钟楼和城墙的英文介绍

钟楼和城墙The Bell Tower Drum Tower and the City Well in Xi’anThe Bell Tower, a classical building with carved beams and painted rafters, has been served as the symbol of Xi’an. It stands in the center of the downtown area where the north street, the south street, the west street and the east street meet. And the tower house a huge bell which in ancient times was use to strike the time every morning. This is how the tower got its name. now it is an important historical monument in shaanxi Province.The Bell tower was first built in Ying Xiang temple in 1384 during the Ming dynasty. It was moved to its present site in 1582 as a result of the city‘s expansion program.Ladies and gentlemen, There is a story about the Bell Tower. It’s said that the first emperor of Ming dynasty , Zhu yuanzhang , he was born in a poor family. Both his parent died when he was young, and he had to live a hard life. Later, he went to a temple to become a monk. When he ascended the throne, he was afraid of being deposed by so meone of “real dragon”. Therefore, he gave orders to build bell tower all over the county to repress the “dragon spirits”. Xi’an has been the imperial capital city since ancient times. So the “dragon spirits ” must be very strong here. That’s why the bell tower in Xi’an was not only built earlier, but also bigger than the other ones in the country. The base of the tower is 1,337.4 square meters in size, 8.6 meters high and 35.5 meters wide. It was laid with blue bricks all over. The whole building is 36 meters above ground. It is a brick-and –wood structure. The eaves are supported by colored “dou gong” a traditional structural system in which brackets are used to join columns and crossbeams, the use of dou gong made the whole building firm and beautiful.Well, next we will visit the Drum Tower nearly.The Drum Tower stands 500 meters to the northwest of the Bell Tower. It was built in 1380. There used to be a huge drum in the tower, which told the time at dark, and that is how the tower got its present name. Besides marking the time, the drum was also used to give warnings to people in times of war. The base of The Drum Tower is 1,924 square meters in size, and 34 meters in height. It was built with blue bricks. The Drum Towerhas a rectangular shape and shows tier and the outside eaves are decorated with networks of wood arches.As the symbol of the old-line Xian, Big Wild Goose Pagoda is a well-preserved ancient building and a holy place for Buddhists. It is located in the southern suburb of Xian City, about 4 kilometers (2.49 miles) from the downtown of the city. Standing in the Da Ci'en Temple complex, it attracts numerous visitors for its fame in the Buddhist religion, its simple but appealing style of construction, and its new square in front of the temple. It is rated as a National Key Cultural Relic Preserve as well as an AAAA Tourist Attraction.This attraction can be divided into three parts: the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the Da Ci'en Temple, and the North Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda.Big Wild Goose PagodaOriginally built in 652 during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty (618-907), it functioned to collect Buddhist materials that were taken from India by the hierarch Xuanzang.Xuanzang started off from Chang'an (the ancient Xian), along the Silk Road and through deserts, finally arriving in India, the cradle of Buddhism. Enduring 17 years and traversing 100 countries, he obtained Buddha figures, 657 kinds of sutras, and several Buddha relics. Having gotten the permission of Emperor Gaozong (628-683), Xuanzang, as the first abbot of Da Ci'en Temple, supervised the building of a pagoda inside it. With the support of royalty, he asked 50 hierarchs into the temple to translate Sanskrit in sutras into Chinese, totaling 1,335 volumes, which heralded a new era in the history of translation. Based on the journey to India, he also wrote a book entitled 'Pilgrimage to the West' in the Tang Dynasty, to which scholars attached great importance.First built to a height of 60 meters (197 feet) with five stories, it is now 64.5 meters (211.6 feet) high with an additional two stories. It was said that after that