长城景点详细介绍英文
A. 英语介绍金山岭长城
世人瞩目的金山岭长城是明长城最具有代表性的地段之一,位于河北省滦平县与北京市密云县交界处。始建于明洪武元年(公元1368年),为大将徐达主持修建。隆庆元年(公元1567年)抗倭名将蓟镇总兵官戚继光、蓟辽总督谭纶在徐达所建长城的基础上续建、改建。为全国重点文物保护单位、国家级风景区、一级旅游景点,并列入《世界文化遗产名录》。
金山岭长城西起龙岭口,东止望京楼,全长10.5公里。沿线设有建筑各异的敌楼67座,烽燧二座,大小关隘五处,是现保存最完好的一段明长城,被专家称之为明长城之精华。依山设险、凭水置塞,雄城起伏似钢墙铁壁。雕楼林立,如甲兵护卫,“一夫当关,万夫莫开”。以其视野开阔,敌楼密集,建筑防御体系功能奇特而著称于世。国家领导多次到此视察并给予了高度评价,“万里长城,金山独秀”多少专家无不为金山岭长城的精美设计而发出由衷的赞叹。
漫步于金山岭长城之上,可见到船蓬顶、四角钻天顶、八角藻井顶、穹窿顶等内部结构建筑形式各异的敌楼。军事防御体系极强,设有障墙、战台、炮台、了望台、雷石孔、射孔、挡马墙、支墙、围战墙等,层层设防,可谓固若金汤。登上金山岭长城倾心感受古长城的壮美与雄浑,便可体会一个民族的伟大与豪迈。
金山岭长城风景区32平方公里内峰峦叠翠、青山满目。这里,春天山花烂漫,浓郁飘香;盛夏万木葱笼,云雾飘渺;金秋漫山红遍、层林尽染;严冬银装素裹、白雪皑皑。在这如诗如画的天地间,处处是美景,处处有奇观,实在令人叫绝。
位于京郊古北口长城东南十余公里处,属河北省滦平县管辖。金山岭海拔700米,登山北观群山似涛,东望司马台水库如镜,南眺密云水库碧波粼粼。长城依山凭险,起伏跌宕于山水之间,形势极为雄奇。尤其此处敌楼密集,构筑精巧,形式多样,是八达岭、山海关、嘉峪关等地长城绝难媲美的,为万里长城中正在开发的旅游胜境之一。金山岭长城蜿蜒曲折,视野开阔,敌楼密集,雄伟壮观。长城内外高山峻岭,林海苍茫,春夏秋冬四季适宜徒步旅游和登临
为深挖旅游资源,打造金山岭长城品牌,更好地服务于游人,满足多种游客的需求,景区内修建了长800米的旅游索道一条。并建有卡丁车、速降等娱乐项目。为丰富金山岭长城夜间的娱乐活动,现又新建了3公里的夜长城。按着省、市领导的指示,与京承公路相连4公里旅游路进行了拓宽翻新改造。
“亚洲飞人柯受良飞跃金山岭长城”、“于顺业倒飞金山岭长城”、“环保人展览”、“午夜锐舞派对蹦迪”、“城上婚礼”、“烧烤晚宴”等大型活动在这里得以成功举行。党和国家、省、市领导多次到金山岭长城考察。众多的影视明星、歌唱家到此进行影、视、曲的拍摄......更使她蜚声海内外。
这段长城军事设施完备,构筑坚实,从金山岭至司马台是北京地区原貌保存最完好的一段,也是外国旅游者最喜欢攀登的一段长城,当地的农民说,登金山岭长城的外国人比中国人多。登此段长城的好处是:
1、此段长城基本没有经过维修,其中共24个敌楼,保持着四百年来的原貌;
2、相对安全、路程适中,从金山岭走到司马台的路程近十公里,需走4个小时左右。在金山岭和司马台都有当地的导游,可对游客提供一对一的服务,需要时拉手地保护游客的安全,因此安全系数高,对这一点陪同人员也是比较放心的,游完后一般要付给导游一定的小费(50元左右),或是从老乡手里买一本画册作为报答。(笔者曾看到一个大部分由中年妇女组成的38人英国旅游团登此段长城,全体成员都非常顺利地走完长城)。
3、不走回头路是登此段长城的另一优点,而登其它地方的长城,走得越远,回来的路最长.

The Great Wall 【By Kaiser3344】
The Great Wall of China is considered to be the only man-made project visible from the moon. Although it was once thought to have been built entirely ring the Qin Dynasty between 221 and 208 BC, it is now believed to have been started earlier.
The 15-foot-high, 25-foot-wide, 1,500-mile-long structure was undoubtedly built to keep out invading enemies. To the common people of the empire, who had been forced to build the wall, it was not worth it, however. The wall, and other public works completed by the Qin Dynasty,had caused great losses of wealth and human life in the country. As a result,an angry population rose up in rebellion against the Qin Dynasty,and in 207 BC the Han Dynasty began.
Because of its rich history and magnificent appearance,the Great Wall attracts tourists, scientists, and historians to this day and will continue to do so for generations.
【翻译】
长城
中国的长城被视为惟一能从月球上看到的人造工程。人们曾认为长城全部修建于公元前22l到208年的秦朝,但现在人们相信长城的修建要开始得更早。
修建这一高15英尺,宽20英尺,长1500英里的建筑无疑是用来抵御外敌入侵的。但对帝国中被迫修建长城的百姓而言,实在不值得。秦代建筑的长城再加上完成的其他公共工程给这个国家的财产和生命带来了巨大损失。结果,一群愤怒的人揭竿而起反对秦朝,公元前207年汉朝开始。
长城有着悠久的文化和宏伟的外观,因此直到今天还在吸引着旅游者、科学家和史学家前来参观,而且在今后许多年仍会如此。

Construction of the Great Wall started in the 7th century B.C. The vassal states under the Zhou Dynasty in the northern parts of the country each built their own walls for defence purposes. After the state of Qin unified China in 221 B.C., it joined the walls to hold off the invaders from the Xiongnu tribes in the north and extended them to more than 10,000 li or 5,000 kilometers.

