园博园的导游词最最最少
尊敬的各位领导、来宾:大家好
欢迎来到美丽的重庆园博园观光游览。
我是你们今天的随行讲解员,我姓X ,大家可以叫我小X。
那我们即将开始今天的园博园之旅啦,首先请各位拉好扶手注意安全。
在不停车的情况下,此次游览需要历时一个小时左右,如果中途有需要停下来拍照休息之类的,可以随时吩咐停车。
首先出现在我们右手方呢这座仿明清风格的建筑是主展馆,整个建筑共5层,内设有办公室、会议室、展厅、多功能厅等,总高度为33米,它是园博园内最重要的标志性建筑和景点。
在主展馆的前方是主广场,占地面积达32100平方米,采用巴渝传统风格设计而成,构建了极具巴渝特色的大门牌坊,并且中间有大型的地景印章“重庆”二字。
(大家请看),周围有传统图示符号的铺地、整齐的草坪和树阵,以及规则的水景都体现出广场简洁大气和典雅的氛围,它与主展馆共同构成园博园入口处宏大的景观和开阔的视野。
重庆园博园是第八届中国重庆国际园林博览会的会址,位于重庆市北部新区鸳鸯镇龙景湖区域,总占地面积达3300亩,其中水体面积有800亩,是一个集自然景观和人文景观为一体的超大型城市公园。
园博会每两年举办一次,先后在大连、济南、深圳等城市开展,于2011年11月至2012年5月在我们重庆举办。
园区的主要建筑风格为古典风和传统风,因此在园内我们随处可以看到亭廊轩榭、楼塔书院等古香古色的建筑。
按功能分区,园内共设有入口区、景园区、展园区和生态区四大部分。
包含了10大展区,127个展园以及26大景点。
那位我左前方的是26景之一的湿地花溪景区。
湿地花溪是位于主入口与龙景书院之间的,区内主要设置有银杏小广场和亲水小平台,临水处中只有各种水生和湿生的植物,形成生趣盎然的湿地景观。
大斜坡处种植有香樟、银杏、紫荆花等数木和植被。
最大的特色是整座山体保留了原生态的竹林并人工种植了柑橘、枇杷等果树。
现在映入我们眼帘的这个湖叫龙景湖。
在建园之前它 仅是一个名叫赵家溪的小沟渠,建园时因人工修建大坝,蓄积天然的雨水而形成如今水波粼粼的800 亩湖面,贯穿整个园区。
从游览地图上看去,整个轮廓像是一只美丽的凤凰。
为使各个园区更好的连接起来,共在湖面上修建了7座中国古典石桥。
在我左手方的就是7座古典石桥之一的龙景桥了,它连接着巴渝园和龙景书院,桥的对面就是龙景书院,中央布局有奇石馆、书画摄影展和龙景书屋等,它以传统的空间结构向我们展示出中华传统文化的独特魅力。
接下来,前方映入大家眼前的这座高塔叫重云塔,重庆的重,云彩的云,塔高50.7米,是全园景观的制高点和点睛之笔。
有“巍巍高百丈,直入破重云”的意境。
在左边的是同心桥,连接着巴渝园和沐风幽廊景区。
我们正通过的这座桥是七座桥中最短的一座,仅34米,叫巴渝桥,是仿赵州桥风格修建而成的古典石桥。
穿过巴渝桥就来到了巴渝园,巴渝园位于园博园中部,面积约8万平米,采用巴渝传统的吊脚楼建筑手法,建造了10座各具特色的山地院落,形成“园中隐院,院融景园”的空间格局。
这些建筑依山伴水,飞檐翘角,高低错落,与湖面倒影形成了一抹空灵隽秀的美景,向我们营造出一幅“清风绕重楼,屋宇叠山丘”的优美画卷。
像这样的吊脚楼在我们重庆仅有三处,一处是磁器口,一处是洪崖洞,还有一处就是巴渝园了。
游客朋友们不仅可在此欣赏巴渝美景,亦能品尝到巴渝美食。
因为它也是园区的主要功能服务区,内设有茶楼餐饮等,可供游客在此休闲用餐。
在左前方又是另一个景点叫卧龙石景区,景区内有一天然的大巨石,长约120米,宽约30米,相传是龙歇息的地方,故而得名“卧龙石”,有“龙石卧山崖,千影映绝壁”之意境。
那么右手方的是云顶揽胜景区,位于主展馆后方的山体顶端,是全园内9座上体的制高点,面积约2万平米,景区设置有观景平台,可供游客在此凭栏远眺,是登高揽胜的绝佳景点。
在景区内还有一个重要景点——同心园,它是根据同心思想设计的,由中共重庆市委统战部牵头,精心打造的全国第一处以统战文化为主体的公园。
体现的是“同心同行,共建和谐”的主旨,同时也展示出中国共产党领导的多党合作制的精髓。
那么左下方的是露天剧场,它是园区内组织展示和表演活动的重要场所。
剧场的空间布局充分利用地形地貌,以中式的舞台加上西式的看台组成。
底层为表演准备间,顶层则形成背山面水的进水楼台,圆弧形的看台加上邻近的草坪可以容纳近一万三千名观众在此观看表演,所有这些宛若一把打开的中国折纸扇,使整个剧场形成了一道中西合璧的风景线。
那么,各位领导,现在我们呢是沿着贵宾通道围绕着主展馆游览了一周,又回到了主入口区域,那接着今天的游览。
在右手方是模纹世界景区,我们提取了中国传统的门窗元素作为模纹基本形,在其中镶嵌中国传统园林四大造景要素——山、水、树、人作为主题功能区展开演绎的一个植物迷宫式建筑,并且还引进了6只恐龙雕塑,当有游客走近的时候,还会发出恐龙特有的吼叫声并做出头部及尾部摆动的行为令游客特别是小朋友们非常喜欢。
右前方的是星光林,由历届振兴重庆争光贡献奖和感动重庆十大杰出人物的获奖者们在这里挥汗如雨,种下银杏、香樟、桂花、广玉兰等乔木。

天涯海角导游词怎么作文400字
——天涯海角。
很久很久以前,我认为天涯海角不过是别人幻想中的世外桃源,不可信。
可是,现在我知道了天涯海角这个美丽的地方,对那里充满了向往。
尽管,天涯海角,不过是一块石头而已。
天之涯,海之角。
到过那里的人,都会有一种到了天地之尽头的感觉。
沙滩上,那一块小小的石头,就是天涯海角啊。
小时候,我和我最好的玩伴说,长大后,我们要一起去天涯海角。
可是现在,过去的,就只能变成回忆。
坐在电脑前,慢慢的输入“天涯海角”这四个字。
点击进入,一张张图片映入眼帘。
突然落泪。
曾经说好的,要一起去天涯海角,但是现在却是实现不了的诺言。
对,天涯海角,只不过是古人在石头上刻的字而已。
但是,我想刻字的那个人,也很向往“天涯海角”这个地方吧
希望,在天涯海角,找到自己的天地。

我是阳光旅行社的国家级导游,我姓X,今天,我将带您领略一番美景,那就是草原
大家看
草原上的小丘多美呀
一碧千里,翠色欲流,一片诗情画意的情境。
牧羊人,每天都会带着羊群在山上吃草,他们奔跑,羊儿和牧羊人欢快的融入这一片美丽的风景中,羊儿在草原上尽情舞蹈,一会儿跑到小丘上,一会儿又下到小丘来,羊儿们就像是茫茫大海中的几层波浪,是这片草海里面最活跃的精灵
遥望这一片草海,特色蒙古包,点缀在上面像一颗颗蘑菇。
这里的风景太让人陶醉了,青草鲜嫩,颜色青翠,似在流动,是一副富有生机的流动画面啊
…… 大草原不仅风景美,人更美。
您来到了这里,你看啊,蒙古族老乡穿着节日的盛装,策马疾驰,远迎您的到来。
蒙古人可真好客啊
他们让每个来到这里的人,带上哈达,送去他们最真挚,最诚意的问候

一群群的羊在草原上奔跑着,走在哪里都像给无边的绿毯绣上了白色的大花,是那么的美
草原的空气是那么清鲜,天空是那么明朗,使人心旷神怡,在那种境界里即愿久立四望,又想坐下低吟一首奇丽的小诗,就连骏马和大牛都有时候静立不动,好像回味着草原无限乐趣。
来到蒙古包,又见我的同胞,主人迎客,群马领跑,少年套马,壮士摔跤,武士舞刀;主人举杯,老翁敬酒,少年献歌。
蒙古族同胞的纯朴热情,也证明了蒙汉情深。

