We all know the Bund in Shanghai. It can be seen that it is one of the mostprosperous places in China, but the former captivity also made her have amiserable history: in 1845, Britain made her concession, and in 1849, Francealso occupied the Bund. But how beautiful and prosperous she is in front of theworld today!

Last summer vacation, my mother and I came to this loess land known as the"World Architecture Expo". As soon as I arrived at my destination, the waves ofthe Huangpu River attracted my eyes. The green algae glided in the water, itsgentle and slender waist.

As soon as we got out of the car, we came to the Asia building, theheadquarters of China Pacific Insurance Company. The lintel of the building isalso designed in broken pattern, which is beautiful and vivid. Further on, wecame to Dongfeng Hotel, once the most luxurious club in Shanghai - ShanghaiFederation. It has a bar of more than 110 feet, known as the longest bar in theFar East. We went on and came to a red house. After the guides explanation, Irealized that this was the famous steamship investment promotion company.Walking along the Huangpu river bank, the famous tower of Shanghai is a glance:the Peace Hotel, Pudong development building and the Oriental Pearl TV Toweropposite the Huangpu River, the world financial center.

At the end of Shili Nanjing Road, there is a bronze statue. He stares atthe flowers and grass here. Who is he? He is general Chen Yi, the first mayor ofShanghai in New China. Looking at the statue, I can see General Chen Yisinspection work in the wind and rain. His simple image and amiable, open-mindeddemeanor

Once again deeply imprinted in my heart.

Its getting dark. We came to the hotel, ate in a hurry, and then we wentback to the Bund. At this time, the sky has become dark red, and the lights ofthousands of families have been turned on in the sky. We came to the "Bundcruise terminal" to take a boat sightseeing.

We came to the cruise ship, the ship slowly driving on the Huangpu River,the lights on the shore printed on the water, as if it had become a wide pair ofoil paintings, water, quiet, seemingly dark but bright. After getting off theboat, we went straight to the tallest building in Shanghai, the world financialcenter.

We took the high-speed elevator in the global financial center. I heardthat it had a maximum speed of 10 meters per second. In less than 2 minutes, wearrived at the top of the building. The floor was transparent everywhere.Walking on it was really a pleasure to "see all the mountains and small ones".At first glance, there are colorful lights everywhere, cars are shuttling, andthe Huangpu River is even more beautiful. The stars on the opposite side of theOriental Pearl TV Tower rain are linked into one piece, forming a beautifulscene of "sky and even Pujiang". I heard that Shanghais electricity bill willspend nearly 300 thousand yuan a day.

I looked at the charming lights motionless, only feel the heart clear aswater, I, intoxicated!

大家都知道上海的外滩吧!那里可以看得上是我国最繁荣的地方之一，但曾经的被虏也让她有一段凄惨的历史：1845年，英国吧她划为了自己的租界地，1849年，法国也强占了外滩。可今天呈现在世人面前的她又是多么美丽多么繁荣呀!

去年暑假，我和妈妈一同来到了这个被人们称为"万国建筑博览"的黄土地上。刚到目的地，这黄浦江的水浪就深深的吸引了我的眼球，青绿的水藻在水里滑动这它那轻柔又纤细的腰肢。

一下车，我们来到了中国太平洋保险公司总部：亚细亚大楼，它的门楣上还运用了断花式的设计，优美生动。再往前走，我们来到了东风饭店，曾经，他是上海最豪华的俱乐部——上海总会。它有一条110多英尺的吧台，号称远东最长的吧台。我们继续前进，来到了一幢红房子前，经导游说明，我才知道，原来这就是当年大名鼎鼎的轮船招商局。漫步在这黄浦江岸，上海的名楼名塔一览无遗：和平饭店，浦东发展大厦以及黄浦江对面的东方明珠电视塔，环球金融中心......