addition came the saying-'Saving a life exceeds building a seven-storied pagoda'. Externally it looks like a square cone, simple but grand and it is a masterpiece of Buddhist construction. Built of brick, its structure is very firm. Inside the pagoda, stairs twist up so that visitors can climb and overlook the panorama of Xian City from the arch-shaped doors on four sides of each storey. On the walls are engraved fine statues of Buddha by the renowned artist Yan Liben of the Tang Dynasty. Steles by noted calligraphers also grace the pagoda.As for the reason why it is called Big Wild Goose Pagoda, there is a legend. According to ancient stories of Buddhists, there were two branches, for one of which eating meat was not a taboo. One day, they couldn't find meat to buy. Upon seeing a group of big wild geese flying by, a monk said to himself: 'Today we have no meat. I hope the merciful Bodhisattva will give us some.' At that very moment, the leading wild goose broke its wings and fell to the ground. All the monks were startled and believed that Bodhisattva showed his spirit to order them to be more pious. They established a pagoda where the wild goose fell and stopped eating meat. Hence it got the name 'Big Wild Goose Pagoda'.Da Ci'en TempleDa Ci'en Temple is the home of Big Wild Goose Pagoda. In 648, to commemorate the dead virtuous queen, royalty ordered the building of a temple named 'Ci'en' (Mercy and Kindness), for which the status and scale far exceeded all others. Today, with an area of 32,314 square meters (38,648.5 square yards), one seventh of the original area, it still retains its grandeur.Before the temple, there stands a statue of hierarch Xuanzang, the meritorious hierarch. Walking on and across a small bridge, visitors will see the gates of the temple. With guarding lions, the temple seems stately for lions were said to function as talismans.Entering the temple you will see two buildings-Bell Tower in the east and Drum Tower in the west. Inside the Bell Tower hangs an iron bell 15 tons (14.76 gross tons) in weight. It was molded in 1548 in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Along the central axis are arranged the Hall of Mahavira, Sermon Hall, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and the Hall of Xuanzang Sanzang. In the Hall of Mahavira are three carved statues of Sakyamuni, and 18 arhats as well as Xuanzang. The Sermon Hall is where Buddhist disciples would listen to a sermon. A bronze statue of Amitabha is dedicated and a Buddha statue is collected by Xuanzang as oblation. The Hall of Xuanzang Sanzang is north of Big Wild Goose Pagoda. In this hall are Xuanzang's relic and a bronze statue of a seated Xuanzang. The inner wall is chiseled with murals depicting this hierarch's story. Renowned as the contemporary Dunhuang Buddhist storehouse praised by UNESCO, it is the biggest memorial of Xuanzang.North Square of Big Wild Goose PagodaSurrounding Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the scenery is also quite charming, especially the square north of the Da Ci'en Temple. Covering about 110,000 square meters (131563 square yards) plus 20,000 square meters (23920.6 square yards) of water area, itholds many records: in Asia, it is the biggest Tang-culture square, the biggest fountain and waterscape square, and the largest-scale sculptures area. In the world, it has the most benches, the longest light-belt, and the largest-scale acoustic complex.The entire square is composed of waterscape fountains, a cultural square, gardens and tourist paths. There you can taste real Chinese culture and traditions and fully enjoy the truly attractive views. With reliefs on the theme of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, 200-meter-long (656-foot-long) sculpture groups, 8 groups of sculpted figures, 40 relievos on the land, and 22 styles of musical fountains, it has become a must-see when you visit Big Wild Goose Pagoda.。

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

The Bell Tower and the Drum Tower

The Bell Tower and the Drum Tower

