Yellow Crane Tower is a famous historical spot at home and abroad. It isthe landmark building of Wuhan City, known as the "thoroughfare of nineprovinces". Whether you are cruising on the Yangtze River or passing the BeijingGuangzhou railway, you can see this famous building towering over the snakemountain. It can be said that the unique geographical location, together withthe poems, poems, couplets and plaques left by the literati of the pastdynasties, has created this famous cultural building with the beauty ofmountains and rivers and the beauty of humanities. Since ancient times, it hasenjoyed the reputation of "the first building in the world". The Yellow CraneTower was first built in 223 A.D. in the second year of Wu and Huang dynastiesin the Three Kingdoms. It has a history of more than 1700 years since Sun Quanbuilt a military post on the mountain. Now, the Yellow Crane Tower is based onthe Yellow Crane Tower in the Qing Dynasty. It was rebuilt in 1981 and completedin 1985. You see, the main building of the Yellow Crane Tower is 51.4 metershigh, with yellow tiles and red columns, resplendent and resplendent, and allthe buildings are cast with reinforced concrete. It does not lose thetraditional unique shape of the Yellow Crane Tower, and is more magnificent thanthe Yellow Crane Tower of previous dynasties. Therefore, it enjoys thereputation of "the world's best scenery". When you come to the Yellow CraneTower, you may have a question: why is this loft named Yellow Crane tower? Don'tworry, let's take this question to the first floor hall, and then listen to meslowly. Perhaps the most eye-catching painting in the hall is the painting ofwhite clouds and yellow cranes, which is 9 meters high and 6 meters wide. It isinlaid with 756 colored bricks. The Yellow Crane Tower stands in the middle,with a fairy riding on the Yellow Crane and playing the jade flute above. Itseems to leave and return. The people below are singing and dancing, sending offand welcoming the immortal riding on the yellow crane. The whole painting isfull of romantic and magical atmosphere, Why do people in Wuhan call thelandmark building in their hometown Yellow Crane Tower?

This beautiful name comes from a beautiful apotheosis legend. In the MingDynasty, it was recorded in the report of repaying one's kindness that an oldTaoist named Xin he drank wine for half a year in a tavern, but he didn't pay acent. When he left, he drew a yellow crane on the wall with the orange peel onthe ground, and told Xinhe that as long as you clap your hands, the yellow cranewill come down and dance to cheer the drinkers. Since then, Xinhe's Tavernbusiness has been booming because of the crane. In order to be grateful to LaoDao, Xin he built a high building in situ, named "Yellow Crane Tower". Forhundreds of years, this story has been widely spread in China, and has becomethe most influential legend of the Yellow Crane Tower.

OK, please follow me up. Our current location is not the second floor, butthe mezzanine between the first floor and the second floor, commonly known asthe horse racing gallery. There are such horse racing corridors between everytwo floors. You can calculate that the Yellow Crane Tower originally has fivefloors. In addition, the horse racing corridor between every two floors has atotal of nine floors inside. Therefore, the Yellow Crane Tower has a buildingstructure of five floors outside and nine floors inside. Here are somehistorical celebrities' calligraphy and paintings. You can enjoy them. As youcan see, there are six models of Yellow Crane Tower in Tang, song, yuan, Ming,Qing Dynasties and modern times on the second floor. They each represent thearchitectural styles of their own times. You see, the Yellow Crane Tower of theTang Dynasty is connected with the city on the first floor and has only twofloors on the outside. The overall structure is simple and rough, giving peoplea sense of simplicity and vigor.