来到十里南京路的尽头，那儿有一座青铜浇注的塑像，他凝视着这里的一花一草，他是谁呢?他就是新中国第一任上海市的市长——陈毅将军，看着着座塑像，我仿佛看到了陈毅将军当年在风雨中视查工作。他那种公朴的形象和和蔼可亲、虚怀若谷的风度

再一次深深的烙印在了我的心里。

天渐渐暗下来了。我们来到饭店，匆匆吃过之后，我们又回到外滩。此时的天已成了暗红色，天空中，万家的灯火也陆续打开了，我们来到"外滩游轮码头"打算坐船观光。

我们来到了游轮上，船在黄浦江上缓缓行驶，岸上的灯光印在水面上，仿佛成了一阔副油画，水，静静的，看似漆黑却透出亮丽。下了船后，我们直奔上海最高的建筑——环球金融中心。

我们在环球金融中心乘高速电梯，听说他有最高10米每秒的速度呢!不出2分钟，我们来到了楼顶100楼，在哪儿，地板都是透明的，走在上面真是有种"一览众山小"的快感。一眼望去，到处是五彩的灯火，到处是汽车在穿梭，那黄浦江也更美了，对面的东方明珠广播电视塔雨天上的星星连成一片，形成了"天星连浦江"的美丽景象，听说上海一天的电费就得花去近30万元呢!

我一动不动的望着这迷人的灯火，只觉得心清如水，我，陶醉了!

Good morning， ladies and Gentlemen， Welcome to China！ Welcome to Hubei Province！

Today I am very pleased to show you Three Gorges of Yangtze River.

At first I’ll have a brief introduction of Yangtze River， the Yangtze River， the biggest river in China， the third longest in the World， starts with the Tuotuo River at the Roof of the World —Qinghai—Tibet Plateau， takes in countless rivers， and flows eastward across the interior of China. With an overall length of more than 6，300 kilometers， the Yangtze River， next only to the Amazon and the Nile， is the third biggest river in the world and is a cradle that breeds the ancient civilization of the Chinese nation.

When the Yangtze River reaches the eastern Sichuan Basin in southwest China， it cuts through the Wushan Mountain. Here the river course suddenly narrows and the waters become turbulent. Sheer cliffs and steep mountains rise on either side， creating one of natures most fantastic sights. The Three Gorges———Qutang， wuxia and xiling————start just after Fengjie and end near Yichang， stretch about 200 kilometers. The Gorges vary from 300metres at their widest to less than 100 meters at their narrowest.

Qutang Gorge is the smallest and shortest Gorge， but grandest of the three. The Yangtze River， mighty and rapid here is suddenly contained like a thousand seas poured into one cup， as the Song Dynasty poet SU Tungpo described the spectacle. High on the both bank， at a place called Bellows Gorge， are a series of crevices. This area is said to have been the home of an ancient tribe whose custom was to place the coffins of their crevices， some containing bronze swords， armour and other artifacts， but the coffins are believed to date back as far as the Warring States Period （475bc————221BC）

Wu Gorge extends 40 kilometers along which the river snakes between based strange—shaped mountain peaks， each of which has a reputation based on a beautiful legend. The story of the 12 Peaks of Wushan goes like this： 12 nymphs once descended to enjoy themselves in the secular world. Finding how perilous Wushan Gorge was， they decided to stay there to protect ships. As time went by， they transformed themselves into 12 peaks. The Goddess Peak， the most graceful of the 12， is said to have been yaoji， the youngest daughter of the Queen mother of the Western Heaven .Goddess Peak stands out from the other peaks on the northern bank to be the first to greet the morning sun and the last to bid it farewell， hence its another name， Viewing the glow Peak. Seen at a distance， it resembles the silhouette of a beautiful young lady.

Down stream from the zigzagging Wuxia Gorge is Xiling Gorge which stretches 78 kilometers eastward and the cliffs on either side rise to just over 900 meters. Xiling Gorge is awesome with its dangerous rapids， shoals， reefs， sharp turns， billowy whirlpools. The water at one point is so turbulent that it seems to be boiling during the flood season. Xiling Gorge in the east consists of several small gorges. On the top of another is a rock that looks like a sword. On the crag of the north bank are two pieces of brown rock， which are named Bulls Liver and Horse Lung， whose shape they take. Next does the Lantern Shadow Gorge， which has four rocks， resemble Monk Xuan Zang and his three disciples———Monkey， Piggy and Sandy in the classic Chinese adventures of the four on their way to India to obtain Buddhist scriptures.

