Entering the Meridian Gate, there are five marble bridges on the Inner Golden Water River, shaped like a bow. The five marble bridges just look like five arrows reporting symbolically to heaven. The five bridges were supposed to represent the five virtues preached by Confucius-benevolence, righteousness, rite, intelligence and fidelity.
Across the Inner Golden Water Bridge, we get to the Gate of Supreme Harmony. During the Ming and early Qing dynasties, here was the place where the emperor gave his audience, accepted documents from his ministers and made decisions here. There are two bronze lions guarding in front of the Gate of Supreme Harmony. The male lion was usually put on the left, playing with an embroidered design ball, which is said to show the emperor's supreme power. The other one on the right is the female lion, playing with a lion cub with its left paw symbolizing prosperity of the royal family's offsprings.

Here the emperor held grand ceremonies such as the emperor's enthronement ceremony, the wedding ceremony, dispatched generals to the battles, and the emperor received the successful candidates of the imperial examination etc. Also, the emperor held grand feasts each year on New Year's Day, Winter solstice and his own birthday.

Now, let's ascend the stairs and move on to look at articles in display on two sides of the hall. On the top layer of the terrace stands a sundial on the east an imperial grain measure on the west. The sundial is an ancient time measure or a time-measuring apparatus used in the old days. The sundial tells the time by seeing the shadow of the metal pin on the sundial, which has an inclination angle of 50 degrees with the graduation on it. The grain measure was used as the national standard measure in agriculture in the old days. Both the grain measure and the sundial were symbols of the emperor's justice and rectitude.

When you look up the building in the Forbidden City, you can see mythical animal statues on the eaves of each building.

Inside of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, you can see the gilded caisson ceiling high above the throne with a magnificent sculpture of a curling dragon playing with a huge pear was called “Xuanyuan Jing”, representing orthodox succession.
This hall is supported by 72 giant columns inside. In the old days, the traditional way of the Chinese to calculate a “room” is that: a square enclosed by four pillars was treated as one “room”, so the hall can be said to have 55 “rooms” in total. The six columns inside are gilded and painted with coiled dragon amidst clouds, and the rest are painted red.
The emperor's throne is placed on the dais in the center, and carved in cloud and dragon patterns and gilded. On both sides of the throne are a pair of elephant-shaped incense burners symbolize universal peace and two incense burners shaped as a mythical animal 9,000 kilometers per day and speaking all the languages of nearby kingdoms. Around the throne stand a pair of bronze cranes and in front of the dais is four cloisonné incense burners. The floor on the ground is paved with “Gold Bricks”, specially made in Suzhou.
The Hall of Middle Harmony is a square-shaped hall with a single pyramidic roof standing behind the Hall of Supreme Harmony. This was the place where the emperor would take a short rest before he went to the Hall of Supreme Harmony for grand ceremonies. Every year before the emperor went to the Altars and Temples, the emperor would receive and read the sacrificial address here.
Before the emperor went to the Altar of Agriculture for offering the sacrifice, the seeds intended for spring sowing and the ploughs were examined here, just to show the concern of the emperor for agriculture.
According to the rule, the imperial genealogy should be revised every ten years. The ceremony of presenting the genealogy to the emperor for revision and approval would also be held here.
Now, we come to the Hall of Preserving Harmony, the last of the three front halls.
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, on each New Year's Eve and the 15th day of the lunar moth, banquets would be held to entertain the civil and military officials and the princes and envoys of the Mongolian nobles and other nationalities. To celebrate the princess's marriage, the emperor would incite the bridegroom and his father as well as their relatives who served for the imperial government to a banquet.
The Imperial Palace Exam was held here once every three years in the Qing dynasty.
Just behind the Hall of Preserving Harmony, there is a big Marble Rampcarved with mountain cliffs, sea waves, clouds and nine dragons. It is 16.57 meters long, 3.07 meters wide and 1.7 meters thick, and weighs about 250 tons.

