清明山河园简介中英文对照

英译汉：MILLENNIUM CITY PARK清明上河园The Millennium City Park is a large-size theme park of the culture and history of Song Dynasty. It is located at the west bank of the picturesque Longting Lake in Kaifeng City, and covers an area of 600mu.This scenic spot is reproduced in Qingming Festival by the Riverside, an excellent work of Zhang Zeduan, the famous painter in Northern Song Dynasty. It opened officially to the public on Oct 28th 1998.清明上河园是中国著名古都河南开封的一座大型历史文化主题公园，占地600亩，坐落在开封城风光秀丽的龙亭湖西岸。

它是依照北宋著名画家张择端的传世之作《清明上河图》为蓝本建造的，1998年10月28日正式对外开放。

Qingming Festival by the Riverside is a precious scroll reflecting the social custom of KaiFeng ,the ancient capital of Northern Song Dynasty of China, including social life, markets and urban constriction pattern. Though it only reflects part of Kaifeng City, we can get a rough idea and imagine the general outline of other streets. The more interesting thing is that Zhang Zeduan made the ancient city in a scroll a thousand years ago, while a thousand year later Kaifeng’s people make the picture scroll into reality. Roaming here, you would have a very often sense of time backflow, and you can dream of returning to the millennium in a day once entering the scroll picture.《清明上河图》是中国古代一幅弥足珍贵的社会民俗生活长卷，画中国所反映的，是中国北宋时期作为古都开封的社会生活、市井风情和城建格局。