The Bell Tower and the Drum TowerThe Bell Tower is the a classical building in Xi'an. It stands in the center of the downtown area where the North Street, the South Street, the East Street and the West Street meet. The base of the tower is 1,337.4 square meters in size, 8.6 meters high and 35.5 meters wide. It was laid with blue bricks all over. The whole building, 36 meters above ground, is a brick-and-wood structure.There is a huge bell which was originally used to strike time every morning in ancient times. Ever since its establishment(建成), it has been the symbol of Xi'an. Now, it is one of the most important places of interest in Xi'an, and it attracts thousands of tourists all over China and the world.There are many interesting legends about the Bell Tower. One of them is that in the Ming Dynasty, millions of people were killed in several earthquakes on the Central Shaanxi Plain(关中平原). So there was a story that the quakes were caused by a huge dragon in the undercurrent(地下河流) that flew under the city. After the local governor heard the story and thought it was true. Then he ordered all the smiths (铁匠)in the city to make a 300-meter chain to keep the dragon under control. He also ordered 5,000 craftsmen(工匠) to build the tower at the site under which the dragon was chained. As a result, the dragon was weighed down to the bottom of the undercurrent, and stopped its evil spells(无法兴妖作怪).The Bell Tower was first built in the Yingxiang Temple in 1384, which used to mark the center of the city. It was moved to its present site in 1582 as a result of the city's enlargement program(城市扩建工程). To make it look as great as it was hundreds of years ago, since 1949, the government has repaired the tower several times. Today, if you climb the tower by way of its wooden stairs, you will enjoy the beauty of the whole city. If you are lucky to get on it on a fine day, you might see as far as Zhongnan Mountain on the southern outskirts of the city.Near the Bell Tower stands another important building called the Drum Tower. It was built in 1380, four years earlier than the Bell Tower. The base of the Drum Tower is 1,924 square meters in size, and 34 meters in height. It was also built with blue bricks.There used to be a huge drum in tower which told the time at dusk, so it is named the Drum Tower. The bell in the Bell Tower and the drum in the Drum Tower has been regarded as "the Morning Bell" and "the Dusk Drum". Later, the drum was no longer used to tell time but only give warnings in times of war.If you come to visit Xi'an, don't miss the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower.The event of Xi’an Cultural Day at the Taipei Int’l Flora Exposition was launched on the morning of the March 16th. Mr. Sun Qingyun, member of Standing Committee of the CPC Shaanxi Provincial Committee, Secretary of the CPC Xi'an Municipal Committee, and Mr. Hau Lung-bin, Mayor of Taipei, jointly unveiled the sculpture of the Chang’an Flower at the Taipei Flora Expo site. Secretary Sun sincerely invited compatriots from Taiwan to visit the International Horti cultural Exposition in Xi’an, a city with a long and prosperous history.Sun Qingyun, member of Standing Committee of the CPC Shaanxi Provincial Committee, Secretary of the CPC Xi'an Municipal Committee, and Mr. Hau Lung-bin, Mayor of Taipei, display the mascots of the Xi’an International Horticultural Exposition and Taipei Flora Expo.In his speech, Sun Qingyun pointed out that the two expos in two cities have both strived to fully showcase the concept of “Harmony between Nature & Mankind”. Taipei and Xi’an are tied together closely thanks to common concepts and goals. We experienced two different kinds of urban culture, but with the same direction and spirit of the two cities. Xi’an Cultural Day in Taipei Flora Expo was a valuable opportunity to enhance cultural exchange between the two cities. The event will further strengthen communication and collaboration between Xi’an and Taipei in various areas such as the economy, tourism and culture, etc.Secretary Sun said that Taipei is a coastal city surrounded by seas and wind on all sides, featuring a “sea culture” with the combination of eastern and western civilizations; while Xi’an is a historic city mixing Han and Tang Dynasties culture with a modern ecological civilization, and presenting an innate charisma. These two cities are very unique, but at the same time