The sunrise of Taishan is an imaginary world, a magical world. The beauty of the sunrise is indescribable. Since ancient times, countless poets have vividly described the magnificent scenery of Taishan. In the song dynasty, the song dynasty, ”Chen deng zhifeng, the sea yellow and the melting.“ The light of the wheel is gone. Rhyme is especially peoples love, in the morning before dawn, stood RiGuanFeng, lifted up his eyes, and the east, and the morning star fadeout, faint show, a sea of clouds rolling between heaven and earth, slightly hectares, a gleam of dawn through clouds illuminated the east, then by the grey sky become yellow, then orange, purple, red and magnificent sunrise, like waves of the clouds, the sun, composed of series design of colorful, beautiful and colorful, the sun in the sun tingting nana rose from the clouds, the sun, due to the influence of the waves rolling revealing and flickering, disc gently and influenced by peaks and troughs propulsion when jumping up and down, gradually into a round shape, majestic, golden light, qunfeng do dye, the earth is bright.
When the sun was setting, the clouds were floating in the sky, and the sun was shining through the clouds. The sun is like a huge tracts, change from white to yellow, more and more big, the sky like satin brocade, until the sunset sink to the bottom of the cloud, diffused into a piece of red, the sky clouds, mountains like in combustion, day is red, the mountain is red, the cloud is red, the earth also is red. Looking up, the Yellow River is like a belt, winding zigzag from the sky, and in the sunset, the white ribbon of the Yellow River is ruddy, the light tumbling, giving the illusion of movement. ”A yellow water like a belt, through the world through the Milky Way“. The sun was slowly leaning toward the Yellow River, and the ribbons of the Yellow River were tied to the sun, dancing in the purple sky. The cloud of Taishan is capricious. After the rain, a lot of water vapor evaporation transpiration, together with the summer monsoon winds from the sea warm air, into the fog. Sometimes large clouds form a long belt around the mountainside, like a jade belt, and the mountains are clear. Sometimes the dark clouds rolled in, and there was a lot of upside down. Also sometimes baiyun tile, such as the earth spread flocculant, valley pile of snow, and clouds of white clouds, like thousands of tracts, diffuse light over chung, arrangement, like calm as the mighty ocean, and this is the famous ”yun tracts.
Bixia baoguang is another great spectacle of taishan. “Bao guang” commonly known as “Buddha”, and more appear in the azure clouds temple east, west, south gate, god azure clouds temple is located in the jade emperor peak before the bosom, the terrain is relatively dips, cloud and mist is relatively thicker and more stable, in the air behind, according to figures appear in the fog, ultraviolet in formation around the red color ring, shall unripe brightness, color ring appears red, orange, yellow, green, green, blue, violet seven color, sometimes there will be double loop, more beautiful and moving. Tourists standing in front of the fog, the shadow of the halo dancing in the air, the feeling of flying into a fairy.
Taishan in the winter, the temperature in - 20 degrees Celsius, the temperature warmed up, after that the weather is fine continental air down slightly, the southern warm air masses of fog mountain, breeze blowing, floating cloud droplets hit a tree, rock, roof, condense into ice crystals, the layer cascade folds, formed “thousand branch Joan jade”, “Wan Shuhua” the rime of wonders. Taishan has become a world of white and silver, like the palace of the dragon palace.
In the winter of Taishan, there are often cooling raindrops, falling to the ground and objects, and rapidly forming a hard, slippery and transparent ice, which is “sleet”. Every time the rain rime comes, the mountains are like ice crystal hanging upside down, the ground rocks like a bright mirror, Taishan becomes the “glass world” of ice sculpture. After the rain, the sky clear, the red sun yingfeng, the blue sky lined with xiashan, the brilliance of the shining, the golden light, the mountains, the snow, the white snow everywhere, all the white, the cool jade of the northern scenery.
Taishan district unique natural environment and long history culture breeding has produced various li shan xiushui and cultural attractions, vividly recorded the historical development of our Chinese nation civilization chapter. Modern archaeological research has revealed that there was already a trace of human activity around Taishan during the paleolithic period, 50, 000 years ago. A lot of historical records also recorded that taishan area has shown the dawn of civilization early in the matriarchal clan society stage. In the neolithic age of 5,000 years ago, the culture of dawenkou culture and the longshan culture in the northern foothill affected not only shandong, but also the vast areas of the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River. During the spring and autumn period and the warring states period, the “state of qilu” was one of the most politically, economically and culturally advanced regions in the history of China, which produced famous historical and cultural figures such as Confucius and mencius. History tells us that taishan mountain has been an important birthplace of Oriental culture since ancient times, and taishan has become the first famous mountain in China since the pre-qin period.
Taishan is not very high in actual altitude, and is inferior to hengshan and huashan in the five mountains, and only occupies the third place. Compared with many mountains in the country, it cant be looked at. But why did it become a famous “five yue” and “wuyue duzong” in ancient times? Its about the geography of Taishan and the primitive religion.
Taishan rise in the east of north China plain, over plains of qilu, wide sea in the east, the west has a long history of the Yellow River, the south has graduated, see, the water of huai, plains, hills and relative elevation 1300 meters, form sharp contrast, thus stands tall on the vision; The sense of playing and “the small mountain of a glance”. The mountains stretch over 100 kilometers and lie 426 square kilometers. Its foundation is wide and stable, its form is large and concentrated, and it has a great sense of feeling. The so-called “steady mountain” and “heavy” is the reflection of its natural characteristics in peoples physiology and psychology.
From ancient times to this day, people have always regarded Taishan as a tall, beautiful, noble, and firm image, with warm praise. In the second century b.c., sima qian wrote in his book : “man is mortal, or is heavier than Taishan, or lighter than the feather.” Chairman MAO once quoted sima qians words to teach people that “to die for the benefit of the people is heavier than Taishan”. This practice, which is closely related to the meaning and outlook of life, played a big role in the people of education.
Six dynasties as the < < above different record >>, qin and han dynasties, the folk legend of pangus (ancient beginning, all things of god) death come to dongyue, left arm of nanyue, right arm as beiyue, sufficient for the west. The head of pangus corpse turned to the east, and it became the east yue, and Taishan became the first of the five mountains. This is obviously based on the myth of >, and the historical background of Taishans monism.
The east is the place where the sun rises, and the ancients regarded it as the place where everything alternates and the early spring takes place. Therefore, the east became the source of life, the symbol of hope and auspiciousness. And ancient ancestors and majestic peculiar dongyue often regarded as gods, the gods as object to worship, pray for the good so, Taishan is located in the east - the borne to pull a behemoth has become “by” everything is “auspicious mountain”, “home of the gods”. The emperor, by destiny, saw Taishan as a symbol of national unity and power. In order to thank god for the grace of the emperor, he will also go to Taishan to worship god. During the shang and zhou dynasties, king of shang dynasty built dongdu at the foot of Taishan, and zhou tianzi built qilu with Taishan. Legend in the qin and han dynasties ago, 72 to the Kings of the taishan god, after emperor qin, qin ii, the emperor, han GuangWuDi its chapter, han emperor, han, sui wendi, the emperor, wu zetian, tang dynasty, tang emperor song zhenzong, the qing emperor kangxi and qianlong heels the ancient emperors to taishan I send offerings, sharpening JiGong. Emperors used taishan to consolidate their reign, so that the sacred status of taishan was carried to the point of no return.
With the worship of emperors in the past dynasties, Taishan became an important place for various religious activities. In the early period of the warring states period, huangboyang was built in the mountains, and later generations of famous Taoist celebrities have been preaching and constructing temples in tai shan. Buddhism began in the eastern jin dynasty, and was also developed in tai shan.
Taishan attracts a large number of cultural celebrities, and the poets of the past dynasties come in great Numbers. They are a great success in reading and writing, leaving a rich cultural heritage. Confucius, guanzhong, sima qian, zhang heng, zhuge liang, liu yuxis, li bai, du fu, and su dongpo, ouyang xiu, fan zhongyan, wang shizhen, yao nai, guo moruo scrawled JiShu, left a vast adais poems, the visitors from the mountain god worship to sightseeing, the new direction of aesthetic knowledge. From the foot of the mountain, to the top of Taishan, there are more than 1,000 stone carvings, from the qin to qing dynasties. The color, style meaning every generation is different, its scale, work, time of continuity, genre and style, exquisite art, construct the clever are world famous mountains of unparalleled scene. The high feeling of the ancient Chinese and the magnificent and magnificent Taishan are integrated together, fully reflecting the spirit of the Chinese nations unremitting self-improvement.
In taishan in thousands of years of civilization, the working people have created a series of brilliant cultural landscape and the combination of tall, magnificent natural landscape, formed the image of a noble Taishan, Taishan constitute the unique scenery landscape. The layout and creation of the cultural landscape are designed according to the natural landscape, especially the characteristics of the terrain and the needs of the zen, sightseeing and viewing activities. The most representative is the emperors mantra, the peoples pilgrimage route. Its main body is to pull tongtian natural landscape, the theme is sealing day zen thought content, the layout form is focused on the artemisia in the land of the mountain, the emperors yi dai to seal day the jade emperor peak form as long as more than 10 kilometers of hell - a triple space axis - heaven on earth. That is, the river nye bridge in southwest of the city to the mountain of Artemis (at the southeast side of tai an railway station) as “the land of the dead”; Tai an district is the world; Since the north of the city, the “tianfu” has been “tianfu”, which has been up 666.
The taian city is a result of the ancient emperors fete, the peoples pilgrimage to the mountains and the sightseeing and development. s dai temple are undoubtedly visitors choice of Thai city on the central axis of the main body, the central axis from south of the city gate, extends to the temple, and then into the mountain bends and leads to the “heaven”, make not only mountains and cities, on the function and form in architectural space sequence. The sequence of its sequence according to the process of mountain sacrifice is carried out, which runs through a process of “peoples environment” to “fairyland”. From the topography, it is from the gentle slope, the slope until the steep slope, the people from low to high, rising, and finally like the landing of the heaven; From the scale of the building, it is the imperial palace of the world to reach the sky, into the fairyland; From the tone, the red wall huangwa has always contrasted with the pines. Through three mile a flagpole, five miles a memorial arch, a door, two doors (zhongtian gate), three doors (worse), triple rhythm, constituted a day, step by step the spectacular sequence.
The most outstanding characteristic of taishan ancient architecture is the use of the geographical environment, which is to strengthen and beautify the natural environment by artificial force. Firstly, in the selection of the sequence space position of the fete sacrificial activities, taking full advantage of the south slope of Taishanshan is gradually precipitating, resulting in the artistic conception of “ladder”. This way along the stream, the person in the valley, is the “closed type” natural landscape, the lower segment is tightly contractive, until the daiding is open. The foreplay is long and the contrast is very strong, for the activity of “worship day”, the psychological state that causes the environmental inducement, if the step by step, the cliffhanger. The door of the south heaven suddenly opened up, like a fairy. Therefore, such a geographical environment is the masterpiece of the religious sacrificial space sequence. Second, the location choice of single or group under construction and the creation of structures, have built across the way portal construction, have a climbing turn with the guidance of building, facing the creek and reward JingJianZhu, mid-levels suspension religious buildings, there are towering mountain of buildings, etc. Thirdly, from the construction of the structure, materials, decoration and garden space as the basic unit of group composition, are able to meet the requirements of terrain environment variable, this pavilion pavilion of building construction, set the cabinet of a cabinet; Should open wide area namely the modelling is light, need to shrink the space place is solid massiness, fully reflect because of the scene and set, because of the environment and the building thought that is born.
Taishan main preserved ancient architecture is the style of the Ming and qing dynasties, it is not only the value of building the painting, sculpture, rocks, trees, become the example of ancient Chinese culture, preserve a huge I sacrifice sequence and a three-dimensional painting recorded history, but also left for us to keep up with the architecture model of natural by its unique artistic image to coordinate and strengthen the natural beauty, to performance and deepen the natural environment. Because of them, to make the natural landscape and human landscape set each other off of the Taishan is unripe brightness, make strict excessively day to taishan go deep into the heart of hundreds of millions of Chinese people, and famous in the world, become a whole a kind of precious heritage.
Climb Taishan, three roads from ancient times. It was destroyed in the original east road, the original road naturally became now east road, visitors at taian station after the train, can swim first dai temple, and then from dai temple back door to the temple, walking through zhongtian gate to the worse, or walking to transfer to the cable car to the worse after zhongtian gate, along the Yin again by the azure clouds temple on Taishan is the utmost. If walk road (the original west road), from taian station to get off, can take tour bus along the mountains roads by ying tan, zhulin temple direct zhongtian gate, then to tianmen take the cable car or walk to the worse, until the Yin DaiDing again. If you go west, you will need to take a tour bus from tai an railway station to the intersection of tai an and jinan.

