Hello, everyone. Welcome to Chaohu, the beautiful "great garden of centralAnhui". I'm Wang Bing, the tour guide of Anhui travel agency. Today I'll showyou the dreamlike world in pictures and the dreamlike water town. When I meetyou for the first time, how about reciting a poem to help you have fun?

Chaohu Lake is like an inkstone, with Gushan as its ink mill. Laoshan islike a sheep's brush, which is enough to write the green sky eight line script.What about? Is it domineering? Ha ha, don't be fooled by Xiao Wang. Thismagnificent seven character poem is not written by me. It comes from LiHongzhang, a famous person in Hefei. What is the beauty of his poetry? Let's goto the bottom together!

On the way to Chaohu, I'd like to tell you a beautiful legend: we all knowthat Chaohu is named because it looks like a bird's nest, but do you know theorigin of its other name "Jiaohu"? According to the records of Soushenji, Chaohuwas a state in ancient times. One year, there was a severe drought. Xiaobailongsecretly rained to eliminate the drought. He broke the heavenly rule and wasbeaten down. He met grandma Jiao to help him. In return for Jiao's help, XiaoBailong tells the emperor of heaven that he will sink into Chaohu Lake. WhenJiao gets the news, she runs around and tells the people of Chaohu Lake thatthey are saved. But Jiao's mother and daughter delayed their escape by tellingthe neighbors, and they were engulfed by the torrential flood. Later generationsadmired Jiao's noble character of sacrificing herself to save others, so theynamed the lake "Jiao Lake" and a mountain in the lake "Lao Mountain".

We look out of the window. Now the water area that comes into our eyes isChaohu Lake. As a matter of fact, Chaohu Lake is a faulted lake. As early asJurassic and Cretaceous, the strata around Chaohu Lake were faulted, whichhindered the water flow in the eastern Piedmont of Dabie Mountain in WesternChina and formed a vast water surface. After tens of millions of years ofcrustal movement and sediment deposition, about 15000 years ago, today's ChaohuLake was formed. It covers an area of more than 800 square kilometers, known as"eight hundred Li Lake sky", and is also one of the five largest freshwaterlakes in China.

Chaohu scenic spot is a national key scenic spot, mainly includingZhongmiao, Laoshan and Yinping mountain. Now when we get off the bus, we come toZhongmiao and Laoshan Scenic spots, which are the most concentrated andcharacteristic scenic spots. It is a tourist scenic spot integrating lake,mountain, island, tower, temple and temple. First of all, let's take a look atZhongmiao, which is named after its location between Hefei and Chaoxian. TheZhongmiao temple was first built in the Han Dynasty and has a history of morethan 20__ years. And its most brilliant time was "Jiuhua in the south, Zhongmiaoin the north", which was very popular. During the important festivals, thepilgrimage team reached dozens of miles. Let's have a look at the bluestonesteps under our feet. That's the famous shibada. Only by passing it can we cometo the big temple of Zhongmiao. It is said that this place was originally aTaoist temple. At the beginning of the temple, what was worshiped was BixiaYuanjun, which is now the "Empress of the temple". By the Wei, Jin, southern andNorthern Dynasties, Buddhism began to prevail, Taoism gradually declined, so theoriginal Taoist temple gradually became a Buddhist temple.

Walking through the temple, you can see that there are three islands in thelake in the distance, and the biggest one is Laoshan, which is about 3000 metersaway from the temple. Although it is only 4000 meters around the island, thereare three mountains and nine peaks, with many historic sites. Among them, themost famous is the three antiques of Laoshan: ancient pagoda, ancient temple andancient boat pond. There is another story about the ancient pagoda: the ancientpagoda was built in the late Ming Dynasty, but it was not completed due to theoutbreak of the nongming uprising. During the reign of Emperor Guangxu of theQing Dynasty, local gentry lobbied Li Hongzhang to say, "with the tip of LaoshanMountain, Luzhou came out first." Li Hongzhang was very happy to hear that, andordered to raise funds to build the pagoda and named it "Wenfeng pagoda".Standing on the Wenfeng tower, you can also see huazangjing temple, an ancienttemple of three ancient times in Zhanmu mountain. Huazangjing temple is anancient temple built in memory of jiaolao, goddess of Chaohu. It was first builtin the Jin Dynasty and rebuilt in the late Qing Dynasty when Wenfeng pagoda wasbuilt. It was renamed "Chaohu Temple" and "SHENGFEI Temple". After seeing thesecond ancient of Laoshan, you must want to know the third ancient boat pond ofLaoshan. This ancient boat pond is the harbor surrounded by huge stones that hitone or two kilos. There are two harbors like this. Do you know why? Because ofthe southeast wind in the first half of the year and the northwest wind in thesecond half of the year, two boat ponds were built. It is the warship haven ofChaohu Navy.