share many common qualities. When the two cities appeared together onthe global stage, not only did they thoroughly display profound Chinese culture, they also gave vivid interpretations of the concept of “Harmony between Nature & Mankind”.Sun Qingyun, on behalf of the Organizing Committee of the Xi’an International Horticultural Exposition, heartfully invited Taiwan compatriots to visit the International Horticultural Exposition in Xi’an. He said that Xi’an is a city featuring a combination of ancient and modern civilizations, distinguished views of old and new urban areas, and spectacular characteristics of cultural and ecological resources. The Int’l Horticultural Exposition in Xi’an will present the world with the beauties of horticultural landscape design, environmentally friendly science and technology, traditional Chinese culture and modern city. Just like the Taipei Flora Expo, the Xi’an Int ernational Horticultural Exposition will be a world-class exposition with great diversity and integrity covering the economy, culture, science and technology and many other areas.According to Mayor Hau, the successful events of the Taipei Flora Expo and Xi’an International Horticultural Exposition will enhance exchange and cooperation in the economy, tourism and culture between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, as well as showcase the cultural features and horticultural beauties of the two sides. He believes that they will certainly bring to the world great treasures of progress, innovation, inclusiveness, and harmony.Last year, Taipei and Xi’an signed Memorandum on the Cooperation between Taipei Int'l Flora Expo 2010 and Xi'an Int'l Horticultural Expo 2011, launching a new starting point of the horticultural relay and cultural exchange and cooperation between the two sides.The Xi’an Yard, which is located at the Taipei Int’l Flora Exposition, is featured in the ancient capital of Chang’an. We can see the profound cultural assets of Xi’an in the yard which has also put the common concept of ecological and environmental protection of the two expos into practice, making it the most attractive spot in the Flora Expo site.Xi’an Cultural Day in Taipei Flora Expo adopted a simple but inviting opening ceremony, where people could enjoy original Qin opera, traditional Taiwan opera and the folk opera of Shaanxi.Hau Lung-bin, Mayor of Taipei, met with the delegation led by Sun Qingyun before the opening ceremony. After the ceremony, they visited the “Xi’an Yard” in Xi’an Park of the Taipei Flora Expo together. They also watched the performances in art of light sketching and simple writing, folk kite making, paper cutting, and clay sculpture, before later accepting interviews from journalists.Wang Jun, member of Standing Committee of the CPC Xi'an Municipal Committee and Director of the Publicity Department of Xi’an City, famous movie star Lu Yan, renowned director Wang Quan’an, well-known calligraphers Qiu Zongkang and Shi Ruifang, as well as the Head of Xinzhu County Chiu Ching-chun, Chief Executive Director of the Taipei Flora Expo Chen Hsiung-wen, and famous musician and Director of the International Affairs Department of Taiwan University Shen Tung, also participated in the event.Huaqing Pool Huaqing Pool is situated about 35 kilometres east of the city of Xi'an. Historically, the Western Zhou dynasty saw the construction of the Li Palace on the spot. In the Qin dynasty apool was built with stones, and was given the name Lishan Tang (the Lishan Hot Spring). The site was extended into a palace in the Han dynasty, and renamed the Li Palace (the Resort Palace 度假胜地). In the Tang dynasty, Li Shimin (Emperor Tai Zong) ordered to construct the Hot Spring Palace, and Emperor Xuan Zong had a walled palace built around Lishan Mountain in the year of 747. It was known as the Huaqing Palace. It also had the name Huaqing Pool on account of its location on the hot springs.Huaqing Pool is located at the foot of the Lishan Mountain, a branch range of the Qinling Ranges(山脉), and stands 1,256 meters high. It is covered with pines(松树)and cypresses(saipris 柏树), looking very much like a dark green galloping horse from a long distance. So it has the name of the Lishan Mountain (Li