　　故宫英文导游词 篇1

　　This is the palace museum; also knon as the Purple Forbidden City . It is the largest and most ell reserved imperial residence in China today. Under Ming Emperor Yongle, construction began in 1406. It took 14 years to build the Forbidden City. The first ruler ho actually lived here as Ming Emperor Zhudi. For five centuries thereafter, it continued to be the residence of 23 successive emperors until 1911 hen Qing Emperor Puyi as forced to abdicate the throne. In 1987, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization recognized the Forbidden City as a orld cultural legacy .

　　It is believed that the Palace Museum, or Zi Jin Cheng （Purple Forbidden City）， got its name from astronomy folklore, The ancient astronomers divided the constellation s into groups and centered them around the Ziei Yuan （North Star ） . The constellation containing the North Star as called the Constellation of Heavenly God and star itself as called the purple palace. Because the emperor as supposedly the son of the heavenly gods, his central and dominant position ould be further highlighted the use of the ord purple in the name of his residence. In folklore, the term “an eastern purple cloud is drifting ” became a metaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud as seen drifting eastard immediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher, LaoZi, to the Hanghu Pass. Here, purple is associated ith auspicious developments. The ord jin （forbidden） is self-explanatory as the imperial palace as heavily guarded and off-explanatory as the imperial palace as heavily guarded and off-limits to ordinary people.

　　The red and yello used on the palace alls and roofs are also symbolic. Red represents happiness, good fortune and ealth. Yello is the color of the earth on the Loess Plateau, the original home of the Chinese people. Yello became an imperial color during the Tang dynasty, hen only members of the royal family ere alloed to ear it and use it in their architecture.

　　The Forbidden City is rectangular in shape. It is 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meter ide from east est. It has 9,900 rooms under a total roof area 150,000 square meters. A 52-meter-ide-moat encircles a 9. 9-meter—high all hich encloses the complex. Octagon —shaped turret s rest on the four corners of the all. There are four entrances into the city: the Meridian Gate to the south, the Shenu Gate （Gate of Military Proess ） to the north, and the Donghua Gate （Eastern Floery Gate） to the north, and the Xihua Gate （Western Floery Gate ） to the est, the Donghua （Eastern Floery Gate） to the east.

　　Manpoer and materials throughout the country ere used to build the Forbidden City. A total of 230,000 artisans and one million laborers ere employed. White Marble as quarried from fangshan county of Beijing, Colored marble from Mount Pan in Jixian County in Hebei Province. Granite as quarried in Quyang County in Hebei Province. Paving blocks ere fired in kilns in Suzhou in southern China. Bricks and scarlet pigmentation used on the palatial alls came from linqing in Shandong Province. Timber as cut, processed and hauled from the northestern and southern regions.

　　The structure in front of us is the Meridian Gate. It is the main entrance to the forbidden City. It is also knos as Wufenglou （Five-Phoenix Toer）。 Ming emperors held lavish banquets here on the 15th day of the first month of the Chinese lunar year in honor of their counties. They also used this place for punishing officials by flogging them ith sticks.

　　Qing emperors used this building to announce the beginning of the ne year. Qing Emperor Qianlong changed the original name of this announcement ceremony from ban li （announcement of calendar） to ban shuo （announcement of ne moon ） to avoid coincidental association ith then Emperors another name, Hongli, hich as considered a taboo at that time. Qing Dynasty emperors also used this place to hold audience and for other important ceremonies. For example, hen the imperial army returned victoriously from the battlefield, it as here that the Emperor presided over the ceremony to accept prisoners of ar.

　　（After entering the Meridian Gate and standing in front of the Five Marble Bridges on Golden Water River ）

　　No e are inside the Forbidden City. Before e start our tour, I ould like to briefly introduce you to the architectural patterns before us. To complete this solemn, magnificent and palatial complex, a variety of buildings ere arranged on a north-south axis , and 8-kilometer-long invisible line that has become an inseparable part of the City of Beijing. The Forbidden City covers roughly one –third of this central axis. Most of the important buildings in the Forbidden City ere arranged along this line. The design and arrangement of the palaces reflect the solemn dignity of the royal court and rigidly –stratified feudal system .