The construction began on March 12,1926 and was completed in 1929 when the remains of Dr.Sun Yatsen was transported from Beijing and buried at the present site on June,1.Dr.Sun Yatsen, also named Sun Wen or Sun Zhongshan, is considered as the forerunner of the Chinese democratic revolution.Dr.Sun Yatsen is a great man because he devoted 40 yeas of his life to pursuing his dream to overthrow the feudal monarchy and build a progressive, united and democratic Republic of china.Why was Dr.Sun Yatsen buried in Nanjing instead of in his hometown or Beijing where he died?The mausoleum site was first recommended to Dr.Sun Yatsen by the abbot of Linggu Temple for its good geomantic omen.One day in April, 1912, he went hunting at the site of present mausoleum with his friends.Dr.Sun Yatsen was really so amazed by the beautiful environment that he aid to them :I wish I could be bestowed a piece of land by people and be buried here after my death”.He once again expressed this desire in his sickbed in 1925.The architect named Lu Yanzhi .Dr.Sun Yasen’s Mausoleum is designed in the shape of a liberty bell, intending to remind people never to get self-contented. The park of mausoleum covers an area of 800000 square meters. The whole architecture ,from the gateway to the main entrance,tablet pavilion ,memorial hall and the tomb valult,lies on the north-south axis with 392 steps ans 10 platforms in between .The buildings are all constructed with natural granite and marbls and convered by blue glazed-title roofs.Opposite to the bronze incense-burner off the quare, stands the 12-meter high gateway of three arches with Dr.Sun Yatsen’s handwriting “Fraternity” carved on its front top.

From there, a panoramic view of the memorial hall can be obtained. However, there are still 392 steps in 4 flight to go before tourists reach the memorial hall on the top , and a platform with stone benches at evry flight so as not to exhaust the climbers.The memorial hall stands 73.33 meters abov the ground. The lintel of the memorial hall is inscried with “nationalism, democratic rights and people’s livelihood” and a vertical plaque is carved with 4 characters “Hao qi chang cun ” meaning imperishable noble spirit. All these words are written in Dr.Sun’s own hand. In the center of the memorial hall sits the Italian white marble statue of Dr.Sun Yatsen mounted on a pedestal carved in bas-relief by a Polish sculptor about his revolutionary activities. The surrounding walls are inscribed with the national constitution written by Dr.Sun Yatsen. Beyond the memorial hall is the tomb vault .Standing by the side of the pool, as visitors look down, they bow to see Dr.Sun Yatsen’s reclining marble statue with his body buried 5 meters underneath. If one looks up, he will find the emblem of the nationalist Party on the ceiling.When one wraps up the homage tour and steps down, he will not only enjoy a bird’s eyeview of beautiful Nanjing , but also feel toally reliveed because he does not see any more of those 392 steps , but the platforms. Not until then, will he understand how great Dr.Sun Yatsen is.The whole mausoleum is an architectural complex in a typical and traditional Chinese style, and the layout is harmonious and rational.All the buildings are roofed with blue-glazed tiles. With pine trees and cypresses growing around ,the mausoleum looks magnificent and dignified.Dr.Sun’s Mausoleum attracts thousands of visitors everyday.XiaoLing Tomb of The Ming DynastyXiaoling Tomb,or the tomb of filial piety, built 600 years ago ,is the mausoleum of Zhu Yuan zhang , the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Lying at the southern foot of the Purple Mountain ,the tomb complex is one of the largest ancient mausoleums of the emperors in china.Zhu Yuanzhang began to have his tomb built in 1381 when his wife Empress Ma died. The empress was buried in the tomb in 1383.But Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang died in 1398 and was buried here in the same year.But the construction of the mausoleum lasted 38 years or more till 1431 when ‘the Steke if Sacred Neruts abd Virtues of Great Ming’ Filial Tomb’ was erected.The mausoleum consists of two major sections.The first section is from the Gateway of Dismounting Horse to the Lingxing Gate at the end of Sacred Way(tomb avenue), of which the approach is 1800 meters long. The second part is the tomb itself. Historical records indicate the mausoleum had a grand red wall, 22.5 kilometers long, enclosing the whole tomb area. The tomb conple was very large with many splendid buildings. 