Take another look at the Song Dynasty building, which is composed of fourparts: building, terrace, porch and corridor. Each floor has a double eaves,which shows the delicate and meaningful artistic style of the Song Dynasty. Theform of the Yuan Dynasty continued the style of the Song Dynasty, while the MingDynasty was still two-tier. If you look at it again, there are some clothawnings and other things. Do you know what they are for? Yes, they are theumbrellas used by people in ancient times. Look at the Yellow Crane Tower of theQing Dynasty. It is divided into three levels, which refer to the time of theday. Good location. People and people. There are 12 eaves on the first floor,representing 12 hours of a day, 12 eaves on the second floor, representing 12months of a year, and 24 eaves on the third floor, representing 24 solar termsof a year. It's the most amazing thing that Chinese traditional astronomy andcalendar culture can be integrated into it. Unfortunately, in the summer of1884, that is, the 10th year of Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty, the Qingbuilding was burned to ashes because of the loss of the house at the foot of themountain. The last one is now the Yellow Crane Tower. It is based on the YellowCrane Tower of the Qing Dynasty. It was rebuilt in 1984. It not only has theunique traditional shape of the Yellow Crane Tower, but also is more magnificentthan the buildings of previous dynasties. Third floor hall to taste itshumanistic theme. A group of large-scale ceramic murals, a collection of peopleand culture, is displayed in the hall, which reproduces the scene of famousfigures in history coming to the Yellow Crane Tower to recite poems and Fu. Thefourth floor is the cultural activity place of the Yellow Crane Tower,displaying the impromptu works of famous contemporary calligraphers and paintersvisiting the building. There are also four treasures of the study speciallyprepared here. If any tourists are interested, they might as well show theirskills here. Now we come to the viewing platform on the fifth floor of theYellow Crane Tower.

The first picture we see here is a group of paintings called "the vastnessof the river and the sky", which covers an area of 90 square meters and is thelargest among the murals in the whole building. It consists of 10 colorpaintings. The three on the front wall are the center of the group of paintings.The first one records the process of the ancient Yangtze River culture from topto bottom. The second is the water waves depicted with gold lines on the stonegreen background, occupying the whole picture. It seems that people stand on across section of the Yangtze River and feel the waves rushing eastward. Thethird one reflects the process of the Yellow Crane Tower's emergence, rise andfall after the Three Kingdoms period. The other seven, painted on the e Fang,are: the source of the Yangtze River, the waterfalls in the upper reaches, thescenery of the Three Gorges, the wonders of Lushan, the scenery of Taihu Lake,the river flowing into the sea and the vicissitudes of the sea. The good timealways makes people feel so short. Our trip to the Yellow Crane Tower is overhere.

In the course of this trip, there are still many things I should do well inmy work, but I can only say to you - thank you, thank you for your strongsupport and help.

If we are destined to meet again next year, I would like to provide youwith better service. Finally, I wish you good health and all the best! Thankyou, goodbye!

第三篇：英語黃鶴樓導(dǎo)游詞

各位朋友，我們今天游覽武漢市著名的國家級風(fēng)景名勝區(qū)、中國最大的城中湖――東湖風(fēng)景區(qū)。東湖風(fēng)景區(qū)位于武漢市東郊。1982年11月被國務(wù)院審定為第一批國家重點(diǎn)風(fēng)景名勝區(qū)。占地面積88.2平方公里，其中湖面約33平方公里，是杭州西湖的六倍。沿湖依次劃分為聽濤、白馬、落雁、磨山、珞洪、吹笛六大景區(qū)。

東湖原由郭鄭湖、水果湖、湯菱湖、小潭湖、團(tuán)湖、喻家湖菱角湖等組成，它的成因較為普遍的說法是由于長江汛期洪水泛濫，泥沙在兩岸發(fā)生不等量淤積作用所形成的河流壅塞湖。東湖原是由青山港和長江貫通的自然湖泊，水位受長江水位漲落的制約。自青山港建造武豐閘后，東湖由天然湖泊成為人工控制的湖泊。東湖屬淺水湖，但在江漢湖群中又相對較深，東湖相應(yīng)最大水深近6米，全湖平均深度為2.18米，東湖最大寬度為8.1公里，平均寬度為2.9公里，最大湖容為7250萬立方米。東湖的南部，山崗起伏，層巒疊翠，有大小山峰34座，東西走向，斷斷續(xù)續(xù)，呈雁行排列成三行，一般高度在70~120米之間，最高峰喻家山，高度為149.5米，最長為磨山，長約2.5公里。東湖的東、西、北三面為平原。平原上崗地起伏，湖泊星羅棋布、江河縱橫。由于受湖區(qū)地質(zhì)地貌條件影響，東湖沿著斷谷侵入陸地，形成眾多的湖汊，構(gòu)成湖灣交錯(cuò)、湖岸曲折的特點(diǎn)。全湖岬灣交錯(cuò)，有大小岬灣120多個(gè)，岸線長111.5公里，形成時(shí)隱時(shí)現(xiàn)、時(shí)狹時(shí)闊、錯(cuò)落有致的水景，湖光山色，秀麗多姿，素有九十九灣”之稱。