　　The Forbidden City is divided into an outer and an inner count. We are no standing on the southernmost part of the outer count. In front of us lies the Gate of supreme Harmony . The gate is guarded by a pair of bronze lion s, symbolizing imperial poer and dignity. The lions ere the most exquisite and biggest of its kind. The one on the east playing ith a ball is a male, and ball is said to represent state unity. The other one is a female. Underneath one of its fore clas is a cub that is considered to be a symbol of perpetual imperial succession . The inding brook before us is the Golden Water River. It functions both as decoration and fire control. The five bridges spanning the river represent the five virtues preached by Confucius: benevolence, righteousness, rites, intelligence and fidelity . The river takes the shape of a bo and the north-south axis is its arro. This as meant to sho that the Emperors ruled the country on behalf of God.

　　（In front of the Gate of Supreme Harmony）

　　The Forbidden City consists of an outer courtyard and an inner enclosure. The out count yard covers a vast space lying beteen the Meridian Gate and the Gate of Heavenly Purity （乾清门） . The “three big halls” of Supreme Harmony, Complete Harmony （中和） and Preserving Harmony （保和） constitute the center of this building group. Flanking them in bilateral symmetry are to groups of palaces: Wenhua （Prominent Scholars） and Wuying （Brave Warriors）。 The three great halls are built on a spacious “H”-shaped, 8-meter-high, triple marble terrace, Each level of the triple terrace is taller than the on belo and all are encircled by marble balustrades carved ith dragon and phoenix designs. There are three carved stone staircases linking the three architectures. The hall of supreme Harmony is also the tallest and most exquisite ancient ooden-structured mansion in all of China. From the palace of Heavenly Purity northard is hat is knon as the inner court, hich is also built in bilaterally symmetrical patterns. In the center are the Palace of Heavenly Purity , the Hall of Union （交泰殿） and Palace of Earthly Tranquility（ 坤宁宫 ）， a place here the Emperors lived ith their families and attended to state affairs. Flanking these structures are palaces and halls in hich concubines and princes lived. There are also three botanical garden s ithin the inner count, namely, the imperial Garden , Caning garden and Qianglong garden. An inner Golden Water River flos eastardly ithin the inner court. The brook inds through three minor halls or palaces and leads out of the Forbidden City. It is spanned by the White Jade Bridge . The river is lined ith inding, marble –carved balustrades. Most of the structures ithin the Forbidden City have yello glazed tile roof s.

　　Aside from giving prominence to the north-south axis, other architectural methods ere applied to make every group of palatial structures unique in terms of terraces, roofs, mythical monster s perching on the roofs and colored, draing patterns. With these, the grand contour and different hierarchic spectrum of the complex ere strengthened. Folklore has it that there are altogether 9,999 room-units in the Forbidden City. Since Paradise only has 10,000 rooms, the Son of Heaven on earth cut the number by half a room. It is also rumoured that this half –room is located to the est of the Wenyuange Pavilion （imperial library） . As a matter of fact, although the Forbidden City has more than 9,000 room-units, this half-room is nonexistent. The Wenyuange Pavilion is a library here “Si Ku Quan Shu ”- Chinas first comprehensive anthology-as stored.

　　（After alking past the Gate of Supreme Harmony）

　　Ladies and Gentlemen, the great hall e are approaching is the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the biggest and tallest of its kind in the Forbidden City. This structure covers a total building space of 2,377 square meters, and is knon for its upturned, multiple counterpart eaves. The Hall of Supreme Harmony sits on a triple “H”-shaped marble terrace is 8 meters high and linked by staircases. The staircase on the ground floor has 21 steps hile the middle and upper stairays each have 9.

