    tumbles into the Chaoyin Cave and bumps into the rocks inside with a thunderous roar, and looks like a madly gyrating dragon from a bird"s-eye view.

    The Fanyin Cave (Cave of Buddhist Sound) is sandwiched between two steep cliffs of some 100 meters in height. The cave winds its way towards the sea. When the sea swells, the waters pour into the cave with thunderous roars. A stone stair leads from the mountain top to a rock platform built into the cave wall, half way above the bottom with a marvelous view of the sea.

    There are also many oddly-shaped stones, the 20-odd most famous ones of which include Pantuo Stone, the stone of Two Tortoises listening to preaching, and the stone of Sea and Sky Buddhist Kingdom, etc.

    浙江主要景点英文介绍

    The Hupao Spring is located in the side yard of the Huichan Temple (commonly known as the Hupao Temple), which is at the foot of the Baihe Peak (White Crane Peak) of Daci Mountain, five kilometers from Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province. The Hupao Spring takes its name from a legend. According to the legend, an accomplished monk named Huanzhong came and lived here during the 14th year (819) of the Yuanhe reign in the Tang Dynasty (618-907). Later, due to lack of water, the monk planned to leave the temple. One night, he had a dream in which an immortal told him two tigers would move a fountain here. As expected, the next day two mighty tigers from the Hengshan Mountain circled the spot and dug a hole which caused the spring to gush forth -- hence, the name Hupao Spring (Running - Tiger Spring).

The Hupao Spring and the Longjing (Dragon Well) Spring are reputed to be the third spring under heaven.

    浙江主要景点英文介绍

    六和塔坐落在浙江省杭州市钱塘江北岸的月轮峰上。六和塔所在地原来是五代吴

    越国王的南果园,塔始建于北宋开宝三年(970年),是钱弘淑舍园所造,同时

    还建造了塔院,建塔的目的是为了镇压钱塘江的江潮。六和塔塔身共九层,高五

    十多丈,巍峨突起,依陆俯看钱塘。塔的顶层装有明灯,为夜晚航行的船只指路。

    宣和三年(1121年),六和塔毁于兵火,现在保存的砖筑塔身,是南宋绍兴二十六年(1156年)重建的,到乾道元年(1165年)才全部竣工,历时十年。

    六和塔木檐十三层,清光绪二十六年(1900年)重新修建,塔的内部有六层是封闭的,七层与塔身的内部相通,自外及里,塔可分外墙、回廊、内墙和小室四个部分,形成了内外两环。内环是塔心室,外环是厚壁,回廊夹在中间,楼梯置于回廊之间。外墙的外壁,在转角处装设有倚柱,并与塔的木檐相联结。墙身的四面开辟有门,因为墙厚达4.12米,故而进门后,就形成了一条甬道,甬道的两侧凿有壁龛,壁龛的下部做成须弥座。穿甬道而过,里边就是回廊。内墙的四边也辟有门,另外的四边凿有壁龛,相互间隔而成。内墙厚4.20米,故而每个门的门洞内,也形成了甬道,甬道直通塔中心的小室。壁龛的内部镶嵌有《四十二章经》的石刻。中心的小室原来是为了供奉佛像而设的,为仿木建筑,制作讲究。六和塔所有壶门的造型,线条流畅,圆润美观,是南宋时期典型的做法。塔身的第七层和塔刹是元代重修的。

    六和塔中的须弥座上有二百多处砖雕,砖雕的题材丰富,造型生动,有斗奇争妍的石榴、荷花、宝相,展翅飞翔的凤凰、孔雀、鹦鹉,奔腾跳跃的狮子、麒麟,还有昂首起舞的飞仙等等。这些砖雕,与宋代成书的《营造法式》所载十分吻合,是中国古建筑史上珍贵的实物资料。

    六和塔是杭州著名的风景点之一,游人到此,既可欣赏古塔的雄姿,又能领略钱塘江的风光,所以历代有不少的文人墨客作诗咏叹,有诗云:“孤塔凌霄汉,天风面面来。江光秋练净,岚色晓屏开”,真实地描绘了六和塔和钱塘江的风光。

    Pagoda of Six Harmonies

    浙江主要景点英文介绍

    Standing by the Qiantang River in Hangzhou, the Pagoda of Six Harmonies was first constructed in 970 during the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127) by Qian Hongchu, King of the Wuyue State, who ruled the area of today"s Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fujian provinces. The purpose of building the pagoda was to suppress the tidewaters. It had nine storeys and was some 150 meters high. At night lanterns were lit on the pagoda so that ships and boats on the Qiantang River could use it as a navigation tower.