東湖風(fēng)景區(qū)地形起伏，環(huán)境條件優(yōu)越，適于多種植物生長發(fā)育。有植物318萬株，其中樹木38萬株。東湖水面遼闊，港灣曲折，環(huán)境幽靜，宜于魚類和鳥類繁殖和棲息。常見的水鳥有雁、野鴨、沙鷗、樟雞、白鷺。鳥類多為百靈、黃鶯、藍(lán)雀、白頭翁、給雀、鳩、八哥、啄木鳥、喜鵲等三十多種。湖中魚類有五十多種，有鳊魚(武昌魚)、鯉魚、鱖魚、青魚、鯽魚、紅鯉等。東湖自形成以來，就有人類活動的遺跡。

西周時(shí)期，史載：楚王熊渠封其次子熊紅為鄂王。鄂王都城在今武昌?，F(xiàn)在，東湖梅嶺內(nèi)有鄂王飲馬池，相傳為鄂王筑池飲馬之所。東湖西北岸的鳳麟嘴有楚王墓，傳說為鄂王死后的墓葬。春秋時(shí)期，東湖磨山東長嘴的清河橋與鼓架山，傳說是楚莊王平息令尹(古代楚國官職名)斗越椒叛亂之地。據(jù)史載：楚莊王巡獵途中，令尹斗越椒在宮廷發(fā)起政變，追殺楚莊王到這里，兩年隔清河橋?qū)ν?。楚軍神箭手養(yǎng)由基與斗越椒隔橋比箭，一箭射死斗越椒。莊王在山上擊鼓督戰(zhàn)，平息了叛亂，鼓架山由此得名。戰(zhàn)國時(shí)期，楚國的愛國詩人和杰出的政治家屈原，在他遭放逐時(shí)，足跡曾涉及東湖。他在《九章?哀郢》中誦道：登大墳以遠(yuǎn)望兮，聊以舒吾憂心?！痹凇毒耪?涉江》中誦道：乘鄂渚而反顧兮，唉秋冬之緒風(fēng)?！本渲械拇髩灐奔船F(xiàn)在的龜山，渚”，水中小島也，而龜山附近的鄂渚”，相傳為東湖之中的小島。

三國時(shí)期，東湖曾是劉備、孫權(quán)、曹操進(jìn)行軍事、政治活動的重要場所。東湖沿岸至今還有劉備的郊天臺、曹操廟、關(guān)公卓刀泉、魯肅的白馬冢等古跡。唐代在東湖之濱的洪山修建了佛教寺廟彌陀寺。鄂國公尉遲敬德在洪山建有正心書院。詩仙李白曾在水果湖放鷹，留有放鷹臺遺址。宋代在東湖之濱的洪山建有東巖閣，《東巖閣記》石刻，字跡至今依稀可辨。宋理宗越昀，將隨州大洪山的幽濟(jì)禪寺遷至彌陀寺，并賜寺名為崇寧萬壽神寺”。元代在東湖之濱的洪山建有靈濟(jì)塔，又稱洪山寶塔”。民國期間，在東湖周圍建有不少私家園林。1930年，民族資本家周蒼柏在東湖創(chuàng)設(shè)海光農(nóng)圃，建有游泳池，游泳碼頭，動物園等，是廣大市民娛樂的場所。1949年9月24日，根據(jù)周蒼柏先生意愿，將海光農(nóng)圃作為民族資本接收，并更名為東湖公園。1950年12月2日正式命名為東湖風(fēng)景區(qū)。

東湖風(fēng)景區(qū)屬湖泊型風(fēng)景名勝區(qū)，以大面積自然水景為主題，兼有山丘、園林、建筑，融合濃郁的楚文化地方風(fēng)情，是具有現(xiàn)代精神的國家重要風(fēng)景名勝區(qū)。