Shennongjia Scenic Area
The Shennongjia district in remote northwestern Hubei has the wildest scenery in the province. With heavily forested mountains of fir, pine and hemlock -including something rare in China, old-growth stands -the area is known as a treasure trove of more than 1300 species of medicinal plants. Indeed, the name for the area roughly translates as Shennongs Ladder to commemorate a legendary emperor, Shennong, believed to be the founder of herbal medicine and agriculture. According to the legend, he heard about some special plants growing up high on a precipice, so he cut down a great tree and used it to climb to the site and reach the plants, which he added to his medical collection.
As part of a more modern legend, Shennongjia is also famous for the sightings of wild, ape-like creatures - a Chinese equivalent of the Himalayan Yeti or the North American Bigfoot. The stories are interesting, but the creatures seem to be able to distinguish between peasants and scientists -molesting the former and evading the latter. Nevertheless, there is a small base station set up in the reserve with displays of evidence of sightings. More real, but just as elusive perhaps, are species of leopard, bear, wild boar and monkey (including the endangered Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey) that reportedly inhabit the area.
Foreigners are only allowed into the area of the Shennongjia district near the town of Muyuping, 200km northwest of Yichang. There are two high peaks in the area, Shennongjiashan at 3105m and Laojunshan at 2936m. Its a 10-hour bus ride to Muyuping from Yichang, or you can take a boat to Xiangxi (five hours) on the Three Gorges and from there its a 90km ride to Muyuping. From Muyuping you will have to hire a car to get into the reserve.
Banbiyan
Banbiyan, 5 kilometres from Liaowang Tower, is famous for its stone forest and for sightings of the so-called wild man, the Chinese Yeti. The bamboo that covers the mountain and plain makes a great hiding place for anyone wanting to hang out with Bigfoot.
At nearly 2,600 metres, the grassy meadows of Banbiyan frequently play host to a colorful festival of song and dance by the locals. Custom dictates that visitors are welcomed by song. Not quite The Sound of Music, but the spectacle is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for many.
Shennongding
The pyramid-sharp Shennong Peak covers an area of about 2 square kilometres, rising from the centre to China to a height of 3105 metres above sea level. Clouds often nestle at the summit where ridges stretch on into the distance. The area is covered by tiers of fir, bamboo and azalea. The firs, as tall as 40 metres, have dense leaves on branches that block off the sunlight. The azaleas blossom pink and violet in summer. The area is also home to some rare animals including the golden monkey, white bear and antelope.
Yanzidong
Halfway up a hill just east of Yanziya lies Yanzidong, a cave famous for its golden swallows. A short 50 metre climb up from the road leads to the entrance - the cave itself heads backwards into the mountain for more than 3 kilometres. One of the few swallows that doesnt migrate seasonally, the golden swallow inhabits the cave all year round.
Standing inside the entrance, you will breathe in the damp air and watch steam rising from the walls, which gleam like glass. Above hang the birds nests, warm and dry.
Outside the cave you can watch the swallows dancing in the air, and diving in and out of their dark home.

Today well visit the famous sacred place of Taoism--Wudang Mountain. Now I would like to outline the general situation of this mountain. It is not only one of the first batch national level scenic spots of China but also the heritage of the world.
Wudang Mountain, also known as Taihe Mountain, is located in Danjiangkou City, northwest of Hubei Province. In the late period of the Easten Han Dynasty, Taoism was born and Wudang Mountain was respected as the immortal mountain of Taoism .
Besides the refined and elegant natural sceneries , the ancient architectures are grand and magnificent . The ancient complex of Mt. Wudang, inherited down since the Ming dynasty, is revered for its typical royal style, as proved by the saying of “ constructing the Forbidden City in the north and redecorating Wudang in the south”。 In 1994, the ancient architectural complex of Mt. Wudang was listed in the Catalogue of the World Cultural Heritage. The complex consists of palaces and temples forming the nucleus of secular and religious building exemplifying the architectures in Wudang Mountain can date back into the Tang Dynasty, and was expanded in later dynasties, and reached its climax in the Ming Dynasty. The whole complex adopted royal architecture style, utilizing fully the natures, showing exotic layout.
Now weve reached our destination--Wudang Mountain. lets get on the traveling bus. A few minutes later, we will reach our first station-the needle-rubbing well.
The buildings of the Needle-rubbing Well were located at a high point. According to Wudang Taoism, it was this exact point that receives the first beam of pure positive sunshine when the sun rises every day, so it is also called Pure Sunshine Palace. Now we are in the Taizipo zone. The building in front of us is the Needle-rubbing Well. Lets get off the bus. The Needle-rubbing Well is a typically exquisite building in Wudang Mountain, whose overall arrangement is supremely ordered and beautiful, and tells about the story of Zhenwus cultivation.
It is said that Zhenwu, Crown Price of Jingle Country, went to Wudang Mountain to cultivate himself at the age of 15.After self-cultivation in the deep forest for several decades but achieved nothing, he was totally depressed and decided to revert to the secular world; however when he came here and met the God of Ziqi, in the form of an old woman, rubbing a ferrous pestle to get a needle, which made him realize that “Perseverance will prevail” so he came back to the deep forest to continue his self-cultivation and finally he became a god.
Entering the gate, you will see a group of smart and exquisite buildings, without symmetrical arrangement, but with a unique style and layout, which allow you to easily distinguish the primary and secondary ones.
Lets get on the bus and go to our next station----Purple Cloud Palce. Before my description of this scenic spot, you can draw a picture of the palace in your mind with imagination. On the way we can enjoy sweet-scented osmanthuss fragrance in autumn.
The nucleus construction of Purple Cloud Palace, The Grand Hall is the only left double-eaved, lean-to-hill, wooden building. As one of the quite rare building of uplift wooden crossbeam construction in the history of the Taoist architecture, the Grand Hall is scientific and rational in structure and overall arrangement, harmonious and coherent in artistic style, united with surroundings as a whole, and unique in taste and features among the buildins in Wudang Mountain. Meanwhile, the Grand Hall, having absorbed the techniques of various times artisans, demonstrated great achievements of architectures in Ming and Qing Dynasties, therefore, worthy of visiting and researching.
The palace is in front of us. Compared with your imagination, what do you think of the palace? Dazing and full of praise from travelers the inner part of the Grand Hall is. Lets enter the hall. Carefully painted and well carved, the Hall is magnificent in vigour , crafty on idea, smooth and natural with sculpting, unsophisticated and gracious by decoration, solemn and exquisite over displaying. In the hall, five shrines are set there. Around the tabernacles hundreds of rare antiques are ablated. Most of the precious antiques, dynamic, vivid, and wonderful to see, were the images of Gods by clay sculpture and wares for worshipping during the Yuan, Ming, Qing Dynasties.
In the middle of the Shrine is ablated the image of Zhenwu. With a height of 4.8meters, the image is the biggest clay sculpture. Another divine image made by paper and covered with pseudo golden leaves is the best preserved and most ancient paper image which comprehensively displays the marrow on craftwork of paper pasting, sculpting, gilding, colored drawing, antisepticising, and has great value in researching ancient paper pasting.
The fastigium of the Grand Hall consists of six flying colored glaze dragons. An Aquarius is surrounded by the dragons that are painted in three different colors. Due to the heaviness and highness, the Aquarius has to be drawn by four iron chains. Each end of the chain is attached to the hand of a divine kid, it is said that the four kids of deity has stuck to their positions in order to keep the Aquarius steady no matter it is chilly, scorching, rainy, windy or thundering. Because their spacial positions are even higher than the superior God, the four kids are also called Super Gods. While the plain people address them wretched kiddies.
After the rebuilding in 1412 A.D., the Grand Hall had been repaired about ten times in different times. Therefore, it can maintain its basic features. In 1994, the experts on world relics from UN inspected Wudang Mountain and said, “Here, we witness the sample of traditional remedial means to the ancient buildings”.
We are leaving for the Golden Summit,which is regarded as the symbol of the Wudang mountain .We will go there by tram rail.

