garden.When tourists go out of the moon gate ,they come to the main body of the West Garden,of which the layout is like a painting and a piece of real art of Chinese garden,therefore gradual necessary.Northeast to the rockery is Tongyin Hall.A story goes like this.A musician named YuBoya used to play music here toentertain his friends,among which ZhongZiqi was the only one who could understand his kindness,so they became the bosom friends as we Chinese say“Zhiyin”.Later Yu never played the music after Zhong died.Actually,Tongyin Hall was the place for the host to entertain his intimate friends in ancient China.The Fangsheng Pavilion has two roofs linked like two mandarin ducks sleeping with their necks together.Seen from far away,the pavilion seems to be twin pavilions.The design is symolic of faithfulness between man and woman.The lake is shaped like a porcelain vase,which has a number of the connotations as “peace,safety,harmony,serenity,repose,ease,or tranquility”.The greatest attraction in the lake is a marble boat called unmoored boat----a miniature of the famous one in Beijing’s Summer Palace.And the place is wonderful for people to enjoy the scenery of full moon as well as pleasant music on the evening of traditional Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival.There are several interesting buildings worth lingering a while,for example,the Sunset Pavilion with a three-piece tablet of Eastern Wu Emperor Sun Hao’s writing,the Outlook Pavilion with a tablet of Chinese painting and carving,the Imperial Tablet Pavilion with the handwriting of Emperor Qianlong.The officeof Dr.Sun put up near the garden where he held important meetings and met friends.At present,the building is preserved and has been converted into an exhibition hall of Dr.Sun’s office work and daily life. OK, thank you very much for your cooperation. Good-bye and good luck for your next trip !㈤总统府(中轴线+东线)Presidential ResidenceThe eastern lake was destoryed in the ancient time,so what you see now the east garden was rebuilt not so far from now.The