Around the last bend of Xiling Gorge stretches a vast plain. The river suddenly becomes wide here. Travelers on the Yangtze cruise may also visit many sites of historical and scenic interest along the river banks including the ruined of baidi Town and Precious Stone Village.

Everyone knows that the Yangtze Gorges are changing since the well—known Three Gorges Dam Project is being built at Sabdouping， Yichang， Hubei Province. The dam is 181 meters in height. Its construction investment comes up to 203.9 billion rmb， equals to 24.65 billion U.S. dollars. The installed power generation capacity is expected to be 18.2 million kilo watts. With the dam built， the flood in the Yangtze River valley will be controlled， navigation improved besides the economic benefits. Tourism will be little affected. Many cultural and historical relics are now being removed to a higher ground before the rise of the water level approaches.

Ladies and Gentlemen， the time has gone very quickly and your trip is drawing to a close. It’s a pity that you cannot stay here any longer. Please allow me， then， take this opportunity to thank you for your cooperation and understanding， and if you come back in the future， I hope to see you again and be your guide again.

扬州鉴真纪念堂是为纪念唐朝律学高僧鉴真而建。鉴真是当时淮南地区极有名望的佛教首领，他拜唐代律宗祖师道岸为师，受请东渡日本传法，于奈良东大寺设坛传戒，又创建唐招提寺，成为日本律宗初祖。鉴真是友好使者，他曾六次东渡，历时十年，虽双目失明而矢志不渝，在日十年不仅辛勤传法，而且把唐代绘画、书法、雕塑、医药、工艺、印刷、建筑等成就的文化带至日本，实际上是一僧团形式的文化代表团。他使魏晋以来中日两国人民互相友好的夙愿和以圆满的实现。1963年鉴真圆寂1200周年，中日双方商定，举行隆重的纪念仪式，我佛教协会主席赵朴初和日本佛教首领大谷莹润分别代表两国鉴真纪念委员会，商定在此建造纪念堂，1973年动工，1974年竣工。

纪念堂由我国著名建筑专家梁思成先生设计，他接受任务后专程赴日，参观奈良唐招提寺和日本其他一些古建筑，回国后，又对我唐代庙宇建造风格进行研究，精心设计这座纪念堂，体现了1963年中日两国商定的精神：不仅从意义上，而且建筑物本身也要成为中日友好的象征。纪念堂分为两组，一组为四松堂构成的清式四合院，南为纪念馆，北为门厅，由游廊周接，天井内有四棵古松，廊悬云板、木鱼，精舍巧建，清幽雅洁。另一组为仿唐式四合院，由纪念碑亭、纪念堂，再由超手游廊将两建筑周接，园内植佳兰芳卉，其中樱花为1980年鉴真大师像回故里探亲时，日本奈良唐招提寺森本孝顺长老所赠。这两组纪念堂一为清式，一为唐式，分之为二，但同处一条中轴线上，又合之为一。

My hometown is in Dali, where in addition to all kinds of delicious food, Iam proud of Erhai Lake, a famous plateau lake.

In the early morning, there is a light dawn in the East. The green CangshanMountain and the dazzling sunrise are all reflected in the lake, forming abeautiful picture. At this time, a gust of wind swept, the lake suddenly set offa layer of waves, ships on the sea with a burst of sea breeze dance happily. Themorning passed unconsciously in such peace

At noon, the sun was shining in the sky. The sun was shining on the surfaceof the lake, which was very dazzling. In order to avoid the summer, severalpeople jumped into Erhai and swam happily. Several children were splashing inthe water, splashing layers of laughter. In the distance, under the verdantCangshan Mountain, people gathered for summer vacation. The boys on the side ofthe road are eating happily with a bunch of snot and a popsicle. Its anotherhot afternoon.

In the evening, when the bright moon is in the sky, I often see peoplewalking by the Erhai sea. I sit quietly by the Erhai sea and bathe in themoonlight, thinking: how mysterious Erhai Lake is.

With the picturesque Erhai Lake and the magnificent Cangshan Mountain, Daliis really a satisfying tourist attraction!!!!