means a black horse).The Tang dynasty Emperor Xuan Zong and his favorite lady, Yang Gui Fei used to maketheir home at Frost Drifting Hall in winter days. When winter came, snowflakes were floating in the air, and everything in sight was white. However, they came into thaw immediately in front of the hall. It owed a great deal to the luck warm vapor rising out of the hot spring. This is the Frost Drifting Hall that greets us today.Close by the Frost Drifting Hall lies the Nine Dragon Pool. According to legend, the Central Shaanxi Plain was once stricken by a severe drought in the very remote past. Thus, by the order of the Jade Emperor (the Supreme Deity of Heaven), an old dragon came at the head of eight young ones, and made rain here. Yet when the disaster was just abating, they lowered their guard so much that it became serious again. In a fit of anger, the Jade Emperor kept the young dragons under the Jade Cause Way, with the Morning Glow Pavilion and the Sunset Pavilion built at both ends of it respectively, to make the youngdragons spout cleat water all day long to meet the needs of local irrigation. Besides, he had the old dragon confined to the bottom of the Roaring Dragon Waterside Pavilion situated at the upper end of the Jade Causeway, and obliged him to exercise control over the young.The Nine-Bend Corridor west of the Nine Dragon Pool leads directly to the Marble Boat, which resembles a dragon boat on the water surface. In the Marble Boat lies the Nine Dragon Tang (the Nine Dragon Hot Spring where Emperor Xuan Zong used to take baths). At the head of his court ladies and hundreds of his officials, he would come to the Huanqing Palace to spend his winter days in October of the Lunar calendar and return to Chang'an City as the year drew to its close. The Nine Dragon Hot Spring was originally built with crystal jade, whose surface was decorated with the carvings of fish, dragons, birds and flowers. In it twin lotus flowers also carved with whitejade could be seen as well. The spring water welled from the break of an earthen jar, and spouted up to the lotus flowers. Hence the name Lotus Flower Tang (the Lotus Flower Hot Spring).The Gui Fei Bathing Pool was where Yang Gui Fei, Emperor Xuan Zong's favorite lady, used to take bath. It was originally built with white jade, and in its center blooming flower spouted water like a spring. The pool looked very much like a Chinese flowering crabapple; Hence its name the Chinese Flowering Crabapple Hot Spring or the Lotus Hot Spring……Lady Yang used to make a stay in this pavilion to see sights or to air her hair after a bath. Therefore, it was named the Hair Airing Pavilion. Whether the sun was rising or setting, the pavilion was aglow with sunshine; hence the name the Flying Roseate Pavilion.Southwest of the Gui Fei Bathing Pool stands a brick-built pavilion. On its head three big Chinese characters “Xi Jia Lou” (Fine Sunset-Bathed Pavilion)are inscribed according to the model of the most celebrated Chinese calligrapher, Yu You Ren, here is the source of the spring water.At this spa there are four hot springs. They have an hourly flow of 112 tons, and a constant temperature of 43°C. The spring water contains lime, sodium carbonate, sodium sulphate and other minerals, which makes it suitable for bathing and considerable treatment of quite a few diseases such as dermatosis(皮肤病), rheumatism(风湿), arthritis(关节)and muscular pain. The Fine Sunset-Bathed Pavilion marks the first source of the spring water, which was discovered some 3,000 years ago, roughly in the Western Zhou Dynasty. Its water flow averages 25 tons per hour. Take up the steps east of the source of hot spring; you will gradually see the Five-Room Pavilionwhere Chiang Kaishek made a temporary stay during the Xi'an Incident.The Xi'an Incident took place on December 12, 1936, and it is also known as the Double Twelfth Incident. After the Incident of September 18, 1936, the Japanese imperialists(帝国主义)seized the three provinces northeast of China, and intensified their invasion of North China. This was the very moment vital to the Chinese nation. Yet Chiang Kaichek persisted doggedly in carrying out his reactionary policy “domestic tranquility(稳定)is a must for the