　　The construction of the Hall of Supreme Harmony began in 1406. It burned don three times and as severely damaged once during a mutiny. The existing architecture as built during the Qing Dynasty. On the corners of the eaves a line of animal-nail s ere usually fastened to the tiles. These animal-nails ere later replace ith mythical animals to ard off evil spirits. There are altogether 9 such fasteners on top of this hall. The number nine as regarded by the ancients to be the largest numeral accessible to man and to hich only the emperors ere entitled.

　　There as a total of 24 successive emperors during the Ming and Qing dynasties ho ere enthroned here. The hall as also used for ceremonies hich marked other great occasions: the Winter Solstice , The Chinese Lunar Ne Year, the Emperors birthday, conferral of the title of empress, the announcement of ne las and policies, and dispatches of generals to ar. On such occasions, the Emperor ould hold audience for his court officials and receive their tributes.

　　This area is called the Hall of Supreme Harmony Square, hich covers a total of 30,000 square meters, Without a single tree or plant groing here, this place inspires visitors to feel its solemnity and grandeur . In the middle of the square there is a carriageay that as reserved for the Emperor. On both sides of the road the ground bricks ere laid in a special ay seven layers lengthise and eight layers crossise, making up fifteen layers in all. The purpose of this as to prevent anyone from tunneling his ay into the palace. In the count yard there are iron vats for storing ater to fight fires. In the hole complex there are altogether 308 ater vat s. In intertime, charcoal as burned underneath the vats to keep the ater from freezing. Why so vast a square? It as designed to impress people ith the halls grandeur and vastness. Imagine the folloing scene. Under the clear blue sky, the yello glazed tiles shimmered as the cloud-like layers of terrace, coupled ith the curling veil of burning incense, transformed the hall of supreme Harmony into a fairyland. Whenever major ceremonies ere held, the glazed, crane-shaped candleholder s inside the hall ould be it, and incense and pine branches burnt in front of the hall. When the Emperor appeared, drums ere beaten and musical instrument played. Civilian officials and generals ould kneel don in submission.

　　The last Qing emperor Puyi assumed the throne in 1908, at the age of three, His father carried him to the throne. At the start of the coronation, the sudden drum-beating and loud music caught the young emperor unprepared. He as so scared that he kept crying and shouting, “I dont ant to stay here. I ant to go home.” His father tried to soothe him, saying, “Itll all soon be finished. Itll all soon be finished” The ministers present at the event considered this incident inauspicious. Coincidentally, the Qing dynasty collapsed three years later and there ith concluded Chinas feudal system that had lasted for more than 2,000 years.

　　（On the stone terrace of the Hall of Supreme Harmony）

　　This is a bronze incense burner. In it incense made of sandalood ould be burnt on important occasions. There are altogether 18 incense burner s, representing all of the provinces under the rule of the Qing monarchs. On either side of the Hall, 4 bronze ater-filled vats ere placed in case of fire. Next to the terrace on either side, there is a bronze crane and tortoise, symbols of longevity. This copper-cast grain measure is called “jialiang（ 嘉量 ）。” It served as the national standard during the Qing dynasty. It as meant to sho that the imperial ruler ere just and open to rectification . On the other side there is a stone sundial , an ancient timepiece. The jialiang and the sundial ere probably meant to sho hat the Emperor represented: that he as the only person ho should possess the standards of both measure and time.

　　In the very forefront of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, there are 12 scarlet, round pillars supporting the roof. The hall is 63 meters from east to est and 37 meters from north to south. It is 35 meters in height. In front of this architecture, there stands a triple terrace ith five staircases leading up to the main entrance. It has 40 gold doors （金扉） and 16 gold-key indos（ 金锁窗 ） ith colored draings on the pillars and beams. In the middle of the hall, a throne carved ith 9 dragons sits on a 2-meter-high platform. Behind the throne there is a golden screen（ 金漆屏风 ） and in front of it, there is an imperial desk. The flanks are decorated ith elephants, Luduan （a legendary beast）， cranes, and incense barrels. The elephant carries a vase on its back that holds five cereals （i. e. rice, to kinds of millet, heat and beans）， hich as considered a symbol of prosperity. As ancient legend has it that Luduan can travel 18,000 li （9,000 kilometers ） in one day and knos all languages and dialects. Only to a ise adjust monarch ill this beast be a guardian.