Well, the good time is always short. After tasting the delicacy of "Chaohuthree treasures" silver fish, white shrimp and crab, our trip today is over. Ibelieve that in the near future, I can still lead you to visit Chaohu again andtaste three treasures!

The Great Wall, like the Pyramids of Egypt, the Taj Mahal(1) in India andthe Hanging Garden of Babylon(2), is one of the great wonders of the world.Starting out in the east on the banks of the Yalu River in Liaoning Province,the Wall stretches westwards for 12,700 kilometers to Jiayuguan in the Gobidesert, thus known as the Ten Thousand Li Wall in China. The Wall climbs up anddown, twists and turns along the ridges of the Yanshan and Yinshan MountainChains through five provinces-Liaoning, Hebei, Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Gansu--andtwo autonomous regions--Ningxia and Inner Mongolia, binding the northern Chinatogether.

Historical records trace the construction of the origin of the Wall todefensive fortification back to the year 656 B.C. during the reign of King Chengof the States of Chu. Its construction continued throughout the Warring Statesperiod in the fifth Century B.C. when ducal states Yan, Zhao, Wei, and Qin werefrequently plundered by the nomadic peoples living north of the Yinshan andYanshan mountain ranges. Walls, then, were built separately by these ducalstates to ward off such harassments. Later in 221 B.C., when Qin conquered theother states and unified China, Emperor Qinshihuang ordered the connection ofthese individual walls and further extensions to form the basis of the presentgreat wall. As a matter of fact, a separate outer wall was constructed north ofthe Yinshan range in the Han Dynasty(206 BC--1644 BC.), which went to ruinthrough years of neglect. In the many intervening centuries, succeedingdynasties rebuilt parts of the Wall. The most extensive reinforcements andrenovations were carried out in the Ming Dynasty (1368--1644) when altogether 18lengthy stretches were reinforced with bricks and rocks. it is mostly the MingDynasty Wall that visitors see today. The Great Wall is divided into twosections, the east and west, with Shanxi Province as the dividing line. The westpart is a rammed earth construction, about 5.3 meters high on average. In theeastern part, the core of the Wall is rammed earth as well, but the outer shellis reinforced with bricks and rocks. The most imposing and best preservedsections of the Great Wall are at Badaling and Mutianyu, not far from Beijingand both are open to visitors. The Wall of those sections is 7.8 meters high and6.5 meters wide at its base, narrowing to 5.8 meters on the ramparts, wideenough for five horses to gallop abreast. There are ramparts, embrasures,peep-holes and apertures for archers on the top, besides gutters with gargoylesto drain rain-water off the parapet walk. Two-storied watch-towers are built atapproximately 400-meters internals. The top stories of the watch-tower weredesigned for observing enemy movements, while the first was used for storinggrain, fodder, military equipment and gunpowder as well as for quarteringgarrison soldiers. The highest watch-tower at Badaling standing on a hill-top,is reached only after a steep climb, like "climbing a ladder to heaven". Theview from the top is rewarding, hoverer. The Wall follows the contour ofmountains that rise one behind the other until they finally fade and merge withdistant haze. A signal system formerly existed that served to communicatemilitary information to the dynastic capital. This consisted of beacon towers onthe Wall itself and on mountain tops within sight of the Wall. At the approachof enemy troops, smoke signals gave the alarm from the beacon towers in thedaytime and bonfire did this at night.