100000 pines were planted and 1000 deer raised in the park of mausoleum. Unfortunately, this large group of buildings was ruined by the wars in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties and the war in which by the Qing Dynasty army. All the wooden structures wre destroyed. However we can still see the exquisite stone carvings from the stone bases and imagine how magnificent it looked like 600 years ago.The tomb gate known as grand golden gate was a traditional architecture and connected with the red wall. The gateway of Dismounting Horse locates about 750 meters south from here.This shows the absolute dignity of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang at that time.To the east of the gateway,there are two tablets:the holy Mountain Tablet and the Tablet of Mountain Forbidden Regulations decreeing the entrance of the ordinary people into the holy area was to be severely punished. The royal court dispatched troops here to atand as guards at the mausoleum in the years.that is why the site has been called Xiaolingwei meaning the Town of Filial guard.Northwards from the great golden gate, a huge roofless stone tablet pavilion canbe seen ,it is the Square Castle, as local people call it . Its top is gone but the surrounding walls and four archways still remain. In the middle of the building ,there stands ans 8.78 meters high stele called :The Stele of Sacred Merits and Virtues of Great Ming’s Filial Tomb.It was built in 1413 by the third emperor ,Zhu yuanzhang ‘s fourth son.The stele is inscribed altogether with 2746 Chinese characters in praise of the merits and virtues of Emperor Zhu yuanzhang .The sacred way is lined on both sides with 12 pairs of giant stone animals in 6 kiinds. For each kind of the animals, there are one pair standing and the other kneeling. The standing pair is working and the kneeling resting and they are on duty alternately. The real purpose of building these animals is to demonstrate the royal magnificence and the emperor’s dignity, to drive away evil spirits and guard the tomb. The first 2 pairs of animals are lions, king of the beasts symbolizing power.The second 2 pairs of animals are called Bixie, a unicorn-shaped mythical animal, said to e clever and capale of distinguishing between good and evil.The following pairs of animals include camels, elepahants, Kylins or chinese unicorns and horses. The camel is known as boat in the desert and symbol of prosperity. Each elephant , which is the largest and heaviest sculpture, weighs 80 tons and symbolizes peace. The kylin represents good luck as well as horse loyalty.In ancient times ,it was rather difficult to move these heavy stone animals. The fact is that workers splashed water on the ground in cold winter, and pushed the stone animals to the present locations on the surface of frozen ice.Two 6.25 meter-high stone pillars serve as alters for the sacrificial offerings. Both the hexagonal pillars are carved with the patterns of clouds and dragons arousing visitors’sreverence and