1、-承德避暑山庄英文导游词-第 9 页Chengde Imperial Summer Resort Welcome to the Chengde Imperial Summer Resort.I am your tour guide today and I hope we can share a good time here. Located in the northern part of Chengde ,Hebei province,Chengde Imperial Summer Resort covers an area of 5.64 million square meters.The
2、construction of the resort was began in 1703 (during the reign of the emperor Kangxi )and completed in1792(during the reign of the emperor Qianlong).It is the place where the emperors spent their summer days.It enjoys the repute as the epitome of Chinas landscape and the best classical Chinese garde
3、n,because it assimilate both the architecture style in northern and southern China.Besides the resort is blended into the nature.The whole mountain resort can be divided into the two part:the palace and the scenic area.The palace was the place where the emperor lived ,handled state affairs and held
4、ceremonies.The scenic area includes a Lake District, a District of Plains and a Mountainous District. Now ,we are standing at the main entrance of the summer resort.The antique door is called Lizheng door.On the top of the door ,there is a board on which the emperor Qianlong inscribed Lizheng door w
5、ith Manchu, Tibetan, Han, Uighur, Mongolian five different words .It symbolizes that China is a united multi-ethnic country.The two stone lions on each side show the emperors authority. As we entered the resort, we can see a huge stone pillar in the distant mountain on the right.The pillar is so tal
6、l as if it penetrate into the sky.The pillar is thick upsides and thin downsides,iust like a wooden club which the ancient people used to do the laundry.So people called it wooden club mountain and the emperor Kangxi gave the name “the chime hammer peak” to it.The designer of the resort took the adv
7、antage of the pillar to expand the sense of space and create a fresh prospect.Generally, tourists who visit the resort would touch the mountain by their own hands, for there is a saying pervading here “touch the wooden club mountain,you will live for 103 years”.Maybe you can climb the mountain and t
8、ouch it.It will be interesting. The palaces in front of us were the office and residence of the emperors,but it becomes the museum now. Here is the first exhibition room.I guess the first thing catches your eyesight must be panorama of the summer resort.The panorama shows the prosperous period of th
9、e Qing dynasty(from 17th century to 18th century).Almost every emperor of the former Qing dynasty came here in the April or May of lunar calendar to deal with administrative affairs and returned Beijing in September or October.In fact, the Chengde mountain resort became the second political center o
10、f Qing dynasty.However, the resort has gone through the vicissitudes as the dynasties changed.It is not until the founding of the PRC that the resort was restored. It now is the best preserved and the largest imperial garden in China.It also became one of the world cultural heritages and renowned to
11、urist attractions. Entering the second exhibition room, you can see a lot of pictures.Among them,the most remarkable picture is the picture of autumn Mulan.Mula means the deer whistle in Manchu language.But what is the deer whistle?The soldiers often sneaked into the forest,wearing the buckskin and
12、antlers,whistling and imitating the sound of stag.Since autumn is the mating period o the deer, soldiers could capture the female deer in this method.The picture was drawn by Xinglong A.It depicts the hunting scene of the emperor 200 years ago.You maybe wonder why the emperor led troops to this plac
13、e just for hunting.Actually ,it is not only for hunting but for the improvement of military capabilities.The military capabilities of valiant Eight Banners(the soldiers in Qing Dynasty) kept falling after the Manchu occupied the whole territory of China.Under the circumstance, the emperor Kangxi rea
14、lized that it is imperative to improve the military capabilities and consolidate the northern frontiers.So he personally led the troops to the northern frontiers for inspection and set the Mulan training center.The training center symbolizes the friendship among Mongolian,Tibetan and Manchu.It stren
15、gthened the communication of the people and consolidate the northern border to resist the Russian invasion. Now we are standing in front of the second door,”watching shoot door”.It is the place where the emperor watched the shooting matches among his sons or grandsons.There is also a board on the to
16、p of the door, which inscribe the Han character”Bi Shu Shan Zhuang” by emperor Kangxi.If you are able to recognize the Han character, you may found the character “Bi”is wrong and has a extra cross. Actually, the character can be written in two ways in Qing Dynasty, so it is correct.The emperor Kangx
17、i wrote in this way deliberately in order to balance the beauty of the calligraphy.Two majestic bronze lions are standing on the each side in front of the door.During the Anti-Japanese War,the Japanese soldiers invaded into Chengde and tried to loot the bronze lions.Because the heavy weight of the l
18、ions, the Japanese soldiers had to seek for tools in order to move the bronze lions.A elder people saw the whole process and felt painful.He was determined to protect the national treasure.Then he came up with a good idea.He painted the eyes of the lions with the pig blood.When the Japanese soldiers
19、 came back, they were horrified to the bloody eyes of the lions.They were afraid that the movement of the lions would bring bad luck to them and escaped hastily.Hence the bronze lions became the symbol of auspicious in peoples eyes.Touch it and you will be blessed. The grand hall we are stepping ont
20、o is the “Dan Bo Jing Cheng”hall.”Dan Bo”,which comes from the Book of Changes,means nothing would be lost if you have no worry and no desire.The emperor Kangxi revealed his prepared and thrifty spirit in the words.This is the main hall of the resort.It is also called “nanmu hall” because it is buil
21、t of nanmu,a kind of precious wood.During the monsoon, the aroma of nanmu will permeate into every corner of the hall.Nanmu grows on the mountain in Yunnan, Guizhou, Jiangsu, Zhejiang province which belongs to the southern part of China.At that time,there is no advanced transport,so it was strenuous
22、 to transport the heavy wood to the north.Most of the wood were transported by ship ,but when the river was frozen in the winter, people had to pull and drag the wood on the ice.It cost 72,000 liang ,a kind of coin in ancient China and 19,000 labors to complete the construction of the hall.The floor
23、 of the elegant hall is made of marbles.At the center of the hall, it is the throne of the emperor.The exquisite throne is engraved with the image of elephant,crane and so on.Behind the throne there is a rosewood screen on which the “Farming and Weaving”picture was painted.163 people was painted viv
24、idly on the picture.The picture reflects the emperors concerns about his people.In the Qing dynasty,the map of its territory was hanged on the left and right wall in the hall.As I said before, the hall was also a place for cerebration.Do you know how the the celebration went on?Let me tell you about