Tibet lies on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of the southwest border of China. The average height of the whole region is more than 4,000 meters above sea level, for which Tibet is known as ”Roof of the World“. The highest peak of Tibet, also the highest in Himalayas and in the whole world, is Everest Peak, which is as high as 8,846.27 meters above sea level.
Although a part of China, Tibet has a unique culture of all there own. It is mainly inhabited by Tibetans, a minority nationality of old and mysterious people. Tourist attractions include the Potala Palace in Lhasa, Jokhang Temple, and a number of Buddhist sacred places.
Tibet (Xi Zang in Chinese) is to the south of Xin Jiang Uygur Autonomous Region and Qing Hai Province, to the west of Sichuan, to the northwest of Yunnan and to the north of India and Nepal. Its population of 2.3 million people come from a variety of ethnic groups including Tibetan, Han, Monba and Lhota. Its capital city is Lhasa.
Northwest Tibet, mainly Qing Hai plateau, is home to a variety of unusual and unique animals. Across the northern expanse of Tibet, you can see vast grasslands where horses, yak and sheep roam freely. The world’s lowest valley, the Grand Yarlun-tzanpo River Valley lies in east Tibet.
Nearly all Tibetans follow Tibetan Buddhism, known as Lamaism, with the exception of approximately 2,000 followers of Islam and 600 of Catholicism. Tibetan Buddhism was greatly influenced by Indian Buddhism in its early time, but after years of evolution, Tibetan Buddhism has developed its own distinctive qualities and practices. A well-known example is the belief that there is a Living Buddha, who is the reincarnation of the first, a belief alien to Chinese Buddhism.
It is freezing cold in most time of the year. Most tourists come to visit Tibet only in the warmest seasons, June, July, August and early September.

As the saying goes, ”less than the Great Wall is not a good man“, climbing the Great Wall must have perseverance and unyielding perseverance and determination, and can not give up halfway. We can watch and climb on the other side. Let me first introduce the Great Wall to you: the Great Wall is made up of Guan Cheng, enemy building, smoke pier, Beacon Tower, enemy platform, wall platform, woo wall, stack, hole, perforation, etc. The Beacon Tower and the mound are used to deliver the enemy. During the day, smoked on smoked pits, and the number of smoke piles represents the number of enemy soldiers. I can't see the smoke at night and make a fire on the Beacon Tower. This way of transmitting information was the fastest and most effective in that era, and Beacon Tower played a very important role. At this time, I saw a child climbing on the wall. I held him down and said to everyone, ”please be careful not to climb on the wall. It is very dangerous. Outside the wall is a dangerous mountain. Falling down is not fun! “ Now, let me tell you more about the story of the Great Wall: Once upon a time, there was a man named Meng Jiangnu who went to dress for her husband who repaired the Great Wall. She went to the Great Wall, but she didn't find her husband. She quickly asked others that he had been buried in the Great Wall. She cried and cried for many years. Finally, she cried down the Great Wall and finally saw her husband. The Great Wall is beautiful, magnificent, winding, and you are welcome to visit it.