Emergency signals could be relayed to the capital from distant placeswithin a few hour long before the invention of anything like moderncommunications. There stand 14 major passes (Guan, in Chinese) at places ofstrategic importance along the Great Wall, the most important being Shanghaiguanand Jiayuguan. Yet the most impressive one is Juyongguan, about 50 kilometersnorthwest of Beijing. Known as "Tian Xia Di YI Guan" (The First Pass UnderHeaven), Shanghaiguan Pass is situated between two sheer cliffs forming a neckconnecting north China with the northeast. It had been, therefore, a keyjunction contested by all strategists and many famous battles were fought here.It was the gate of Shanghaiguan that the Ming general Wu Sangui opened to theManchu army to suppress the peasant rebellion led by Li Zicheng and sosurrendered the whole Ming empire to the Manchus, leading to the foundation ofthe Qing Dynasty. (1644-1911) Jiayuguan Pass was not so much as the "Strategicpass Under the Heaven" as an important communication center in Chinese history.Cleft between the snow-capped Qilian Mountains and the rolling Mazong Mountains,it was on the ancient Silk Road. Zhang Qian, the first envoy of Emperor Wu Di ofthe Western Han dynasty (206 B.C-24 A.D), crossed it on his journey to thewestern regions. Later, silk flowed to the west through this pass too. Thegate-tower of Jiayuguan is an attractive building of excellent workmanship. Ithas an inner city and an outer city, the former square in shape and surroundedby a wall 11.7 meters high and 730 meters in circumference. It has two gates, aneastern one and a western one. On each gate sits a tower facing each other. thefour corners of the wall are occupied by four watch towers, one for each.Juyongguan, a gateway to ancient Beijing from Inner Mongolia, was built in a15-kilometer long ravine flanked by mountains. The cavalrymen of Genghis Khanswept through it in the 13th century. At the center of the pass is a whitemarble platform named the Cloud terrace, which was called the Crossing-StreetDagoba, since its narrow arch spanned the main street of the pass and on the topof the terrace there used to be three stone dagobas, built in the YuanDaynasty(1206-1368). At the bottom of the terrace is a half-octagonal archgateway, interesting for its wealth of detail: it is decorated with splendidimages of Buddha and four celestial guardians carved on the walls. The vividnessof their expressions is matched by the exquisite workmanship. such grandioserelics works, with several stones pieced together, are rarely seen in ancientChinese carving. The gate jambs bear a multi-lingual Buddhist sutra, carved some600 years ago in Sanskrit(3), Tibetan, Mongolian, Uigur(4), Han Chinese and thelanguage of Western Xia. Undoubtedly, they are valuable to the study of Buddhismand ancient languages. As a cultural heritage, the Wall belongs not only toChina but to the world. The Venice charter says: "Historical and culturalarchitecture not only includes the individual architectural works, but also theurban or rural environment that witnessed certain civilizations, significantsocial developments or historical events." The Great Wall is the largest of suchhistorical and cultural architecture, and that is why it continues to be soattractive to people all over the world. In 1987, the Wall was listed by UNESCOas a world cultural heritage site.

This is the palace museum; also know as the Purple Forbidden City. It isthe largest and most well reserved imperial residence in China today. Under MingEmperor Yongle, construction began in 1406. It took 14years to build theForbidden City. The first ruler who actually lived here was Ming Emperor Zhudi.For five centuries thereafter, it continued to be the residence of23 successiveemperors until 1911 when Qing Emperor Puyi was forced to abdicate the throne .In1987, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organizationrecognized the Forbidden City was a world cultural legacy.

It is believed that the Palace Museum, or Zi Jin Cheng (Purple ForbiddenCity), got its name from astronomy folklore, The ancient astronomers divided theconstellations into groups and centered them around the Ziwei Yuan(North Star).The constellation containing the North Star was called the Constellation ofHeavenly God and star itself was called the purple palace. Because the emperorwas supposedly the son of the heavenly gods, his central and dominant positionwould be further highlighted the use of the word purple in the name of hisresidence. In folklore, the term ”an eastern purple cloud is drifting” became ametaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud was seen drifting eastwardimmediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher, LaoZi, to the HanghuPass. Here, purple is associated with auspicious developments. The word jin(forbidden) is self-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded andoff-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-limits toordinary people.

The red and yellow used on the palace walls and roofs are also symbolic.Red represents happiness, good fortune and wealth. Yellow is the color of theearth on the Loess Plateau, the original home of the Chinese people. Yellowbecame an imperial color during the Tang dynasty, when only members of the royalfamily were allowed to wear it and use it in their architecture.

The Forbidden City is rectangular in shape. It is 960 meters long fromnorth to south and 750 meter wide from east west. It has 9,900 rooms under atotal roof area 150,000 square meters .A 52-meter-wide-moat encircles a9.9-meter—high wall which encloses the complex. Octagon —shaped turrets rest onthe four corners of the wall. There are four entrances into the city: theMeridian Gate to the south, the Shenwu Gate(Gate of Military Prowess) to thenorth, and the Xihua Gate(Gate of military Prowess) to the north, and the XihuaGate(Western Flowery Gate )to the west ,the Donghua (Eastern Flowery Gate) tothe east.