worship to the emperor . The sacred avenue makes a right turn here just because the Plum Blossom Hill stands in the way. The hill is the tomb for Sun Quan , The first emperor of Eastern Wu kingdom. It is said that when the tomb was constructed,some ministers suggested that Sun Quan’s tomb should be moved away. But Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang commented that Sun Quan was a good fellow and should stay there to be the concierge of his tomb. The Plum Blossom hill now is popular excursion site for the local people in spring when the plum trees are in full blossom.Beyond the memorial pollars there are 4 pairs of stone WenZhongs,2 pairs each of court officials and warriors. Legend has it that there was a giant about 10meters tall of Qin Dynasty.The warriors,3.26meters high, are in armor with weapons in hands while court officials are in court ceremonial robe with writing board in hans to take notes of the emperor’s edict.Behind the statue, there used to be a gate named Lingxing Gate.About 270 meters away from the gate is the stone bridge spanning over a small stream, yet it is called the Imperial Moat Bridge.The bridge used to have 5 arches , but was renovated into 3 arches later in the Qing Dynasty. The bridge foundation and stone dykes are the original except the rail.About 200 meters north of the Imperial Moat Bridge is the front gate to the tomb. This area is the rear section of the tomb.The arch gate has 5 doorways, with yellow glazed tiles, red walls and doors . The lintel of the middle gate is engraved with 3 Chinese characters Meaning ‘Xiaoling Tomb of Ming Dynasty’. Or “Ming’s Filial Tomb” given by the emperor himself but Ming was added actually later in the Qing timees. It reflects the emperor’s idea to administer the country with filial piety which is the very instruction of Confucius, the most influential Chinese philosopher.At the right of the gate, there is a table stone on which is inscribed with ‘The Special Notice’ written in 6 foreign languages of Japanese,German, English, French, Italian and Russian respectivel to reaffirm the attention to the protection of the filial tomb in the late Qing years.Inside the gate is an entrance hall, of which in the middle is ‘the Stele of Administering the ountry well as the Tang and Song dynasties’. The tablet stone is engraved with the handwriting of Emperor Kangxi when he was paying his homage to the entombed emperor during his third inspection tour to the area in 1699.Standing behind the hall is the Filial Hall or Sacrificial hall ,which is one of the major buildings in the mausoleum employed to enshrine Emperor Zhun Yuanzhang and his empress.But the original was destroyed in the wars, and the present one was rebuilt and twice restored in the Qing Dynasty.The citadel of Treasures is the last building on the ground, 16.25meters high, 75 meters wide and 31 meters in depth. Ascending a flight of 54 stone stairs from an archway of the citadel is the tomb proper covered by a large earthen mound 400 meters in diameter. Under the mound rest the emperor and his consorts , and as the records testify, 50 or more concubines and maids of honor were buried alive for company. Their families were ensured holy titles, but these young lives became the eternal victims of feudal sacrifice system.The tomb is at the foot of Purple Mountain. It has not been excavated because of the technical reasons of preservation.Linggu TempleLinggu Temple park lies about one and half kilometers to the east of Dr.Sun Yatsen’s Mausoleum. It