Good morning! Lidies and gentlemen. I am very glad to be your local guide of this travel for HS Mountain. on behalf of our travel agency ,we hope that all of you well feel as good as today’s sunshine ,and enjoy yourselves.
Now we have arrived in the Mount Huang. Firstly I had better introduce the HS to you .
HS Mountain, is located in the south of An hui Province, It is one part of the Chinese Nan ling sierra. Entire mountain area is approximately 1,200 square kilometers. HS Mountain was called Yi Mountain before Tang Dynasty. Can you guess the meaning of Yi? It means “black ”.Because there are too many black rocks on the mountain.So the ancient people gave it such name. Chinese emperor Huangdi came here for gathering herbs and refining elixir. And he took a bath in the hot spring. Thus he became a immortal. Tang Dynasty Emperor LiLongji extremely believed in the legend. So he renamed the mountain HS . The meaning is that this mountain is Emperor Huangdi’s mountain. From then on, HS Mountain this name has been used till today.
HS Mountain is certainly beautiful. It may be said that it is the wonderful mountain. Having a look with our own eyes is truly a big happy event in our life. Who know the four uniques of HS mountain ? Let me introduce them to you.
The first is strangely-shaped pines. Why are the pines strange? Because HS pines grow up from hard granite instead of rich soil. After thousands of years, their root deeply strike into rock seam. They are not afraid of drought and storm.
The second is grotesque rock. There are so many grotesque rocks all over HS mountain. Some of them are like man’s appearance. Some are like objects’shapes. And also some are endowed with myths and history stories.In 121 famous grotesque rocks, some of the well-known are“ flying stone” “fairy playing chess” “magpie on plum” “monkey viewing sea”. They are all magical and lifelike.
The third is the seas of clouds. The Qing Dynasty emperor Kangxi had once written a plaque for HS . There are four words“Huang Hai Tian Du”on it. Every time after the rain and snow, HS will appear spectacular changeable seas of clouds. HS set off by the seas of clouds and becomes colorful,just like human fairyland. According to the position,the seas of clouds are divided into east sea,south sea,west sea ,north sea and sky sea.And on the lotus peak,Tiandu peak,Bright top,you can overlook the vast seas ofclouds,and enjoy “To the end of the sea,sky is the shore;Up to the mountain,I am the peak”.
What’s the last one? Who can guess? Yeah, it’s hot spring. Water from the springs is odorless. It contains minerals which are beneficial to treat many diseases .Hot springs flow from the foot of Purple Cloud Peak.
The temperature of hot springs keeps in 42 degrees or so.
Now we are entering Yu ping scenic spot. Look, this is the Tiandu peak. It is one of the 3 main peaks of HS mountain and also the steepest. It is 1810 meters above sea level. In ancient times it was called “Quan Xian Suo Du”, meaning“ heaven city”. This peak is steep and straight and has the magnificent momentum. Can you feel it? In the HS Mountain peaks, it is the most spectacular. The Lotus peak, Bright Top and Tiandu peak are known as 3 peaks of HS.
My friends, our journey will come to an end at once, I also have to say goodbye to you. We have been friends already and had a wonderful time. Wish you all happiness more and more. If there is a chance, hope you come to China again. And we will welcome you forever!
Ladies and gentleman:
I am very pleased to serve as your tour guide. Today we are going to visit the ancient town of Lijiang------before we get there, I?d like to give you a brief introduction to it.
Located in northwest of YN province, Lijiang is about 580 kilometers away from KM with an average elevation of 2400 meters. The population of Lijiang is about 1.12 million. Among which the population of Naxi the main nationality here, is 260000.so how about the surroundings of Lijiang.
Located in the north of Lijiang town, the Yulong snow mountains is the
southernmost modern marine glaciers in the temperate zone of the north hemisphere. the other famous scenic spots around Lijiang are--- the Laojunshan mountain, Lugu lake and the Tiger Leaping Gorge which are also very famous and attracted many tourists. The famous characteristics of Naxi culture are the 3 living fossils, they are----the character fossil. Created in Tang Dynasty, the Dongba character was regarded as the only existing hieroglyph; and the music fossil, the Naxi ancient music, later we will fully appreciate the beauty and mystery of the music, I will give you more details; and the third fossil is the human society fossil, the Mosuo matriarchal family.Most Mosuo people living near the Lugu lake still practice their ?walking marriage? custom. At night the man comes to the woman?s house and return to his house in the morning, so they live separately. Women manage the households and yield works, play a more important role than men in family life.
Now we have come to the ancient town of Lijiang, which enjoys the fame ?eastern Venice?. And it has another name-Dayan town, which literally means –a great ink slab, with Lion Mountain in the west and Elephant Mountain in the north, the ancient town is surrounded by green hills, so it looks like a jade ink slab. The town was first built in song dynasty and has a long history of 800 years. In 1997 it was listed in the world culture heritage.
Now we are arriving at the entrance to the town, as you can see, there is a big carved wall in front of us, from the figures on the surface of the wall, you can see a character who has similar image to a monk, but in Naxi culture he is a Dongba whose function is like a priest in Christianity, he plays a very important role in Naxi people?s life. Especially for faith.
Going ahead we will see a white screen with an inscription by former leader Jiang zeming on May 2 1997 meaning –the world?s cultural heritage: the ancient town of the Lijiang.
Now you can see the old town has no walls, it was said that the hereditary ruler of Lijiang used to be surnamed Mu but If this character Mu was surrounded with a frame or a wall, it would become an another Chinese character ---Kun, which means siege or predicament. So there is no stone wall surrounded, very different from other old town in china right?
Ok let?s pay attention to the two waterwheels, which are said to be lover waterwheels or mother and son waterwheels, but no matter what they stand for, they have the same meaning---they will nestle to each other for ever.
Follow me, Let?s walk up to the Yulong bridge, the spring from the Yulong snow mountain is divided into 3 branches and sub-branches to flow into the old town. So let me give you a tip, because there are so many streets and lanes in the town, it is like a maze. if you are lost , you can easily find the entrance to the ancient town by walking up any of the streams.
So everyone is here? Let?s go into the old town. The road under our feet is parallel to the streams which can wash the road when blocked up, so the streets are neither muddy in the rainy season nor dusty in the dry season. The town depends on water for existence, so there are so many streams that more than 350 wooden or stone bridges in the town were built. And the most famous bridges are the Baisui Bridge and Dashi Bridge which also called Men Bridge.
Through the Dashi Bridge, now we have come to the Sifang Street, which means Square Street. Because it looks like a Chinese seal meaning ruling everywhere, it is the center of the ancient town. The square street is surrounded by five main streets; they are Xinhua Wuyi Qiyi Guangyi Xinyi leading in all directions.
In ancient times ,it had been an important marketing center on the ancient Tea-Horse Road. The trade history was more than 300 years. But now many handicraft shops, tea houses and restaurants make it a sea of the visitors. In every Saturdays evening. The Naxi people usually gather and dance here, unfortunately today is Monday we can?t catch that fantastic night. And around the square there are many protected Naxi traditional building, the typical styles are “three houses and one screen wall” and “four houses and five courtyards. This building is called Kegong Archway, it was built 100 years ago to honor the 3 brothers passed the provincial official enrolling exams. The original building was 2 storied, but it was destroyed by fire and rebuilt as 3-story on the former site
Now the Naxi boys and girls are coming, you can see the Naxi men have the same clothes as Han people, on the contrary, most Naxi women wear blue blouses and trousers, covered by blue or black aprons. The T-shaped traditional ape On the back symbolizes the heavens, the seven embroidered circles symbolize the Dipper. 2 larger circles, one on each shoulder, symbolize sun and moon, which mean they work day and night, so it is very lucky to marry a Naxi woman, (bachelors should not miss this opportunity.)
Now we are enjoying the Naxi ancient music, it was praised by the contemporary as the “living fossil of music “it is composed of “Baisha Fine music” “dongjing music” and ”huangjing music” and all the performers are Naxi minority. There are usually 24 players in the group, some of them are aged. They use the original instruments, which are not seen in other parts of the world. There are more than 5 theaters for this Chinese classic music. But all of them are quite atmospheric, with wooden stages for the musicians and wood chairs and benches for the audiences, sitting here, listening to the Naxi music; you will be lost in this china?s Shangri-la.
Now our visit to Lijiang is drawing to a close, I am afraid everyone must be hungry. Now we will go back to the hotel and have supper. At night we will join the campfire with Naxi people. Let?s go!!!!
Guangdong Province, bordering on the South China Sea, is located in the southernmost of China’s mainland. It adjoins Fujian Province on the east, Jiangxi and Hunan provinces on the north and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on the west, with Hong Kong and Macou lying to its south respectively on the east and west banks of the Pearl River estury. It covers an area of about 180,000 square kilometers of land and 420,000 square kilometers of sea with a total population of 94,500,000.
Located on the subtropical zone, Guangdong enjoys a mild climate and a rich rainfall, with an average annual temperate of 22.3℃ centigrade and a rainfall of 1,700 mm.
With Guangzhou as its capital, Guangdong Province now has jurisdiction over 21 prefecture-level cities, among which Shenzhen, Zhuhai and Shantou are the three earliest
Economic Special Zones opened to the outside world. Four prefectural cities-Chaozhou, Meizhou, Foshan and Zhaoqin-enjoy a reputation of “National Historical and Cultural City”.Moreover, there are still 19 cities or counties that have been awarded with the honorable title of “National Excellent Tourism City”.
During the Pre-Qin period, Guangdong area was inhabited by the NanYue ethnic people. Qin unified South China in 219 A.D. and set up Guilin, Xiangjun and Nanhai prefectures. Today’s Guangzhou is where the Nanhai Prefecture was located.
At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasy, a former Qin commanding general, Zhao Tuo by name, founded the first local state in the presentday Guangdong area, the Kingdom of Nanyue, thus promoting the fusion between the Han and the Yue ethnics and accelerating the social, economic and cultural progress in South China. Under the Wu Kingdom of the Three Kingdoms period, the region to the north of Hepu was named Guangzhou, which ruled the Nanhai, Changwu and Yulin prefectures. Hence, the name of “Guangzhou” came into being. At that time, China’s foreign trade channel starting from Panyu was established, which is the origin of the Maritime Silk Road.
In Ming Dynasty, Guangdong became one of the 13 provinces. The early Qing Dynasty inherited Ming’s system and set up Guangdong Province. The name of “Guangdong” was officially adopted. The government of Qing established Guangdong Customs in Guangzhou, which is the first official establishment of customs in the history of our country. The late Qing Dynasty witnessed the birth of national capitalism and national industry, and the “Westernization Movement” in which the Chinese people learned from the West in search of a road of wealth and power. With Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao as the leading exponents, the Bourgeois reformists wrote books to disseminate their ideas and popularize their reformist thoughts, which were
gradually developed into a political practice, and eventually led to a capitalist reform movement. Guangdong is also the original place of China’s modern revolution. Sun Yat-sen from Xiangshan county led and founded the first bourgeois political party in China: the Tong Meng
Hui(Revolutionary League). He led the Huanghua Gang Uprising, the Law-Protecting Movement and also successfully achieved the First Cooperation of the Communist Party and the Kuomintang. Sun Yat-sen was honored as “the Forerunner of Democratic Revolution” and “Father of the Republic of China”.
Since the 1980s, Guangdong, a place propitious for giving birth to great men, was the first province to open to the outside world and quickly became one of the most economically
developed regions in China, with an average per capita GDP exceeding 4000 US dollars. People’s living standard for the time reached the comparatively well-off level. Guangzhou Trade Fairs, established in 1957 and held in every April and October, is known as the “NO.1 Exhibition of China”.
The Pearl River Delta today has attained fruitful attainments. It has entered a new era of vigorous development.
In the long process of historical development, the unique Lingnan(the area covering Guangdong and Guangxi) culture has formed after the exchange, clash, and fusion of various cultures. In Guangdong Province, there exist three groups of people: Guangfu, Chao-shan, Kakka, which are corresponding to Guangfu culture, Chao-shan culture and Kakka culture respectively. The Guangfu group appeared the earliest, which lives in the Pearl River Delta and some other counties and cities in the middle and west part of Guangdong Province. The Kakka group can best reflect the fusion and transformation between Lingnan culture and Central Plain culture. It is distributed mainly over Meizhou region. The Kakkas have inherited the fine tradition from the Central Plain culture, such as practicing frugality, self-esteem and self-reliance, showing respect to teachers and attaching great importance to education. The Chao-shan group mainly lives in Chaozhou and Shantou. Chao-shan people are adventurous, innovative and ingenious. The significant feature distinguishing the three groups is their different dialects, that is, the
“Baihua”(the plain language) based on Guangzhou dialect, the Kakka language based on Meizhou dialect and the Chao-shan language based on Shantou local dialect. The minorities of Guangdong are distributed mainly in places like Liannan and Ruyuan districts. Local customs such as the Getang (the Singing Meet) and the Wooden Handle Lion of Yao nationality, the Eighth of April Festival and the Ox King Birthday Celebration of Zhuang nationality, as well as the Third of March Festival and the Second of February Festival of She nationality are of unique flavor. As a vehicle of Lingnan culture, the architectures in Guangdong are also distinctive. Folk buildings unique to the region all present distinct Lingnan characteristics, for example, the Xiguan big house and the arcaded building, the Hakka circular houses; buildings of social institutions, such as the Temple of South China Sea God, Foshan Ancestral Temple, the Chen Family Temple and the Panyu Academy; buildings of world cultural heritage such as the Kaiping watchtowers, and buildings for city defense such as the Xinhui Yanmen artillery fort and the Guangzhou Zhenhai Tower. The Lingnan garden, represented by Qinghui Garden, Ke Garden and
Yuyinshanfang Garden, together with Northern Garden and Suzhou Garden, are reputed as the “three major landscape gardens in China.”
The folk culture of Guangdong has strong regional features. The Cantonese Opera, Chao Opera and Opera are locally popular. The Lingnan art of potted landscape and bonsai is numbered as one of the five major styles in the country. Folk dance, dragon dance, lion dance and dragon boating all display special Lingnan flavors. Guangdong Embroidery, together with Suzhou Embroidery, Hunan Embroidery and Sichuan Embroidery, is known as one of the four famous embroideries in China. Guangdong ceramics, consisting of Guangzhou decorative porcelain, Shiwan pottery and Fengxi earthenware, had found a market overseas as early as the Tang
Dynasty. The delicate and exquisite Guangdong carving, including ivory carving, jade carving and wood carving, attains to unrivalled workmanship. Special crafts of Guangdong, such as Duan Ink-stone in Zhaoqing, paper-cut and lion-head making in Foshan, palm-leaf handicraft in Xinhui and lacquerware in Yangjiang, boast a long history and extremely high craftsmanship.
Guangzhou cuisine is one of the four major cuisines in China. As a Chinese saying goes, “to enjoy the best that life has to offer, one has to eat in Guangdong”. Guangdong cuisine consists of Guangzhou, Chaozhou and Dongjiang dishes. Guangzhou dishes are characterized by being light, fresh, tender, tasty and crisp. They are particular about color, aroma, taste and appearance. Chaozhou dishes excel in sea food, and especially in soup. Dongjiang dishes, also known as
Hakka dishes, using much meats for preparation, tend to be greasy and slightly salty. Of them, the most special is the earthenware pot casserole. Apart from the four major dishes, the great variety of local delicacies also enjoys great fame all over China.
The natural tourism resources of Guangdong are also varied and many. Among them, there is Mount Danxia, named World Geology Park by UNESCO; Yangchun Lingxiao Cave and
Zhaoqing Seven-star Crags, known for their karst landform; Ten-mile Silver Beach on Hailing Island in Yangjiang that has entered the Guinness Record for its expanse; Nansha
Newly-reclaimed Wetland Park in Guangzhou, a large-scale wetland reserve for mangrove;
Conghua Hotspring, Enping Hotspring and Zhuhai Imperial Hotspring, all effective in stimulating blood circulation and relaxing muscles and joints, providing skin care and keeping fit; Seven-star Crags and Mount Dinghu, listed in the first national places of interest; famous waterfalls such as Panlong Gorge Waterfall in Deqing, Baishuizhai Waterfall in Zeng Cheng, Mawei Waterfall at Mount Daxia; other special scenic spots such as the Small Three Gorges of Xijiang River, the Huangteng Gorge Drifting in Qingyuan, the underground river in Lianzhou, the Juren Village at Xiema, and Lingnan Water Country at Minzhong; and a large number of forest parks including Liuxi River Forest Part, Mount Xiqiao Forest Park Nanling National Forest Park, Nankunshan Forest Park, and Shimen Forest Bathing Place…
Guangdong is a major tourism province in China. In 2008, its tourism income witnessed a total of 246.1 billion RMB yuan, accounting roughly for one fourth of the general national tourism income. Over a hundred million inbound tourists visited the province in this year. With 9.1 billion US dollars of foreign exchange earnings from tourism, the province ranked first in the whole country. According to the data up to the end of 2008, there are over 6,900 tourist restaurants, 410,000 guest rooms, and 770,000 beds in the whole province. Guangdong is currently making great strides in building a strong tourism province.