Manpower and materials throughout the country were used to build theForbidden City. A total of 230,000 artisans and one million laborers wereemployed. Marble was quarried from fangshan Country Mount Pan in Jixian Countyin Hebei Province. Granite was quarried in Quyang County in Hebei Province.Paving blocks were fired in kilns in Suzhou in southern China. Bricks andscarlet pigmentation used on the palatial walls came from linqing in ShandongProvince .Timber was cut ,processed and hauled from the northwestern andsouthern regions.

The structure in front of us is the Meridian Gate. It is the main entranceto the forbidden City. It is also knows as Wufenglou(Five-Phoenix Tower). Mingemperors held lavish banquets here on the 15th day of the first month of theChinese lunar year in hornor of their counties .They also used this place forpunishing officals by flogging them with sticks.

Qing emperors used this building to announce the beginning of the new year.Qing Emperor Qianglong changed the original name of this announcement ceremonyfrom ban li(announcement of calendar)to ban shou(announcement of new moon )toavoid coincidental association with another Emperor` s name, Hongli, which wasconsidered a taboo at that time. Qing Dynasty emperors also used this place tohold audience and for other important ceremonies. For example,when the imperialarmy returned victoriously from the battlefield ,it was here that the Emperorpresided over the ceremony to accept prisoners of war.

Tourists,

hello everyone! Today, we are going to visit Chaohu Lake, one of China'sfive major freshwater lakes and a national key scenic spot. Before visiting, letme give you an overview of it. Chaohu Lake is located in the middle of AnhuiProvince. It is named after its bird nest shape. It is 54.5 kilometers long fromeast to west, 21 kilometers wide from north to south, and covers an area of morethan 800 square kilometers. Now it is the "Inner Lake" of Hefei. Since ancienttimes, it has the reputation of "eight hundred Li Lake sky". There are mountainsin the lake and water in the mountains. It is known for its beautiful scenery.Chaohu Lake is also a famous land of fish and rice. Its silverfish, white riceshrimp and crabs are known as "three treasures of Chaohu Lake".

Chaohu, also known as "Jiaohu". It is said that Chaohu was a state inancient times. One year when it was dry, xiaobailong secretly rained to get ridof the drought. He broke the rule of heaven and was banished to earth by theemperor of heaven. In order to repay her for saving her life, she told her thatthe emperor of heaven was going to sink into Chaozhou. She told the villagers intime to make them die. However, she delayed her escape and was drowned by theflood. Later, in order to commemorate the spirit of sacrificing herself forothers, people called the lake "Jiaohu" and named a mountain in the lake"Laoshan". Of course, this is only a legend. The real formation of Chaohu Lakeis the result of crustal movement.

Today, we mainly visit Zhongmiao, Laoshan island and yinpingshan peony.Dear tourists, our current location is Zhongmiao pier. This temple is Zhongmiao.Why is it called Zhongmiao? This ancient temple is named because it is locatedbetween Hefei and Chaohu Lake. It is known as "the most beautiful place in thelake". Due to the strong fragrance in the past dynasties, it is known as "SouthJiuhua, North Temple". The Zhongmiao temple was built in the Han Dynasty and hasa history of more than 20__ years. Since the Han Dynasty, it has been abandonedand repaired many times. In 1889, the 15th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu,Li Hongzhang proposed to raise funds to build the temple. There were more than70 temples. Please have a look. What's this? Yes, it's a stick. It's used by theTaoist in the Taoist temple to hang incantations. As we all know, it is unlikelythat there is such a big stick in front of a Buddhist temple. It is said that itused to be a Taoist temple. At the beginning, it was Bixia Yuanjun, the "Empressof Zhongmiao" that we worship now. In the Wei, Jin, southern and NorthernDynasties, Buddhism began to prevail, Taoism gradually declined, so the originalTaoist temple became a Buddhist temple.

