This road is 4 meters above the ground and there is a cavern underneath that was reserved for sacrificial oxen and sheep. The cattle were slaughtered at a slaughterhouse about 500 meters away and brought here for sacrifice. All in all ,it can be said this walkway did serve as bridge and can be looked upon as the first cloverleaf in Beijing.Looking back at the thoroughfare, you may realize that this walk is gaining height toward its northern end. As people approach the architectural group of the Hall of Prayer for good Harvest, the flanking groves of cypress recede and perspective widens. Here you are in Heaven.(Costume-Changing Terrace)the marble terrace up ahead is called jufutai, or CostumeChanging Terrace. It is located to the east of the Red Stairway Bridge and covers a space of 25 square meters .IT has marble Slab balustrades. The day before the service ,officials in charge would put up a yellow satin tent on the terrace for the emperor to change out of his yellow dragon robe into blue ceremonial clothes. After the service, the emperor would returnto the tentand change back into his imperial robe before returning to the palace. (Proceed to the South Gate of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest)(At the Gate of Prayer for Good Harvest)this structure is called the Gate of Pray for Good Harvest. We can catch a slight glimpse of the central building ,the Hall of Prayer for Good harvest, though the colonnade of the Gate. A gigantic and lofty group of buildings, the complex includes the Gate of Prayer for Good Harvest, the hall of prayer for good harvest, eastern and western annex halls ,the Huanqian (Imperial heaven) Long corridor, Heaven Kitchen, slaughterhouse, etc.the annex halls were symmetrically built on a 1.5-meter-hignbrick-and-marble terrace ,to set off the loftiness and magnificence of the main hall .This unique building ,38 meters in height, is characterized by a cone-shaped structure with triple eaves and a top that is crowned by a gilt ball. The roofing is made of blue glazed tiles, the color of the sky .Underneath the roof, the beams and bracket are decorated with colored paintings. The base of the structure is a triple-tiered, circular marble terrace. At a distance, the terrace looks like a gigantic, spiraling cloud with the structure perched on top of it .Today the hall of prayer for good harvest is the hallmark of Beijing, which enjoys a prolonged history of civilization.(At the base of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest)The base of the hall is a triple-tiered, circular marble terrace, which is 90 meters in diameter and 6 meters in height ,covering a space of 4,000 square meters. Meticulous accuracy was given to the layout of the structure. In the middle of each three-tiered flight of stairs, there is a giant marble ramp carved in cloud, dragon and phoenix designs. To set off the ramps, the top of thebalustrades and downpipes are designed with corresponding floral scrolls. In southern part of each tier, a gigantic bronze incense burner is placed. Sandalwood was burnt in them when rites were observed.(In front of the hall of Prayer for good harvest)climbing up this marble terrace, we see the main hall ,a masterpiece of ancient China. Looking up you will see the caisson, or covered ceiling, characterized by complex designs of dragons and phoenixes. In and out , the hall is decorated with colored drawing of dragons and phoenixes.Without the use of steel ,cement and nail, and even without the use of big beams and crossbeams, the entire structure is supported by 28 massive wooden pillars and number of bars, laths, joints and rafters. The four central pillars, called the dragon-Well Pillars, are 19.2 meters high and painted with designs of composite followers, representing the four season. There are two rings of 12 scarlet pillars each. The inner ring represents the 12 months and the outer rings the 12 divisions of the day and night .Between the two rings there are 24 partitioned spaces to mark the solar terms of the Chinese lunar year. The pillars, 28 in number, also represent the 28 constellations in the universe- the ancient Chinese believed that there were 28 constellations that made up the sky.The center of the stone-paved floor is a round marble slab, which is 88.5 centimeters in diameter. Interestingly, the slab features natural black and white veins, corresponding to the dragon-phoenix design on the ceiling. This particular slab is known as the Dragon-phoenix stone and is regarded as a treasure inseparable from the hall.The furnishings within the hall are placed in their originalpositions dating back to when Emperor Xianfeng ruled .In the forefront and above the throne are enshrined tablets in commemoration of Heaven. On either table on each side tablets of the emperor` s ancestors were placed. Each tablet is fronted by an altar. A total of 24 kinds of offering were made on it ,including soup, wine, assorted cereals, and a calf.The sacrificial rites were observed in the wee hours of the morning, sometime in the first month of the Chinese lunar year. Because it was still dark, candles, lanterns and torches were lit. This lighting coupled with the incense being burnt inside the hall ,helped make the ceremony both grand and mystical.By the time the service began,207 musicians and dancers would be performing on platforms outside the hall. The emperor, in his blue sacrificial robe and with an air of piety and sincerity, would walk slowly into the hall, kowtow, and offer wine and prayer in hornor of the deities and his ancestors. All of the offerings would then be taken to incinerators on the eastern side of the gate of prayer for Good Harvest. With this we conclude our visit to the Temper of Heaven. The feudal monarchs and their sacrificial rites have long vanished in history .However, this group of magnificent and lofty structures remain as a fine testament of the ancient Chinese` s ingenuity and as one of the cultural heritages of mankind.(On the Long Corridor)From the Eastern Gate of the hall of prayer for good harvest, we have now enter a 300-meter-long corridor. Consisting of 72 sections, this corridor served as a connecting building between the Slaughterhouse.

There are basically two kinds of visitors who come here: local pensioners who do exercises here in the morning and evening and sightseers both from home and abroad. All in all ,there are 12 million visitors very year. Now we are going to go along the route that leads to the alter. It will take roughly one hour. Mind you ,the emperor also walked along this route to pay tribute to the God of Heaven.(Along the Southern Sacred Road leading to the Circular Mound Altar)The largest group of architectures ever to be dedicated to Heaven ,the Temple of Heaven served as an exclusive altar for Chinese monarchs during the Ming and Qing dynasties. It was decreed that rulers of successive dynasties would place altars in their own capitals to worship Heaven and pray for good harvest. But why ?The ancient Chinese believed that Heaven was the supreme ruler of the universe and the fate of mankind ,and thus worshiping rites dedicated to Heaven came into being.The Heaven the ancient Chinese referred to was actually the Universe, or nature. In those days, there were specfic rites of worship. This was especially true during the Ming and Qing dynasties when elaborate ceremonies were held.The Temple of Heaven was built in 1420 during the reign of Emperor Youngle of the Ming Dynasty. Situated in the southernpart of the city ,this grand set of structures covers an area of 273 hectares. To better symbolize heaven and earth ,the northern part of the Temple is circular while the southern part is square .The whole compound is enclosed by two walls, a square wall outside a round one. The outer area is characterized by suburban scenery, while the inner part is used for sacrifices. The inner enclosure consists of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest and the Circular Mound Altar.(Along the Imperial Passage leading from the Southern Lattice Star Gate in front of the Circular Mound Altar) the Circular Mound Altar is enclosed by two walls ,each containing four groups of Southern Lattice Star Gate, each in turn consisting of three doors, with 24 marble doors altogether. Standing on the passage facing north, you will notice that with each pair of doors on is narrower than the other. This reflects the feudal hierarchy: the wider door was reserved for monarchs, while the narrower one was used by courtiers.On the day of the ceremony ,the emperor would don his ritual costume and be ushered in by the official in charge of religious affairs. He ascended the three terraces in the forefront to pay tribute at the alter.(Atop the Circular Mound Alter)we are now on the top terrace of the Altar, or the third terrace .Each terrace has a flight of 9 steps. At the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 steps. At the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 concentric rings of stone. The number of stones in the first ring is 9, in the second ,18, up to 81 in the 9th ring. Even the number of carved balustrades on these terraces is a multiplee of 9. But why?According to an cient Chinese philosophy, yin and yang were two opposing factors. Heaven and the odd numbers belonged to yang while the Earth and even numbers belonged to yin. Nine was the largest heavenly number accessible to man . What is more, the ancient people also believed that heaven consisted of nine layers and that the emperor` s abode was on the uppermost tier.天坛英文导游词篇4Hello, ladies and gentlemen!Today we are going to visit the former emperor worship place - Tiantan. Now let me introduce the echo wall, it refers to the surrounding the imperial vault and circular wall tall things Peidian for. The perimeter of the fence is 193.2 meters, the diameter is 61.5 meters, the wall height is 3.72 meters, and the thickness is 0.9 meters. If two people were standing in the courtyard things Peidian after the wall, all of the north wall face whisper, like to call each other like dialogue, very interesting, this is the origin of the name of the echo wall.Here is a charming center stone echo upper center has a Circular Mound Altar Stone Center, visitors are most interested in a wonderful place. When you speak softly on the center of the circle, you sound great and sympathetic. But people outside the second, Third Ring Road do not feel that way. Why? The original, this is a kind of acoustic phenomena due to its top is very smooth, the sound wave to the distance around the fence panel, can quickly be reflected. According to the acoustic expert test, the time from the sound to the sound wave and back to the stone was only zero point zero seven seconds. The speaker can not distinguish between the original and its echo, so standing in the center of the stone sound, the sound is loud echo. The feudalrulers put this phenomenon as "God acoustic vertical image", is the world peoples court in accordance with the infinite heart response, and gives the "King billion trillion from the stone" reputation.Today's tour is coming to an end. I hope it will be a permanent memory of your trip to Beijing during my stay in Tiantan. At the same time, please also bring the blessing of Tiantan to your family and friends.。