resistance against Japanese invades,” and commanded the Northeast Army and Northwest Army, respectively headed by Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng, to attack the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region. Inspired by our Party‟s policy “let us stop the internal war and unit to resist the Japanese aggressors,” those two generals made to Chiang Kaishek the proposal of forming a united front with the Communist Party for the resistance. Not only did he reject the proposal, but flew to Xi'an to sche me the “suppression(镇压) of the Communist Party.” And the slaughter of the patriotic youth. Out of patriotism, Zhang and Yang started the famous Xi‟an Incident.Very early on the morning of December 12, 1936 the Incident was impending. Zhang Xueliang, together with Yang Hucheng ordered asquad of bodyguards to surround the Huaqing Pool. They fought a fierce battle there, and wiped out Chiang's bodyguards in one vigorous effort. The sound of firing came to Chiang Kaishek, and he was so terrified that he crept out of the window with his nightgown and slippers only. What…s more, he hurt his spinal bone, and lost one of his slippers while crossing over the back wall. He staggered up Lishan Mountain, and hid himself behind a stone in the crevice (裂缝)halfway on it. Those brave soldiers began to search the mountain immediately when they rushed into the Five-Room Pavilion to find that Chiang's hat and clothes were still there and that his quilt remained warm. In the end they found Chiang Kaishek, and thus escorted (押送)him to Xi‟an.In order to avoid a civil war and try to establish a national united front for the resistance against Japan, Mao Zedong on behalf of the C.C.P.C. (Chinese communists people committee)insisted on a peaceful settlement of the Incident. Therefore, a delegation headed by Zhou Enlai was sent to Xi'an. Zhou Enlai and his suite did a large amount of work there, took everything possible into consideration, and ultimately forced Chiang Kaishek to accept the proposal by his two generals. On December 25, Chiang was freed, and flew back to Nanjing. The Xi‟an Incident was so peacefully settled.The peaceful settlement of the Incident put an end to the internal war which had lasted for ten years, and accelerated the formation and development of the national united front for the anti-Japanese drive. Moreover, it showed that the co-operative relationships between the Communist and Nationalists arrived at a new stage. It marked a great turning point in modern Chinese history.In the y ear of 1946 the KMT government had a “National Rejuvenation(返老还童) Pavilion” built near the crevice where Chiang Kaishek had hidden himself in the Incident. It was also called “Vital Energy Pavilion”. After the national liberation it was renamed “Catching Chiang Pavilion”. Close by the pavilion stands a wooden board which carries a brief introduction to the Xi'an Incident. Iron chains and rings in the crevices east of the pavilion, by which visitors can climb up to take a look at Chiang Kaishek…s shelter.Up the winding path east of the Five-Room-Pavilion you will catch sight of a bridge-like construction. It shines regularly with a myriad of evening sun rays both in summer and autumn, and looks very much like rainbow. So it has the name of the Hovering Rainbow Bridge.Located on the Xixiu Ridge (the West Embroidery(刺绣)Ridge) of the Lishan Mountain, the remains of the beacon tower (烽火台)of the Western Zhou Dynasty seem easy to identify.The beacon tower was mostly built at the top of the mountain to give border alarm in ancient times. It was constantly under special control. Once the enemies were pressing on towards the border, the beacon tower began to take effect: it was made to smoke in the daytime while set on fire at night.The story goes that Bao Si, Queen of the Western Zhou dynasty was highly honored, yet she never cracked a smile(展颜微笑). King You tried many ways to put a smile on her face, but he failed over and over again. He “called his court band to toll bells and beat gongs (锣)”, and she pulled a long face. Then the band were asked to “play the bamboo flute(长笛)and strings” and she remained displeased. Afterward s, “maids of honors served wine, festively singing and dancing,” and she did not let out a smile at all.