Ladies and gentlemen, please follow me. Now let's take a cruise to visitLaoshan island. Laoshan island is the largest of the three major islands inChaohu, about 3 kilometers away from Zhongmiao. There are more than 90 familiesand more than 200 people on the island. They live by fishing for a long time.The ecological environment of Laoshan island is very good, and the vegetationcoverage rate reaches 99%. The tower we see now is Wenfeng tower. Wenfeng towerwas built in the Chongzhen period of Ming Dynasty. When it was built on thefourth floor, it was shut down because of the peasant uprising. During the reignof Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty, local squires lobbied Li Hongzhang tosay: Li Zhongtang, our temple, has a local saying that "the top of MountLaoshan, the top of Luzhou". Li Hongzhang, a native of Luzhou, who is now fromHefei, was very happy after hearing this, so he decided to raise money to buildthe pagoda and named it "Wenfeng pagoda". Wenfeng tower is now seven storyoctagonal, 133 steps, 51 meters high, the top of the tower inlaid with LiHongzhang. Standing on the tower, you can see shoshan and Gushan.

Ladies and gentlemen, after visiting Laoshan Island, we are going to visitYinping mountain peony. When it comes to peony, you will think of many poemsabout peony. One of them is "natural beauty, people can't give up, and the earthnurtures the famous flower, and the guest comes". Today, we come to Yinpingmountain to enjoy the magic peony. Please look in the direction of my finger.There are four big characters on the cliff which is tens of feet high: strangeflowers on the silver screen. There is a cluster of flowers 1.5 meters above the"strange" character. This is the wild white peony on the silver screen, which isthe "most wonderful flower in the world". Every year, in the rainy season, theflowers are in full bloom,

People from all over the world will come here to watch peonies. It is saidthat this wild white peony has magical aura, which can predict the year sceneryand drought and flood situation from its blooming and withering, more and less:for example, five flowers bloom, good weather and good harvest; flowers bloomearly and wither early, there will be drought and so on. Therefore, the localpeople call her "weather flower" and "God flower". In 1998, the Institute ofbiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences calculated that this wild white peonymay be the ancestor of the existing tree peony, and it is also the only and lasttree in the world, which has been included in the Chinese famous placesdictionary.

Well, today's visit ends here. I hope today's visit will leave you a goodand deep memory! thank you!

Tianjin is a good choice as a travel destination. With its cool sea breezeand fresh sea air you will definitely feel refreshed. Historical relics, naturalscenery, temples, churches, assembly halls and commemorative sites of theChinese revolution will illuminate Tianjin's past, present and future. Tianjinis honored as 'Building Museum' as it was occupied by nine imperial powersbefore the founding of the new China, leaving behind many buildings withextraordinary and exotic architectural styles, a real feast for the eye! In thefollowing text let me give you a brief introduction to the Jinmen Shijing (topten scenic attractions in Tianjin).

Huangyaguan Great Wall :

Located in the mountainous area of Tianjin's northern Ji County, theHuangyaguan Great Wall was first built during the Northern Qi Dynasty (550 -557) and repaired in large scale with bricks during the Ming Dynasty (1368 -1644). When appointed as the chief commanding officer in the Ji Garrison (one ofthe eleven garrisons of the Ming Dynasty), Qi Jiguang added watch towers andother defensive works.

The Huangyaguan Great Wall comes out first in the ten most-visited sites inTianjin. It is considered to be a miniature of the Great Wall. The entiresection is built on an abrupt mountain ridge. Being endowed with both naturalbeauty and cultural interest, it has become famous as a natural beauty spot anda summer resort. The major scenic area is composed of Huangyaguan Pass andTaiping Mountain Stronghold.

Huangyaguan Pass: In 1984, the people of Tianjin spent three yearsrepairing 3,308 yards of the main wall from Banlagang Mountain in the east toWangmaoding Mountain in the west. They restored 20 terraces, the HuangyaguanWater Gate, and the Bagua Castle (the Eight Diagrams Castle). The defensivesystem of the wall is complete. Watch towers, frontier cities, drain holes,emplacements, barracks and other indispensable military facilities are arrangedorderly along the wall. Besides, the stele forests of the Great Wall, BeijiTemple, the exhibition hall of famous couplets, the Great Wall Museum (the firstmuseum along the Great Wall) and the Phoenix Fortress have been newly builtwithin the area.

Taipingzhai Great Wall :

Six miles southeast of Huangyaguan Pass is the Taipingzhai Great Wall,another important mountain stronghold of the wall during the Ming Dynasty (1368- 1644). It is also called Taipinganzhai, meaning "a village of peace andprosperity". Starting from Banlagang Mountain in the east and arriving at GuafuTower (Widow Tower) in the west, it winds through the precipitous mountains forabout 955 yards.