Welcome to Yunnan, Welcome to Tengchong! It’s my honor to be your guide. Today we are going to visit the volcanoes and hot springs in Tengchong, which are the most famous here.
As we will get there in a few minutes, first allow me to give you a brief intoduction of Tengchong. Tengchong is located in the southwest of China and occupies an area of 5800 square kilometers. There are 23 nationalities here, such as 汉、傣、回、白 nationalities and so on. When we mentioned Tengchong, three things will come into mind, which are: the volcanoes and hot springs having 10,000 years, the border city having 1,000 years and the fair of jade having 100 years.
Later we will get to the volcanoes and the hot spring, so now I can tell you something about the latter two ones. They all can reflect the long history Tengchong has. Tengchong is a city on boarder. And because of its location, it has been an important place for military reasons. And that’s a part of its history. It’s also regarded as the county of manners, and it is the hometown of so many famous people. And another part of its history is that Tengchong is one trade center of jade between China and Burma. So don’t forget to get a round to the jade fair. I think you will feel interested.
OK, everyone, here is the Library of the Volcanoes. Now let’s have a look at .The volcanoes in Tengchong are famous in China, and it’s one of the four groups of volcanoes in China. The strong extravasations are the cause of the landform of Tengchong. There is a lieder in Tengchong saying that:” Such a place Tengchong, nine in ten mountains have no peaks.” It’s very vivid, from that you can see so many volcanoes are in Tengchong. There are 97 volcanoes in Tengchong now with high value of tourism and scientific research.
And now let’s go to see the youngest volcano in Tengchong, we called it “打鹰” Mountain, which means hunting eagles. This volcano lies in the center of the whole place and stands in a height of more than 2600 meters. It looks sheer, tall and straight, just like the famous Fuji in Japan. And we always consider it to be Fuji second.
Everyone, pay attention to this kind of special stone. It looks like a very big stone, maybe it’s too heavy to carry. And now look at me, I can hold it easily. Aha, it’s light, lighter than I think. This kind of stone we call it “浮石”, which means a kind of stone can float on the water. It’s formed by the erupting of the volcanoes.
Everyone, please follow me. Now we will go to see the hot springs. There are all kinds of hot springs in Tengchong, which occupy a vast land. When you go there you can see a vaporous world just like a wonderland. The temperature of the water is very high. If you put an egg into the hot spring, after 10 minutes, you can get it out and eat it. Of course the taste is good, would you like to have a try?
Of course you can enjoy natural beauties as well. The pearl Spring drops big and small beads continuously, just like the pearls crawling in the plate. And 醉鸟 Swell, whoes name means letting the birds get drunk, has a strange function. When there are birds flying above it, the birds will fall down and fall asleep. It’s really interesting.
And after visiting these wonderful spots, we can have a rest, and maybe some of you want to have a bath in the hot spring. I suggest you do so, because the water here can cure disease which based on medical reasons.
300 hundred years ago, a famous traveler named 徐霞客 came here and was overwhelmed by the scenery of Volcanoes and Hot Springs, today the same scenery overmaster us.