    The pagoda suffered repeated damages over about a thousand years. It was almost completely destroyed by war in 1121. Reconstruction started in 1153 and was completed in 1163. The height of the pagoda was reduced after reconstruction because there were only seven storeys left of the original nine. Major repairs were made again in 1524 during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and in 1735 and 1900 during the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), but these repairs were on the outside eaves only. The brick body of the pagoda remained the same as in the Song Dynasty. Today some Song Dynasty inscriptions can still be found inside the pagoda.

    The extant pagoda is octagonal, with thirteen levels on the exterior but seven levels on the interior. It stands 59.89 meters high, and is one of the tallest pagodas in southern China. The pagoda can be divided into four parts from the exterior to the interior, namely, the outer wall, the zigzag corridor, the inside wall and the little chamber. The corridor in-between connects the exterior with the interior; the winding staircases, linking the corridor parts, lead to the top level. The exterior wall, with a thickness of 4.12 meters, has doors in the four sides. On the two side walls of the entrance connecting the exterior with the interior, there are engraved shrines. The four sides of the interior wall, with a thickness of 4.2 meters, also have doors.

    In the center of the pagoda is the little chamber which was originally used to place Buddhist Statues. Each storey has a square room, with ceiling supported by brackets.

    In the pagoda there are more than two hundred sites of brick carvings, which feature a wide range of motifs, including megranate, lotus, phoenix, peacock, parrot, lion, kylin and so on. These brick carvings are rare material proofs of Chinese ancient architectures.

    The Six Harmonies Pagoda, as a state-level cultural site, has been under the state protection since 1961. It is one of the famous scenic spots in Hangzhou City. Commanding a spectacular view of the surging Qiantang River, the pagoda presents a quiet image of age-old majesty. Looking out from the top of the pagoda, sightseers can see as far as the misty horizon, enjoying the unforgettable, breathtaking scenery..

    优美、恬静。这里小桥流水人家的小镇格局与江南诸多水乡名镇没有太大

    的差别,但面积之大和桥多、弄多、廊棚多的特色,构成了西塘与众不同

    的风格。难能可贵的是,这里没有其它旅游景点的

    浙江主要景点英文介绍

    嘈杂和商气,原汁原味的小镇景观,令游人在清静

    中倍感惬意。

    蕴涵西塘建筑文化个性特色的廊棚,是小镇旅游最耀眼的一道风景。它的形成源于沿

    河店家为方便水乡村民在傍河的街边停船购物,做农副产品交易而各自搭建的,因店

    与店相连,各家所建的廊棚也就连了起来,像一条带子紧紧地缠绕在小镇的河边,廊

    棚下的石板路因此成了既能挡风避雨又能遮阳的走廊。西塘有廊棚千余米,主要分布在朝南埭、北栅街一带,和自行车同行,别有一番情趣;临街人家澹泊的平民生活,诉说着西塘人的淳朴和善良。驻足廊檐下,可见对岸粉墙高耸,桅篙林立;河上绿波荡漾,扁舟矣欠乃,桥影摇曳,似诗如画,令人陶醉。

    西塘民居多建于明清两代,弄堂作为市镇及民居建设的一个部分保存下来。西塘有长短不一的弄堂122条,百米以上的有5条,其中名气最大的就数石皮弄了。石皮弄位于小镇西街王姓家族宅第种福堂西侧,全长68米,最宽处1米,最窄的地方仅80公分。该弄路面由166块厚仅3公分的条石铺成,要将花岗岩凿成如此之薄实非易事,石皮弄也因此得名。石皮弄两侧高墙因年代久远,墙面已显斑驳,这条静谧幽长的小弄,犹如一条穿越历史的隧道,让走过它的人,感受到西塘的古朴和丰厚的文化积淀。

    西塘是一个不足2平方公里的小镇,有9条河流在此交汇,把小镇分割成8个板块,15座风格各异的桥承担着把这块沃土连成一体的重任,桥自然成了西塘引人入胜的景观。这15座桥,最古老的要数清康熙年间动工兴建的卧龙桥。

    Xitang

    浙江主要景点英文介绍

    Xitang is an ancient town in the north of Jiashan County. It has a peaceful and beautiful entironment, with flat terrain and netted rivers. It features huge area and a large number of bridges, lanes, and ceilinged corridors. What"s more, other than the noisy commercial places of interest, Xitang offers pure scenery of a little town, making the tourists feel quiet and cozy.