The wall is an important component of Huangyaguan Great Wall. There are sixwatch towers, one battlement, and one shortcut leading to the wall. Thearchitectural styles of the military towers vary considerably. There are square,round, solid and hollow towers, with some inside and others outside the wall.Beside the shortcut, there is a small citadel where an 8.5-meter statue of QiJiguang, the chief commanding officer of Ji Garrison (one of the elevengarrisons in the Ming Dynasty) is located. The local people built this statue inorder to commemorate his great contribution to frontier peace and stability inthat period. To the west of the citadel, a section of the wall extends 33 yardsout to where a sentry post was situated.

At the western end of the wall is a square stone tower called Guafu Tower,"Widow Tower" in English, built by twelve wives whose husbands died during theconstruction of the wall in the Ming Dynasty. The widows erected this tower tocommemorate their husbands' notable exploits. The tower has two levels andmeasures 13-meters (14-yards) high. Arched arrow windows are on the four sidesof the tower.

Besides these cultural points of interest, Taipingzhai Great Wall is alsofamous for its amazingly impressive scenery. Zigzagging along the mountain ridgefor over 984 yards, the wall looks very much like a giant dragon flying throughclouds.

Mt. Panshan Scenic Area :

Covering an area of 106 square kilometers (about 26193 acres), Mt. PanshanScenic Area is located in Jixian County, 110 kilometers (68.4 miles) away fromTianjin, 88 kilometers (54.7 miles) away from Beijing. As the name suggests, thescenic area is mainly Mt Panshan–oriented. Endowed with natural beauty and ahistorical heritage, Mt Panshan is known as 'The First Mountain East of Beijing'and is listed as one of the top fifteen mountains in China.

The mountain acquired its present name, early in the Eastern Han (25-220).Taizong , the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty (618-907), was prodigal of hispraise of its scenery on his chance visit when he led the army in a campaign.Seventy-two temples, thirteen pagodas and numerous Xanadus and towers were builton the mountain in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and the Qing Dynasty(1644-1911). Qianlong, a brilliant and wise Qing Dynasty emperor was soimpressed that he made thirty or so visits and wrote 1366 poems to express hisadmiration of the area. In the first half of the twentieth century, the wholeresort all fell to ruin due to hostilities and neglect. It has undergone aprocess of restoration since the 1990s and is now regaining its fame.

It is famous for jade pine trees, strange and astonishing peaks, clearwaters, grotesquely shaped rocks and clusters of ancient temples. On themountaintop, numerous pines hide the sky from view and block out the sunshine.Rugged rocks in a variety of shapes, some of which resemble a toad, a general ora boa, will greet you in the middle of the mountain. At its foot, clear watersplashes on the rocks. The mountain consists of five peaks, with the main one,Guayue (Moon Hanging) Peak. Although Guayue Peak is only 857 meters (2811.7feet) above sea level, to the north it is possible to see a section of the GreatWall while to the west Mt Taihang can be seen.

From the Wei State during the Three Kingdoms Period (220-280) onwards,emperors enthusiastically commissioned the building of temples, towers andXanadus resulting in over 160 such sites. There are four main temples: TianchengTemple (God Proposing Temple), Yunzhao Temple (Cloud-Hiding Temple), WanfoTemple (Ten Thousand-Buddha Temple) and Wansong Temple (Ten Thousand-PineTemple). Tiancheng Temple built in the Tang Dynasty, was enlarged and repairedin the Ming and the Qing dynasties. To the east of this temple stands theAncient Dagoba. As the biggest tower in this mountain, it has thirteen floors.The roof of the Yunzhao Temple was a golden yellow, a color that normally wasonly allowed to be used on imperial buildings. By granting permission for this,Emperor Qianlong demonstrated his approval and admiration of the mountain. WanfoTemple (Ten Thousand-Buddha Temple) has 10,960 small Buddhas statues.

_Question: (Outside the resort, to sitimulate the tourist’s interests)

Our garden experts said that, the Summer Vacation Mountain Village is theminiature of our beautiful motherland. Why can the experts say like this?

_Introduction:

Chengde Summer Resort is in the northern part of Chengde city, Heibeiprovince. Chengde Imperial Palace also known as the Rehe Place, where Qingemperors spent their summer days and work in, so it was not an imperial summerpalace in its usual meaning, but became a important centre next to Beijing.

_Knowledge about the layout:

There are two parts of the resort――the palaces and a scenic area.