“You don't like music! What on earth are you fond of?” the King asked.“I nearly have a liking for nothing. But I can still well remember I liked to give ear to the sound of tearing a piece of colored silk when I was a child. It was clear melodious,” she replied. King You said in excitement, “That is very simple. How come you didn't let me know it earlier?”Thus he ordered the officially appointed property manager to offer colored silk, and made fresh and energetic maids of honor to tear it into pieces. Hundreds of bolts of colored silk were utterly torn, but Bao Si remained unmoved.“Why didn't you let out a single smile then?” he asked.“I have never smiled so far, ” the Queen replied.The King tried over and over again, but failed repeatedly, and in the end he gave orders, “Anyone both in and out of court who can amuse Bao Si will be awarded one thousand pieces of gold.”Afterwards Guo Shifu, a treacherous court official came and offered advice: “Set the beacon tower on fire and fool your sovereign rulers.” That night the King and Queen reached the Lishan Mountain by carriage, and gave the order. In the split second the flames of the fire lit up the sky ad the sovereign rulers moved their troops immediately to the Lishan Mountain. There they found nothing but that the King and Queen enjoyed drinking festively. The King then dispatched his bodyguard to inform them that “Everythingshould have been all right. I have just been joking with you.” When they got this, they looked at each other in blank dismay, and left disappointed. Sure enough, Bao Si burst into laughter, stroking her hands when she noticed all the troops come in vain and go noisily. Accordingly, Guo Shifu got a prize of one thousand pieces of gold. Later on King You did so more often than not. In 771 B.C. Quan Rong (a then minority tribe) staged an armed rebellion against the Western Zhou Dynasty. King You ordered urgently to set the beacon tower on fire, but all the sovereign rulers remained unmoved. Consequently King Yu was killed, and Bao Si was taken away. The Western Zhou dynasty vanished. Herein come the Chinese idiom “A single smile costs one thousand pieces of gold” and “The sovereign rulers are fooled by the beacon fire.”You ordered urgently to set the beacon tower on fire, but all the sovereign rulers remained unmoved. Consequently King Yu was killed, and Bao Si was taken away. The Western Zhou dynasty vanished. Herein com e the Chinese idiom “A single smile costs one thousand pieces of gold” and “The sovereign rulers are fooled by the beacon fire.”。

a historic monument in Shaanxi Province.
钟楼始建于1384年。最初位于西大街的迎祥观。当时,这里是西安 城的中心。公元1582年,西安城扩建,钟楼位置偏到城西侧,于是将原 来的钟楼拆掉,在扩大了的西安城正中,重新修建了钟楼。
The Bell Tower was first built in 1384 in the Yingxiang Temple which used to be located in the center of the city.The tower was moved to its present place in 1582 as a result of the city expansion programme.
ቤተ መጻሕፍቲ ባይዱ
和钟楼遥遥相对,在钟楼西北方半华里处,可以看到又一座宏伟的 古建筑——鼓楼。它创建于公元1380年,比钟楼早4年。以前楼上悬架 一面大鼓,傍晚击鼓报时,与钟楼上的钟形成“晨钟”“暮鼓”,故称 作鼓楼。后来不再用来报时,是在战争时才擂鼓报警。
About 300 metres to the northwest of the Bell Tower,stands another magnificent building_The Drum Tower,which was built in 1380,four years older than the Bell Tower.There used to be a huge drum in the tower which told the time at dusk;hence,the name Drum Tower.The bell in the Bell Tower and the drum in the Drum Tower,have been referred to as"The Morning Bell"and the "Dusk Drum". Later,the drum was no longer used to tell time but only to give warnings to peopels in times of war.
There have been various legendary tales about the Bell Tower.In the Ming Dynasty tens of thousands people were killed in several earthquakes on Central Shaanxi Plain.People said that a gigantic dragon in the huge undercurrent that flowed beneath the city caused all those quacks. When the goverer of the city heard this,he ordered all the smiths in the city to make a chain 300 meters long to chain the dragon at the bottom of the undercurrent,right in the center of the city.He then ordered 5,000 skillful craftsmen to build the tower over the place where the dragon was chained so that it would be weighed down to the bottom of the under-current forever,its eveil spells.