The main building is the Great Hall of worship, which is today's Hall of praying for new year. The temple of heaven has two walls: the outer wall and the inner wall. During the reign of Emperor Qianlong, the Great Hall of worship was changed into the present Hall of praying for the new year, and the roof was changed into blue glazed tiles, forming the world's largest architectural complex of worshipping heaven.In 1860, the holy land for worshiping heaven was looted by the British and French allied forces, and in 1900, it was ravaged by the Eight Power Allied forces. After the founding of new China, it became a famous tourist attraction, as well as a lot of fitness people.Now let's start our tour along the route that the emperor ascended the altar.Now we are going south along the central axis of the temple of heaven. What we are going to see is the Circular Mound Altar where the ancient emperors offered sacrifices to heaven. Yuanqiu altar has two walls, which are square outside and round inside, inline with the statement that the sky is round and the place is round. Each wall has four groups of doors, the size of the doors are not the same, this is because the middle door is dedicated to the emperor, so tall, the emperor can only enter from the left side.Other officials can only pass through the smallest door on the right. When we come to the bottom of Yuanqiu altar, we are going to climb it soon. But please count how many steps there are on each level. When you get to the top, you will find that all the orders on the altar are nine or multiples of nine. Are these all coincidences? Of course not, because the ancients believed that the number of the extreme Yang of nine. So the craftsmen used this number to give the altar the meaning of "Loftiness".Thank you for coming to the temple of heaven in Beijing. Welcome to come again next time!天坛英语导游词范文2Hello, everyone. I'm your guide. In the next few days, you can just call me season guide. First of all, welcome to this beautiful and magnificent temple of heaven! Today we mainly visit the Qigu altar, Qinian hall, Yuanqiu altar, zhaigong and other places of interest. When visiting, please throw the garbage into the dustbin, or carry plastic bags, strive to be civilized tourists!In fact, the temple of heaven is the place for the Ming and Qing emperors to "worship heaven" and "pray for the valley", which is located in the east of Zhengyang gate. The altar is round in the north and square in the south, which means "round heaven and round place". Neitan, where we are now, is divided into North and south parts. T ourists, look at the building in the north. It's called "Qigu altar". It is said that in the Qing and Ming Dynasties, because the productivity was very low at that time and the harvest was controlled by God, a special "grain praying altar" wasbuilt in the north to pray for a good harvest. Every year, the emperor prayed to God in spring to give the world a good harvest.Please follow me. We are now at the "Hall of praying for new year" in the center of the inner altar. It is located on a three story round stone platform tomb. It is a round hall with triple eaves, 38 meters high and 30 meters in diameter. The three halls have dark blue glazed tiles, which are reduced layer by layer and radiate in shape. The top is crowned with a huge gilded top. This hall has great artistic value in architecture and modeling. The white platform symbolizes white clouds, the dark blue ceiling symbolizes the sky, and the pillars, colored paintings and gilded ceiling symbolize the rosy clouds. All of these make a beautiful shape of blue sky and jade world.Tourists, look at this magnificent building in the south, the "round Mound Altar", which is specially used to worship heaven on the winter solstice. The central building is a huge round stone platform called "round mound". The total length between the two altars is 360 meters, which is higher than the ground corridor. The Danbi bridge is connected to form a 1200 meter long north-south axis of the temple of heaven, with a large area of ancient Berlin on both sides.Through the corridor, we see the building is the "Zhai Palace" on the south side of the west gate. It is said to be the residence of the emperor during fasting before praying. "Zhaigong" also got its name.After listening to my introduction, you must want to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the temple of heaven carefully, take photos and leave a message. The following time is for you, you have enough time to swim. One hour later, we are still gatheringhere. I hope you will observe the time and keep the garden clean. See you later!天坛英语导游词范文3hello everyone.I'm Liu Xueqi, the guide of the temple of heaven in Beijing. You can call me Liu. Today I will accompany you on a tour of the temple of heaven in Beijing.What we see now is the temple of heaven. The temple of heaven is the place where the emperors of Ming and Qing Dynasties worship heaven and pray for harvest. It is also the largest existing temple in China. The temple of heaven is 1700 meters long from east to west and 1600 meters long from south to north. With a total area of 2.73 million square meters, there are outer altar wall and inner altar wall. The north side is round, and the south side is square, symbolizing "a round sky and a round place".Now please follow me inside. Here is the hall of praying for new year. It is 38.2 meters high and 24.2 meters in diameter. It faces south from the north. The whole hall is made of wood. Four golden dragons are carved in it, representing the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. The rest represent twelve months and twelve hours.Further inside is the echo wall, which is made of polished bricks and covered with blue glass tiles. The echo wall has a peculiar echo effect. When one person talks against the wall and reaches the other end of one or two hundred meters, the other side can hear it clearly, which can be called strange and interesting, creating a mysterious atmosphere of "interaction between heaven and man". Let's have a try.Please look at the outside of Huiyin wall. It's a cypress over500 years old. Because the texture of the trunk is very strange, it looks like nine dragons winding around and playing, so it's called Jiulong cypress. You can take a picture with it.Dear tourists, today's one-day tour of the temple of heaven in Beijing is coming to an end. Do you have a good time? I hope I can be a tour guide for you next time.天坛英语导游词范文4Ladies and gentlemenhello everyone! We are now at the zhaoheng gate of the temple of heaven, which is the South Gate of the temple of heaven.The temple of heaven, located in the southeast of Beijing City, was originally the holy land for the emperors of Ming and Qing Dynasties to worship the heaven and pray for the valley. It is the world's largest existing architectural complex to worship the heaven.The temple of heaven was built from the 4th to 18th year of Yongle (1406-1420) of the Ming Dynasty. It was built at the same time as the Forbidden City (the Forbidden City). It took 14 years and has a history of more than 580 years. It covers an area of 273 hectares, 3.7 times larger than the Forbidden City and slightly smaller than the summer palace. The layout of the whole building is in the shape of "Hui", which is divided into two parts: the inner and outer altar, each surrounded by the altar wall. The total length of the outer altar wall is 6416 meters. Originally, there was only the west gate, which was the main gate of the temple of heaven. It was the gate that the emperor went in and out when he came to the temple of heaven for sacrifice. Today's East, South and north gates were all opened later. The total length of the inner altar wall is 3292 meters, with four "Tianmen" in the East,South, West and North. In the early Ming Dynasty, the festival of heaven and earth was held here, which was called heaven and Earth altar. In 1530, another Fangze altar (Ditan) was built in the northern suburb of Jiajing, and then the heaven and earth were sacrificed separately. From then on, it was dedicated to offering sacrifices to heaven and became a veritable Temple of heaven. Feudal emperors of all dynasties attached great importance to the activities of offering sacrifices to heaven and visited the temple of heaven twice a year. The first time was on the 15th of the first month of the lunar calendar, a grain praying ceremony was held in the hall of praying for new year to pray for the "emperor's God" to bless the harvest. The second time was on the winter solstice, when we arrived at the Yuanqiu altar to report the harvest and thank the emperor for his blessing. After the founding of new China, the temple of heaven returned to the hands of the people who were really masters of the country, and was listed as a national key cultural relics protection unit.When we go in through the south gate and walk northward, the first thing we see is the three tall stone platforms in the west of zhaohengmen, which are called the platform. There is a long pole on the stage, which is called wangdeng pole. The pole was built in 1530, the ninth year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty. The pole is nine feet and nine inches long. When offering sacrifices to heaven, each of the three lanterns has a big lantern with a diameter of six feet and a height of eight feet. The lantern is specially made, four feet long and one foot thick, and has a convex dragon pattern. It can burn for 12 hours and is called "Panlong all night treasure wax".Now in front of us is the Yuanqiu altar, commonly known as the sacrificial platform, which is worthy of the name of the templeof heaven. Built in 1530 (the ninth year of Jiajing reign of Ming Dynasty) and expanded in 1749 (the fourteenth year of Qianlong reign of Qing Dynasty), it is a three-layer stone platform surrounded by white stone railings, with a height of five meters. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was held in person by the emperor on the winter solstice every year. There are many magical and interesting views on the architectural form of Yuanqiu altar. This is an outstanding building designed by the ancient Chinese people skillfully using the principles of geometry. The mathematical calculation of various building materials is extremely accurate, including the meaning and application of "Nine", which is praised and marveled by the vast number of visitors at home and abroad.The altar is divided into three layers with nine steps on each side. Each floor is surrounded by carved white marble railings. The number of railings is nine or multiple of nine, that is, 72 in the upper layer, 108 in the middle layer and 180 in the lower layer. At the same time, the fan shaped stone slabs laid in each layer are also multiples of nine or nine. For example, the center of the top layer is a round marble (called Tianxin stone or Taiji stone). From the center stone outward, there are 9 pieces in the first ring, 18 pieces in the second ring and 81 pieces in the ninth ring; the middle layer is from 90 pieces in the tenth ring to 162 pieces in the 18th ring; the lower layer is from 171 pieces in the 19th ring to 243 pieces in the 27th ring. There are 378 "nines" in the three layers, which are 3402 pieces. At the same time, the diameter of the upper layer is 9 Zhangs (take 19), the diameter of the middle layer is 15 Zhangs (take 35), and the diameter of the lower layer is 21 Zhangs (take 37). The combined diameter of 45 Zhangs is not only a multiple of nine, but also the meaning of "Ninth FiveYear Plan".Why use nine or multiple of nine to design and build the altar? The reasons are as follows: 1. According to the legend, the emperor lives in the nine fold heaven, and uses the nine or multiple of nine to symbolize the nine fold heaven, so as to show the supreme and the greatest of the celestial bodies. 2、In ancient China, odd numbers were regarded as positive numbers, while even numbers were regarded as negative numbers. The heaven is Yang and the earth is Yin. The temple of heaven is used to offer sacrifices to heaven. It can only be built with Yang number. And "Nine" is regarded as "extreme Yang number", which is the most auspicious number. In addition to feudal superstition, this kind of design regulation reflects the superb mathematical knowledge and computational ability of craftsmen at that time, which is really amazing.From the south gate to the Yuanqiu altar, there is a burnt stove made of green glazed bricks in the south corner of the inner wall. It is the place where pine and cypress wood is burned during the sacrificial ceremony, and the memorial tablets and silk are burned after the sacrificial ceremony. There is a burying ridge beside the burnt stove. At the end of the sacrificial ceremony, the tail hair blood of the whole cattle is buried in the camp, which symbolizes the meaning of drinking blood from the ancestors. As you can see, there are eight burning stoves in front of the burnt stove. These stoves are specially used for burning pine and cypress branches, pine flowers, pine pagodas, etc. when offering sacrifices to heaven. There are also a pair of stoves in the East and west gate of the altar.Now we come to the imperial vault, which has a history of more than 400 years. The hall is 19.5 meters high and 15.6 metersin diameter at the bottom. The whole hall is supported by eight eaves columns, with no crossbeam on the top. It is made up of many bucket arches and the ceiling shrinks layer by layer, forming a beautiful dome shaped caisson. The stone platform throne in the center of the hall is the place where the God card of the emperor is placed; the stone platform on the left and right in front of the throne is the place where the ancestral tablets of the emperor are placed. The East and west hall outside the hall is the place for worshiping the sun, moon, stars, clouds, rain, wind and thunder. Now it is displayed as it is, and there are wax statues of officials offering sacrifices to heaven in the Qing Dynasty.Now I'd like to introduce the echo wall, which refers to the high circular wall surrounding the imperial vault and the East and west side halls. The perimeter of the wall is 193.2m, the diameter is 61.5m, the height is 3.72M and the thickness is 0.9m. If two people stand under the wall behind the East and west side halls in the courtyard, both face north and speak in a low voice to the wall, they can talk to each other as if they were on the phone. It's very wonderful and interesting. That's why echo wall got its name.Here is the charming echo of the round stoneThere is a round stone in the center of the upper layer of the Circular Mound Altar, which is another wonder that tourists are most interested in. When you stand on the center stone and speak softly, your voice sounds grand and resonant. However, people who stand outside the second and third ring roads do not have this feeling. Why? It turns out that this is also a kind of acoustic phenomenon: because the surface of the altar is very smooth, the sound waves can be reflected quickly after they reach the stone fence boards with equal distance around. According to the test of acoustic experts, the time frompronunciation to sound wave and back to the center stone is only 0.07 seconds. The speaker can't distinguish the original sound from the echo at all, so the resonance echo of the person standing on the center stone is especially loud. The feudal rulers described this acoustic phenomenon as "hanging from the sky", which was the boundless return and consistent response of all the people in the world to the imperial court. At the same time, they gave the name of "yizhaojing Congshi".We come out from the west of huangqiongyu, where there is an ancient cypress named jiulongbai. Its trunk is twisted and twisted, just like nine coiled dragons, so it gets its name. It is said that this ancient cypress had a history of nearly a thousand years before it was built. In the temple of heaven, pine and cypress trees with long age, big height, no withering in four seasons and lush green are widely planted. The sea of trees, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest.The road under our feet is called Danbi bridgeIt's clearly a straight and straight Avenue. Why is it also called "bridge"? Because there is a ticket hole under the road, which just forms a three-dimensional intersection with the avenue above, so it's called bridge. This is a north-south stone terrace road. The total length is 360 meters and the width is about 30 meters. The whole bridge body rises gradually from south to north. The south end is about 1 meter high and the north end is about 3 meters high. This design and construction, on the one hand, symbolizes the emperor's rising step by step, implying the meaning of rising to heaven; on the other hand, it means that there is a longdistance from the world to the sky. Danbi bridge is the main axis of the inner altar of the temple of heaven, which plays an important role in connecting two groups of buildings: the south end of the circular Hill altar and the north end of the Qigu altar. The stone road on the center line of the bridge deck is called "Shinto", and the stone roads on the left and right sides of Shinto are respectively called "royal road" and "royal road". The gods of heaven follow the "Shinto", the emperors follow the royal way, and the princes and ministers follow the royal way.At the moment, we are standing at the entrance of Jinxian gate, commonly known as "Guimenguan". Why is it called "Guimenguan"? Because before the memorial day, the "Suo Mu" and "Suo Jun" of the sacrifice house in the southwest corner of Waitan need to transport cattle, sheep, deer and rabbits from west to east from the entrance to the slaughter Pavilion. This activity is called "Jinzhu". Because all the livestock passing through this gate were slaughtered and used to make offerings, it was called "ghost gate".Continue to walk north along the Danbi bridge, and now on our left is the platform of concrete clothes, which is located on the east side of the north section of Danbi bridge and is a convex platform. This is the place where the emperor changed his coronal clothes (ceremonial clothes) when he went to the hall of praying for new year to worship the grain.In the west is zhaigong, which is located in the pines and cypresses on the south side of the inner avenue of the West Tianmen. It used to be the place where feudal emperors fasted and bathed before they came to the temple of heaven to pray for grain and worship. Zhaigong, covering an area of 40000 square meters, is a square building with a main hall, a bedroom and abell tower. It is surrounded by two walls and a moat. The buildings are exquisite and the guards are strict. When you enter the main entrance of zhaigong, you will see the majestic main hall with red walls and green tiles. It is said that this kind of green tile is used to show that the emperor did not dare to be arrogant at this time, but could only "be a minister to heaven". The hall is divided into five rooms, arched and brick structure. The whole hall does not use beams or large beams, so it is also called "no beam hall". There are two stone pavilions on the Danlong in front of the hall, and the one on the right is smaller, which is the place to put the time tablet. The one on the left is square and tall, which is called "the stone pavilion of fasting bronze man". According to historical records, during the emperor's fasting period, there was a square piece of cloth covered with yellow cloud satin, and a bronze statue one foot and five inches high. The bronze man worshipped a bamboo plate with both hands, engraved with the word "fast" to make the emperor "startling and respectful". It means that the emperor should be alert and never forget to fast attentively. There are three forms of fasting bronze man in Qing Dynasty: one is the statue of Wei Zheng, a famous official in Tang Dynasty, one is the statue of Leng Qian, a music official in early Ming Dynasty, and the other is the statue of Gang Bing, a eunuch in Ming Dynasty. It is said that these three people are famous for their uprightness and courage to remonstrate in history. This system was established in the 11th year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty, and it was also used in Qing Dynasty. According to the regulations, the bronze figure here is lengqian.Now in front of us are the hall of praying for new year and the altar of praying for grainThis is the holy place for the Ming and Qing emperors Mengchun to pray for the valley. The hall of praying for the new year adopts the structural form of upper room and lower altar. The triple eaves are folded up layer by layer and made into umbrellas. It is erected on the round altar surrounded by three layers of white stone carvings with a height of 5.6 meters and an area of 5900 square meters. The hall of praying for the new year is commonly known as the beamless hall. The whole building does not need long purlin and nails, but is completely supported and tenoned by 28 Optimus pillars and numerous Fang, Mu Dui, Jue, bolt. The hall was built in 1420, the 18th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty. It was originally known as the great sacrificial hall and was rectangular. In the ninth year of Jiajing reign in the Ming Dynasty (1530), it was changed into a round hall with triple eaves and covered with green, yellow and green tiles from top to bottom, which was renamed Daxing hall. In the 17th year of the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (175), the name was changed to today's name. At the same time, it was changed to cover with dark blue glazed tiles to symbolize the blue sky. In 1889, the hall was destroyed by thunder and fire and rebuilt the following year. The bronze cauldron and furnace displayed in front of the hall are all relics of hundreds of years ago. It is said that the number of pillars in the temple was set up according to the celestial phenomena. The four gilt pillars in the inner layer are called "Longjing pillars". They are 18.5 meters high and 1.2 meters in diameter at the bottom. They are also difficult to embrace, symbolizing the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. The 12 red pillars in the middle symbolize 12 months of a year. The outer 12 eaves pillars symbolize the 12 hours of the day. The 12 gold pillars in the middle layer and the 12 eaves pillars in the outer layer add up to 24, symbolizing the24 solar terms in a year. The golden column, eaves column and Longjing column add up to 28, symbolizing the 28 constellations in the sky. Add 8 child pillars around the caisson on the top of the palace, a total of 36, symbolizing 36 Tiangang. The Lei Gong column in the center of Baoding symbolizes the "unification" of the emperor of heaven.What we see below is Huangqian hall. It used to be the place where the tablets of God and ancestors of the emperor were placed. It is also known as the bedchamber of qigutan. Later, the banners, ceremonial guards and musical instruments used in the sacrificial ceremony were also stored here. There are many sacrificial relics in it. Now they are displayed as they are, and there are wax statues of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty for tourists to see all the year round.Located on the East and west sides of the courtyard in front of the platform of the hall of praying for the new year, are the East and west side halls, which were used to place the memorial tablets of sun, moon, star, Chen, cloud, rain, wind and thunder respectively. Now it is respectively set up to display the ancient music and etiquette of the imperial court, as well as the memorial tablets of sun, moon, star and Chen.What we see now is that the "divine kitchen" used to be a place where animals were slaughtered and sacrifices were made. Below you can see the God's storehouse, the storehouse for collecting sacrifices. Now it passes through a W-shaped corridor with 72 rooms, which plays an important role in connecting the grain praying altar, the God kitchen, the God storehouse and transporting sacrifices. The number of rooms in the corridor is exactly the same as that of 72 Disha. In the past, it is said that this is the place where Disha ghosts gather. The lantern type verticallights in the corridor are dim and gloomy. Later, the window sill was removed, which greatly changed the landscape of the corridor and became a good place for people to play.Tianquan well is located in front of the gate of shenku, which is named for its clear and sweet water. All the food and pastries used in offering sacrifices to heaven and praying for grain are made with this water.Now on our left is the seven star stone, which is located in the open field on the southeast side of the corridor. There are seven big stones and one small stone. According to legend, when Emperor Yongle of Ming Dynasty moved his capital to Beijing, he wanted to build a temple for heaven and earth, but it was difficult to find a suitable place. At this time, one night he dreamt that the Big Dipper in the sky landed here, which was called tiansuiyi. He solved the problem of indecision and ordered to build an altar here. According to the records, the seven star stone was carved and placed here in the ninth year of Jiajing reign of Ming Dynasty. Emperor Jiajing was very superstitious in Taoism. Taoists told him that the South and east of the hall of praying for new year was too empty, which was not good for his throne and life. So the seven star stone was set here to suppress Feng Shui. There is also a small stone in the northeast corner of the seven star stone, which is said to have been added by the rulers of the Qing Dynasty to commemorate the merits of their ancestors. It is located in the northeast of the seven star stone, to show that do not forget the original meaning.This is the east gate of the temple of heaven. I'll introduce you to the temple of heaven. Thank you.天坛英语导游词范文5Dear touristsWhat we are going to visit today is the temple of heaven, the place where emperors used to worship heaven. After Yongle Emperor of Ming Dynasty moved his capital to Beijing, he built the altar for worshiping heaven in the south of Beijing, which imitated the Great Hall of Nanjing, covering an area of 2.73 million square meters. The main building is the great memorial hall, which is the location of the hall of praying for new year. The temple of heaven has outer wall and inner wall. It is round in the north and square in the south.At the beginning, the temple of heaven and the temple of earth were both Temple of heaven. It was not until the temple of earth was built in Beicheng during the Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty that they were separated, and a new round Mound Altar was added for the worship of heaven in the winter of Meng Dynasty. The original Hall of great sacrifice was changed into the hall of great enjoyment, which was specially used for praying for the valley in the spring of Meng Dynasty. At that time, the roof of the hall was already triple eaves, and the blue, yellow and green tiles from top to bottom represented all things in the world. During the reign of Emperor Qianlong, the hall of Da Xiang was changed into the hall of praying for new year, and the roof tiles were changed into blue glazed tiles. Thus, we have formed the world's largest architectural complex of offering sacrifices to heaven. However, such a holy place for worshiping heaven was once looted by the British and French allied forces in 1860, and then by the Eight Allied forces in 1900. When Yuan Shikai ascended the throne in 1916, he also staged a farce of sacrificing heaven in the temple of heaven.In 1918, the temple of heaven was finally opened as a park.

All in all ,there are 12 million visitors very year. Now we are going to go along the route that leads to the alter. It will take roughly one hour. Mind you ,the emperor also walked along this route to pay tribute to the God of Heaven.(Along the Southern Sacred Road leading to the Circular Mound Altar)The largest group of architectures ever to be dedicated to Heaven ,the Temple of Heaven served as an exclusive altar for Chinese monarchs during the Ming and Qing dynasties. It was decreed that rulers of successive dynasties would place altars in their own capitals to worship Heaven and pray for good harvest. But why ?The ancient Chinese believed that Heaven was the supreme ruler of the universe and the fate of mankind ,and thus worshiping rites dedicated to Heaven came into being.The Heaven the ancient Chinese referred to was actually the Universe, or nature. In those days, there were specfic rites of worship. This was especially true during the Ming and Qing dynasties when elaborate ceremonies were held.The Temple of Heaven was built in 1420 during the reign of Emperor Youngle of the Ming Dynasty. Situated in the southern part of the city ,this grand set of structures covers an area of 273 hectares. To better symbolize heaven and earth ,the northern part of the Temple is circular while the southern part is square .The whole compound is enclosed by two walls, a square wall outside a round one. The outer area is characterized by suburban scenery, while the inner part is used for sacrifices. Theinner enclosure consists of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest and the Circular Mound Altar.(Along the Imperial Passage leading from the Southern Lattice Star Gate in front of the Circular Mound Altar) the Circular Mound Altar is enclosed by two walls ,each containing four groups of Southern Lattice Star Gate, each in turn consisting of three doors, with 24 marble doors altogether. Standing on the passage facing north, you will notice that with each pair of doors on is narrower than the other.