The palaces were for emperors to handled political affairs and lived in.The scenic area includes lakes, hills and grassland. There are eight artificiallakes. Emperor kangXi commented the resort as “having the mountains as the boneand water as the heart ”. Emperor QianLong’s remark, “Though it is named asmountain resort, its beauty is in water” highlighted the feature of the resort.Because KangXi and QianLong have toured in south China many times andappreciated a lot of beauties there, so that beauties were like been moved bythe emperors into the resort. So this garden has the north and south style in abody.

Tian’anmen Rostrum

Tian’anmen( the Gate of Heavenly Peace), is located in the center ofBeijing. It was first built in 1417 and named Chengtianmen( the Gate of HeavenlySuccession). At the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was seriously damaged by war.When it was rebuilt under the Qing in 1651, it was renamed Tian’anmen, andserved as the main entrance to the Imperial City, the administrative andresidential quarters for court officials and retainers. The southern sections ofthe Imperial City wall still stand on both sides of the Gate. The tower at thetop of the gate is nine-room wide and five –room deep. According to the Book ofChanges, the two numbers nine and five, when combined, symbolize the supremestatus of a sovereign.During the Ming and Qing dynasties, Tian’anmen was theplace where state ceremonies took place. The most important one of them was theissuing of imperial edicts, which followed these steps:

1) The Minister of Rites would receive the edict in Taihedian( Hall ofSupreme Harmony), where the Emperor was holding his court. The minister wouldthen carry the decree on a yunpan( tray of cloud), and withdraw from the hallvia Taihemen( Gate of supreme Harmony)

2) The Minister would put the tray in a miniature longting( dragonpavilion). Beneath a yellow umbrella and carry it via Wumen( Meridian Gate), toTian’anmen Gate tower.

3) A courtier would be invested to proclaim the edict. The civil andmilitary officials lining both sides of the gateway beneath the tower wouldprostrate themselves in the direction of the emperor in waiting for the decreeto the proclaimed.

4) The courtier would then put the edict in a phoenix-shaped wooden box andlower it from the tower by means of a silk cord. The document would finally becarried in a similar tray of cloud under a yellow umbrella to the Ministry ofRites.

5) The edict, copied on yellow paper, would be made known to the wholecountry.

Such a process was historically recorded as “ Imperial Edict Issued byGolden Phoenix”.During the Ming and Qing dynasties Tian’anmen was the mostimportant passage. It was this gate that the Emperor and his retinue would gothrough on their way to the altars for ritual and religious activities.

On the Westside of Tian’anmen stands ZhongshanPark( Dr. Sun Yat-sen’sPark), and on the east side, the Working People’s Cultural Palave. The Park wasformerly called Shejitan( Altar of Land and Grain), built in 1420 for offeringsacrificial items to the God of Land. It was opened to the public as a park in1914 and its name was changed in 1928 to the present one in memory of the greatpioneer of the Chinese Democratic Revolution.The Working People’s CulturalPalace used to be Taimiao( the Supreme Ancestral Temple), where tablets of thedeceased dynastic rulers were kept.

The stream in front of Tian’anmen is called Waijinshuihe( Outer GoldenRiver),with seven marble bridges spanning over it . Of these sevenbridges,historical records say the middle one was for the exclusive use of theemperor and was accordingly called Yuluqiao( Imperial Bridge). The bridgesflanking it on either side were meant for the members of the royal family andwere therefore called Wanggongqiao( Royal’s Bridges). Farther away on each sideof the two were bridges for officials ranking above the third order and werenamed Pinjiqiao( ministerial Bridges). The remaining two bridges were for theuse by the retinue below the third order and wre called Gongshengqiao( commonBridges). They anr the one in front of the Supreme Ancestral Temple to the eastand the one in front of the Altar of land and Grain to the west.

The two stone lions by the Gate of Tian’anmen, one on each side were meantas sentries. They gaze toward the middle axis, guarding the emperor’s walkway.In front of the gate stands a pair of marble columns called Huabiao. They areelaborately cut in bas-relief following the pattern of a legendary dragon.Behind the gate stands another pair of similar columns. The story of Huabiao maybe traced to a couple of sources. One of the versions accredits its invention toone of the Chinese sage kings named Yao, who was said to have set up a woodenpillar in order to allow the ordinary people to expose evil-doers, hence it wasoriginally called a slander pillar. Later it ws reduced to a signpost, and nowit serves as an ornament.