    Ceilinged corridors are the most special scene in Xitang construction. It was originally built to make convenience for the residents trading on boats by the side of the rivers. Each shop has a ceiling over the stone-plank road in front of its own house, and the ceilings connect with one another to form corridors, the longest of which is 1,300 meters, like a silk belt winding along the river. The ceilinged corridors are the main places at the Chaonanli and Beizhalan Street. Riding a bicycle along the ceilinged corridors, one will have a special sentiment. Standing under the ceilings, looking at the white walls at the other bank, looking at the masts and the green ripples, boats and the shadows of the bridges, one will revel in the beauty of the scenery.

    The residential buildings were mostly built in the Ming and Qing dynasties. There are a total of 122 lanes, long and short, wide and narrow. Five of them are longer than 100 meters. Among all the lanes, Shipi Lane is the most famous. It is situated at the west side of Zhongfu Hall in the West Street, with a total length of 68 meters. The lane is about 1 meter at the widest but the narrowest point is only 80 centimeters. It is paved with 166 stone planks which are only

    3 centimeters thick, which is really hard to be chisel from the granite. That is why it is called Shipi (the skin of the stone) Lane. Walking through the long quiet lane with stained tall walls is just like traveling through the town"s long history in a spatio-temporal tunnel.

    Xitang is a little town with an area of less than 2 sq. km. Nine rivers that run through the town divide it into eight parts, with 15 bridges of various shapes and structure connecting the parts, which becomes the enchanting sight attracting visitors far and near. Among the bridges, the oldest is the Sleeping Dragon Bridge built in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).

    保国寺为全国重点文物保护单位。Baoguo Temple

    The Baoguo Temple lies in a valley of Lingshan Mountain in the suburb of Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province.

    浙江主要景点英文介绍

    The temple is built on a slope. Arranged along the central axis that extends northward are the Heavenly King Hall, the Main Hall, the Hall of Goddess of Mercy and the Sutra Attic, with the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower on the two wings and other buildings. It has the flavor of traditional Chinese architecture and shows a distinction between different structures. In front of the hall, there are springs and ponds, rippling all year round. Following the steps from the foot of the mountain, you can reach the Baoguo Temple.

    The Main Hall, built in the 6th year (1013) during the Dazhong Xiangfu reign of the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127), is three bays in width and depth, and is in the layout of a vertical rectangle to let more disciples express their homage. In the front, three sunk panels are ingeniously installed, demonstrating the fine and rare architectural techniques at that time. The sunk panels are at a low position, while the place for the statue of Buddha is high and spacious, forming striking contrast. This well sets off an atmosphere of solemnity and superiority of the Buddha.

    The Main Hall employs wooden square blocks inserted between the top of a column and a crossbeam in several places, along the outer eaves, on columns and crossbeams. The columns in the hall are made with ingenuity, that around a relatively small column, some long curved pieces of wood are wrapped to make the column in the shape of arris. In this way, it not only saves materials, but also makes the appearance look more gorgeous. The hall refrains from using flashy ornaments and focuses on its practicality. It can effectively reduce damages caused by earthquakes.

    With a history of more than 960 years, the temple is a rare example of wooden structure construction in the south area of the Yangtze River. The fact that it is perfectly preserved under the rainy

    and moist conditions shows forcefully its reasonable design and superb techniques.

    It serves as a significant evidence for the research on wooden-structure constructions in the early period of the Northern Song Dynasty.

    The temple is surrounded in secluded mountains and dense forests as well as picturesque scenery.

    Tianyi Pavilion

    The Tianyi Pavilion is located in the west of Yuehu Lake in Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province.

    First built by Fan Qin, a high-ranking official equivalent to today"s national defense minister, during Emperor Jia Jing"s reign in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). The Tianyi Pavilion Library is the oldest well-preserved private library in China today. It is a combination of culture, social studies, history and art.

    Fan Qin loved collecting ancient books all his life, and his collection of books reached 70,000. To protect the books, Fan Qin made strict family rules that all the posterity should abide by the teachings of the deceased, Never discard the books, and never take the books away. However, many books disappeared as the years passed by. In the thirteenth year (1808) of the Jiaqing reign of the Qing Dynasty, books in the pavilion totaled to 4,049 in more than 53,000 volumes. During the Opium War, British aggressors plundered many books and sold them to French missionaries and paper mills. After many accidentals, books in the pavilion merely totaled 1,591 in 13,038 volumes in 1940. After the founding of the People"s Republic of China, special management departments were set up to protect the Tianyi Pavilion. More than 3,000 volumes of missing books were found.