First, I'll give you a brief introduction of it. The Temple of Heaven is situated in the southern part of Beijing. It was first built in 1420 in the Ming Dynasty. It covers an area of 273 hectares. The Temple of Heaven is not only the largest group of temple building in China, but also the largest heaven-worshipping architecture in the world.Originally the Temple of Heaven was built according to the Temple of Heaven and Earth in Nanjing, so both heaven and earth were worshiped here, then it was called Temple of Heaven and Earth at that time. In 1530, another structure, Temple of Earth was built in the northern part of Beijing and the Heaven and Earth were worshipped separately. Since only Heaven was worshipped in here, it was renamed the Temple of Heaven.During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Temple of Heaven was the place where the emperors came to worship the God of Heaven and pray for good harvest. The emperors came here twice a year. The first time was on the 15 th day of the first lunar month. The emperor would come to the Hall of the prayer for Good Harvest and held a big ceremony to pray for a bumper harvest. The second time was on Winter Solstice, and a sacrificial ceremony would be held at the Circular Mount Altar to offer a sacrifice to the Heaven.Being a sacred place for worshipping heaven, the Temple of Heaven had been twice seriously damaged by the Anglo-French Allied Forces in 1860 and the invading troops of the eight powers in 1900.Architecturally speaking, the Temple of Heaven has two themes: the heave and the earth. The surrounding walls of theTemple of Heaven are 6 meters high with a semicircular wall to the north and square shaped wall to the south. This represents an ancient belief that the heaven was round and the earth was square. There are three main buildings in the Temple of Heaven, they are: the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, the Imperial Heavenly Vault and the Circular Mound Altar.天坛的英文导游词篇4ladies and gentlemen:welcome to the temple of heaven. (after self-introduction) preserved cultural heritages of china. there are basically two kinds of visitors who come here: local pensioners who do exercises here in the morning and evening and sightseers both from home and abroad. all in all ,there are 12 million visitors very year. now we are going to go along the route that leads to the alter. it will take roughly one hour. mind you ,the emperor also walked along this route to pay tribute to the god of heaven.the largest group of architectures ever to be dedicated to heaven ,the temple of heaven served as an exclusive altar for chinese monarchs during the ming and qing dynasties. it was decreed that rulers of successive dynasties would place altars in their own capitals to worship heaven and pray for good harvest. but why ?the ancient chinese believed that heaven was the supreme ruler of the universe and the fate of mankind,and thus worshiping rites dedicated to heaven came into being.the heaven the ancient chinese referred to was actually the universe, or nature. in those days, there were specfic rites of worship. this was especially true during the ming and qing dynasties when elaborate ceremonies were held.the temple of heaven was built in 1420 during the reign ofemperor youngle of the ming dynasty. situated in the southern part of the city ,this grand set of structures covers an area of 273 hectares. to better symbolize heaven and earth ,the northern part of the temple is circular while the southern part is square .the whole compound is enclosed by two walls, a square wall outside a round one. the outer area is characterized by suburban scenery, while the inner part is used for sacrifices. the inner enclosure consists of the hall of prayer for good harvest and the circular mound altar.the circular mound altar is enclosed by two walls ,each containing four groups of southern lattice star gate,each in turn consisting of three doors, with 24 marble doors altogether. standing on the passage facing north, you will notice that with each pair of doors on is narrower than the other. this reflects the feudal hierarchy: the wider door was reserved for monarchs,while the narrower one was used by courtiers.on the day of the ceremony ,the emperor would don his ritual costume and be ushered in by the official in charge of religious affairs. he ascended the three terraces in the forefront to pay tribute at the alter.we are now on the top terrace of the altar,or the third terrace .each terrace has a flight of 9 steps. at the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 steps. at the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 concentric rings of stone. the number of stones in the first ring is 9,in the second ,18,up to 81 in the 9th ring. even the number of carved balustrades on these terraces is a multiplee of 9. but why?according to ancient chinese philosophy, yin and yang were two opposing factors. heaven and the odd numbers belonged to yang while the earth and even numbers belonged to yin. ninewas the largest heavenly number accessible to man . what is more,the ancient people also believed that heaven consisted of nine layers and that the emperor` s abode was on the uppermost tier.once more look at the round stone in the center. the upper terrace is nine zhang (a chinese unit of length, one zhang equals 3.3 meters ) in circumference ,while the middle is 15 zhang,the lower,21 zhang. classified as yang numbers, the sum of these numerals is 45 zhang which was meant to symbolized success. what is more, by applying the concept of odd numbers and strengthening nine and its multiples, the concept of heaven was thus illustrated and realized . the concept of nine will also be mentioned when we visit some other buildings.now i will give you a brief account of what happened here annually on the inter solstice. the memorial tablet dedicated to heaven would be set up on the north side of the terrace, while tablets dedicated to the emperor `s ancestors would be enshrined on the flanks. the service would begin around 4 o` clock in the morning. all of the lanterns would be lit .in the foreground, a sacrificial calf is being barbecued. on the square in front of the altar, the emperor, under heavy escort of nearly a thousand courtiers,princes of royal blood ,musicians,dancers and uniformed soldiers, would slowly ascend the altar to offer sacrifice and pray in honor of heaven. when the service drew to a close ,the sacrifice offered in front of the memorial tablets would be incinerated .all of participants would watch the thick smoke rise upward as if they were seeing god off .music and dancing would follow .in the end ,the emperor would return to the forbidden city secure in the belief that he would be blessed and protected by heaven until the next winter solstice.it is interesting to note that ,the stone in the very middle ofthe altar was of major importance ,since it was where the emperor used to stand to say his prayer. the stone ,which is known as the god`s heart stone,is peculiar in that it is characterized by a specific acoustic phenomenon: it made the emperor` s voice clearer and louder, thus adding to the mystic atmosphere of the service .you can try this out by yourself. (proceed northward to pass through the lattice stargate) this structure is known as heaven` s storehouse. it is entered through the gate of glazed tiles. the roofing,beams,and brackets are all made of glazed tiles or bricks. this is the only structure of its kind in china today .the heaven` s storehouse was where memorial tablets dedicated to the gods were kept. douglas hurd, a former british foreigh secretary ,once said ,“god attends to his affairs on the cir4cular mound altar but stays here. ” now let` s go in to to see it (go through the left side door)(in the courtyard of heaven` s storehouse)this is the imperial vault of heaven, the main structure of heaven` s storehouse. it was built in 1530 and is 17 meters in height and 19 meters in diameter. the structure feature blue roofs topped by a gilded ball ,and carved wooden doors and windows. it is decorated with colored paintings. founded on a 3-meter-hign round marble terrace ,the building also features a gigantic carved marble ramp laid in the stone staircase leading up to the front entrance.. the ramp is carved in “two dragons playing with a pearl ” design in relief. we will enter the main hall by going up the stone staircase on the eastern side.the arch of the hall is buttressed by 16 giant pillars on two rings. on top of the pillars there are gilt brackets supporting a circular caisson ,or covered ceiling .the ceiling is characterizedby a golden coiling dragon design. the 8 pillar of the inner ring are painted scarlet and decorated with golden lotuses.to the north of the hall there is a marble pedestal. atop it ,up a wooden flight of 9 steps, is where the major tablet dedicate to heaven was enshrined. on each flank four tablets are enshrined in honor of the ancestors of the qing emperors. in the annex hall in hornor of the ancestors of the qing emperors. in the annex halls in the courtyard, there are tablets dedicated to the deities of the sun,moon ,constellation,cloud ,rain,wind and thunder.aside from exquisitely laid out architectures,heaven` s storehouse is also famous for two structures with peculiar acoustic features, i. e. the echo wall and the triple- sound stone.a mere whisper at any point close to the wall can be heard clearly on the other side, although the parties may be 40 or 50 meters apart. this is possible because the wall is round and hermetically constructed with smooth ,solid bricks.in front of the steps leading away from the halls is the triple sound stone. if you stand on the first stone and call out or clap your hands, the sound will echo once; on the second stone,the sound will be heard twice; and on the third stone, the sound will repeat three times. hence the name. (go out through the right door and stroll along the circular path nor thward)the temple of heaven is also famous for its cypress trees-there are more than 60,000 cypress trees in all,among which over 4,000 are more than one hundred years old ,adding to the solemn atmosphere of the temple .this tall cypress was planted more than 500 years ago. its thick branches and twisting trunk resembling nine coiling playful dragons; thus it is known as the nine-dragon cypress. it is said that this tree was here towelcome the monarchs. now it is here to welcome visitor from all over the world.Now we are back again on the central axis. this brick-arched gate is known as chengzhen (adopting fidelity) .this gate is the northern gate of the circular mound altar and the hall of prayer for good harvest. the hall of prayer for good harvest is situated at the extreme end of the axis. it was used by the emperor in the first month of every lunar year for services dedicated to good harvest.entering the hall of prayer for good harvest, we set foot on a raised passage 360 meters long, which the emperor also took to proceed to the hall. this broad north-south walkway, called danbiqiao (red stairway bridge), connects the two sets of main building in the temple of heaven and constitutes a single axis.the passage is divided into left, control and right paths by the cross arrangement of slabs. the central and the widest path is known as heavenly thoroughfare ,which was reserved exclusively for god; nobody,including the emperor,was allowed to set foot onto it . the emperor used the path on the east,which is known as the imperial walk. the ministers and princes used the one on the west .interesting enough ,there is no walkway left for ordinary people. this is because the temple of heaven used to be off-limits to them.contrary to appearances, this walkway is not a bridge at all . but how so ? this road is 4 meters above the ground and there is a cavern underneath that was reserved for sacrificial oxen and sheep. the cattle were slaughtered at a slaughterhouse about 500 meters away and brought here for sacrifice. all in all ,it can be said this walkway did serve as bridge and can be looked upon as the first cloverleaf in beijing.looking back at the thoroughfare, you may realize that this walk is gaining height toward its northern end. as people approach the architectural group of the hall of prayer for good harvest, the flanking groves of cypress recede and perspective widens. here you are in heaven.the marble terrace up ahead is called jufutai,or costumechanging terrace. it is located to the east of the red stairway bridge and covers a space of 25 square meters .it has marble slab balustrades. the day before the service ,officials in charge would put up a yellow satin tent on the terrace for the emperor to change out of his yellow dragon robe into blue ceremonial clothes. after the service,the emperor would return to the tentand change back into his imperial robe before returning to the palace. (proceed to the south gate of the hall of prayer for good harvest)this structure is called the gate of pray for good harvest. we can catch a slight glimpse of the central building ,the hall of prayer for good harvest, though the colonnade of the gate. a gigantic and lofty group of buildings, the complex includes the gate of prayer for good harvest,the hall of prayer for good harvest,eastern and western annex halls ,the huanqian (imperial heaven) long corridor,heaven kitchen,slaughterhouse, etc.the annex halls were symmetrically built on a 1.5-meter-hignbrick-and-marble terrace ,to set off the loftiness and magnificence of the main hall .this unique building ,38 meters in height,is characterized by a cone-shaped structure with triple eaves and a top that is crowned by a gilt ball. the roofing is made of blue glazed tiles, the color of the sky .underneath the roof,the beams and bracket are decorated with coloredpaintings. the base of the structure is a triple-tiered,circular marble terrace. at a distance, the terrace looks like a gigantic,spiraling cloud with the structure perched on top of it .today the hall of prayer for good harvest is the hallmark of beijing, which enjoys a prolonged history of civilization.the base of the hall is a triple-tiered, circular marble terrace,which is 90 meters in diameter and 6 meters in height ,covering a space of 4,000 square meters. meticulous accuracy was given to the layout of the structure. in the middle of each three-tiered flight of stairs, there is a giant marble ramp carved in cloud,dragon and phoenix designs. to set off the ramps, the top of the balustrades and downpipes are designed with corresponding floral scrolls. in southern part of each tier,a gigantic bronze incense burner is placed. sandalwood was burnt in them when rites were observed.(in front of the hall of prayer for good harvest) climbing up this marble terrace,we see the main hall,a masterpiece of ancient china. looking up you will see the caisson, or covered ceiling,characterized by complex designs of dragons and phoenixes. in and out ,the hall is decorated with colored drawing of dragons and phoenixes.without the use of steel ,cement and nail,and even without the use of big beams and crossbeams,the entire structure is supported by 28 massive wooden pillars and number of bars, laths, joints and rafters. the four central pillars, called the dragon-well pillars, are 19.2 meters high and painted with designs of composite followers, representing the four season. there are two rings of 12 scarlet pillars each. the inner ring represents the 12 months and the outer rings the 12 divisions of the day and night .between the two rings there are 24 partitionedspaces to mark the solar terms of the chinese lunar year. the pillars, 28 in number, also represent the 28 constellations in the universe- the ancient chinese believed that there were 28 constellations that made up the sky.the center of the stone-paved floor is a round marble slab,which is 88.5 centimeters in diameter. interestingly,the slab features natural black and white veins,corresponding to the dragon-phoenix design on the ceiling. this particular slab is known as the dragon-phoenix stone and is regarded as a treasure inseparable from the hall.the furnishings within the hall are placed in their original positions dating back to when emperor xianfeng ruled .in the forefront and above the throne are enshrined tablets in commemoration of heaven. on either table on each side tablets of the emperor` s ancestors were placed. each tablet is fronted by an altar. a total of 24 kinds of offering were made on it ,including soup, wine, assorted cereals, and a calf.the sacrificial rites were observed in the wee hours of the morning, sometime in the first month of the chinese lunar year. because it was still dark, candles, lanterns and torches were lit. this lighting coupled with the incense being burnt inside the hall ,helped make the ceremony both grand and mystical.by the time the service began,207 musicians and dancers would be performing on platforms outside the hall. the emperor,in his blue sacrificial robe and with an air of piety and sincerity,would walk slowly into the hall, kowtow, and offer wine and prayer in hornor of the deities and his ancestors. all of the offerings would then be taken to incinerators on the eastern side of the gate of prayer for good harvest. with this we conclude our visit to the temper of heaven. the feudal monarchs and theirsacrificial rites have long vanished in history .however,this group of magnificent and lofty structures remain as a fine testament of the ancient chinese` s ingenuity and as one of the cultural heritages of mankind.from the eastern gate of the hall of prayer for good harvest,we have now enter a 300-meter-long corridor. consisting of 72 sections, this corridor served as a connecting building between the slaughterhouse. heaven kitchen,and the main hall ,it is said that this once served as a sacrificial food production line. flanking the corridor are shopping stalls. you may find some souvenirs for your family and friend there.well ,that is all for this tour. thank you for your attention. i look forward to your next visit. good luck and bon voyage.天坛的英文导游词篇5各位游客,你们好,今天我们要参观的是以前皇帝祭天的地方——天坛。

Lord architecture is big, is also the site of QiNianDian position today. The temple of heaven has outer wall and the altar, the north is round compound has wall, the south is square, take meaning nature round place. In the beginning, heaven and offering ground is the temple of heaven, until the jiajing years in beicheng built ditan, just separate, and new MengDong HuanQiu altar, for the original big praying to the site, and great temple, instead, when MengChun specially for the mega garden just house roof was three double-hipped roof, from top to bottom blue and yellow green colors representing the earthen universe.

(proceed northward to pass through the lattice stargate) this structure is known as heaven` s storehouse. it is entered through the gate of glazed tiles. the roofing,beams,and brackets are all made of glazed tiles or bricks. this is the only structure of its kind in china today .the heaven` s storehouse was where memorial tablets dedicated to the gods were kept. douglas hurd, a former british foreigh secretary ,once said ,“god attends to his affairs on the cir4cular mound altar but stays here. ” now let` s go in to to see it (go through the left side door)(in the courtyard of heaven` s storehouse)this is the imperial vault of heaven, the main structure of heaven` s storehouse. it was built in 1530 and is 17 meters in height and 19 meters in diameter. the structure feature blue roofs topped by a gilded ball ,and carved wooden doors and windows. it is decorated with colored paintings. founded on a 3-meter-hign round marble terrace ,the building also features a gigantic carved marble ramp laid in the stone staircase leading up to the front entrance.. the ramp is carved in “two dragons playing with a pearl ” design in relief. we will enter the main hall by going up the stone staircase on the eastern side.the arch of the hall is buttressed by 16 giant pillars on two rings. on top of the pillars there are gilt brackets supporting a circular caisson ,or covered ceiling .the ceiling is characterized by a golden coiling dragon design. the 8 pillar of the inner ring are painted scarlet and decorated with golden lotuses.to the north of the hall there is a marble pedestal. atop it ,up a wooden flight of 9 steps, is where the major tablet dedicate to heaven was enshrined. on each flank four tablets are enshrinedin honor of the ancestors of the qing emperors. in the annex hall in hornor of the ancestors of the qing emperors. in the annex halls in the courtyard, there are tablets dedicated to the deities of the sun,moon ,constellation,cloud ,rain,wind and thunder.aside from exquisitely laid out architectures,heaven` s storehouse is also famous for two structures with peculiar acoustic features, i. e. the echo wall and the triple- sound stone.a mere whisper at any point close to the wall can be heard clearly on the other side, although the parties may be 40 or 50 meters apart. this is possible because the wall is round and hermetically constructed with smooth ,solid bricks.in front of the steps leading away from the halls is the triple sound stone. if you stand on the first stone and call out or clap your hands, the sound will echo once; on the second stone,the sound will be heard twice; and on the third stone, the sound will repeat three times. hence the name. (go out through the right door and stroll along the circular path nor thward)the temple of heaven is also famous for its cypress trees-there are more than 60,000 cypress trees in all,among which over 4,000 are more than one hundred years old ,adding to the solemn atmosphere of the temple .this tall cypress was planted more than 500 years ago. its thick branches and twisting trunk resembling nine coiling playful dragons; thus it is known as the nine-dragon cypress. it is said that this tree was here to welcome the monarchs. now it is here to welcome visitor from all over the world.Now we are back again on the central axis. this brick-arched gate is known as chengzhen (adopting fidelity) .this gate is the northern gate of the circular mound altar and the hall of prayerfor good harvest. the hall of prayer for good harvest is situated at the extreme end of the axis. it was used by the emperor in the first month of every lunar year for services dedicated to good harvest.entering the hall of prayer for good harvest, we set foot on a raised passage 360 meters long, which the emperor also took to proceed to the hall. this broad north-south walkway, called danbiqiao (red stairway bridge), connects the two sets of main building in the temple of heaven and constitutes a single axis.the passage is divided into left, control and right paths by the cross arrangement of slabs. the central and the widest path is known as heavenly thoroughfare ,which was reserved exclusively for god; nobody,including the emperor,was allowed to set foot onto it . the emperor used the path on the east,which is known as the imperial walk. the ministers and princes used the one on the west .interesting enough ,there is no walkway left for ordinary people. this is because the temple of heaven used to be off-limits to them.contrary to appearances, this walkway is not a bridge at all . but how so ? this road is 4 meters above the ground and there is a cavern underneath that was reserved for sacrificial oxen and sheep. the cattle were slaughtered at a slaughterhouse about 500 meters away and brought here for sacrifice. all in all ,it can be said this walkway did serve as bridge and can be looked upon as the first cloverleaf in beijing.looking back at the thoroughfare, you may realize that this walk is gaining height toward its northern end. as people approach the architectural group of the hall of prayer for good harvest, the flanking groves of cypress recede and perspective widens. here you are in heaven.the marble terrace up ahead is called jufutai,or costumechanging terrace. it is located to the east of the red stairway bridge and covers a space of 25 square meters .it has marble slab balustrades. the day before the service ,officials in charge would put up a yellow satin tent on the terrace for the emperor to change out of his yellow dragon robe into blue ceremonial clothes. after the service,the emperor would return to the tentand change back into his imperial robe before returning to the palace.