Entering the Meridian Gate, there are five marble bridges on the InnerGolden Water River, shaped like a bow. The five marble bridges just look likefive arrows reporting symbolically to heaven. The five bridges were supposed torepresent the five virtues preached by Confucius-benevolence, righteousness,rite, intelligence and fidelity.
Across the Inner Golden Water Bridge, we get to the Gate of SupremeHarmony. During the Ming and early Qing dynasties, here was the place where theemperor gave his audience, accepted documents from his ministers and madedecisions here. There are two bronze lions guarding in front of the Gate ofSupreme Harmony. The male lion was usually put on the left, playing with anembroidered design ball, which is said to show the emperor's supreme power. Theother one on the right is the female lion, playing with a lion cub with its leftpaw symbolizing prosperity of the royal family's offsprings.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony is 35.5 meters high with double layered roofthat represents the highest construction rank of all. Now, let's ascend thestairs and move on to look at articles in display on two sides of the hall. Onthe top layer of the terrace stands a sundial on the east an imperial grainmeasure on the west. The sundial is an ancient time measure or a time-measuringapparatus used in the old days. The sundial tells the time by seeing the shadowof the metal pin on the sundial, which has an inclination angle of 50 degreeswith the graduation on it. The grain measure was used as the national standardmeasure in agriculture in the old days. Both the grain measure and the sundialwere symbols of the emperor's justice and rectitude.
There are two pairs of incense burners in the shape of bronze dragon-headedtortoises and bronze cranes placed on each side. They are both symbols oflongevity.
When you look up the building in the Forbidden City, you can see mythicalanimal statues on the eaves of each building. Originally, there used to be bigwooden nails on the roof to prevent the tiles from sliding down. Later they werereplaced by glazed tiles, which were shaped into mythical animal statues forbetter beautification. They are symbols of auspiciousness and peace, and peoplebelieved that they are capable of subduing fire and warding off evilspirits.
Inside of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, you can see the gilded caissonceiling high above the throne with a magnificent sculpture of a curling dragonplaying with a huge pear was called “Xuanyuan Jing”, representing orthodoxsuccession.
This hall is supported by 72 giant columns inside. In the old days, thetraditional way of the Chinese to calculate a “room” is that: a square enclosedby four pillars was treated as one “room”, so the hall can be said to have 55“rooms” in total. The six columns inside are gilded and painted with coileddragon amidst clouds, and the rest are painted red.
The emperor's throne is placed on the dais in the center, and carved incloud and dragon patterns and gilded. On both sides of the throne are a pair ofelephant-shaped incense burners symbolize universal peace and two incenseburners shaped as a mythical animal 9,000 kilometers per day and speaking allthe languages of nearby kingdoms. Around the throne stand a pair of bronzecranes and in front of the dais is four cloisonné incense burners. The floor onthe ground is paved with “Gold Bricks”, specially made in Suzhou.
The Hall of Middle Harmony is a square-shaped hall with a single pyramidicroof standing behind the Hall of Supreme Harmony. This was the place where theemperor would take a short rest before he went to the Hall of Supreme Harmonyfor grand ceremonies. Every year before the emperor went to the Altars andTemples, the emperor would receive and read the sacrificial address here.
Before the emperor went to the Altar of Agriculture for offering thesacrifice, the seeds intended for spring sowing and the ploughs were examinedhere, just to show the concern of the emperor for agriculture.
According to the rule, the imperial genealogy should be revised every tenyears. The ceremony of presenting the genealogy to the emperor for revision andapproval would also be held here.
Now, we come to the Hall of Preserving Harmony, the last of the three fronthalls.
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, on each New Year's Eve and the 15th day ofthe lunar moth, banquets would be held to entertain the civil and militaryofficials and the princes and envoys of the Mongolian nobles and othernationalities. To celebrate the princess's marriage, the emperor would incitethe bridegroom and his father as well as their relatives who served for theimperial government to a banquet.

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 a pool 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). 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, and stands 1,256 metres high. it is covered with pines and cypresses, looking very much like a 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 favourite lady, yang gui fei used to make their 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 luke warm vapour rising out of the hot spring. this is the frost drifting hall that greets us today.

Yin Ruins Yin Ruins is at Xiaotun Village of Anyang City. In ancient times,Xiaotun was called Yin and it was the capital of the Shang Dynasty. So theperiod was also called Yin Shang. After the Yin had been overthrown, the citydeclined and the remains of it was later called the Yin Ruins. Since thefounding of new China, the Yin Ruins had been listed as the first group ofcultural relics under national protection. In order to preserve its culture, thegovernment built “Garden of the Yin Ruins” on the site. Today the garden isdivided into several sections with ancient objects on display.

Yin Xu is revealing its beauty tothe world.
OK, everybody. Soon we’ll get to the Museum on Yin Ruins, the best museumfor the study of the Yin Shang Culture. The Yin Ruins is famous for threethings,i.e.the oracle inscriptions, the bronze wares and the ancient capital ofthe Shang Dynasty. As you know, China is one of the earliest countries todiscover characters. As early as 4,000 years ago, people used bones or tortoiseshells to record events of their social life. It is the earliest written form oflanguage in the world. Today we call them the oracle bone inscriptions, whichwere first discovered in the Yin Ruins. Well,let’s come to the main hall wherethe oracle inscriptions are exhibited. The oracle bone inscriptions were firstdiscovered during the years of Emperor GuangXu, in the Qing Dynasty. In 1899, inXiao Tun Village of Anyang City, Henan Province, villagers found many tortoiseshells and bones carved with letters and symbols, which unveiled to the worldfrom Yin Xu, an ancient city with a long history and splendid culture.Then morethan 16,000 pieces of bones and shells were found. But in the Shang Dynasty,they were used as divinations, when people were very superstitious. Theinscriptions cover a wide range of fields, such as sacrifice, wars, stateaffairs, weather, hunting, etc. Today, they provide important information forthe study of the Shang Dynasty. And the study of the oracle bone inscriptionshas become a new subject and is getting more popular among people. Since
then this place has become of great interest to worldwide archeologists,because those inscriptions have proved to be the earliest written characters ofhuman beings, the Oracles. Apart from the oracle bone inscriptions, bronze waresare another important part of the cultural relics discovered from the Ruins,which show that the technology of bronze casting reached its peak in the ShangDynasty. The bronze wares include vessels, weapons,chariots and so on. Among allthe unearthed wares, SimuwuQuadripod unearthed in the mausoleum area of the YinRuins, the largest and the most famous bronze sacrificial vessel in the world,is 875 kg in weight, 133 cm in height. Standing on the open plaza in front ofthe great hall is an enlarged copy of the original one for the convenience oftouring and appreciation, with the original one cherished in the Museum ofChinese History. With its unusual air of majesty, together with its elegance inappearance and intricately carved in patterns, it is considered a treasure inthe bronze culture of China as well as a glorious pearl shining on the peak ofthe world art. To cast such a significant vessel carrying such a great weight,advanced techniques and experiences in organization of laborers are necessary.As many scholars have pointed out, this huge bronze quadripod reflects theadvanced slavery system of the Shang Dynasty and the unusual power of creationof the people. Finally we come to the side of the imperial palaces and tombs.Lying on the southwest of the Foundation Ruins C, Fuhao Tomb is one of the mostimportant archeology discoveries in the temple. It is also the only discoveredand well-reserved tomb of Shang royal members since the science excavation ofYin Ruins. Now, let’s know something about the first woman general in Chinesehistory.FuHao was Emperor Wu Ding’s wife,both intelligent and courageous. Shehad bravely led the Yin army fighting in many wars and made great contributionsto the protecting of the country. After her death, Wu Ding built a large tombnear the palace to honor her merits. Buried together with her were many slavesand war prisoners as well assacrificial objects. The large numbers ofsacrificial objects are valuable cultural relics in the treasure house ofChinese art.