　　The Hall of Supreme Harmony is also popularly knon as Jinluan Dian （gold bell hall or the throne hall ）。 The floor of the hall is laid ith bricks that turn it into a smooth, fine surface as if ater has been sprinkled on it. The so-called golden brick, in fact, has nothing to do ith gold. Reserved exclusively for the construction of the royal court, it as made in a secretive, and complex ay, and, hen struck, sounds like the clink of a gold bar. Each brick as orth the market price of one dan （or one hectoliter） of rice. The hall is supported by a total of 72 thick pillars. Of these, 6 are carved in dragon patterns and painted ith gold and surround the throne. Above the very center of this hall there is a zaojing, or covered ceiling , hich is one of the Specialities of Chinas ancient architecture. In the middle of the ceiling is a design of a dragon playing ith a ball inlaid ith peals. This copper ball, hollo inside and covered ith mercury, is knon as the Xuanyuan Mirror and is thought to be made by Xuanyuan, a legendary monarch dating back to remote antiquity. The placing of the caisson above the throne is meant to suggest that all of Chinas successive emperors are Xuanyuan s descendants and hereditary heirs. No you might have noticed that the Xuanyuan mirror is not directly above the throne. Why? It is rumored that Yuan Shikai, a self-acclaimed arlord-turned emperor moved the throne further back because he as afraid that the mirror might fall on him. In 1916 hen Yuan Shikai became emperor, he removed the original throne ith a Western-style, high-back chair. After the foundation of the Peoples Republic of China in 1949 the throne as found in a shabby furniture arehouse. It repaired and returned to the hall.

　　（Leading the tourist to the bronze vats either on the east or the est）

　　the ater vats in front of the palaces or house ere called “menhai ,” or sea before the door by the ancient Chinese. They believed that ith a sea by the door, fire could not reak havoc. The vats served both as a decoration and as a fire extinguisher. They ere kept full of ater all year round.

　　During the Qing Dynasty, they ere altogether 308 vats in the palace enclosure. They ere made of gilt bronze or iron. Of course, the gilt bronze vats ere of the best quality. When the allied forces （Britain, Germany, France, Russia, the United States, Italy, Japan and Austria） invaded Beijing in 1900 under the pretext of suppressing the Boxer Rebellion, the invaders ransacked the imperial compound and scraped the gold off the vats ith their bayonets. During the Japanese occupation of Beijing, many vats ere trucked aay by the Japanese to be made into bullets.

　　（In front of the Hall of Complete Harmony）

　　The square architecture before us is called the Hall of Complete Harmony. It served as an antechamber . The Emperor came here to meet ith his countiers and add his final touches to the prayers hich ould be read at the ancestral Temple. The seeds, snoers and prayer intended for spring soing ere also examined here. The to Qing sedan chairs here on display ere used for traveling ithin the palace during the reign of Emperor Qianlong.

　　（In front of the hall f Preserving Harmony）

　　This is the Hall of Preserving Harmony. During the Qing Dynasty, banquets ere held here on Ne Years eve in honour of Mongolian and Northestern Chinas xingjiang princes and ranking officials. The Emperor also dinned here ith his ne son-in-la on the edding day. Imperial examinations ere also held here once every three years. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, there ere three levels of exams: the county and prefectural level, the provincial level and national level. The national exam as presided over by the emperor. The civil service exam in ancient China started during the Han Dynasty. It served the purpose of recruiting Confucian scholar s to the ministers and high officials. During the Tang and Qing dynasties reinstituted this ancient system. Once every three years, three hundred scholars from all over the country came to Beijing and took exams for three day and night. This system as abolished in 1905.