    Now, the Tianyi Pavilion keeps a large collection of about 300,000 ancient books, among which 80,000 are rare copies including the woodcut copies and handwritten copies of the Song and Ming Dynasties. They are rich sources of local chronicles and imperial examinations and are precious materials for the study of history, people, social customs and habits. The Tianyi Pavilion Library is called the "Book City of South China". The Tianyi Pavilion is not only world famous for its wide collection of books, but also for its unique architecture and elegant landscape.

    The Tianyi Pavilion has a flush gable roof, and is six bays wide and deep, with a corridor extending from the front to the back. In front of the pavilion is a pond that stores water for fireproof. Fan Wenguang, Fan Qin"s great-grandson, rebuilt the pavilion by laying rockery around the lake, building kiosks and bridges, planting flowers and grass in the fourth year (1665) of the Kangxi reign in the Qing Dynasty. The whole pavilion and the milieu feature the style of private gardens south of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. During its rebuilding in 1933, the Zunjing Pavilion of Confucian Temple in Ningbo was moved to the backyard. Steles from the Song (960-1279) to Qing Dynasties

    in Ningbo City were also put there. These steles and the Zunjing Pavilion are called the Stele Forest in Mingzhou. 杭州灵隐寺

    飞来峰 Sculptures on Peak Flying From Afar

    The sculptures on the Peak Flying From Afar are located in front of the Linyin Temple in Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province.

    The Peak Flying From Afar is a limestone peak over 209 meters in height. On the peak there are many grotesque rocks among which scattered about 300 sculptures built from the Five Dynasties to the Yuan Dynasty (907-1368), making it the largest group of sculptures in Zhejiang Province. There remain more than 10 sculptures built in the Five Dynasties, all of which are the Three Saint of the West from the Jingtu School (Pure Land School) of Buddhism. They are situated on the top of the peak and at the entrance of the Qinglin Cave (Cave of Green Woods). On the west side of the entrance to the Qinglin Cavern is a niche of sculptures of Goddess of Mercy (Guanyin in Chinese), Amitabha (Mituo in Chinese) and Shizhi, which was donated by the Teng Shaozong in the first year (951) of the Houzhou Dynasty. It is the earliest niche with inscription on sculptures on the Peak Flying From Afar. The three sculptures in the niche all sit on high lotus seats and are decorated with flame line behind the body, which is a good example of typical late Tang Dynasty (618-907) style.

    There are about 200 statues made in the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127), which is the largest in quantity. In the Jinguan Cave (Cave of Golden Light) are the sculptures of Small Arhats and in the Yuru Cave (Cave of Jade Milk) are the Sixth Founders, which are comparatively large in size and made in the fourth year (1026) of Tiansheng reign, with relatively antique style. On the cliff beside the south entrance of Qinglin Cave is an embossment made in the first year (1022) of Qianxin reign and was named "the congregation of the Buddhists in Nusena". Its carving is very skillful, the structure is complete and the characters are vivid. On the south side of Lengquan Brook, there lies a sculpture of Maitreya made in the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279), with thick eyebrows, open eyes

    and a smile on his face, and seating with his belly naked. The sculpture is surrounded by Eighteen Arhats, built along the hill in harmony and with their respective gestures and expressions.

    There are about 100 sculptures made in the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), 19 of them have clear inscriptions. The sculptures are exquisitely made and well-preserved. These statues scatter on the south side of the Lengquan Brook and the cliff around the Qinglin Cave and Yuru Cave . The Buddha figures have pointed and twisted bun and wear the shirt slantingly, leaving the right chest and arm naked; while the Bodhisattva figures are decorated with jewelry crown, wear thin silk or leave their upper body naked, with comely faces and slim statures. In addition to the traditional style of the Tang and Song Dynasties (618-1279), the sculpting had adopted some artistic characteristics of other ethnic groups such as Tibetan and Mongolian.

    The grotto art in Central China had declined since the late Tang Dynasty and the sculptures on the Peak Flying From Afar made in the Five Dynasty, Song Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty filled up for this blankness. In particular, the sculptures made in the Yuan Dynasty, featuring brief carving and smooth lines, occupied an important place in the history of Chinese ancient sculptures.