Hello everyone! This is located in the middle of Lijiang ancient city,called "Sifang Street". Sifang street used to be another alias, and there is alittle story about its name. Before, there was a small pavilion in the middle ofSifang street, and there was a small pool beside the pavilion. In summer, thelotus blossoms in the small pool; in autumn, the small pool is covered with redleaves, which is a good place for poets to sing wine. Because the pavilion issquare, "Fang" is homonymous with "Fang", so it is renamed "Sifang Street".

Lets see, there was no city wall in Lijiang, because the rulers surnameat that time was "Mu". If the ancient city built walls, then "Mu" would becomethe word "trapped", which was very unlucky, so the city wall was not built.

OK! Lets go to the next scenic spot. Lets see, there are several wellsconnected together. Isnt it a bit odd. The first well is the cleanest fordrinking; the second well is the water from the first well for washingvegetables; and then it flows into the third well for washing hands. Its beenused like this for thousands of years.

Lets not scribble around. Im finished. Lets play separately for an hourand gather here after playing.

各位旅客朋友们：

大家好!

龙庆峡风景区位于延庆县城东北10公里的古城村西北的古城河口，距北京城区85公里。龙庆峡古称“古城九曲”，其水源于海坨山东麓，经玉都山汇入古城水库。地理位置

该景区集南方山水的妩媚秀丽和北方山水的雄浑壮观于一体，峡谷曲折蜿蜒，河水幽长碧绿。两岸山崖险峻，森林茂密，裸露的石灰岩形成奇特造型，特别是长年被水浸蚀所形成的溶洞和洞中的石笋、石柱、石断层，与漓江山石极相似，只是当您抬头观望山峰时，才可感到北方峰崖的雄伟峻峭。

景区发展

景区内的古城水库始建于1973年，历时8年竣工。库区面积119平方公里，可蓄水850万立方米。这一人工湖的建成，既解决了灌溉用水，也使景区更加绚丽多姿。最为壮观的是矗立于古城河口72米高的双曲拱坝，可谓京郊第一。大坝与仿古建筑“玉都山庄”构成美丽的景观。夏秋两季，游人乘船到峡谷游览，最为惬意。在峡区的几座山顶上，新建了30多座形如向日葵的彩色凉亭龙庆峡景区内有许多名胜佳迹：神仙院、玉皇顶、棋盘石、魔王树、天池、金刚寺以及附近的萧太后宫等。1991年，景区为向现代化旅游区发展，增设了一些游乐项目，如“魔幻世界”、“碰碰车”、“无幕影院”等。从一九八七年开始每到严冬时节，龙庆峡总要举办一年一度的冰灯艺术节。龙庆峡的冰灯，办出了自己的特色。

景区特色

历年的冰灯有不同的主题，一组组冰灯、彩灯，既蕴含着人们丰富的智慧和创造力，又给游人带来美的享受。加上声、光、电的巧妙设计， 更使龙庆峡的冰灯艺术充满魅力。历届冰灯节的主题尽管不同，但顺水库大坝飞流直下的冰瀑奇观，却年年保留，70米高的巨坝上垂下巨大冰瀑，下饰冰花、冰柱，形成一座飞流千尺晶莹剔透的冰雪乐园。美丽的龙庆峡冰灯艺术节，带给游人一片欢乐。

龙庆峡景点

鸡冠山：又称独秀峰、凤冠岛。三面环水，一峰独处。山顶至水面约70米，从正面看酷似一只卧着的公鸡，是龙庆峡的标志性景观。 神仙院：位于景区最高峰，距水面200多米，院内有古松，高24.7米，胸径约0.6米，树龄约320xx年。神仙院分为上下两院，玉皇阁和神茶馆。 百花洞：长320米，展区面积3000平方米，人造花草树木1650种，以鸟兽动物点缀其中。百花洞分为繁花似锦、热带雨林、北国风光、江南小景、百花朝凰等景观。

"The rising sun in the East, the cold wind, the soft spring breeze, the newtown.". Shiyan, a city that has experienced the baptism of cold wind andrainstorm, a green pine standing on the peak of the world, is a shining star inmy heart forever, whether it is Xianshan or Xiushui!