was called Jiangshan Temple in ancient time and its original site was in Dulongfu at the foot of the purple Mountain. However, in the early days of the Ming Dynast(1368-1644),Emperor Zhun Yuanzhang chose that place to build his tomb, thus the temple had to be moved and rebuilt at the present site and was renamed as the Linggu Temple with an inscription “The Fist Buddhist Forest” at the entrance there is a secluded footpath with thousands of pine trees, verdant and luxuriant , so it is called the “Valley of Spirit Deep in Pines”. It is one of the 48 attractions in Nanjing . Main attractions in the park include LInggu Temple , the gateway of officers and men killed in action, Beamless hall,Pine and Wind Pavilion, Linggu Pagoda, Monk Baogong Pagoda and Table of three Great Artists, etc.The first major attracton is the gate way of officials and men killed in action. In November 1928, when Chiang Kaishek’s Kuomintang government made a decision to turn the Linggu temple into a crmetery of officials and men killed in battles, the original entrance to the temple was rebuilt into a three-arch gateway for the dead officials and men. The gateway has 5 principle colums made of concrete cement. The gate has its foundation inlaid with granite on surface and roofed by blue-glazed tile. The lintel of the middle door is carved with 4 Chinese characters “great Justice and Virtue” in front face and “Salvation of the Nation and People” on the back. The side lintels of the gate are decorated with the emblems of the Kmt party.Inside the park there is the Beamless Hall built in 1381 in the Ming dynast. The hall,53.8 meters long, 37.85 meters wide and 22meters high, was built entirely of bricks and stones from top to bottom without a piece of wood, hence the name. There are nine ouverlapping redges and three dagobas decorating the top reges. In terms of size, the Beamless Hall stands first and formost of its kind in china. It was built more than 200 years earlier than the other same kind Hall in other ares.No wonder it is considered a masterpiece of Chinese stone-brick buildings. The diffculty involved in its construction and the complexity of techniques adopted testify the wisdom of the architects of that time in china.In 1928, the KMT government turned the hall into a sacrificial memorial hall to hold memorial ceremony for the martyrs, and a stand in the main lobby of the hall for worshipping the Boundless Longevity Buddha was turned into sacrificial platform. The middle of the three tablets on the hall is engraved with characters reading “The Bier of the National Revolutionary Martys”.”Dying Words of the State father” inscribed on the right and national antem of the Republic of china on left.The names of 33000 officials and men died in the North Expedition War against Warlords and the War of Resistance against Japan are carved on the black marble tablets inlaid in the walls. All these remain intact as they were in the 1930s.An irregular and zigzag enclosure wall is built between the Beamless Hall and the Pine and Wind Pavilion, symbolizing the rim of KMT Blussky and Dayright Flag. A tree planted in the middle of a circle symbolizes the Sun with brick made halo around.No.1 cemetery is in between the two sacrificial pillars standing near the hall. The other two cemeteries locate on both west and east of the Beamless Hall.The whole design seems that the cemetery is under the bluesky and Daybright Flag.The Pine and Wind Pavilion was built in 1929, as the memorial hall of the officials and men killed in