Hello everyone! Welcome to Taiwan for sightseeing. It's a great pleasure tovisit Sun Moon Lake with you. It's a great honor to have a good time with you. Iwish you all a good time!
Sun Moon Lake, located in Nantou County in Western Taiwan, is the largestnatural lake in Taiwan Province. It lies on the top of the mountain betweenYushan and Alishan. The lake has a circumference of 35 kilometers, an area of7.7 square kilometers and a water depth of 20-30 meters, more than 10 times thatof the West Lake. There are few natural lakes in Taiwan. The largest and mostfamous one is Sun Moon Lake. Its water area is 9 square kilometers, and itswater depth is more than 30 meters. There is an island in the Sun Moon Lake,which looks like a bead floating on the water from a distance. Therefore, thisisland is called “Pearl Island”, and now it is also called Guanghua island andLalu island. Taking this island as the boundary, the northern part of the lakeis round like the sun, and the southern part of the lake is curved like thecrescent moon. This is the origin of the name of Sun Moon Lake.
There is also a beautiful legend about the name of Sun Moon Lake. Once upona time, there lived two dragons in this big pool. One day, the sun passedthrough the sky, and the Dragon leaped up and devoured the sun. At night, whenthe moon passed through the sky, the mother dragon leaped up and swallowed themoon. The two dragons swam about in the pool, spitting and swallowing the sunand moon, and hitting each other. They only want to have fun, but they didn'texpect that there would be no sun and moon in the world. A local young man andwoman, smart and brave Dajian brother and Shuihua sister, are determined to findthe sun and moon for the world.
They trekked through mountains and rivers, went through all kinds ofdifficulties and dangers, and finally came to the foot of Ali Mountain and foundthe golden axe and golden scissors that the dragons were afraid of. Then theywent back to the pool and had a fierce fight with the dragon. The two dragonsfinally died, but the sun and the moon still sank in the pool. Brother Dajiantakes off the eyes of the male dragon and swallows it; sister Shuihua takes offthe eyes of the female dragon and swallows it.
They became giants and stood in the pool like two mountains. Big brotherJian threw the sun hard, and sister Shuihua pulled up the palm trees beside thepool to hold the sun up and put the sun in the sky. Then sister Shuihua threwthe moon into the sky, and brother Dajian also put the moon into the sky withpalm trees. The sun and the moon hang high in the sky, shining on the earth,everything revives, people cheering. Big brother Jian and sister Shuihua havebecome two majestic mountains standing by the pool forever. Later, people calledthis big lake Sun Moon Lake and the two big mountains dajianshan andshuihuashan.
Well, the visit to Sun Moon Lake is over. Thank you very much for yoursupport and cooperation. I hope this trip to Taiwan will leave you goodmemories. If you don't visit, please give us your valuable opinions. At the sametime, welcome to Sun Moon Lake again. Goodbye!
Hello, tourists!
Prince Gong's mansion used to be the home of “the most greedy one in allages”. Later, Emperor Jiaqing made twenty-four charges and confiscated hishouse. Because the last owner was Prince Gong Aixinjueluo Yijin, it was calledPrince Gong's mansion.
There are two dragon veins in Beijing, one is the central axis of Beijing,the other is the moat. The Palace Museum is located at the head of the centralaxis. Prince Gongqin's residence is located at the intersection of the twodragon veins. He Lin once said, “the emperor takes the dragon's head, I take thedragon's tail.”. Although the dragon's head is in charge of the overallsituation, it still needs the dragon's tail to do great things. &“Listen, HoHo is so ambitious that he deserves to be the first greedy person in allages.”;!
There are 9999 bats in Prince Gongqin's mansion;. This is not a real bat,but a bat like building. In order to make himself happy, he took the homonym of“Fu” and built 9999 bats;.
When you enter the door, the first thing you see is a huge bat;. This is abat like pond called “Fu Chi”;. Rockery and gravel are randomly scattered on theBank of the pool. Around Fuchi, elms are planted. The fruit and leaf of elms arelike copper coins. Whenever the fruit and leaf of copper coins fall into Fuchi,Hexiang will laugh and laugh: & lt; money falling from the sky enters my& lsquo; cornucopia & gt;, and the money on the ground also flows intomy bag. &“That's true!
We followed the gurgling water of Fuchi and came to a door. This is abeautiful western gate with bright colors and fine workmanship. It is said thatthis is one of his 24 counts. Because this western gate was made after thewestern gate in the royal garden.
After entering the western gate and bypassing the stone carving of ”SongziGuanyin“, it is the opera garden of the ho family. In front of the play gardenis a garden, with some flowers in the trim bushes. The play ”Xiangfei playsbutterfly“ in huanzhuge was shot here. Only two places in Beijing are coveredwith green bricks. One is the Taihe hall in the Forbidden City, and the other isthe stage of the ho family. Because the sound amplification effect of greenbrick is very good, singing on the stage does not need any sound amplificationtools. In such a large theater, everyone can hear music, and it is also a greathonor to stand on the stage full of green bricks and sing for the powerfulministers such as he Lu.
Through the well carved Zhulan corridor, you come to the study of he Lin.The study is surrounded by rockery and bamboo groves, quiet and quiet. The wholeGongqin palace is not built with stone bricks. This study is made of a specialkind of bamboo. It's warm in winter and cool in summer. He likes to stayhere.
Out of the study, the magnificent building in front is the main hall — & mdash; where he Lin meets visitors. To get to the main hall, thereis a very special road. There is only one ladder, and then there is a straightand gentle slope. Because he said that in his life, he had suffered only when hewas young, and then he went all the way to the peak of power. We can cross thebottom of the ladder, avoid suffering, and go straight to the top;.
There is a story: when the Empress Dowager of Xiaozhuang was very old andsick, she loved her grandson Emperor Kangxi very much and was very depressed. Heasked Su malagu, his maid, to prepare her pen and paper, and with a stroke ofher pen, she wrote ”Fu“. After finishing the writing, Xuanye and Su malagu lookat the word ”Fu“ and are stunned & mdash; & mdash; the word is powerfuland natural. If you look closely, you can see many phrases: more fields, moresons, more talents, more longevity & hellip; & hellip; isn't this thewish of the emperor's grandmother? The more Emperor Kangxi saw it, the moresatisfied he was, he ordered people to put the word ”Fu“ on a huge stone. As aresult, the empress dowager, who had been ill for a long time, soon recovered.Emperor Kangxi was so happy that he decided to pass on this auspicious andauspicious stone from generation to generation, so that the Aixinjueluo familycould prosper from generation to generation.
Unfortunately, when it reached Qianlong, it was stolen out of the palace.This person is he Lin. Now this stone is at the foot of our main hall, onlyshowing the side with the word ”Fu“. This & quot; blessing & quot; isthe 10th blessing of Prince Gongqin's mansion, which means & quot; tenthousand blessings & quot;. He Shen also said with an air: & lt; theemperor is & lsquo; long live & gt; and I am & lsquo; Wanfu >! & gt; later, when Emperor Jiaqing copied his house, he wanted to movethe Fushi back to the palace, but he didn't. He Lin was too cunning. He built abat like Fushan mountain with stones and built a dragon on the left and right ofthe word ”Fu“, implying that ”the Dragon sits on the river and mountain“.Emperor Jiaqing didn't want to destroy himself, so he left the stone.
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.

Brief introduction of the first description: xinjiang is located in China's northwest border regions in China, also called, the second-largest pasture, ecological environment. North of continental climate, the winters are long and hard, summer, autumn season and hot chirp is not obvious, relatively strong, solar radiation temperature changes. So remind everybody must pay attention to prevent bask in the night and temperature is too big and prepare appropriate clothes. Meanwhile, xinjiang has the advantageous sunshine, light, heat and planting trees and the crops of thermophilic melon, improve sugar accumulation. So a luscious taste the melon and fruit in xinjiang.
Our first stop was the urumqi. It is the farthest from the oceans of the world cities, capital of xinjiang uygur autonomous region, meaning ”beautiful“, but also the ranch along. We recommend the attraction is the natural pasture, carefree nanshan pasture flocks, paolo maldini, compose in green grassland, spruce, combining the deep valley, and a 20 meters high, the waterf-all. Here you can live on the shores of the ZhanFang, taste herdsmen Nang, dairy products, roast lamb kebabs, ZhuaFan hand, etc. Bake complete sheep is a choice JieYang surrounding xinjiang, or under the age of two lambs as raw materials, to fat with flour and entrails, feet, salt water, eggs, pepper, alone powder evenly into paste, in the whole body, then add the sheep are soaking pit, Nang bake until cooked.

You may have noticed that a foot on this land, and we are the only dry! The sun is so frankly, the baking temperature has reached 50 to 60 degrees Celsius, i.e., steaming eggs. You also don't too boring, let us imagine a pleasant trip to the sauna.