Shiyan, my hometown, is the most beautiful place I have ever seen. Althoughthe landscape here is not listed by the famous mountains and the beautiful waterin Guilin, it has its own unique charm. Wudang Mountain, the first mountain inShiyan, is not only the holy land of Taoism, but also an exquisite landscapepainting. Wudang Mountain stands in Shiyan, and the peak is above the clouds.Wudang gate is surrounded by clouds. From a distance, it looks like a temple ina fairyland. In the drizzle hazy weather, Wudangs looming, but also adds atrace of mystery.

When I enter Wudang Mountain, I feel fresh and fresh. Whenever I smell thisfragrance, I feel a sense of peace that I cant say. But in the mountains andforests, there are all kinds of animals talking and streams singing. I dontknow what it is, but I know its a special language between them. If you godeeper into the mountains, you will have another feeling. Looking at the greenpines and trees in front of us, listening to the dingdong of mountain springs,we can feel the vitality of nature. There will always be a sigh. If the feelingahead is spring, then the feeling this time is summer, which is stronger anddeeper.

After leaving Wudang Mountain, there is another famous scenery - HanjiangRiver. No matter the surface of the Hanjiang River is flat or quiet, it is notas extreme as the water in Guilin, but it is clear and mysterious. Standing onthe edge of the Han River, looking at another self in the river, there willalways be some experience. If you take a closer look at yourself, maybe you canread the secret hidden in your heart from your own eyes.

Along the Hanjiang River, I come to a wave of Bitan. I look at the calmBitan, but I always feel that there is something swimming under the still water.From time to time, a few bubbles come out of the water, or a few circles ofmicrowaves are dispersing. At this time, gently hit the water with stones, therewill be dozens or hundreds of flying fish jumping on the water, the scene isvery magnificent. But just a few minutes later, the water returned to itsoriginal state, as if nothing had happened.

This is Shiyan, my hometown. Shiyan is nurturing every child who loves himwith its mountains and rivers, and we should also repay the land of ourhometown.

各位游客：

你们好，欢迎你们来到北京旅游，我是你们的导游。

妫水河位于延庆县八达岭以北十余公里处，它源自群峰环绕的松山自然保护区，东穿龙庆峡宛转出山，至金牛山西折，经妫川绕康西草原流入官厅湖，迤俪百余华里，早在1520xx年前，北魏郦道元曾亲临勘察，并在《水经注》中写下一节优美的文字;金元两代帝王耽迷其山光水色，銮舆而来，驻骅不去;明清时期这里已成了旅游胜地，雅士名流纷沓而至，赞叹之辞传诵一时，妫河之秀尽在两湖之间，上游金牛山下的金牛湖如龙首引妫水西去，下游妫水湖似龙尾，中间的妫水如游龙，水流迂回宛约，环境清幽，风光秀美，宛如江南。

妫水，古水名。关于妫水，古文献记载较多。《史记》曰:"舜居妫汭，内行弥谨。"《魏土地记》:"妫州有妫水，水源于城中，外城有舜井，城北有历山，山上有庙。"《尚书·尧典》曰:"舜厘降二女于妫汭，嫔于虞。"《旧唐书·地理志·妫州》曰:"隋涿郡之怀戎县，贞观八年改名妫州，取妫水为名。"《陈杞世家》记载:"舜为庶人时，尧妻之二女，居于妫汭。"唐《括地志》记载:"妫州有妫水，源出城中，耆旧传云即尧厘降二女于妫汭之所。"《山海经》记载:"妫，水名，舜之居地也……舜为庶人，尧妻之二女，居于妫汭。"……

妫汭有多种的解说，有人说指妫水与汭水两条河，有人说指妫水弯曲处。或说在山西，或说在怀来与延庆。1983年出版的《现代汉语词典》解释:妫:水名，在河北。汭:河流会合或弯曲的地方。妫汭:即妫水弯曲的地方。