First, I'll give you a brief introduction of it. The Temple of Heaven is situated in the southern part of Beijing. It was first built in 1420 in the Ming Dynasty. It covers an area of 273 hectares. The Temple of Heaven is not only the largest group of temple building in China, but also the largest heaven-worshipping architecture in the world.Originally the Temple of Heaven was built according to the Temple of Heaven and Earth in Nanjing, so both heaven and earth were worshiped here, then it was called Temple of Heaven and Earth at that time. In 1530, another structure, Temple of Earth was built in the northern part of Beijing and the Heaven and Earth were worshipped separately. Since only Heaven was worshipped in here, it was renamed the Temple of Heaven.During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Temple of Heaven was the place where the emperors came to worship the God of Heaven and pray for good harvest. The emperors came here twice a year. The first time was on the 15 th day of the first lunar month. The emperor would come to the Hall of the prayer for Good Harvest and held a big ceremony to pray for a bumper harvest. The second time was on Winter Solstice, and a sacrificial ceremony would be held at the Circular Mount Altar to offer asacrifice to the Heaven.Being a sacred place for worshipping heaven, the Temple of Heaven had been twice seriously damaged by the Anglo-French Allied Forces in 1860 and the invading troops of the eight powers in 1900.Architecturally speaking, the Temple of Heaven has two themes: the heave and the earth. The surrounding walls of the Temple of Heaven are 6 meters high with a semicircular wall to the north and square shaped wall to the south. This represents an ancient belief that the heaven was round and the earth was square. There are three main buildings in the Temple of Heaven, they are: the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, the Imperial Heavenly Vault and the Circular Mound Altar.。
天坛导游词(英)
The Temple of HeavenThe Temple of Heaven was constructed in 1420, the 18th year of the reign of the Ming Emperor Yongle. It was the place where the emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties used to offer sacrifices to heaven and pray for a good harvest. To ancient Chinese, Heaven was an unfathomable vault. It could bring mankind not only luck, but also disaster. It was the supreme power in the world. Even emperors had to attach great importance to it and calling themselves “sons of heaven”. Being the chief altar of the five altars in Beijing, the Temple of Heaven is the largest, the finest in structure and the best-preserved complex of Chinese ancient sacrificial constructions. It has been inscribed on the World Heritage List on Dec. 2, 1998.The Temple of Heaven covers an area of about 273 hectares, it was made up of two altars in the north and south. The Circular Mound Altar in the south was the place where the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven used to be held every year on the winter solstice, while the Altar of Praying for a Good Harvest in the north used to pray for a good harvest every year in spring.The Circular Mound Altar was built in 1530. Every year on the winter solstice, the emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties would be here to perform the ceremony of worshipping Heaven. As you can see, there are two walls encircle the altar. The inner wall is round and the outer one is square which symbolize thatheaven is round and earth is square.The altar is 5 meters high. On the upper part of the altar, you can see a round slab in the center, which is surrounded by slabs. They are all 9 or its multiples. Why is it? This is because in ancient China, the highest odd number below ten or its multiples were considered the most powerful and auspicious numbers. It symbolized the Supreme Ruler of Heaven.When you reach the top terrace, don’t forget to stand on the central round stone. It was named “Heaven Heart Stone”. If you say something in a low voice on it, you can get a loud echo. The emperors came here each time to stand here and praying to the God of Heaven.The building in front of us is the Imperial Vault of Heaven. It is one of the main buildings of the Temple of Heaven. It was used to put or store the tablets of the God of Heaven. The Imperial Vault of Heaven is 22.35 meters high and 191 square meters in area. It symbolizes the vast and boundless "heaven". The blue glazed tiles on top of the hall symbolize the blue sky. The Temple of Heaven is the only place where there is this kind of tile. It is also the most valuable color in tiles. There are three doors in front of the building. The stone platform is surrounded by white stone slabs. There is a circle of eight pillars inside the hall and another circle of eight pillars outside the hall, which support the roof. The ceiling is built in bracket system in three concentric tiers. It is painted with the pattern of the dragon and phoenix. There is agolden dragon in the center of the ceiling.In The center of the hall there is a golden dragon shrine, in the shrine is placed the tablet of the God of Heaven. The God of Heaven is the main object of the worship during the reign of the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties. During The ceremony every year, the emperors would pray before the tablet of the God of Heaven and performed three kneeling and nine prostration. By the two sides of the tablet of the God of Heaven there placed the tablets of ancestors of the emperors, which were signified that the emperors had become gods after they died.The two annexes standing on the right and left of the Imperial Vault of Heaven were used to store the tablets used in the ceremony.The tablets placed in the east annex were tablets of the god of the sun, the seven north starts, the wood, fire, earth, gold and water, the twenty-eight constellations and all the stars in the sky. While those in the west annex were the tablets of the god of the moon, cloud, rain, wind and thunder. On the day of the ceremony, about two hours before daylight, these tablets together with the tablets of the God of Heaven and the emperor's ancestors were invited out to the Circular Mound altar and placed in order until the emperor came to perform the grand ceremony.The third stone in front of the hall is called the "three Echo Stone" When in comparatively quiet circumstance, if a person standing on this stone makes a call or a handclap, it producesthree echoes. Because of the special construction of the courtyard, the Echo Wall reflects the sound very well. When a sound spreads to the wall, it will reflect through the center of the courtyard to opposite side of the wall, where it reflects back again.This circular wall is called the “Echo Wall”, which constructed of tightly fitted bricks. The top of the wall is covered with blue glazed tiles. Two persons standing on the opposite sides of the wall can hear each other speaking clearly, just like talking through the telephone. That's why it is called the Echo Wall. The road we are walking on was named “Heavenly Bridge”. It’s 360 meters l ong and 30 meters wide. There are three paths on it: the left path was reserved for the emperor. The central path was for the God of Heaven while ministers used the right path. The southern end of the bridge is 1 meter high and the northern end is 4 meters high, which symbolized that the emperors step by step until they rose to heaven. When the emperor gets here, he would enter a yellow tent and change his clothes into the sacrificial costumes before the ceremony.Now, we have reached the Hall of Prayer fo r Good Harvest. It’s the central building of the Altar of Praying for Good Harvest. Today, the image of the hall has been recognized as the symbol of Beijing. The hall was first built in 1420 and was first called “The Great Sacrifice Hall”, where the sacri fices both to haven and earth were offered during the beginning years of the Ming Dynasty. In 1545, the 24th year of the reign of the Ming Emperor Jiajing, it wasrenovated. The glazed tiles on the top of the hall were blue on the upper part, yellow in the middle and green in the lower part. In 1752, the 17th year of the reign of the Qing Emperor Qianlong, it was renovated again. This time all the glazed tiles on the top the hall was changed into blue color and the hall was named “The Hall of Prayer for a G ood Harvest”. This name has been maintained till now.The hall is a cone-shaped structure with triple eaves and a gilded ball on the top. The part under the eaves is all painted with the pattern of the dragon and phoenix. It’s 38 meters high, sits on a three-tiered platform made of white marbles. It is admired not only for its majestic appearance, but also for its unique structure. The hall was constructed entirely of wood and without a single nail. The circular-shaped hall symbolizes that heaven is round while the blue glazed tiles symbolize the blue sky. The building was supported by 28 wooden pillars, each pillar has its symbolic meaning. The 4 large central pillars are called “Dragon Well Pillar”, which symbolize the 4 seasons of the year. The middle circle of 12 pillars are called “Golden Pillar”, which symbolize the 12 months of the year, while the outer circle of 12 pillars are called “Eave Pillar”, which symbolize the 12 divisions of the day and night. The middle and outer circle of 24 pillars symbolize the 24 solar terms of the year, while the 28 pillars altogether represent the 28 heavenly constellations.In the center of the floor, there is a round marble slab named“Dragon and Phoenix Stone”. It’s 88.5 centimeters in diameter. It’s so called because the grains of the marble looks like a dragon and a phoenix. It presents an interestingly symmetrical pattern with the caisson ceiling in the center of the hall.We have put on exhibit the different kinds of sacrificial utensils and restored everything according to historical of Qing Emperor Xianfeng. The tablet of God of Heaven would be placed on the throne sculptured with dragon in the center. On the stone platform in the east and west were placed the tablets of the first 8 emperors of the Qing Dynasty. The sacrificial utensils used were placed on a long table in front of each tablet as an offering. Also, a calf was put into a big wooden box before each table was sacrifices.According to the Lunar Calendar, every year in January, about 2 hours before daylight, the emperor would come here to perform the ceremony of Praying for a Good Harvest. So you can find that so many lanterns inside the hall. During the ceremony, there were music and dancing, the musicians and dancers stood in front of the door to the hall.The Firewood Oven located at the southeast corner of the courtyard, used to burn up the sacrifices offered to the God of Heaven.That’s all for the introduction. Hope you will have a pleasant journey in China.。

(After self-introduction) preserved cultural heritages of China. There are basically two kinds of visitors who come here: local pensioners who do exercises here in the morning and evening and sightseers both from home and abroad. All in all ,there are 12 million visitors very year. Now we are going to go along the route that leads to the alter. It will take roughly one hour. Mind you ,the emperor also walked along this route to pay tribute to the God of Heaven.(Along the Southern Sacred Road leading to the Circular Mound Altar)The largest group of architectures ever to be dedicated to Heaven ,the Temple of Heaven served as an exclusive altar for Chinese monarchs during the Ming and Qing dynasties. It was decreed that rulers of successive dynasties would place altars in their own capitals to worship Heaven and pray for good harvest. But why ?The ancient Chinese believed that Heaven was the supreme ruler of the universe and the fate ofmankind ,and thus worshiping rites dedicated to Heaven came into being.The Heaven the ancient Chinese referred to was actually the Universe, or nature. In those days, there were specfic rites of worship. This was especiallytrue during the Ming and Qing dynasties when elaborate ceremonies were held.The Temple of Heaven was built in 1420 during the reign of Emperor Youngle of the Ming Dynasty. Situated in the southern part of the city ,this grand set of structures covers an area of 273 hectares. To better symbolize heaven and earth ,the northern part of the Temple is circular while the southern part issquare .The whole compound is enclosed by two walls, a square wall outside a round one. The outer area is characterized by suburban scenery, while the innerpart is used for sacrifices. The inner enclosureconsists of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest and the Circular Mound Altar.(Along the Imperial Passage leading from the Southern Lattice Star Gate in front of the Circular Mound Altar)the Circular Mound Altar is enclosed by twowalls ,each containing four groups of Southern Lattice Star Gate, each in turn consisting of three doors, with 24 marble doors altogether. Standing on the passage facing north, you will notice that with each pair of doors on is narrower than the other. This reflects the feudal hierarchy: the wider door was reserved for monarchs, while the narrower one was used by courtiers.On the day of the ceremony ,the emperor would don his ritual costume and be ushered in by the officialin charge of religious affairs. He ascended the three terraces in the forefront to pay tribute at the alter.(Atop the Circular Mound Alter)we are now on the top terrace of the Altar, orthe third terrace .Each terrace has a flight of 9 steps. At the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 steps. At the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 concentric rings of stone. The number of stones in the first ring is 9, in the second ,18, up to 81 in the 9th ring. Even the number of carved balustrades on these terraces is a multiplee of 9.But why?According to an cient Chinese philosophy, yin and yang were two opposing factors. Heaven and the odd numbers belonged to yang while the Earth and even numbers belonged to yin. Nine was the largest heavenly number accessible to man . What is more, the ancient people also believed that heaven consisted of nine layers and that the emperor` s abode was on the uppermost tier.篇章2:北京天坛导游词作文文档【按住Ctrl键点此返回目录】大家好,我是这次旅游的导游,我姓*,大家可以叫我*导!现在快到目的地--北京天坛,所以我先给大家将一些注意事项:“礼貌、卫生、秩序、眼看手勿动、禁止乱涂乱画”这五点,记得哦!乘客们,旅游景点已到,请大家有秩序的下车!现在我们来到了天坛的正门,这里是皇帝前来祭祀时进出的大门。