They also have delicious snacks like candy sculpted into animal shapes. I want to go back and explore the gardens again soon!篇2Qingming Shanghe Garden is a pretty park in Kaifeng, China. It has bridges over rivers and lovely gardens with flowers. During Qingming Festival, people make flower shapes on the water and let them float away to honor ancestors. The gardens have traditional Chinese buildings that are very old but still beautiful. My favorite part is feeding the fish and ducks in the ponds! It's a peaceful place to spend the day with family.篇3The Qingming Riverside Scenic Area in Kaifeng CityHi everyone! My name is Emma and I'm a 5th grader. Recently, my family and I went on a trip to the Qingming Riverside Scenic Area in Kaifeng, which is an ancient city in Henan Province, China. It was such an amazing experience that I can't wait to tell you all about it!We arrived in Kaifeng in the morning after taking ahigh-speed train from Beijing. As soon as we stepped out of the train station, we could feel the strong cultural vibe of this historic place. Our first stop was the Qingming Riverside Scenic Area, which is right next to the famous Longting Park.The scenic area follows the curvy path of the Zhang River for several kilometers. It recreates the lively scene of the Qingming Festival as depicted in the famous ancient painting "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" by Zhang Zeduan. This huge panoramic work shows all aspects of people's lives in the capital city of the Northern Song Dynasty over 1,000 years ago!As we walked along the riverside path, we were surrounded by replicas of ancient buildings, gardens, bridges, pavilions, and even an entire street market from that era. Everything was so realistic and vibrant with colors. There were also loads of people dressed up like characters from the Qingming painting, includingnoblemen, scholars, merchants, farmers, entertainers and more. They were going about their "lives" just like in the painting.One of the highlights was the lively street market section. Vendors were selling all kinds of handmade toys, handicrafts, foods and snacks from ancient times. I had a wooden sword made for me by a toy maker and also got to sample some yummy sticky rice balls and candied fruit. The smells of the street food were making my mouth water!Further along, we came across recreation of a neighborhood with houses, workshops, wineries, and even operas and circuses being performed just like a millennium ago. The makeup and costumes of the performers were so intricate and beautiful. At one point, we watched an impressive acrobatics show where they did crazy flips and human pyramids.My little brother especially loved the petting zoo area with farmyard animals like chickens, ducks, pigs, and even a water buffalo! We all had a turn riding on a donkey too. I felt like I had traveled back to an ancient village.The garden areas were so serene and picturesque with willow trees, ponds, pavilions and rockeries. There was even a section modeled after the famous gardens of Suzhou with an exquisite landscape of ponds and bridges.We spent over four hours in the Qingming Riverside Scenic Area and still didn't get to see everything! My favorite part was probably the life-sized diorama sections that brought the ancient Qingming painting to life. It gave me a vivid window into what life was like for people over 1,000 years ago during the prosperous Song Dynasty.After Qingming Riverside, we explored other parts of Kaifeng like the temples, pagodas, city walls and night markets. But that first scenic area really transported us back to an era of dynastic grandeur. I'll never forget my amazing time travel adventure in Kaifeng!篇4The Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden: A Wonderland for KidsHi there! My name is Emma, and I'm a 10-year-old girl who loves exploring new places. Today, I want to tell you all about the amazing Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden in Kaifeng, China. This place is like a giant playground for kids like me, and I had the best time there!When my family and I first arrived at the garden, we were greeted by a massive stone archway that looked like it camestraight out of a fairy tale. As we walked through the gate, it was like stepping into a different world. The garden is designed to look like a traditional Chinese painting, with winding paths, beautiful pavilions, and crystal-clear ponds.One of the coolest things about the Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden is the miniature city they have there. It's a tiny replica of Kaifeng during the Song Dynasty, and it's so detailed that you feel like you've traveled back in time. There are little houses, shops, and even people going about their daily lives. I loved exploring every nook and cranny of this miniature world.But that's not all! The garden also has a bunch of fun activities for kids. There's a playground with swings, slides, and other equipment that's perfect for burning off some energy. And if you get tired of running around, you can take a break and go boating on one of the ponds. The boats are shaped like little swans, and it's so much fun to paddle around and take in the beautiful scenery.Another highlight of the garden is the live performances they have. We got to watch a traditional Chinese opera, and even though I didn't understand all the words, the colorful costumes and elaborate makeup were mesmerizing. They also hadacrobats and musicians performing, and it was incredible to see how talented they were.As we were leaving the garden, I couldn't help but feel a little sad. I had such an amazing time exploring this magical place, and I didn't want the adventure to end. But I know that I'll always have the memories of the Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden, and I can't wait to go back someday.If you ever find yourself in Kaifeng, China, make sure to visit this incredible garden. It's like stepping into a real-life fairy tale, and it's an experience that kids and adults alike will never forget. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!篇5The Qingming Riverside Scenic Area in KaifengHi everyone! Today I want to tell you about a super cool place I visited during my last spring break. It's called the Qingming Riverside Scenic Area and it's in Kaifeng, which is a really old city in the Henan Province of China.This place is amazing! It's set along the ancient Grand Canal and it shows what life was like during the Qingming Festival celebrations from a long time ago. The Qingming Festival is kindof like a Memorial Day when people go and visit their ancestors' graves. But at the riverside scenic area, you get to see recreations of how people used to celebrate back in the day.As soon as you enter, it's like being transported back in time! There are rows and rows of little houses, shops, restaurants and temples just like in the olden days. Everything looks so real and authentic. The cobblestone streets wind along the river banks lined with willow trees.You can watch performers wearing traditional costumes acting out scenes from Qingming festival rituals. There are processions with people carrying incense and food offerings. Musicians play ancient instruments and singers perform folk songs. It's a real slice of history coming to life!One of the coolest parts is all the different kinds of traditional activities you can try. You can learn brush calligraphy writing or painting. Or make paper lanterns, kites, dough figurines and other craftwork. My favorite was getting my name carved into a wooden stamp to use for stamping on paper or cloth. So many fun hands-on things to do!And the food...oh man, the food is unbelievable! They have all these little street food stalls selling yummy snacks and sweet treats just like hundreds of years ago. I tried candied fruit on astick, fried doughnut twists, steamed buns stuffed with sweet bean paste, and my absolute favorite - sweet rice balls coated in sesame seeds. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!There are also demonstrations of old-fashioned crafts and businesses happening all around. You can watch woodworkers, blacksmiths, weavers, dyers and more skilled artisans practicing their trades using centuries-old tools and methods. It's fascinating to see!At night, the whole place just glows with the warm light from lanterns hanging everywhere. And sometimes they have dazzling performances like acrobats, dancers and fire breathers putting on a show. The nighttime is when it feels most magical.I could go on and on about the Qingming Riverside area, but I don't want to spoil all the surprises! If you ever get a chance to go, you absolutely have to check it out. It's like walking through a real-life museum that lets you experience history in the most fun and interactive way. An awesome place for kids and adults alike! I'm already begging my parents to take me back again soon.篇6The Qingming Riverside Garden in Kaifeng is so much fun! It's a big park along the river with pretty gardens, ancientbuildings, and cool statues. My favorite is the huge dragon boat made of colored glass. In spring, the peach blossoms are beautiful. There are also lots of yummy snacks like candied hawthorn on a stick. I love going there to run around and explore with my friends and family. It's an awesome place to learn about history while having a great time!。