对炎、黄、尧、舜文化做过专门研究的张家口文史作家曲辰在他与任昌华二人合著的《黄帝与中华文明》一书阐述:"潘城为尧、舜时都城，舜之故乡，其西北三里有历山即舜之为民时耕耘处，斯山不仅有舜庙，而且有尧庙及瞽叟祠。唐尧、虞舜庙在一处，以尧庙为主、居上，舜庙次之，居下;瞽叟祠另建在一处，为舜之家祠。在潘城中，潘泉处于城西南的城墙角下，出泉之水即妫水，妫水东北流经城中拐弯处，即妫汭--《山海经》所记之两女子居，水周之，一曰居一门中，的女子国。"上古时的国一般指城，有城墙的都为国，城即国。

颐和园英文导游词

good morning ladies and gentlemen:

my name is . i’m very honored to be youre guide. i do hope all of you could like my guiding and enjoy everything on your pleasant day. this morning we are going to visit the summer palace. the summer palace is located on the northwest suburbs of beijing, about 20 kilometers away from the center of the city. so it will take us about 1 hour to get there. before we arrived at the summer palace, i would like to introduce you a brief introduction of the woderful imperial garden. the summer palace is the most beautiful and the largest imperial garden existing in chinan, and it is the best-preserved imperial garden in the world. in 1998, it was placed on the list of world cultural heritage by the unesco.

the summer palace was first built as an imperial garden at the beginning of 12th century in the jin dynasty. the construction continued to the yuan and ming dynasties. in the qing dynasty, the building of imperial gardens reached its culmination. during emperor qianlong’s reign, the famous ‘three hills and five gardens’ were built on the northwest suburbs of beijing. the summer palace was a part of it and at that time was called the garden of clear ripples. in 1860, the anglo-french allied forces invaded beijing. the ‘three hills and five gardens’ were burnt down to ashes.

in 1888, the empress dowager cixi spent the navy fund having the garden of clear ripples rebuilt. and then she renamed it the garden of nurtured harmony (summer palace).

in 1900, the allied forces of eight powers invaded beijing. the summer palace was once again severely damaged. it was rebuilt again in 1902.

in 1924, the last emperor puyi was driven out of the palace, after that, the summer palace was turned into a public park.

ladies and gentlemen, please look over there, in front of us is an archway. it is called “emptiness and the collection of excellence”, and it is the first scenery of the summer palace. the two chinese words on the front side of the archway mean emptiness and refer to everything in nature and in the scenery. the two words on the back side mean collection of excellence and refer to the tranquility of the beautiful scenery just within the garden.

(outside the east palace gate)

now, we have arrived at the east palace gate. it’s the main entrance of the summer palace. on top of the gate there is a plaque with three chinese characters ‘the summer palace’ in emperor guangxu’s handwriting. the gate that we are now entering was used by the emperor, the empress only in the old days.

(inside the east palace gate)

now we are inside the summer palace. in front of us is the second gate of the summer palace— the gate of benevolence and longevity. the annex halls on both sides were used for officials on duty and the offices of the privy council. well, before we start our tour in the garden, i will briefly introduce you the layout of the summer palace and our tour route. o.k., ladies and gentlemen, may i have your attention please? let’s look at the map together, from it we can see the summer palace covers an area of 290 hectares, which the lake occupies the three-fourths. the whole garden can be divide into three parts: the area was for political activities, resting places of the emperor and empress, and sightseeing areas. our tour will start from the area of the political activities, and end off the marble boat. on the way, we will visit the main constructions of the summer palace, such as the hall of jade ripples, the hall of happiness and longevity, the long corridor, the hall of dispelling clouds and so on. it will take us about two hours to visit the summer palace. please attention, we won’t walk back and our driver will pick us up at the north gate. should you get lost or separated from the group, please meet us at the north gate.

ok, everyone, let’s start our tour from the emperors’ office --- the hall of benevolence and longevity. follow me please.

(inside the courtyard of the benevolence and longevity)

passing through the gate of benevolence and longevity, we have already entered the courtyard of the hall of benevolence and longevity. the huge rock in front of us is taihu rock. it was quarried from taihu lake in jiangsu province, so it was known as taihu rock. please look around the courtyard and you can see there are four grotesque shaped rocks placed in each corner of this courtyard, representing the four seasons of the year. the taihu rocks are usually used as decoration for beautifying gardens and they are thin, crease, leak and penetration in characters.

the bronze mythical animal behind the taihu rock is known as suanni or some people call it qilin. according to ancient chinese mythology, the dragon had nine sons, but none of them became a real dragon. suanni was one of the nine sons of the dragon. it was an auspicious animal that could avoid evil spirits in ancient lengeds. suanni has the head of dragon, the antlers of dear, the hooves of ox and the tail of lion.