Thefollowing time is for you, you have enough time to swim. One hour later, we arestill gathering here. I hope you will observe the time and keep the gardenclean. See you later!故宫天坛颐和园英语导游词篇2Dear touristsWhat we are going to visit today is the temple of heaven, the place whereemperors used to worship heaven. After Yongle Emperor of Ming Dynasty moved hiscapital to Beijing, he built the altar for worshiping heaven in the south ofBeijing, which imitated the Great Hall of Nanjing, covering an area of 2.73million square meters. The main building is the great memorial hall, which isthe location of the hall of praying for new year. The temple of heaven has outerwall and inner wall. It is round in the north and square in the south.At the beginning, the temple of heaven and the temple of earth were bothTemple of heaven. It was not until the temple of earth was built in Beichengduring the Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty that they were separated, and a newround Mound Altar was added for the worship of heaven in the winter of MengDynasty. The original Hall of great sacrifice was changed into the hall of greatenjoyment, which was specially used for praying for the valley in the spring ofMeng Dynasty. At that time, the roof of the hall was already triple eaves, andthe blue, yellow and green tiles from top to bottom represented all things inthe world. During the reign of Emperor Qianlong, the hall of Da Xiang waschanged into the hall of praying for new year, and the roof tiles were changedinto blue glazed tiles. Thus, we have formed the world's largest architecturalcomplex of offering sacrifices to heaven. However, such a holy place forworshiping heaven was once looted by the British and French allied forces in1860, and then by the Eight Allied forces in 1900. When Yuan Shikai ascended thethrone in 1916, he also staged a farce of sacrificing heaven in the temple ofheaven.In 1918, the temple of heaven was finally opened as a park. Afterliberation, the temple of heaven has not only become a famous touristattraction, but also an integral part of Beijing's urban green space. Not onlytourists come here, but also some elderly people who are dedicated to physicalfitness. Now let's start this tour along the route that the emperor ascended thealtar. Now we are going south along the central axis of the temple of heaven.What we 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 thesky is round and the place is round. Each wall has four groups ofLingxing gates. From the East, there are Taiyuan, zhaoheng, Guangli andChengzhen in turn. There are three gates in each group, and there are 24 intotal, which is called "Yunmen Yuli". You can notice that the size of theLingxing gate is different, because the middle gate is dedicated to God, so itis tall; the emperor can only enter through the left gate; and other officialscan only pass through the smallest gate on the right. The platform outside thegate is the place where the emperor changed his ceremonial clothes and washesbefore the ceremony, which is called the platform with clothes. When we come tothe bottom of the round hill altar, we are going to climb it soon. But I ask youto pay attention to the number of steps on each level of the altar. At thehighest level, you will find that the number of steps and guard boards on thealtar is nine or a multiple of nine. Every time you climb a floor, you have tohave nine steps. The stone in the middle of the table is called Tianxin stone,and the first circle around it is built with nine huge fan-shaped stoneslabs.故宫天坛颐和园英语导游词篇3Dear touristshello everyone!Today we are going to visit the temple of heaven, the place where theemperor worshiped heaven.The temple of heaven is a sacred hall built by Emperor Yongle of MingDynasty. The main building is the Great Hall of worship, which is today's Hallof praying for new year. The temple of heaven has two walls: the outer wall andthe inner wall. During the reign of Emperor Qianlong, the Great Hall of worshipwas changed into the present Hall of praying for the new year, and the roof waschanged into blue glazed tiles, forming the world'slargest architecturalcomplex of worshipping heaven.In 1860, the holy land for worshiping heaven was looted by the British andFrench allied forces, and in 1900, it was ravaged by the Eight Power Alliedforces. After the founding of new China, it became a famous tourist attraction,as well as a lot of fitness people.Now let's start our tour along the route that the emperor ascended thealtar.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. Yuanqiu altar has two walls, which are squareoutside and round inside, in line with the statement that the sky is round andthe place is round. Each wall has four groups of doors, the size of the doorsare not the same, this is because the middle door is dedicated to the emperor,so tall, the emperor can only enter from the left side.Other officials can only pass through the smallest door on the right. Whenwe come to the bottom of Yuanqiu altar, we are going to climb it soon. Butplease count how many steps there are on each level. When you get to the top,you will find that all the orders on the altar are nine or multiples of nine.Are these all coincidences? Of course not, because the ancients believed thatthe number of the extreme Yang of nine. So the craftsmen used this number togive the altar the meaning of "Loftiness".Thank you for coming to the temple of heaven in Beijing. Welcome to comeagain next time!故宫天坛颐和园英语导游词篇4hello everyone.I'm Liu Xueqi, the guide of the temple of heaven in Beijing.You can callme Liu. Today I will accompany you on a tour of the temple of heaven inBeijing.What we see now is the temple of heaven. The temple of heaven is the placewhere the emperors of Ming and Qing Dynasties worship heaven and pray forharvest. It is also the largest existing temple in China. The temple of heavenis 1700 meters long from east to west and 1600 meters long from south to north.With a total area of 2.73 million square meters, there are outer altar wall andinner altar wall. The north side is round, and the south side is square,symbolizing "a round sky and a round place".Now please follow me inside. Here is the hall of praying for new year. Itis 38.2 meters high and 24.2 meters in diameter. It faces south from the north.The whole hall is made of wood. Four golden dragons are carved in it,representing the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. The restrepresent twelve months and twelve hours.Further inside is the echo wall, which is made of polished bricks andcovered with blue glass tiles. The echo wall has a peculiar echo effect. Whenone person talks against the wall and reaches the other end of one or twohundred meters, the other side can hear it clearly, which can be called strangeand interesting, creating a mysterious atmosphere of "interaction between heavenand man". Let's have a try.Please look at the outside of Huiyin wall. It's a cypress over 500 yearsold. Because the texture of the trunk is very strange, it looks like ninedragons winding around and playing, so it's called Jiulong cypress. You can takea picture with it.Dear tourists, today's one-day tour of the temple of heaven in Beijing iscoming to an end. Do you have a good time? I hopeI can be a tour guide for younext time.故宫天坛颐和园英语导游词篇5Ladies and gentlemenhello everyone! We are now at the zhaoheng gate of the temple of heaven,which is the South Gate of the temple of heaven.The temple of heaven, located in the southeast of Beijing City, wasoriginally the holy land for the emperors of Ming and Qing Dynasties to worshipthe heaven and pray for the valley. It is the world's largest existingarchitectural complex to worship the heaven.The temple of heaven was built from the 4th to 18th year of Yongle(1406-1420) of the Ming Dynasty. It was built at the same time as the ForbiddenCity (the Forbidden City). It took 14 years and has a history of more than 580years. It covers an area of 273 hectares, 3.7 times larger than the ForbiddenCity and slightly smaller than the summer palace. The layout of the wholebuilding is in the shape of "Hui", which is divided into two parts: the innerand outer altar, each surrounded by the altar wall. The total length of theouter altar wall is 6416 meters. Originally, there was only the west gate, whichwas the main gate of the temple of heaven. It was the gate that the emperor wentin and out when he came to the temple of heaven for sacrifice. T oday's East,South and north gates were all opened later. The total length of the inner altarwall is 3292 meters, with four "Tianmen" in the East, South, West and North. Inthe early Ming Dynasty, the festival of heaven and earth was held here, whichwas called heaven and Earth altar. In 1530, another Fangze altar (Ditan) wasbuilt in the northern suburb of Jiajing, and then the heaven and earth weresacrificed separately. From then on, it was dedicated tooffering sacrifices toheaven and became a veritable Temple of heaven. Feudal emperors of all dynastiesattached great importance to the activities of offering sacrifices to heaven andvisited the temple of heaven twice a year. The first time was on the 15th of thefirst month of the lunar calendar, a grain praying ceremony was held in the hallof praying for new year to pray for the "emperor's God" to bless the harvest.The second time was on the winter solstice, when we arrived at the Yuanqiu altarto report the harvest and thank the emperor for his blessing. After the foundingof new China, the temple of heaven returned to the hands of the people who werereally masters of the country, and was listed as a national key cultural relicsprotection unit.When we go in through the south gate and walk northward, the first thing wesee is the three tall stone platforms in the west of zhaohengmen, which arecalled the platform. There is a long pole on the stage, which is called wangdengpole. The pole was built in 1530, the ninth year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty. Thepole is nine feet and nine inches long. When offering sacrifices to heaven, eachof the three lanterns has a big lantern with a diameter of six feet and a heightof eight feet. The lantern is specially made, four feet long and one foot thick,and has a convex dragon pattern. It can burn for 12 hours and is called "Panlongall night treasure wax".Now in front of us is the Yuanqiu altar, commonly known as the sacrificialplatform, which is worthy of the name of the temple of heaven. Built in 1530(the ninth year of Jiajing reign of Ming Dynasty) and expanded in 1749 (thefourteenth year of Qianlong reign of Qing Dynasty), it is a three-layer stoneplatform surrounded by white stone railings, with a height of five meters. Inthe Ming and Qing Dynasties, the ceremony of offeringsacrifices to heaven washeld in person by the emperor on the winter solstice every year. There are manymagical and interesting views on the architectural form of Yuanqiu altar. Thisis an outstanding building designed by the ancient Chinese people skillfullyusing the principles of geometry. The mathematical calculation of variousbuilding materials is extremely accurate, including the meaning and applicationof "Nine", which is praised and marveled by the vast number of visitors at homeand abroad.The altar is divided into three layers with nine steps on each side. Eachfloor is surrounded by carved white marble railings. The number of railings isnine or multiple of nine, that is, 72 in the upper layer, 108 in the middlelayer and 180 in the lower layer. At the same time, the fan shaped stone slabslaid in each layer are also multiples of nine or nine. For example, the centerof the top layer is a round marble (called Tianxin stone or Taiji stone). Fromthe center stone outward, there are 9 pieces in the first ring, 18 pieces in thesecond ring and 81 pieces in the ninth ring; the middle layer is from 90 piecesin the tenth ring to 162 pieces in the 18th ring; the lower layer is from 171pieces in the 19th ring to 243 pieces in the 27th ring. There are 378 "nines" inthe three layers, which are 3402 pieces. At the same time, the diameter of theupper layer is 9 Zhangs (take 19), the diameter of the middle layer is 15 Zhangs(take 35), and the diameter of the lower layer is 21 Zhangs (take 37). Thecombined diameter of 45 Zhangs is not only a multiple of nine, but also themeaning of "Ninth Five Year Plan".Why use nine or multiple of nine to design and build the altar? The reasonsare as follows: 1. According to the legend, the emperor lives in the nine foldheaven, and uses the nine or multiple of nine to symbolize the nine fold heaven,so as to showthe supreme and the greatest of the celestial bodies. 2、Inancient China, odd numbers were regarded as positive numbers, while even numberswere regarded as negative numbers. The heaven is Yang and the earth is Yin. Thetemple of heaven is used to offer sacrifices to heaven. It can only be builtwith Yang number. And "Nine" is regarded as "extreme Yang number", which is themost auspicious number. In addition to feudal superstition, this kind of designregulation reflects the superb mathematical knowledge and computational abilityof craftsmen at that time, which is really amazing.From the south gate to the Yuanqiu altar, there is a burnt stove made ofgreen glazed bricks in the south corner of the inner wall. It is the place wherepine and cypress wood is burned during the sacrificial ceremony, and thememorial tablets and silk are burned after the sacrificial ceremony. There is aburying ridge beside the burnt stove. At the end of the sacrificial ceremony,the tail hair blood of the whole cattle is buried in the camp, which symbolizesthe meaning of drinking blood from the ancestors. As you can see, there areeight burning stoves in front of the burnt stove. These stoves are speciallyused for burning pine and cypress branches, pine flowers, pine pagodas, etc.when offering sacrifices to heaven. There are also a pair of stoves in the Eastand west gate of the altar.Now we come to the imperial vault, which has a history of more than 400years. The hall is 19.5 meters high and 15.6 meters in diameter at the bottom.The whole hall is supported by eight eaves columns, with no crossbeam on thetop. It is made up of many bucket arches and the ceiling shrinks layer by layer,forming a beautiful dome shaped caisson. The stone platform throne in the centerof the hall is the place where the God card of theemperor is placed; the stoneplatform on the left and right in front of the throne is the place where theancestral tablets of the emperor are placed. The East and west hall outside thehall is the place for worshiping the sun, moon, stars, clouds, rain, wind andthunder. Now it is displayed as it is, and there are wax statues of officialsoffering sacrifices to heaven in the Qing Dynasty.Now I'd like to introduce the echo wall, which refers to the high circularwall surrounding the imperial vault and the East and west side halls. Theperimeter of the wall is 193.2m, the diameter is 61.5m, the height is 3.72M andthe thickness is 0.9m. If two people stand under the wall behind the East andwest side halls in the courtyard, both face north and speak in a low voice tothe wall, they can talk to each other as if they were on the phone. It's verywonderful and interesting. That's why echo wall got its name.Here is the charming echo of the round stoneThere is a round stone in the center of the upper layer of the CircularMound Altar, which is another wonder that tourists are most interested in. Whenyou stand on the center stone and speak softly, your voice sounds grand andresonant. However, people who stand outside the second and third ring roads donot have this feeling. Why? It turns out that this is also a kind of acousticphenomenon: because the surface of the altar is very smooth, the sound waves canbe reflected quickly after they reach the stone fence boards with equal distancearound. According to the test of acoustic experts, the time from pronunciationto sound wave and back to the center stone is only 0.07 seconds. The speakercan't distinguish the original sound from the echo at all, so the resonance echoof the person standing on the center stone is especially loud. The feudal rulersdescribed this acoustic phenomenon as "hanging from the sky", which was theboundlessreturn and consistent response of all the people in the world to theimperial court. At the same time, they gave the name of "yizhaojingCongshi".We come out from the west of huangqiongyu, where there is an ancientcypress named jiulongbai. Its trunk is twisted and twisted, just like ninecoiled dragons, so it gets its name. It is said that this ancient cypress had ahistory of nearly a thousand years before it was built. In the temple of heaven,pine and cypress trees with long age, big height, no withering in four seasonsand lush green are widely planted. The sea of trees, the forest, the forest, theforest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest,the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, theforest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest,the forest, the forest.The road under our feet is called Danbi bridgeIt's clearly a straight and straight Avenue. Why is it also called"bridge"? Because there is a ticket hole under the road, which just forms athree-dimensional intersection with the avenue above, so it's called bridge.This is a north-south stone terrace road. The total length is 360 meters and thewidth is about 30 meters. The whole bridge body rises gradually from south tonorth. The south end is about 1 meter high and the north end is about 3 metershigh. This design and construction, on the one hand, symbolizes the emperor'srising step by step, implying the meaning of rising to heaven; on the otherhand, it means that there is a long distance from the world to the sky. Danbibridge is the main axis of the inner altar of the temple of heaven, which playsan important role in connecting two groups of buildings: the south end of thecircular Hill altar and the north end of the Qigu altar. The stone road on thecenter line of the bridge deck iscalled "Shinto", and the stone roads on theleft and right sides of Shinto are respectively called "royal road" and "royalroad". The gods of heaven follow the "Shinto", the emperors follow the royalway, and the princes and ministers follow the royal way.At the moment, we are standing at the entrance of Jinxian gate, commonlyknown as "Guimenguan". Why is it called "Guimenguan"? Because before thememorial day, the "Suo Mu" and "Suo Jun" of the sacrifice house in the southwestcorner of Waitan need to transport cattle, sheep, deer and rabbits from west toeast from the entrance to the slaughter Pavilion. This activity is called"Jinzhu". Because all the livestock passing through this gate were slaughteredand used to make offerings, it was called "ghost gate".Continue to walk north along the Danbi bridge, and now on our left is theplatform of concrete clothes, which is located on the east side of the northsection of Danbi bridge and is a convex platform. This is the place where theemperor changed his coronal clothes (ceremonial clothes) when he went to thehall of praying for new year to worship the grain.In the west is zhaigong, which is located in the pines and cypresses on thesouth side of the inner avenue of the West Tianmen. It used to be the placewhere feudal emperors fasted and bathed before they came to the temple of heavento pray for grain and worship. Zhaigong, covering an area of 40000 squaremeters, is a square building with a main hall, a bedroom and a bell tower. It issurrounded by two walls and a moat. The buildings are exquisite and the guardsare strict. When you enter the main entrance of zhaigong, you will see themajestic main hall with red walls and green tiles. It is said that this kind ofgreen tile is used to show that the emperor did not dare to be arrogant atthistime, but could only "be a minister to heaven". The hall is divided into fiverooms, arched and brick structure. The whole hall does not use beams or largebeams, so it is also called "no beam hall". There are two stone pavilions on theDanlong in front of the hall, and the one on the right is smaller, which is theplace to put the time tablet. The one on the left is square and tall, which iscalled "the stone pavilion of fasting bronze man". According to historicalrecords, during the emperor's fasting period, there was a square piece of clothcovered with yellow cloud satin, and a bronze statue one foot and five incheshigh. The bronze man worshipped a bamboo plate with both hands, engraved withthe word "fast" to make the emperor "startling and respectful". It means thatthe emperor should be alert and never forget to fast attentively. There arethree forms of fasting bronze man in Qing Dynasty: one is the statue of WeiZheng, a famous official in Tang Dynasty, one is the statue of Leng Qian, amusic official in early Ming Dynasty, and the other is the statue of Gang Bing,a eunuch in Ming Dynasty. It is said that these three people are famous fortheir uprightness and courage to remonstrate in history. This system wasestablished in the 11th year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty, and it was also used inQing Dynasty. According to the regulations, the bronze figure here islengqian.Now in front of us are the hall of praying for new year and the altar ofpraying for grainThis is the holy place for the Ming and Qing emperors Meng chun to pray forthe valley. The hall of praying for the new year adopts the structural form ofupper room and lower altar. The triple eaves are folded up layer by layer andmade into umbrellas. It is erected on the round altar surrounded by three layersof white stone carvings with a height of 5.6 meters and an area of 5900squaremeters. The hall of praying for the new year is commonly known as the beamlesshall. The whole building does not need long purlin and nails, but is completelysupported and tenoned by 28 Optimus pillars and numerous Fang, Mu Dui, Jue,bolt. The hall was built in 1420, the 18th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty.It was originally known as the great sacrificial hall and was rectangular. Inthe ninth year of Jiajing reign in the Ming Dynasty (1530), it was changed intoa round hall with triple eaves and covered with green, yellow and green tilesfrom top to bottom, which was renamed Daxing hall. In the 17th year of the reignof Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (175), the name was changed to today'sname. At the same time, it was changed to cover with dark blue glazed tiles tosymbolize the blue sky. In 1889, the hall was destroyed by thunder and fire andrebuilt the following year. The bronze cauldron and furnace displayed in frontof the hall are all relics of hundreds of years ago. It is said that the numberof pillars in the temple was set up according to the celestial phenomena. Thefour gilt pillars in the inner layer are called "Longjing pillars". They are18.5 meters high and 1.2 meters in diameter at the bottom. They are alsodifficult to embrace, symbolizing the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn andwinter. The 12 red pillars in the middle symbolize 12 months of a year. Theouter 12 eaves pillars symbolize the 12 hours of the day. The 12 gold pillars inthe middle layer and the 12 eaves pillars in the outer layer add up to 24,symbolizing the 24 solar terms in a year. The golden column, eaves column andLongjing column add up to 28, symbolizing the 28 constellations in the sky. Add8 child pillars around the caisson on the top of the palace, a total of 36,symbolizing 36 Tiangang. The Lei Gong column in the center of Baoding symbolizesthe "unification" of the emperor ofheaven.What we see below is Huangqian hall. It used to be the place where thetablets of God and ancestors of the emperor were placed. It is also known as thebedchamber of qigutan. Later, the banners, ceremonial guards and musicalinstruments used in the sacrificial ceremony were also stored here. There aremany sacrificial relics in it. Now they are displayed as they are, and there arewax statues of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty for tourists to see all the yearround.Located on the East and west sides of the courtyard in front of theplatform of the hall of praying for the new year, are the East and west sidehalls, which were used to place the memorial tablets of sun, moon, star, Chen,cloud, rain, wind and thunder respectively. Now it is respectively set up todisplay the ancient music and etiquette of the imperial court, as well as thememorial tablets of sun, moon, star and Chen.What we see now is that the "divine kitchen" used to be a place whereanimals were slaughtered and sacrifices were made. Below you can see the God'sstorehouse, the storehouse for collecting sacrifices. Now it passes through aW-shaped corridor with 72 rooms, which plays an important role in connecting thegrain praying altar, the God kitchen, the God storehouse and transportingsacrifices. The number of rooms in the corridor is exactly the same as that of72 Disha. In the past, it is said that this is the place where Disha ghostsgather. The lantern type vertical lights in the corridor are dim and ter, the window sill was removed, which greatly changed the landscape of thecorridor and became a good place for people to play.Tianquan well is located in front of the gate of shenku, which is named forits clear and sweet water.