钟楼基座是正方形,占地1377.4平方米,高8.6米,宽35.5米,全部 用青砖砌成。楼为砖木结构,高36米。外部重檐3层,但内部仅上下两层。 楼檐四角攒顶,檐下饰有彩绘斗拱。“斗拱”是我国古代木结构建筑的特 点之一。在世界建筑史上也是独一无二的。它不但能使建筑物更加牢固, 而且更加美观。斗拱在商代就已出现,在我国青铜器的花纹上,可以看到 较完整的斗拱图像。建国后,市人民政府对钟楼进行了3次大规模的修葺, 使这座古建筑又放出了昔日的光彩。现在,沿钟楼内木楼梯盘旋而上,古 城风貌尽收眼底,在晴朗的日子里,还可以看见远处的终南山呢!
这个传说听起来十分荒诞,然而并不是一点缘由也没有。明太祖朱 元璋出身贫苦,父母早逝后,只好给别人放羊,后又出家当了和尚。他 当皇帝后,怕全国各地出现真龙天子和他争位,于是就下令各地广俢钟 楼镇压龙气。秦中自古帝王州,龙气尤盛,朱元璋当然更为害怕。因而 西安的钟楼不但修得早,而且也修得高。
The tale may sound absurd;however,it is not without reason.The first emperor of the Ming Dynasty was born in a poor family.His parents died when he was young.He had to work as a shepherd,herding sheep for the rich ter he went to a temple and became a monk.When he ascended the throne,he was afraid of being deposed by someone of real "dragon".Therefore,he ordered bell towers to be built all over the country to repress the "dragon spirits".Xi'an has been the site of imperial capitals ever since ancient times.Just as popular then as now,the saying that the"dragon spirits" must be running rampant here comes from this belief.This made Zhu Yuanzhang,the emperor,all the more afraid.Therefore, the Bell Tower in Xi'an was not only built earlier,but also taller than the other ones in the

在西安繁华的东西南北四条大街交汇处,巍然屹立着一座雕梁画栋、 气势雄伟的古典建筑物,它古时用来在清晨敲钟报时,故称钟楼从建成 之日起,钟楼就一直被看作是古城西安的象征,现为陕西省重点文物保 护单位。
In the downtown area of Xi'an at the intersection where the North,South,East and West Streets meet,stands a magnificent classical building.With carved beams and painted rafters,it's known as the Bell Tower.It has gained its name from the function it used to perform,to tell the time in the morning.Ever since its establishment,the tower has become the symbol of Xi'an.Now it is
关于钟楼,民间流传着种种神奇的传说。明朝关中几次发生地震, 死伤几万人。于是就有人说,西安市中心有一条大川流过,川中有条蛟 龙在兴风作浪,因此引起了地震。西安知府对此话深信不疑,即命全城 铁匠赶制了一条百余丈的铁链,将蛟龙锁住沉入川底。后又征用5000名 能工巧匠,在蛟龙被锁住的市中心夜以继日地赶俢钟楼,以便将蛟龙牢 牢地锁压川底,使它再无法兴妖作怪。说也奇怪,自从修了这座钟楼, 西安也就再没有发生过地震。
The square-shaped based of the tower occupies an area of 1337.4 square meters and is 8.6 meters high and 35.5 meters wide. The base was completely laid with blue bricks. The building proper is a mixed structure of bricks and wood, and it is 36 meters high. Three storeys of eaves are seen from the exterior of the building. The interior of the building is only two storeys. The eaves are supported by colorful dougong--a unique Chinese architectural style of brackets inserted on the top of column and crossbeams. They not only made the whole building firm, but also look artistic. In fact, the dougong architecture has a long history, dating far back to the Shang Dynasty. A comparatively complete design of dougong can still be seen, from the engravings on bronze wares dating back to the Warring States Period .Since 1949, the Municipal Government of Xi`an has launched three repair programmes on the tower. As a result, the tower now looks as great magnificent as when it was first built hundreds of years ago.Today,if you climb the Tower by way of its wooden stairs,you will command an extensive view over the whole city.If you are lucky to go on a fine day,your eye sight might reach as far as Zhongnan Mountain in the far southern suburb of the city.