東湖和那些源遠(yuǎn)流長的歷史名湖相比，似乎沒有受過更多的文人吟詠，沒有留下什么帝王樓臺，一切天然。如果將那些名湖”比作濃妝的貴婦，東湖就是一位清純的少女。漫漫歷史中的東湖，是水鄉(xiāng)澤國中默默無聞的一分子，是未經(jīng)雕琢的和氏璧”。當(dāng)我們拂去歷史的灰塵，揭開她的面紗，才發(fā)現(xiàn)她集天地之靈氣，吸日月之精華，天然去雕飾，麗質(zhì)天生成。經(jīng)過武漢人民對她的精心打扮，終于在千湖之省”的荊楚大地脫穎而出，似一支獨(dú)秀的出水芙蓉亭亭玉立。東湖的水，水碧如藍(lán);東湖的山，山青如黛。放眼望去，遠(yuǎn)山、近水、藍(lán)天、碧波，還有水際線，林冠線，由深到淺、由濃到淡，構(gòu)成了一幅層次豐富的畫面。東湖四季景色各異。春天，春雨綿綿，薄霧漫漫，長堤臥波，吞煙吐浪。層層遠(yuǎn)山嫩于青玉，蕩蕩垂柳軟似鵝黃，蘭花櫻花競相爭艷。夏天，粉荷垂露，盈盈欲滴，碧波萬頃中，飛舟曳銀擊水，白帆千點(diǎn)逐浪。秋天，秋山蒼涼，在水一方，疏枝殘陽，漁歌唱晚。時(shí)聞群鴉叢林，偶見白鷗劃清波。冬天，寒天蒼蒼，湖水茫茫，冬天如睡，薄雪似霜。洪山寶塔留余影，寶通禪寺縈晚鐘。

總之東湖是無法用言語名狀的，她總是有一種抒情般的韻律，令人留連忘返，回味無窮。東湖雖是以自然山水為風(fēng)景主題，但人工園林也為其增色不少。東湖西北岸以庭園樓榭為主。這里地勢平坦，丘崗點(diǎn)綴，沿湖池杉，成林成片，蔚為壯觀。行吟閣、屈原紀(jì)念館、瀕湖畫廊、可竹軒、聽濤軒等庭院樓榭，隱現(xiàn)其間。東南岸以山林野趣及植物花卉專類園見長。磨山六峰林碧如障，封都山上楓紅似火。八里磨山如水中半島，十多個(gè)植物花卉專類園錯(cuò)落其間。梅園、櫻花園是以植物為主的園林。朔風(fēng)歲寒，萬木蕭索之際，紅梅齊開，漫無際涯，暗香浮動。