    Mausoleum of General Yue Fei 岳坟

    浙江主要景点英文介绍

    stone figures in Mausoleum of General Yue Fei

    The Mausoleum of General Yue Fei was located in Yue Fei"s temple at the south foot of Xixia Mountain of Hangzhou City in Zhejiang Province.

    Yue Fei (1103-1142) was born in Tangyin of Xiangzhou (in today"s Henan Province). He was a great national hero of the Southern Song dynasty (1127-1279) who distinguished himself in battles against northern invaders. During the 12th century, when Jurchen invaders from the north attacked China, General Yue Fei was commander of the Song armies. His attempt to push north and recover all the lost Chinese territory was opposed, however, by a peace party within the capital headed by the minister Qin Hui, who believed that further prosecution of the war would be too costly. Qin Hui"s faction proved more influential, and in 1141 Yue Fei was recalled to the Song court and imprisoned. Later he was executed after being framed by Qin Hui.

    In 1163, Song Emperor Gaozong exonerated Yue Fei and had his corpse reburied at the present site. In 1221, a memorial temple of Yue Fei was built here with statue of Yue Fei enshrined inside.

    The memorial temple has been destroyed and rebuilt for several times. The present structure was the product of the restoration in 1923. It contains a 4.54-meter-high statue of Yue Fei, which shows him armed with a sword in the left hand, seemingly prepared to fight at all times. A calligraphy work of Yue Fei reading "return the mountains and rivers to us" is hung on the wall, being a reference to his patriotism and resistance to the Jurchen. In the two side halls of the temple are 120 tablets; the tablets are engraved with Yue Fei"s poems as well as eulogies to him by noted figures.

    To the right of memorial temple is the mausoleum of Yue Fei. Four iron statues: Qin Hui and his wife, Zhangjun and Mo Qixie are kneeling in front of the tomb, all cursed and spat by visitors for their guilt. On both sides of the tomb are six stone figures, two horses, two tigers and two goats, symbolizing the guards of Yue Fei.

    Hemudu Site河姆渡

    The Hemudu Site is located in Humudu Village in Luojiang Town of Yuyao County, Zhejiang Province.

    In the summer of 1973, the Hemudu Site was discovered accidentally by farmers of Hemudu Village when they built drainage facilities in the northeast of the village. The renowned Hemudu site, covering an area of about 40,000 square meters, is an important village site in the New Stone Age, with cultural relics of about 4 meters thick. The site has four cultural layers overlapped. According the measurement of C14, the fourth layer dates back to 6,000 and 7,000 years ago.

    Rows of wooden poles and board stakes were orderly arranged along the small hill. This was a railing-style construction, with large stake of 23 meters long and 7 meters deep and the front porch about 1.3 meters deep. Most of these wooden poles had mortises and tenons, the earliest ones that have ever been found in China, indicating that such kind of techniques were adopted then.

    A large amount of rice was unearthed in the site. The well-preserved rice, including indica rice and japonica rice, was proved to be cultivated rice. The large amount of well-preserved rice with a wide distribution area made the Hemudu Site a rare Neolithic site in China and wrote a new page in the archaeological history of the Neolithic Age with the first-time discovery of indica rice. Other objects unearthed included tools used in agricultural production and processing, such as spade-like bone plough, wooden box, bone sickle, and timber. These proved that agricultural production had become a main sector in local area 6,000 and 7,000 years ago. The discovery of rice in the Hemudu Site has another significant meaning. People originally believed that India was the origin of Asian rice, while the discovery in Hemudu proved that rice unearthed there was over 3000 years older than that discovered in India.

    Also unearthed in the Hemudu Site was a large amount of animal bones, including man-feed pig, dog, buffalo, wild deer, red elk, river deer and bear as well as some extinct species such as elephant and rhinoceros. These bones provided important data to the study of weather changes in ancient times and the beginning of primitive stockbreeding.

    The Hemudu Culture had a colorful primitive art. Pottery wares were decorated with animal and plant patterns. Other relics included pig, sheep and human head figures made of pottery, and bone-enchased and ivory-enchased objects. The unearthed bone whistle can still make sounds.

    The discovery of the Hemudu Site bears proof that as early as 6,000 and 7,000 years ago, there appeared quite developed primitive culture in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River that is believed to be one of the cradles of the ancient Chinese civilization.