　　（Behind the hall of preserving harmony）

　　this is the largest stone carving in the palace. It is 16. 73 meters long, 3. 07 meters ide and 1. 7 meters thick. It eighs about 200 tons. The block as quarried in Fangshan County, roughly 70 kilometers aay. To transport such a huge block to Beijing, laborers dug ells along the roadside half a kilometer apart, and used the groundater to make a road of ice in the inter. Rolling blocks ere used in the summer. In 1760, Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty ordered the carving of the existing cloud and dragon design in place of the old one hich dated back to the Ming Dynasty.

　　Note : From here, the tour can be conducted via three different routes: a estern route （Route A）， a central route （Route B） or an eastern route （Route C） . The commentary for each follos.

　　Route A

　　Ladies and Gentlemen:

　　You have seen the three main halls of the Forbidden City. No I d like to sho you around the hall of mental cultivation and the imperial garden. The hall of mental cultivation is situated is in the estern part of the innermost enclosure and is symmetrical to Fengxian （enshrinement of forebears） Hall in the east. This hall as built during the Ming Dynasty. IT is a H-shaped structure consisting of an antechamber and a main building. The hall is surrounded by corridors. In front of the hall is the Office of Privy Council.

　　Before Emperor Kangxi of Qing the Dynasty came to poer the Hall of Heavenly Purity served as the living quarter of the emperors. Emperor Yongzheng chose to live in this hall and attended to every day state affairs from here. For the sake of protecting cultural relics, this hall is not open to the public. You can have a look at the inside from the door. The central hall as the audience chamber here the emperor read memorials, granted audience to officials and summoned his minsters for consultation. The estern chamber of the hall as here the emperor read reports and discussed military and political affairs. The hall consists of many inner rooms and is decorated ith images of Buddha and miniature pagodas. On the screen all there hangs a picture of to emperors in the Han costume. In a southern room there three rare calligraphic scrolls, hence the name of the room “Sanxitang” （Room of Three Rare Treasures） . The room on the eastern side is of historical interest because it as here that Empress Doager Cixi usurped poer and made decisions on behalf of the young emperor. A bamboo curtain as used to separate them.

　　Empress Doage Cixi as born in 1835 in Luan Prefecture of shanxi province. Shes of Manchurian nationality and her father as a provincial governor from south China. When she as 17 years old, she as selected to become a concubine of Emperor Xianfeng and moved into the Forbidden City.

When the emperor Xianfeng passed aay in the summer of 1861, her son ascended the throne and the title of Cixi, meaning “Holy Mother” , as conferred upon her and she became the Empress Doager. In that same year Empress Doager Cixi carried out a count coup detat and ruled behind the scenes ith another empress doager, Cian, for 48 years. She passed aay in 1908 at the age of 73. It as in reference to this situation that the term “attending to state affairs behind a bamboo curtain ” developed. In 1912, Empress doager Longyu declared the abdication of the last Qing emperor Puyi. They ere alloed to remain in the Forbidden City for the next 13 years. The royal family as forced to move out permanently in 1924.

The ancient Chinese regarded 9 as the largest numeral and the dragon as an auspicious beast. The 9 dragons are different in color and posture and all are made of glazed tiles. Interestingly a piece of the third dragon from the left is made of ood . It is believe that hen the Nine-dragon Screen as almost finished, a piece of glazed tile as damaged. Emperor Qianlong as scheduled to inspect the ork the folloing day. Using quick its, the craftsman in question molded the missing piece ith clay and sailed through the imperial inspection. Later, he asked a carpenter to carve a ooden one to replace the one made of clay.

　　（Approaching the Imperial Garden）

　　Behind the Palace of Earthly Tranquility and trading the north-south axis is the imperial Garden. There are old trees, rare floers and exotic rock formation in this garden.