(in front of the hall of benevolence and longevity)

this grand hall is the hall of benevolence and longevity. it was first built in 1750. the name of this hall taken from a book entitled ‘lun yu’ by confucius doctrine means, “ those who are benevolent can enjoy a long life.” this hall was the place where emperor guangxu and empress dowager cixi held audience and handled state affairs when they were in the summer palace. for protecting the historical cultural relic, we couldn’t enter the hall. so i would like to briefly introduce you the decorations in the hall of benevolence and longevity. the arrangement of the hall has been left untouched. in the middle of the hall stands an emperor’s throne carved with nine dragons on design. there are two big fans on both sides behind the throne which are made of peacock feathers. behind the throne there is a big screen with red sandalwood frame and glass mirror inlaid. on the mirror there are 226 chinese characters of the word ‘longevity’ written in different styles. there are two scrolls on each side of the wall with a big chinese character ‘longevity’ written on it. it was said that the word ‘longevity’ written by empress dowager cixi. there are 100 bats painted at the background of the scroll symbolizing happiness.

well, please look up the two pairs of incense burners in the shape of a dragon and a phoenix in front of the hall. they were used to burn incense sticks to create the appropriate atmosphere. in the old days, the dragon and phoenix were the symbol of the emperor and empress. according to ritual, the dragons should be placed in the center while phoenixes were to either side in front of the hall.however, here, the dragons are off to the sides and the phoenixes are in the middle. this was a product of the end of qing dynasty when empress dowager cixi handled state affairs behind the screen.

(at the entrance of garden of virtuour harmony)

we are now visiting the garden of virtuous harmony, where emperor qianlong and empress dowager cixi were entertained with bejing opera performances. it mainly consists of the dressing house, the grand theater building and the hall of pleasure smile. the grand theater building was known as the ‘cradle of beijing opera’ was uniquely laid out and magnificently decorated. there are 7 exhibition halls with articles of daily use on display here.

(in front of the grand theater building)

this is the grand theater building. of the three main theater buildings of the qing dynasty, the grand theater building is the tallest and largest one. the other two are changyin pavilion in the forbidden city and qingyin pavilion in the mountain resort in chengde. the grand theater building, a three-storied structure, has a double roof with upturned eaves. it is 21 meters high and 17 meters wide. performances could be staged simultaneously on three levels. the top one was a symbol of happiness, the middle level was emolument level and the bottom stage was named longevity stage. each level has the entrance and the exit. there are some trapdoors in the ceiling and below the floor for ‘celestial being’ to fly down from the sky and the ‘devils’ to appear from the earth to set off a certain atmosphere on the stage. there is also a well and five ponds built under the stage for a good effect of water scenes. the stage is open to three sides.

well, please look at the construction that stands right opposite the grand theater building, it’s the hall of pleasure smile. the empress dowager cixi used bo sit inside the hall to watch and enjoy the peking opera.

(a lakeside walk from the garden of virtuous harmony to the hall of jade ripples)

we are now standing in the middle of a rockery behind the hall of benevolence and longevity. it appears that there’s nothing special ahead. however, after we clear the rockery, we will reach kunming lake. this is an application of a specific style of chinese

gardening.

now, we are walking along the bank of the kunming lake. look over there, not far away in the lake there is an islet. it’s called the spring heralding islet. the pavilion on the islet is called the spring heralding pavilion. a number of willow trees and peach trees were planted on this islet. in early spring, when the ice begins to melt, peach trees are red in pink blossoms, willow trees turn a tender green signaling that the early spring has returned. hence the name ‘heralding sping pavilion’.