语文迷小编为您分享北京天坛英文导游词,欢迎阅读!(Inside the South Gate of the Temple of Heaven)Ladies and Gentlemen:Welcome to the temple of Heaven. (After self-introduction) preserved cultural heritages of China. There are basically two kinds of visitors who come here: local pensioners who do exercises here in the morning and evening and sightseers both from home and abroad. All in all ,there are 12 million visitors very year. Now we are going to go along the route that leads to the alter. It will take roughly one hour. Mind you ,the emperor also walked along this route to pay tribute to the God of Heaven.(Along the Southern Sacred Road leading to the Circular Mound Altar)The largest group of architectures ever to be dedicated to Heaven ,the Temple of Heaven served as an exclusive altar for Chinese monarchs during the Ming and Qing dynasties. It was decreed that rulers of successive dynasties would place altars in their own capitals to worship Heaven and pray for good harvest. But why ?The ancient Chinese believed that Heaven was the supreme ruler of the universe and the fate of mankind ,and thus worshiping rites dedicated to Heaven came into being.The Heaven the ancient Chinese referred to was actually the Universe, or nature. In those days, there were specfic rites of worship. This was especially true during the Ming and Qing dynasties when elaborate ceremonies were held.The Temple of Heaven was built in 1420 during the reign ofEmperor Youngle of the Ming Dynasty. Situated in the southern part of the city ,this grand set of structures covers an area of 273 hectares. To better symbolize heaven and earth ,the northern part of the Temple is circular while the southern part is square .The whole compound is enclosed by two walls, a square wall outside a round one. The outer area is characterized by suburban scenery, while the inner part is used for sacrifices. The inner enclosure consists of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest and the Circular Mound Altar.(Along the Imperial Passage leading from the Southern Lattice Star Gate in front of the Circular Mound Altar) the Circular Mound Altar is enclosed by two walls ,each containing four groups of Southern Lattice Star Gate, each in turn consisting of three doors, with 24 marble doors altogether. Standing on the passage facing north, you will notice that with each pair of doors on is narrower than the other. This reflects the feudal hierarchy: the wider door was reserved for monarchs, while the narrower one was used by courtiers.On the day of the ceremony ,the emperor would don his ritual costume and be ushered in by the official in charge of religious affairs. He ascended the three terraces in the forefront to pay tribute at the alter.(Atop the Circular Mound Alter)we are now on the top terrace of the Altar, or the third terrace .Each terrace has a flight of 9 steps. At the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 steps. At the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 concentric rings of stone. The number of stones in the first ring is 9, in the second ,18, up to 81 in the 9th ring. Even the number of carved balustrades on these terraces is a multiplee of 9. But why?According to ancient Chinese philosophy, yin and yang were two opposing factors. Heaven and the odd numbers belonged to yang while the Earth and even numbers belonged to yin. Nine was the largest heavenly number accessible to man . What is more, the ancient people also believed that heaven consisted of nine layers and that the emperor` s abode was on the uppermost tier.Once more look at the round stone in the center. The upper terrace is nine zhang (a Chinese unit of length, one zhang equals 3.3 meters ) in circumference ,while the middle is 15 zhang, the lower, 21 zhang. Classified as yang numbers, the sum of these numerals is 45 zhang which was meant to symbolized success. What is more, by applying the concept of odd numbers and strengthening nine and its multiples, the concept of heaven was thus illustrated and realized . The concept of nine will also be mentioned when we visit some other buildings.Now I will give you a brief account of what happened here annually on the Inter Solstice. The memorial tablet dedicated to Heaven would be set up on the north side of the terrace, while tablets dedicated to the emperor `s ancestors would be enshrined on the flanks. The service would begin around 4 o` clock in the morning. All of the lanterns would be lit .In the foreground, a sacrificial calf is being barbecued. On the square in front of the altar, the emperor, under heavy escort of nearly a thousand courtiers, princes of royal blood ,musicians, dancers and uniformed soldiers, would slowly ascend the altar to offer sacrifice and pray in honor of Heaven. When the service drew to a close ,the sacrifice offered in front of the memorial tablets would be incinerated .All of participants would watch the thick smoke rise upward as if they were seeing God off .Music anddancing would follow .In the end ,the emperor would return to the Forbidden City secure in the belief that he would be blessed and protected by Heaven until the next winter Solstice.It is interesting to note that ,the stone in the very middle of the altar was of major importance ,since it was where the emperor used to stand to say his prayer. The stone ,which is known as the God`s heart Stone, is peculiar in that it is characterized by a specific acoustic phenomenon: it made the emperor` s voice clearer and louder, thus adding to the mystic atmosphere of the service .You can try this out by yourself. (Proceed northward to pass through the Lattice StarGate) (In front of the Gate of glazed tiles)this structure is known as Heaven` s Storehouse. It is entered through the Gate of glazed Tiles. The roofing ,beams, and brackets are all made of glazed tiles or bricks. This is the only structure of its kind in china today .the Heaven` s Storehouse was where memorial tablets dedicated to the gods were kept. Douglas Hurd, a former British foreigh secretary ,once said , “God attends to His affairs on the Cir4cular Mound Altar but stays here. ” Now let` s go in to to see it (Go through the left side door)(In the courtyard of Heaven` s Storehouse)this is the Imperial Vault of Heaven, the main structure of Heaven` s Storehouse. It was built in 1530 and is 17 meters in height and 19 meters in diameter. The structure feature blue roofs topped by a gilded ball ,and carved wooden doors and windows. It is decorated with colored paintings. Founded on a 3-meter-hign round marble terrace ,the building also features a gigantic carved marble ramp laid in the stone staircase leading up to the front entrance.. The ramp is carved in “Two dragonsPlaying wit h a pearl ” design in relief. We will enter the main hall by going up the stone staircase on the eastern side.(On the marble terrace of the main hall)the arch of the hall is buttressed by 16 giant pillars on two rings. On top of the pillars there are gilt brackets supporting a circular caisson ,or covered ceiling .The ceiling is characterized by a golden coiling dragon design. The 8 pillar of the inner ring are painted scarlet and decorated with golden lotuses.To the north of the hall there is a marble pedestal. Atop it ,up a wooden flight of 9 steps, is where the major tablet dedicate to Heaven was enshrined. On each flank four tablets are enshrined in honor of the ancestors of the Qing emperors. In the annex hall in hornor of the ancestors of the Qing emperors. In the annex halls in the courtyard, there are tablets dedicated to the deities of the sun, moon ,constellation, cloud ,rain, wind and thunder.(Echo Wall and Triple –sound Stones)。

下面是橙子为你带来的天坛中英双语导游词,欢迎参考!天坛中文导游词篇一各位游客,我们今天所要参观的就是以前皇帝祭天的地方——天坛。
明朝永乐皇帝迁都北京以后,在北京南城仿照南京的大祀殿建立了这作用于祭天的圣坛,占地面积达到了273万平方米。
主建筑是大祀殿,也就是今天祈年殿的位置上。
天坛有外坛墙和内坛墙,北面是圆形,南面是方形,取意天圆地方。
在一开始,祭天和祭地都是天坛,直到明嘉靖年间在北城修建了地坛,才分开的,并且新增了圜丘坛,用于孟冬祭天,把原来的大祀殿改为大享殿,专门用于孟春祈谷,当时殿宇屋顶已经是三重檐了,从上至下的蓝黄绿三色瓦分别代表了天地万物。
而在乾隆年间,有将大享殿改为现在的祈年殿,而将屋顶瓦片都改成了蓝色的琉璃瓦。
从而形成了今天我们所看到的这个世界上最大的祭天建筑群。
可是这样一个祭天圣地,却也曾经在1860年时遭到英法联军的洗劫,继而在1920xx年的时候又遭到了八国联军的蹂躏。
在1920xx 年袁世凯登基的时候也曾经在天坛上演了一出祭天的闹剧。
在1920xx 1 / 19年,天坛最终还是以公园开放。
解放以后天坛不仅成了著名的旅游景点,而且还是北京城市绿地的组成部分,来这里的不光是旅游者,还不乏一些专门为了强身健体的老人们。
现在就让我们沿着当年皇帝登坛的路线开始此次游览。
说完了神坛的奇妙,我在给您介绍一下祭天大典的盛况。
到了每年的冬至,皇帝就要在这里祭天。
在大典前两天,皇帝要在故宫里进行斋戒,而到了第三天,也就是冬至前一天,就要到天坛的斋宫进行斋戒。
冬至那天,在日出前七刻,现在的凌晨四点多,奏报时辰,皇帝起驾,斋宫东北角的钟楼开始鸣钟。
到具服台盥洗更衣,神牌都送到台面相应的位置,也就是七组神位,称作七幄;在圜丘前燔柴炉上放一只牛犊,用松枝燔烧,西南的望灯杆望灯高悬,点燃蟠龙通宵宝蜡,台南广场上排列着奏乐队,配合着中和韶乐,在文武百官的陪同下,祭天大典就正式开始了,皇帝由南棂星左门登坛,这时钟声停止,到了第二层南侧拜位站好后,听候司赞人报仪程。