The Great Wall was renovated from time to time after the Qin Dynasty. A major renovation started with the founding of the Ming Dynasty in 1368, and took 200 years to complete.

中文:八大关是最能体现青岛“红瓦绿树、碧海蓝天”特点的风景区,八大关的由来是因这一带的路名是由中国长城上的十个关隘的名字组成(由于二十年代时初建时只有八条路所以八大关的叫法一直沿用至今)。如正阳关路、山海关路等等。
八大关内树木成荫,繁花似锦,尤其是青岛的市树----雪松更是四季常青。八大关内的建筑集中了俄、英、法、德、美、日、丹麦等20多个国家建筑风格,有“万国建筑博览会”之称。风格多样的建筑使这里成为电影外景的最佳选择,如《家务清官》、《苗苗》、《13号魔窟》等40多部电影和20多部电视剧都在此拍摄,现在的很多歌星的MTV外景也选在这里,比如叶倩文、林子祥的《选择》、《重逢》就是在八大关拍的外景。
花石楼是八大关中最著名也是最有代表性的一栋别墅,据说是1932年由一位俄罗斯人在此修建,由于是用花岗岩和鹅卵石建成,故得名花石楼。花石楼的建筑风格是典型的欧洲古堡式,又融入了希腊式和罗马式的风格,也有哥特式的建筑特色。相传解放前国民党特务头子戴笠曾在此住过,也有老百姓说蒋介石也在此避过难等等,解放后,花石楼成为接待中外贵宾的馆舍,现已对外开放。
花石楼的旁边是第二海水浴场,浴场由宁武关路入口处分为东西两部分,东区更衣室前有一个凉棚,是中共中央政治局会议的旧址。1957年,毛泽东主席来青岛主持召开中央政治局会议,在第二海水浴场游泳时发现这个凉棚面向大海、环境清静而且十分宽敞,于是提议大会在这里召开,工作人员便把凉棚用竹帘围起来,在这里召开了中央政治局会议。
山海关路5号是日寇第二次占领青岛期间,在这里建的一座日本式别墅。该建筑外墙用绿色的釉面砖装饰,显得格外别致,与花石楼一样,解放后, 山海关路5号成为了中外宾客的下榻的宾馆。1957年,时任中共中央总书记的邓小平同志在青岛参加中央政治局会议时就在此下榻。
沿山海关路再向西走不远就到了山海关路9号,这里接待的宾客大都是外国的国家元首和政府领导人,因此有“青岛钓鱼台”之称。山海关路9号是一幢美式建筑,解放前是美国第七舰队司令柯克上将的官邸,室内的家具全部是美国制造,有的现在还在使用。
与青岛钓鱼台一街之隔的是元帅楼,元帅楼也是一幢日式建筑,但与青岛钓鱼台不同的却是红瓦黄墙的“青岛风格”,由于共和国的十大元帅中有五位曾在这里下榻过,故得名元帅楼。相传文革时期江青也在这里住过。另外,公主楼、宋家花园、朱德别墅、义聚合别墅等等也是十分有特色的建筑。
八大关是来青岛必看的景点之一,用时大约一上午或大半天,如果有兴趣的话可以从您的“下榻处”出发时带上午餐在八大关优美的环境里野餐一下,不过要注意保持环境卫生。吃完中饭可步行去第一海水浴场洗个海澡(第二海水浴场平时不开放),这样不仅省去了到处找饭店浪费时间,而且不会景点的饭店宰。去八大关可以乘26、31等公交车到“武胜关路”下车。
以上就是我的回答,还有中文翻译哦~

Hainan Island:
China's largest island is also its smallest province,and an equally small population gives the place a much less hectic feel.
Hainan Dao (Hainan Island) tempts with all the trappings of a tropical idyll and the central highlands,with their thick canopies of forest,offer superb - if challenging - hiking.Listen not to those who grouse about tour groups crowding their stretch of beach:there's much that's unexplored here.
Hainan's climate is far more temperate than the rest of China.Even in winter,average temperatures of 21° (69.8°F) prevail; the yearly average is 25.4°C (77.7°F).From as early as March through November,the weather becomes hot and humid.Typhoons usually descend on the island between May and October,and can cripple all transport and communication with the mainland.
Sanya Wan (Sanya Beach).This beach is well known to anyone who has handled modern Chinese currency,as it is the landscape rendered on the Two Yuan bill.There is a large rendering of a 2 Yuan bill at the entrance to the beach where many lovers go to be photographed.This beach was also the landing point for exiled officials to the island and there are two large boulders marked with characters referencing the fact that they were being sent "to where the water meets the sky."
Nan Shan (South Mountain).This is a large Shaolin Buddhist temple complex along the southernmost point of the island.There is a saying in Chinese culture - "May your life be as long as the South Mountain," and it refers to this very place.Many tours on the island are exclusively in the local dialect,called Hainanese,so you may want to enlist your own interpreter to come along with you.Located off shore from the complex is a giant statue of Buddha (being erected as of 2004) which was to be the largest in the world.Within the complex there are many temples and daily demonstrations of martial arts by the Shaolin monks.The restaurant within the
complex is all vegetarian.