the action with the things left behind by the martyrs.The pavilion was damaged in the war of Resistance against Japan and restored agter 1949. The present name Pine and wind Pavilion was given after its restoration. Beyond the Pavilion is and ancient two-layered tripod , on which is inscribed 4 characters “Engraved Trepod for Memory of Merits”Linggu Pagoda was built in 1933 as a memorial pagoda for the officials and men killed in wars. The ninestoreyed ovtagonal, is over sixty-meter-high, with a corridor encircled by stone rails on each story. The pagoda was designed by the famous architects Mao Fei and Dong Dayou . 3 characters “Linggupagoda” are inscribed on the lintel of the front door and “where there is a will there’s a way” on the lintel of the back door. On the exterior wall there are 4 characters “Faithful Dedication to the Service of the nation” which is the handwriting of Chiang Kaishek. Inside the pagoda a spiral staircase of 252 steps winds to the top through the nine stories. The inner walls from the second floor to the forth are inlaid with Dr.Sun’s farewell speech made in Whangpoa Military Academy on November 30,1924 just before the starting of the North Expedition War. The inner walls from fifth to the eighth are inlaid with Dr.Sun’s opening speech for Whangpoa Militray Academy made on June 16,1924. When one gets to the top story and gazes into the distance, one can get panoramic view of the entire area with fantastic scenery.In the bushes west of Pine and Pavilion there lies a tomb pagoda “Baogong Pagoda” named after the eminent Monk Baozhi of the southern Dynasties.The linggu Temple was relocated to the present site in the Ming dynasty and Linggu Buddhist Monastery by Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang. The present temple is much small than it used to be .In the temple there is the Treasure Hll of the Great Sage. In the east of the hall , there is a chamber , which used to be called the Goddesso fo mercy Hall. But it is turned to bhe memorial hll of Master Xuan zang, who went on a pilgrimage to India in the 7th century and brought back with him large quantities of Buddhist sutras. Then he devoted to the translation of these sutras and greatly enriched the Chinese Buddhist culture in the Tang Dynasty.City wall of Ming DynastyThe building of the wall began in 1366, ordered by Zhu Yuanzhang who adopted the suggestion of “building the high wall” by one of his staff and founded the Ming Dynasty two years later.More than 200000 people were employed on the project and many of them died befor the wall was completed in 1386.The wall was 33.678 kilomters in circumference and 14.21 meters high on average. The base of the wall is 14meters wide and the top of the wall is 7meters wide.It was the ongest city wall in the world and the city enclosed by it remained the world’s largest until the 17th century. Great part of the wall base is made of granite or rectangular slabs of lime stone,and both sides of the wall are laid with huge bricks. Each brick is 45 centimeters long, 20 centimeters wide and 10 centimeters thick with a weight of 15 kilograms. The bricks were cemented in with a mortar of lime mixed with tung oil and glutinous rice gruel. In order to guarantee the quality of the wall, Zhu Yuanzhang had tight control over the making of all bricks. The brick-makeers and the officials were responsible for overseeing the quality. In case a brick was found not up to the standard, all of them were supposed to be punished. Therefore many parts of the wall are