故宫天坛颐和园英语导游词范文天坛英语导游词范文1Dear touristshello everyone!Today we are going to visit the temple of heaven, the place where the emperor worshiped heaven.The temple of heaven is a sacred hall built by Emperor Yongle of Ming Dynasty. The main building is the Great Hall of worship, which is todays Hall of praying for new year. The temple of heaven has two walls: the outer wall and the inner wall. During the reign of Emperor Qianlong, the Great Hall of worship was changed into the present Hall of praying for the new year, and the roof was changed into blue glazed tiles, forming the worlds largest architectural complex of worshipping heaven.In 1860, the holy land for worshiping heaven was looted by the British and French allied forces, and in 1900, it was ravaged by the Eight Power Allied forces. After the founding of new China, it became a famous tourist attraction, as well as a lot of fitness people.Now lets start our tour along the route that the emperor ascended the altar.Now we are going south along the central axis of the temple of heaven. What we are going to see is the Circular Mound Altar where the ancient emperors offered sacrifices to heaven. Yuanqiu altar has two walls, which are square outside and round inside, in line with the statement that the sky is round and the place is round. Each wall has four groups of doors, the size of the doors are not the same, this is because the middle door is dedicated to the emperor, so tall, the emperor can only enter from the left side.Other officials can only pass through the smallest door on the right. When we come to the bottom of Yuanqiu altar, we are going to climb it soon. But please count how many steps there are on each level. When you get to the top, you will find that all the orders on the altar are nine or multiples of nine. Are these all coincidences? Of course not, because the ancients believed that the number ofthe extreme Yang of nine. So the craftsmen used this number to give the altar the meaning of "Loftiness".Thank you for coming to the temple of heaven in Beijing. Welcome to come again next time!天坛英语导游词范文2Hello, everyone. Im your guide. In the next few days, you can just call me season guide. First of all, welcome to this beautiful and magnificent temple of heaven! Today we mainly visit the Qigu altar, Qinian hall, Yuanqiu altar, zhaigong and other places of interest. When visiting, please throw the garbage into the dustbin, or carry plastic bags, strive to be civilized tourists!In fact, the temple of heaven is the place for the Ming and Qing emperors to "worship heaven" and "pray for the valley", which is located in the east of Zhengyang gate. The altar is round in the north and square in the south, which means "round heaven and round place". Neitan, where we are now, is divided into North and south parts. Tourists, look at the building in the north. Its called "Qigu altar". It is said that in the Qing and Ming Dynasties, because the productivity was very low at that time and the harvest was controlled by God, a special "grain praying altar" was built in the north to pray for a good harvest. Every year, the emperor prayed to God in spring to give the world a good harvest.Please follow me. We are now at the "Hall of praying for new year" in the center of the inner altar. It is located on a three story round stone platform tomb. It is a round hall with triple eaves, 38 meters high and 30 meters in diameter. The three halls have darkblue glazed tiles, which are reduced layer by layer and radiate in shape. The top is crowned with a huge gilded top. This hall has great artistic value in architecture and modeling. The white platform symbolizes white clouds, the dark blue ceiling symbolizes the sky, and the pillars, colored paintings and gilded ceiling symbolize the rosy clouds. All of these make a beautiful shape of blue sky and jade world.Tourists, look at this magnificent building in the south, the "round Mound Altar", which is specially used to worship heaven on the winter solstice. The central building is a huge round stone platform called "round mound". The total length between the two altars is 360 meters, which is higher than the ground corridor. The Danbi bridge is connected to form a 1200 meter long north-south axis of the temple of heaven, with a large area of ancient Berlin on both sides.Through the corridor, we see the building is the "Zhai Palace" on the south side of the west gate. It is said to be the residence of the emperor during fasting before praying. "Zhaigong" also got its name.After listening to my introduction, you must want to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the temple of heaven carefully, take photosand leave a message. The following time is for you, you have enough time to swim. One hour later, we are still gathering here. I hope you will observe the time and keep the garden clean. See you later!天坛英语导游词范文3hello everyone.Im Liu Xueqi, the guide of the temple of heaven in Beijing. You can call me Liu. Today I will accompany you on a tour of the temple of heaven in Beijing.What we see now is the temple of heaven. The temple of heaven is the place where the emperors of Ming and Qing Dynasties worship heaven and pray for harvest. It is also the largest existing temple in China. The temple of heaven is 1700 meters long from east to west and 1600 meters long from south to north. With a total area of 2.73 million square meters, there are outer altar wall and inner altar wall. The north side is round, and the south side is square, symbolizing "a round sky and a round place".Now please follow me inside. Here is the hall of praying for new year. It is 38.2 meters high and 24.2 meters in diameter. It faces south from the north. The whole hall is made of wood. Fourgolden dragons are carved in it, representing the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. The rest represent twelve months and twelve hours.Further inside is the echo wall, which is made of polished bricks and covered with blue glass tiles. The echo wall has a peculiar echo effect. When one person talks against the wall and reaches the other end of one or two hundred meters, the other side can hear it clearly, which can be called strange and interesting, creating a mysterious atmosphere of "interaction between heaven and man". Lets have a try.Please look at the outside of Huiyin wall. Its a cypress over 500 years old. Because the texture of the trunk is very strange, it looks like nine dragons winding around and playing, so its called Jiulong cypress. You can take a picture with it.Dear tourists, todays one-day tour of the temple of heaven in Beijing is coming to an end. Do you have a good time? I hope I can be a tour guide for you next time.天坛英语导游词范文4Ladies and gentlemenhello everyone! We are now at the zhaoheng gate of the temple of heaven, which is the South Gate of the temple of heaven.The temple of heaven, located in the southeast of Beijing City, was originally the holy land for the emperors of Ming and Qing Dynasties to worship the heaven and pray for the valley. It is the worlds largest existing architectural complex to worship the heaven.The temple of heaven was built from the 4th to 18th year of Yongle (1406-1420) of the Ming Dynasty. It was built at the same time as the Forbidden City (the Forbidden City). It took 14 years and has a history of more than 580 years. It covers an area of 273 hectares, 3.7 times larger than the Forbidden City and slightly smaller than the summer palace. The layout of the whole building is in the shape of "Hui", which is divided into two parts: the inner and outer altar, each surrounded by the altar wall. The total length of the outer altar wall is 6416 meters. Originally, there was only the west gate, which was the main gate of the temple of heaven. It was the gate that the emperor went in and out when he came to the temple of heaven for sacrifice. Todays East, South and north gates were all opened later. The total length of the inner altar wall is 3292 meters, with four "Tianmen" in the East, South, West and North. Inthe early Ming Dynasty, the festival of heaven and earth was held here, which was called heaven and Earth altar. In 1530, another Fangze altar (Ditan) was built in the northern suburb of Jiajing, and then the heaven and earth were sacrificed separately. From then on, it was dedicated to offering sacrifices to heaven and became a veritable Temple of heaven. Feudal emperors of all dynasties attached great importance to the activities of offering sacrifices to heaven and visited the temple of heaven twice a year. The first time was on the 15th of the first month of the lunar calendar, a grain praying ceremony was held in the hall of praying for new year to pray for the "emperors God" to bless the harvest. The second time was on the winter solstice, when we arrived at the Yuanqiu altar to report the harvest and thank the emperor for his blessing. After the founding of new China, the temple of heaven returned to the hands of the people who were really masters of the country, and was listed as a national key cultural relics protection unit.When we go in through the south gate and walk northward, the first thing we see is the three tall stone platforms in the west of zhaohengmen, which are called the platform. There is a long pole on the stage, which is called wangdeng pole. The pole was built in 1530, the ninth year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty. The pole is nine feet and nine inches long. When offering sacrifices to heaven, each ofthe three lanterns has a big lantern with a diameter of six feet and a height of eight feet. The lantern is specially made, four feet long and one foot thick, and has a convex dragon pattern. It can burn for 12 hours and is called "Panlong all night treasure wax".Now in front of us is the Yuanqiu altar, commonly known as the sacrificial platform, which is worthy of the name of the temple of heaven. Built in 1530 (the ninth year of Jiajing reign of Ming Dynasty) and expanded in 1749 (the fourteenth year of Qianlong reign of Qing Dynasty), it is a three-layer stone platform surrounded by white stone railings, with a height of five meters. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was held in person by the emperor on the winter solstice every year. There are many magical and interesting views on the architectural form of Yuanqiu altar. This is an outstanding building designed by the ancient Chinese people skillfully using the principles of geometry. The mathematical calculation of various building materials is extremely accurate, including the meaning and application of "Nine", which is praised and marveled by the vast number of visitors at home and abroad.The altar is divided into three layers with nine steps on each side. Each floor is surrounded by carved white marble railings. Thenumber of railings is nine or multiple of nine, that is, 72 in the upper layer, 108 in the middle layer and 180 in the lower layer. At the same time, the fan shaped stone slabs laid in each layer are also multiples of nine or nine. For example, the center of the top layer is a round marble (called Tianxin stone or Taiji stone). From the center stone outward, there are 9 pieces in the first ring, 18 pieces in the second ring and 81 pieces in the ninth ring; the middle layer is from 90 pieces in the tenth ring to 162 pieces in the 18th ring; the lower layer is from 171 pieces in the 19th ring to 243 pieces in the 27th ring. There are 378 "nines" in the three layers, which are 3402 pieces. At the same time, the diameter of the upper layer is 9 Zhangs (take 19), the diameter of the middle layer is 15 Zhangs (take 35), and the diameter of the lower layer is 21 Zhangs (take 37). The combined diameter of 45 Zhangs is not only a multiple of nine, but also the meaning of "Ninth Five Year Plan".Why use nine or multiple of nine to design and build the altar? The reasons are as follows: 1. According to the legend, the emperor lives in the nine fold heaven, and uses the nine or multiple of nine to symbolize the nine fold heaven, so as to show the supreme and the greatest of the celestial bodies. 2、In ancient China, odd numbers were regarded as positive numbers, while even numbers were regarded as negative numbers. The heaven is Yang and theearth is Yin. The temple of heaven is used to offer sacrifices to heaven. It can only be built with Yang number. And "Nine" is regarded as "extreme Yang number", which is the most auspicious number. In addition to feudal superstition, this kind of design regulation reflects the superb mathematical knowledge and computational ability of craftsmen at that time, which is really amazing.From the south gate to the Yuanqiu altar, there is a burnt stove made of green glazed bricks in the south corner of the inner wall. It is the place where pine and cypress wood is burned during the sacrificial ceremony, and the memorial tablets and silk are burned after the sacrificial ceremony. There is a burying ridge beside the burnt stove. At the end of the sacrificial ceremony, the tail hair blood of the whole cattle is buried in the camp, which symbolizes the meaning of drinking blood from the ancestors. As you can see, there are eight burning stoves in front of the burnt stove. These stoves are specially used for burning pine and cypress branches, pine flowers, pine pagodas, etc. when offering sacrifices to heaven. There are also a pair of stoves in the East and west gate of the altar.Now we come to the imperial vault, which has a history of more than 400 years. The hall is 19.5 meters high and 15.6 meters in diameter at the bottom. The whole hall is supported by eight eaves columns, with no crossbeam on the top. It is made up of many bucket arches and the ceiling shrinks layer by layer, forming a beautiful dome shaped caisson. The stone platform throne in the center of the hall is the place where the God card of the emperor is placed; the stone platform on the left and right in front of the throne is the place where the ancestral tablets of the emperor are placed. The East and west hall outside the hall is the place for worshiping the sun, moon, stars, clouds, rain, wind and thunder. Now it is displayed as it is, and there are wax statues of officials offering sacrifices to heaven in the Qing Dynasty.Now Id like to introduce the echo wall, which refers to the high circular wall surrounding the imperial vault and the East and west side halls. The perimeter of the wall is 193.2m, the diameter is 61.5m, the height is 3.72M and the thickness is 0.9m. If two people stand under the wall behind the East and west side halls in the courtyard, both face north and speak in a low voice to the wall, they can talk to each other as if they were on the phone. Its very wonderful and interesting. Thats why echo wall got its name.Here is the charming echo of the round stoneThere is a round stone in the center of the upper layer of the Circular Mound Altar, which is another wonder that tourists are most interested in. When you stand on the center stone and speak softly, your voice sounds grand and resonant. However, people who stand outside the second and third ring roads do not have this feeling. Why? It turns out that this is also a kind of acoustic phenomenon: because the surface of the altar is very smooth, the sound waves can be reflected quickly after they reach the stone fence boards with equal distance around. According to the test of acoustic experts, the time from pronunciation to sound wave and back to the center stone is only 0.07 seconds. The speaker cant distinguish the original sound from the echo at all, so the resonance echo of the person standing on the center stone is especially loud. The feudal rulers described this acoustic phenomenon as "hanging from the sky", which was the boundless return and consistent response of all the people in the world to the imperial court. At the same time, they gave the name of "yizhaojing Congshi".We come out from the west of huangqiongyu, where there is an ancient cypress named jiulongbai. Its trunk is twisted and twisted, just like nine coiled dragons, so it gets its name. It is saidthat this ancient cypress had a history of nearly a thousand years before it was built. In the temple of heaven, pine and cypress trees with long age, big height, no withering in four seasons and lush green are widely planted. The sea of trees, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest, the forest.The road under our feet is called Danbi bridgeIts clearly a straight and straight Avenue. Why is it also called "bridge"? Because there is a ticket hole under the road, which just forms a three-dimensional intersection with the avenue above, so its called bridge. This is a north-south stone terrace road. The total length is 360 meters and the width is about 30 meters. The whole bridge body rises gradually from south to north. The south end is about 1 meter high and the north end is about 3 meters high. This design and construction, on the one hand, symbolizes the emperors rising step by step, implying the meaning of rising to heaven; on the other hand, it means that there is a long distance from the world to the sky. Danbi bridge is the main axis of the inner altar of the temple of heaven, which plays an important role in connecting twogroups of buildings: the south end of the circular Hill altar and the north end of the Qigu altar. The stone road on the center line of the bridge deck is called "Shinto", and the stone roads on the left and right sides of Shinto are respectively called "royal road" and "royal road". The gods of heaven follow the "Shinto", the emperors follow the royal way, and the princes and ministers follow the royal way.At the moment, we are standing at the entrance of Jinxian gate, commonly known as "Guimenguan". Why is it called "Guimenguan"? Because before the memorial day, the "Suo Mu" and "Suo Jun" of the sacrifice house in the southwest corner of Waitan need to transport cattle, sheep, deer and rabbits from west to east from the entrance to the slaughter Pavilion. This activity is called "Jinzhu". Because all the livestock passing through this gate were slaughtered and used to make offerings, it was called "ghost gate".Continue to walk north along the Danbi bridge, and now onour left is the platform of concrete clothes, which is located on the east side of the north section of Danbi bridge and is a convex platform. This is the place where the emperor changed his coronal clothes (ceremonial clothes) when he went to the hall of praying for new year to worship the grain.In the west is zhaigong, which is located in the pines and cypresses on the south side of the inner avenue of the West Tianmen. It used to be the place where feudal emperors fasted and bathed before they came to the temple of heaven to pray for grain and worship. Zhaigong, covering an area of 40000 square meters, is a square building with a main hall, a bedroom and a bell tower. It is surrounded by two walls and a moat. The buildings are exquisite and the guards are strict. When you enter the main entrance of zhaigong, you will see the majestic main hall with red walls and green tiles. It is said that this kind of green tile is used to show that the emperor did not dare to be arrogant at this time, but could only "be a minister to heaven". The hall is divided into five rooms, arched and brick structure. The whole hall does not use beams or large beams, so it is also called "no beam hall". There are two stone pavilions on the Danlong in front of the hall, and the one on the right is smaller, which is the place to put the time tablet. The one on the left is square and tall, which is called "the stone pavilion of fasting bronze man". According to historical records, during the emperors fasting period, there was a square piece of cloth covered with yellow cloud satin, and a bronze statue one foot and five inches high. The bronze man worshipped a bamboo plate with both hands, engraved with the word "fast" to make the emperor"startling and respectful". It means that the emperor should be alert and never forget to fast attentively. There are three forms of fasting bronze man in Qing Dynasty: one is the statue of Wei Zheng, a famous official in Tang Dynasty, one is the statue of Leng Qian, a music official in early Ming Dynasty, and the other is the statue of Gang Bing, a eunuch in Ming Dynasty. It is said that these three people are famous for their uprightness and courage to remonstrate in history. This system was established in the 11th year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty, and it was also used in Qing Dynasty. According to the regulations, the bronze figure here is lengqian.Now in front of us are the hall of praying for new year and the altar of praying for grainThis is the holy place for the Ming and Qing emperors Meng chun to pray for the valley. The hall of praying for the new year adopts the structural form of upper room and lower altar. The triple eaves are folded up layer by layer and made into umbrellas. It is erected on the round altar surrounded by three layers of white stone carvings with a height of 5.6 meters and an area of 5900 square meters. The hall of praying for the new year is commonly known as the beamless hall. The whole building does not need long purlin and nails, but is completely supported and tenoned by 28Optimus pillars and numerous Fang, Mu Dui, Jue, bolt. The hall was built in 1420, the 18th year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty. It was originally known as the great sacrificial hall and was rectangular. In the ninth year of Jiajing reign in the Ming Dynasty (1530), it was changed into a round hall with triple eaves and covered with green, yellow and green tiles from top to bottom, which was renamed Daxing hall. In the 17th year of the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (175), the name was changed to todays name. At the same time, it was changed to cover with dark blue glazed tiles to symbolize the blue sky. In 1889, the hall was destroyed by thunder and fire and rebuilt the following year. The bronze cauldron and furnace displayed in front of the hall are all relics of hundreds of years ago. It is said that the number of pillars in the temple was set up according to the celestial phenomena. The four gilt pillars in the inner layer are called "Longjing pillars". They are 18.5 meters high and 1.2 meters in diameter at the bottom. They are also difficult to embrace, symbolizing the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. The 12 red pillars in the middle symbolize 12 months of a year. The outer 12 eaves pillars symbolize the 12 hours of the day. The 12 gold pillars in the middle layer and the 12 eaves pillars in the outer layer add up to 24, symbolizing the 24 solar terms in a year. The golden column, eaves column and Longjing column add up to28, symbolizing the 28 constellations in the sky. Add 8 child pillars around the caisson on the top of the palace, a total of 36, symbolizing 36 Tiangang. The Lei Gong column in the center of Baoding symbolizes the "unification" of the emperor of heaven.What we see below is Huangqian hall. It used to be the place where the tablets of God and ancestors of the emperor were placed. It is also known as the bedchamber of qigutan. Later, the banners, ceremonial guards and musical instruments used in the sacrificial ceremony were also stored here. There are many sacrificial relics in it. Now they are displayed as they are, and there are wax statues of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty for tourists to see all the year round.Located on the East and west sides of the courtyard in front of the platform of the hall of praying for the new year, are the East and west side halls, which were used to place the memorial tablets of sun, moon, star, Chen, cloud, rain, wind and thunder respectively. Now it is respectively set up to display the ancient music and etiquette of the imperial court, as well as the memorial tablets of sun, moon, star and Chen.What we see now is that the "divine kitchen" used to be a place where animals were slaughtered and sacrifices were made.Below you can see the Gods storehouse, the storehouse for collecting sacrifices. Now it passes through a W-shaped corridor with 72 rooms, which plays an important role in connecting the grain praying altar, the God kitchen, the God storehouse and transporting sacrifices. The number of rooms in the corridor is exactly the same as that of 72 Disha. In the past, it is said that this is the place where Disha ghosts gather. The lantern type vertical lights in the corridor are dim and gloomy. Later, the window sill was removed, which greatly changed the landscape of the corridor and became a good place for people to play.Tianquan well is located in front of the gate of shenku, which is named for its clear and sweet water. All the food and pastries used in offering sacrifices to heaven and praying for grain are made with this water.Now on our left is the seven star stone, which is located in the open field on the southeast side of the corridor. There are seven big stones and one small stone. According to legend, when Emperor Yongle of Ming Dynasty moved his capital to Beijing, he wanted to build a temple for heaven and earth, but it was difficult to find a suitable place. At this time, one night he dreamt that the Big Dipper in the sky landed here, which was called tiansuiyi. He solved theproblem of indecision and ordered to build an altar here. According to the records, the seven star stone was carved and placed here in the ninth year of Jiajing reign of Ming Dynasty. Emperor Jiajing was very superstitious in Taoism. Taoists told him that the South and east of the hall of praying for new year was too empty, which was not good for his throne and life. So the seven star stone was set here to suppress Feng Shui. There is also a small stone in the northeast corner of the seven star stone, which is said to have been added by the rulers of the Qing Dynasty to commemorate the merits of their ancestors. It is located in the northeast of the seven star stone, to show that do not forget the original meaning.This is the east gate of the temple of heaven. Ill introduce you to the temple of heaven. Thank you.天坛英语导游词范文5Dear touristsWhat we are going to visit today is the temple of heaven, the place where emperors used to worship heaven. After Yongle Emperor of Ming Dynasty moved his capital to Beijing, he built the altar for worshiping heaven in the south of Beijing, which imitated the Great Hall of Nanjing, covering an area of 2.73 million square meters. The main building is the great memorial hall, which is thelocation of the hall of praying for new year. The temple of heaven has outer wall and inner wall. It is round in the north and square in the south.At the beginning, the temple of heaven and the temple of earth were both Temple of heaven. It was not until the temple of earth was built in Beicheng during the Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty that they were separated, and a new round Mound Altar was added for the worship of heaven in the winter of Meng Dynasty. The original Hall of great sacrifice was changed into the hall of great enjoyment, which was specially used for praying for the valley in the spring of Meng Dynasty. At that time, the roof of the hall was already triple eaves, and the blue, yellow and green tiles from topto bottom represented all things in the world. During the reign of Emperor Qianlong, the hall of Da Xiang was changed into the hall of praying for new year, and the roof tiles were changed into blue glazed tiles. Thus, we have formed the worlds largest architectural complex of offering sacrifices to heaven. However, such a holy place for worshiping heaven was once looted by the British and French allied forces in 1860, and then by the Eight Allied forces in 1900. When Yuan Shikai ascended the throne in 1916, he also staged a farce of sacrificing heaven in the temple of heaven.。

以下是小编整理的天坛英语导游词范文5篇,欢迎阅读参考!天坛英语导游词范文(1)Ladies and Gentlemen:Welcome to the temple of Heaven. (After self-introduction) preserved cultural heritages of China. There are basically two kinds of visitors who come here: local pensioners who do exercises here in the morning and evening and sightseers both from home and abroad.All in all ,there are 12 million visitors very year. Now we are going to go along the route that leads tothe alter. It will take roughly one hour. Mind you ,the emperor also walked along this route to pay tribute to the God of Heaven.(Along the Southern Sacred Road leading to the Circular Mound Altar)The largest group of architectures ever to be dedicated to Heaven ,the Temple of Heaven served as an exclusive altar for Chinese monarchs during the Ming and Qing dynasties. It was decreed that rulers of successive dynasties would place altars in their own capitals to worship Heaven and pray for good harvest. But why ?The ancient Chinese believed that Heaven was the supreme ruler of the universe and the fate ofmankind ,and thus worshiping rites dedicated to Heaven came into being.The Heaven the ancient Chinese referred to was actually the Universe, or nature. In those days, there were specfic rites of worship. This was especially true during the Ming and Qing dynasties when elaborate ceremonies were held.The Temple of Heaven was built in 1420 during the reign of Emperor Youngle of the Ming Dynasty. Situated in the southern part of the city ,this grand set of structures covers an area of 273 hectares. To better symbolize heaven and earth ,the northern part of the Temple is circular while the southern part issquare .The whole compound is enclosed by two walls, a square wall outside a round one. The outer area is characterized by suburban scenery, while the inner part is used for sacrifices. The inner enclosure consists of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest and the Circular Mound Altar.(Along the Imperial Passage leading from the Southern Lattice Star Gate in front of the Circular Mound Altar)the Circular Mound Altar is enclosed by twowalls ,each containing four groups of Souther n Lattice Star Gate, each in turn consisting of three doors, with 24 marble doors altogether. Standing on the passage facing north, you will notice that with each pair of doors on is narrower than the other. This reflects the feudal hierarchy: the wider door was reserved for monarchs, while the narrower one was used by courtiers.On the day of the ceremony ,the emperor would don his ritual costume and be ushered in by the official in charge of religious affairs.