第四篇：黃鶴樓日語導(dǎo)游詞

黃鶴樓（こうかくろう）江南の三大樓の一つの黃鶴樓で、以前は、湖北武昌蛇山の黃鶴磯の頂上にあり、もともと辛氏が開設(shè)したホテルである。一道士は彼女への感謝の気持ちで、出発間際に壁に1羽の鶴を描いた。すると、鶴が舞い始めた。それから客は増え、商売繁盛となった。10年が過ぎて、道士はもう1度訪れ、笛を演奏し、黃鶴にまたがると空高く飛んでいった。辛氏は自分を助けてくれた道士に感謝し、その記念に、樓を建て“黃鶴樓”と名前を付けた。黃鶴樓は悠々たる長江に臨んで、雄大で蛇がうずくまったような蛇山の峰、まっすぐにそびえて、光り輝いて美しく、自然が作った全國各地に名を広める観光の景勝地になった。歴代の名士の崔顥、李白、白居易、賈島、陸游、楊慎、張居正など、彼らは、ここへ來て楽しんで、詩を作った。崔費(fèi)偉の《黃鶴樓》の詩は、長い年月、素晴らしい作品として知られ、多くの人は暗唱することができた。この詩のため、多くの人に黃鶴樓に対する懐かしさが生まれ、黃鶴の新樓が落成した后、その容姿は人を元?dú)莞钉堡俊￥饯欷?、とても自然な事だった。黃鶴樓に関してたくさんの感動させる伝說がある。その中の1つの伝說は名を費(fèi)偉と言う人の話で、黃鶴山の中で修行を積み仙人となる。それから黃鶴に乗って升天してしまった。それから人々は費(fèi)偉を懐かしく思い、この黃鶴山の上に黃鶴樓を建筑したという話だ。崔顥の詩はこのことと関系がある、：“昔人既に黃鶴に乗って行く、この地はゆとりある黃鶴樓。黃鶴は行けば戻れず、白い云は千年の間ゆったりと流れ、晴川の漢陽樹はありありとし、芳香草が茂る鸚鵡洲。日暮になると故郷をどこか想い、河辺で霧にかすんだ水面が人を心細(xì)くさせる”と詠っている。古い黃鶴樓は“一般に3層、9丈の2尺、銅頂を合わせると7尺、二つ合わせると99の數(shù)になる。”新樓がとても雄大になり、5層、高さ5メートル、葫蘆形寶の頂を合わせると51.4メートル、古樓に比べて約20メートル高い。古樓の1番下の層は，“幅15メートル”、新樓の1番下の層は幅30メートルだ。そのため、黃鶴樓は修復(fù)ではんなく、再建なのだ。古樓のいくつかの特色は殘し、更に現(xiàn)代の人々の美的感覚の変化に基づき設(shè)計(jì)している。-----------------------------黃鶴樓は湖北省武昌市の蛇山に位置し、黃色い鶴に乗った仙人がここを通ったという伝說からこの名前がつきました?！柑煜陆^景」という美稱もあり、湖南省の岳陽樓、江西省の滕王閣と并んで「江南三大名樓」とされています。黃鶴樓は三國時(shí)期の呉の時(shí)代にあたる黃武2年（西暦223年）、當(dāng)初は軍事目的で建設(shè)されました。呉の孫権が「以武治國而昌（武をもって國を治め繁栄させる）」（「武昌」もここからきている）を?qū)g現(xiàn)させることを目的とし、城を守り眺望をよくするためのものでした。唐代になり、軍事性質(zhì)から徐々に名所へとその意義が変わり、歴代の文人墨客がこぞってここを訪れ、今もよく知られている詩を殘しました。唐代の詩人?崔顥は伝說の仙人を偲んだ詩「黃鶴樓」で、「昔人已乗黃鶴去、此地空余黃鶴樓。黃鶴一去不復(fù)返、白云千載空悠悠。晴川歴歴漢陽樹、芳草萋萋鸚鵡洲。日暮郷関何処是、煙波江上使人愁」と詠み、この詩は長年にわたって愛され、黃鶴樓の名聲をさらに高めました。唐の永泰元年（765年）までに黃鶴樓はすでに一定の規(guī)模まで拡張されましたが、度重なる戦火であちこちが何度も壊されました。最后の一棟が作られたのは同治7年（1868年）のことで、光緒10年（1884年）に壊されからは補(bǔ)修されていません。1981年10月、黃鶴樓の補(bǔ)修工事がスタートし、85年6月に完成しました。メインの黃鶴樓は同治年間のものをモデルに、現(xiàn)代的な工程を取り入れてさらに大きな規(guī)模で造

成されました。5階建てで庇が銳く反り返りてっぺんには瑠璃瓦がはめこまれ、高さが51.4メートル、底辺の幅は30メートル、各階には大型の壁畫や文物などが配置されています。最下階には広いロビーがあり、正面には大きな陶器制の壁畫「白云黃鶴」が飾られています。2階にある大理石には唐代の閻伯瑾が著名人の逸話を記した「黃鶴樓記」が刻まれ、壁にある2枚の壁畫は、黃鶴樓と武昌の歴史を描いた「孫權(quán)筑城」と三國の著名人とその動きを描いた「周瑜設(shè)宴」です。3階のロビーにある壁畫は、崔顥や李白、白居易など唐?宋代の名人を描いた人物畫で、すべて黃鶴樓を稱える名詩を詠んだ人たちです。メイン棟の周囲には、勝象寶塔、碑廊、山門などの建筑物があり、いずれも獨(dú)特の民族的な雰囲気を備えています。また、蛇山にそびえ立つ白云閣は4階立てで、高さ29.7メートルです。前樓と后閣とで「白云黃鶴」を形づくり、武漢名物になっています。遠(yuǎn)方から眺めた黃鶴樓はまさに鶴が羽を広げて飛んでいるようで、獨(dú)特の美しさを夸っています。