At the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 steps. At the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 concentric rings of stone. The number of stones in the first ring is 9, in the second ,18, up to 81 in the 9th ring. Even the number of carved balustrades on these terraces is a multiplee of 9. But why?According to an cient Chinese philosophy, yin and yang were two opposing factors. Heaven and the odd numbers belonged to yang while the Earth and even numbers belonged to yin. Nine was the largest heavenly number accessible to man . What is more, the ancient people also believed that heaven consisted of nine layers and that the emperor` s abode was on the uppermost tier.天坛英语导游词范文(2)(Inside the South Gate of the Temple of Heaven)Ladies and Gentlemen:Welcome to the temple of Heaven. (After self-introduction) preserved cultural heritages of China. There are basically two kinds of visitors who come here: local pensioners who do exercises here in the morning and evening and sightseers both from home and abroad.All in all, there are 12 million visitors very year. Now we are going to go along the route that leads tothe alter. It will take roughly one hour. Mind you, the emperor also walked along this route to pay tribute to the God of Heaven.(Along the Southern Sacred Road leading to the Circular Mound Altar)The largest group of architectures ever to be dedicated to Heaven, the Temple of Heaven served as an exclusive altar for Chinese monarchs during the Mingand Qing dynasties. It was decreed that rulers of successive dynasties would place altars in their own capitals to worship Heaven and pray for good harvest. But why?The ancient Chinese believed that Heaven was the supreme ruler of the universe and the fate of mankind, and thus worshiping rites dedicated to Heaven came intobeing. The Heaven the ancient Chinese referred to was actually the Universe, or nature. In those days, there were specific rites of worship. This was especially true during the Ming and Qing dynasties when elaborate ceremonies were held.The Temple of Heaven was built in 1420 during the reign of Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty. Situatedin the southern part of the city, this grand set of structures covers an area of 273 hectares. To better symbolize heaven and earth, the northern part of the Temple is circular while the southern part is square. The whole compound is enclosed by two walls, a square wall outside a round one. The outer area is characterized by suburban scenery, while the inner part is used for sacrifices. The inner enclosure consists of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest and the Circular Mound Altar.(Along the Imperial Passage leading from the Southern Lattice Star Gate in front of the Circular Mound Altar)The Circular Mound Altar is enclosed by two walls, each containing four groups of Southern Lattice StarGate, each in turn consisting of three doors, with 24 marble doors altogether. Standing on the passage facing north, you will notice that with each pair of doors on is narrower than the other. This reflects the feudal hierarchy: the wider door was reserved for monarchs, while the narrower one was used by courtiers.On the day of the ceremony, the emperor would don his ritual costume and be ushered in by the official in charge of religious affairs. He ascended the three terraces in the forefront to pay tribute at the alter.(Atop the Circular Mound Alter)we are now on the top terrace of the Altar, or the third terrace. Each terrace has a flight of 9 steps. At the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 steps. At the center of this terrace lies a round stone surrounded by 9 concentric rings of stone. The number of stones in the first ring is 9, in the second, 18, up to 81 in the 9th ring.

天坛中英文导游词天坛位于北京城区的东南部,原是明、清两代皇帝祭天、祈谷的圣地。
北京天坛是明朝永乐皇帝建成的祭天圣坛,也是我国现存最大的一处坛庙建筑。
下面是小编为你带来的天坛中英文导游词,欢迎参考!中文范例:各位团友大家好!今天我们要参观游览的景点是天坛。
天坛位于北京正阳门东南侧。
天坛是世界上现存规模最大、形制最完备的古代皇家祭祀建筑群,是明清两朝皇帝祭天、祈谷的地方。
1998年12月列入《世界遗产名录》。
天坛始建于明朝永乐初年,于1420xx年建成完工。
明朝永乐年间,天坛初建之时,称天地坛,不仅祭天而且祭地。
一百余年间,明朝有9位皇帝在天地坛合祀天地。
至明嘉靖九年(1530),明世宗朱厚熜下诏将天地合祭改为天地分祭,在南郊建圜丘,名为天坛;在北郊建方泽坛,名为地坛;有在东郊建日坛以祭日;在西郊建夕月坛以祭月。
清乾隆皇帝时又对天坛警醒了大规模的修建:1742年改建大斋宫;1747年用城砖包砌天坛内外坛墙;1749年扩建圜丘,兵在乾隆十六年(1751)将祈谷坛的大亨殿改为祈年殿,将三层殿顶琉璃瓦改为蓝色,象征天。
次年又改建皇穹宇。
我们现在看到的七年单是光绪年间重建后的风貌。
1920xx年清帝溥仪退位后,祭天制度废止,清廷撤走其配祀祖先的牌位,将天坛交由国民政府内务部管理。
1920xx年12月23日袁世凯又到天坛举行了一次祭天大典。
1920xx年新年元旦天坛正式对外开放。
1937年日军进驻天坛。
1939年日军占据神乐署,设立研究病理和细菌的实验室。
1945年北平市接受的天坛已经破败不堪。
解放前夕,守备北京的国民党军队在天坛内修筑工事、建弹药库,砍伐大量树木。
为建简易机场扒掉南部坛墙,炸毁有400多年历史的明代石牌坊,天坛面目全非。
建国后。
在国家政府和北京市政府的秀山之下,天坛才重现昔日辉煌面貌。
天坛全园占地约273公顷,其中林地占地163公顷,草坪占地10余公顷,120xx年以上的古柏有3600多株,全园之北覆盖率达到89%。
天坛的面积是紫禁城面积的4倍。
天坛平面布局呈“回”字形,北圆南方,象征天圆地方。
明清两朝共有22位皇帝在这里举行过几天大典654次。
最后在这里几天的是袁世凯。
天坛是通称,它实际上主要由两个坛组成。
南部为圜丘坛建筑群,北部为祈谷坛建筑群。
两坛各成体系,他们之间由海墁大道相连。
天坛又有内坛和外坛之分,其间分布许多附属建筑,可以用“一、三、五、七、九”这样一组数字将天坛的主要建筑概括起来。
“一”:一天中轴线。
在这条中轴线上,分布着天坛里最主要的建筑。
自南向北分别得昭亨门-圜丘坛-皇穹宇-成贞门-丹陛桥-南砖门-祈年门-祈年殿-皇乾殿-北天门。
“三”:三道坛墙,分别为外坛墙、内坛墙和分隔圜丘坛与祈谷坛之间的东西向坛墙。
“五”:指五组主要建筑,分为圜丘坛建筑群、祈谷坛建筑群、斋宫建筑群、神乐署和牺牲所建筑群。
“七”:是祈谷坛东侧的七星石。
“九”:指原天坛的九座坛门。
外坛墙2座,西侧北面祈谷坛门及南面的圜丘坛门。
圜丘坛周围4座,分别为泰元门、昭亨门、广利门、成贞门。
祈谷坛东、西、北3座,分别为东天门、西天门、北天门。
大家看,我们眼前的这条平坦,宽阔的大道就是海墁大道,也叫丹陛桥。
它是连接天坛南北两大建筑群的通道,全长108丈。
360米,宽约30米,分为三路,中间宽阔的路面为“神道”,就连皇帝也不能走;东侧的窄路为“御路”,供皇帝专用;西侧为“王道”,为随同皇帝祭祀来的文武大臣们而设。
整个路面底部南向北逐渐升高,最北端高出最南端2米,而路面看起来很平坦,这种设计方法的妙处是象征皇帝步步升高,而又没有真的让皇帝走斜坡而受累,同时也使天坛的总体显得更加完美。
说到这里,有朋友要问了,这明明是一条宽阔的大路,为什么叫“桥”呢?这有两个说法:一是大道南低北高,步步上升,意思是与天相接,所以称桥;二是,在前面的确有一条券洞式的东西通道,如同桥洞,所以叫桥。
丹陛桥又被称为“鬼门关”。
为什么呢?因为在外滩的西南侧有一个专门为祭祀而死羊动物的机构,叫“牺牲所”,在丹陛桥东侧又有一个专门为祭祀而宰杀动物的机构,叫“宰牲亭”,在祭祀前要把西侧牺牲所得动物赶到东侧宰杀亭内宰杀,做成贡品。
但最初在西向东没有路,又不能让那些祭祀用的牛羊在丹陛桥上走,玷污了神路,于是就在下面开了个洞,让牲畜从这里通过,因为动物过了桥洞必死无疑,再无生还的可能,所以这里又叫“鬼门关”。
丹陛桥确实是桥,而且是一座立交桥,按年代计算恐怕称得上古都北京第一座立交桥了。
我们现在所在的位置时丹陛桥的北端东侧,这有一个坐东朝西的方形转台,周围有汉白玉石栏板,面积大约有300多平方米,叫“具服台”。
在举行祭祀大典时,在此临时搭起帐篷,人称“小金殿”,皇帝在大典前在这里换衣服,脱去黄色龙袍,换上蓝色的祭服,表示对皇天上帝的尊敬。
祈谷典礼结束后,再来这里更衣,返回紫禁城。
在天坛中轴线北端,是祈谷坛,坛分三层,圆形。
八出陛,南北各三出陛,东西各一出陛,三层坛面围以汉白玉石栏板,坛上为祈年殿。
祈年殿高九丈七尺九寸九分,殿顶为圆形三重檐攒尖顶,顶部为鎏金宝顶,殿内的天花为龙凤藻井。
祈年殿以28根落地柱环绕支撑,形成内中外三环柱网。
内圈为4根龙井柱,其东南柱代表春季,南方柱间代表夏季,西方柱间为秋季,北方柱间为冬季。
中圈12根金柱分隔的12个位置,代表一年的12个月。
12根金柱加上柱间隔成德12个空间,代表一年的24个节气。
外圈12根檐柱分隔的12个空间,代表一天的12个时辰。
祈年殿内中间北侧有一方形高台,是安放皇天上帝神版的地方,东西两侧较低的方形石台,是安放清代列祖列宗神牌的地方。
在祈谷坛的北侧,是监狱永乐十八年的天地坛的天库,用于存放祭祀天地的神牌,明嘉靖二十四年改名为皇乾殿。
在祈谷坛东门外有一条连檐通脊的曲廊,叫“长廊”,共有72间。
又叫七十二连房。
长廊将祈年殿、神库连在一起,是祭祀时往祭坛上运送祭品的通道。
在祈谷坛长廊的东南方,这一景观被称为七星石,是明嘉靖年间经人工雕凿后放在这里的。
可能有细心的团友要问七星石为什么有八块呢?其实七星石代表东岳泰山七峰,东北方位的小青石是康熙皇帝派人考察泰山,认定泰山发脉于东北长白山,后在乾隆年间曾置的。
好!天坛祈谷坛建筑群的讲解到此结束,现在请各位自由参观拍照,15分钟后我们在北天门集合。
谢谢!各位!现在我们来到了圜丘坛景区前,其实呀,它才是真正的“天坛”,因为这里才是明清两代皇帝在冬至举行祭天大典的地方。
圜丘坛建于明嘉靖年间,即公元1530年,位于天坛的南部。
周围有四门,东为泰元门,难为昭亨门,西为广利门,北为成贞门。
这四门的名称出自《易经*乾卦》中的卦辞“元亨利贞”,咱们的是天的本质,也称为天的“四德”。
圜丘坛外面有两道谴墙。
四个正方位都设有棂星门。
内墙为圆形,直径102米,外墙方形,边长168米。
我们现在所在的位置就在外墙外的神路东侧,在我们面前的这个由汉白玉石栏板围起来的方形砖台叫“具服台”。
冬至日祭天大典前,这里会临时搭起帐篷,供皇帝在此盥洗和更换祭天礼服。
整个天坛有两座具服台,另一座在祈谷坛前。
好,请大家随我从棂星门进入圜丘坛外围墙。
这是圜丘坛内外壝墙之间的一个空间。
我先给大家介绍一下这一院落中的陈设。
请看西南边,那里有一根很高的木杆,它叫望灯杆,嘉靖九年初建是只有1座,明崇祯皇帝时增加到了3座。
1920xx年袁世凯祭天是拆掉两根,所以现在只剩下我们跟前的这一根了。
望灯杆是祭天的时候挂灯笼用的。
各位也许要问:祭天为什么要挂灯笼呀?这是因为当年祭天的时候不是在白天,二是在日出前七刻,即凌晨四点一刻到四点三十分。
您想想,这个时候在冬至时可是漆黑一片啊。
所以,祭天时皇帝需要挂灯笼照亮。
不过,皇帝照亮,非同一般,那必须要“吉星高照”。
那么现在请大家猜一猜这座灯杆有多高?现在我来宣布正确答案:灯杆的高度是九丈,约合今天的28米多。
不仅灯杆不一般,那灯笼也不一般。
举行祭天大典时望灯杆上吊挂直径1.3米、高2.15米大灯笼,里面方有五支巨大的蟠龙通宵宝蜡,长又1.3米,直径30厘米,可连续燃烧12个小时,既不用剪蜡花,也不流蜡油,是当年皇帝祭天的专用宝蜡。
除了挂灯笼照明外,这根望天杆还是祭天大典位置的标志,也是祭天仪式开始和结束的时间标志。
请大家再转向外墙的东南方,这里还有几组建筑。
这个圆形的用绿色琉璃砖砌的建筑物,叫燔柴炉,高9尺。
祭天大典开始时,在这里焚烧弄干净的牛犊以通达天神,祭天大典结束后,还要在这里焚烧祝版及祭品。
在燔柴炉东侧,还有一个圆形的绿琉璃砖的建筑物,大家看看这个像不像是一个埋在地下的巨大盘子。
这个叫痂坎,用来埋牛尾、牛毛、牛血,来比喻不忘祭地的意思。
在痂坎旁,从西南向东北方向排列着的这8个炉子是铁镣炉,它们的主要用途是焚烧大典后从配位上撤下的清代前8为皇帝的祭品。
在进行大典的时候炉内然手松杆、松柏,同时还烧些檀香木,一时间火光冲天,香烟缭绕,不但增加了神秘庄严地气氛,而且在寒冷的冬夜给皇帝带来了一丝暖意。
圜丘坛共有这样的镣炉12座,除了这8座以外,其余4座分别放在圜丘坛内围墙东、西棂星门外。
现在,让我们赶快进入内墙去看看圜丘坛吧。
圜丘坛是一座三层的圆形石台。
为什么要将祭天台设计成圆形呢?因为古代人们认为天就是圆的,地就是放的,既然是祭天台,自燃要设计成圆形了。
圜丘坛通高5.7米,完全用艾叶青石铺成。
它的最大的特点是数字“九”无处不在,充满了神秘色彩。
现在我们一起来找找那些神秘的“九”,看他们藏在何处。
大家请随我手指所指来看。
圜丘坛三层台面的直径分别是:下层坛面直径21丈,暗含“三七”,中层直径15丈,为“三五”,顶层“九”丈,为“一九”,合起来“一、三、五、七、九”,阳数都齐了,如果把三层直径加起来,便是四十五,五九四十五,正好象征了皇帝的“xx”之尊,巧夺天工吧。
大家可以看到,圜丘坛冬、南、西、北、各开一口,叫做四出陛,每个登坛口都有上、中、下三组台阶。
耳听为虚,眼见为实,在这儿咱们不妨来个脚踏为实,请大家一边登上这一组台阶,一边数数这组台阶有多少级。
一、二、三、四、五、六、七、八、九,正好九级。
第二层呢,也是九级,第三层也是如此,这样,共有12组“九”,对吧? 现在我们已经到了圜丘坛的顶端,大家请看坛面中心,这块圆形石块叫天心石,又叫“亿兆景从石”,为何叫天心石呢?据说这块石头是宇宙的中心,是皇帝与天上诸神们相互交流的“天界”,故心有灵犀者,便可在此与“神”交流一番。
那为什么又叫“亿兆景从石”呢?“亿兆”是多的意思,“景从”是像影子一样随从,所以所白了“亿兆景从石”就是“一呼百应石”。
这是一组奇妙的声学现象,即当你站在圆心石上轻声说话时,声音不仅宏大,而且有共鸣及回音。
那么,这是什么原因造成的现象呢?请看,由于坛面十分光洁平整,声波传到周围的石栏杆后能迅速地被反射回来,据声学专家测验,从发生到声波再回到圆心石的时间仅为0.07秒,说话者根本无法分清它是原音还是回音,所以又一会白影的感觉。