(in front of the hall of jade ripples)

this group of special and quiet courtyard dwellings is the hall of jade ripples. the words “jade ripples” came from a verse “gentle ripples gushing out of jade spring”, which refers to the rippling water in the lake. it was first used by emperor qianlong to attend to state affairs. in the late qing dynasty, it was where emperor guangxu was put under house arrest.

this hall is a hallmark of the movement of 1898. emperor guangxu was emperor dowager cixi’s nephew. after emperor tongzhi died, emperor dowager cixi made her nephew, who was at that time four years old a successor in order to continue her hold on imperial power. she ‘handled state affairs behind the screen’. after emperor guangxu ‘managed state affairs personally’ at the age of 19, a political conflict occurred between the conservatives and the reformers. in 1898, the reform movement took place with the aim of sustaining the core principles of the qing dynasty while reforming outdated laws. the movement lasted for103 days until it was suppressed by empress dowager cixi. it was called the ‘hundred-day reform’. after the reform failed, emperor guangxu was put under house arrest here. for the strict control of him, empress dowager cixi ordered to build many brick walls in the front, back, and on the right and left of the hall of jade ripples. at that time the hall was entirely sealed up, just like a prison. today only the hidden walls in the east and west annex room still maintain its original appearance. it is open to visitors as the relic related to the 1898 reform movement.

(in front of the chamber of collecting books)

this is the chamber of collecting books. in chinese, it’s called “yi yun guang”. “yun” was a kind of fragrant weed. in ancient times, it was usually used as termite repellent in rooms where books were stored.in the emperor qianlong’s reign, the purpose of the hall was for collecting books. later it was converted into a residence. there used to be the residence of guangxu’s empress longyu, and his favorite concubine zhenfei.

(in the hall of happiness and longevity)

this group of courtyard is the hall of happiness and longevity. it was the major architectural structure in the living quarters and the residence of empress dowager cixi. the whole compound was basically made of wood, which is ideal for ventilation and lighting. with its quiet and tasteful layout, the hall of happiness and longevity made life very easy and convenient. in front of the hall of happiness and longevity there is a huge rock placed in the middle of this courtyard named “qing zhi xiu” and nicknamed as “family bankruptcy rock”. this huge rock was discovered in fangshan district by a ming official mi wanzhong. he wanted to transport it to his own garden “shaoyuan”. in the old days, transporting such rock was very difficult. after spending all his money to ship it, he still could not succeed in doing this. the big rock was then left on the roadside somewhere near liangxiang county, 30 kilometers southwest of beijing. hence it was nicknamed “family bancruptcy rock”. later emperor qianlong discovered it and transported to the garden of clear ripples and laid in front of the hall of happiness and longevity. the colorful glass chandeliers hanging inside the hall was introduced from germany in 1903. it is one of the earliest electric lights in china.

(in front of the gate of inviting the moon of the long corridor)

ladies and gentlemen, you may have visited some of the best museums in the world, such as the louvre in france and the museum of great britain. now i will show you a special gallery in the palace—the long corridor. in 1990, the long corridor was listed in the guinness book of world records as ‘the longest painted corridor’ in the world’. it would be a pity if we leave the summer palace without visiting the long corridor and the marble boat. now, here we go, the long corridor first!

(strolling along the long corridor)

the long corridor starts from the gate inviting the moon to the shizhang gate. it is 728 meters long and consists of 273 sections. the long corridor is one of the major structures of the summer palace. since the corridor was designed to follow the physical features of the southern slope of longevity hill, four multiple-eaved, octagonal pavilions ( retaining the goodness pavilion, living with the ripples pavilion, autumn water pavilion, clear and far pavilion) were placed at bends and undulation, they represent four seaons of a year. thus visitors will hardly notice the rise and fall of the terrain. as a major part of the architectural style of the summer palace, the long corridor serves as an ingenious connector between the lake and the hill. scattered buildings on the southern slope were linked to create a unified complex.

the long corridor is the longest covered veranda in any chinese garden. on the purlins and beams of the covered veranda, there are over 14,000 suzhou style paintings. among them, there are 546 color paintings relating to the scenes of west lake in hangzhou, zhejiang province. beside the colorful paintings of natural scenery, there are also scenes of flowers, birds, fish, insects, mythology and figures. the paintings of figures are mainly adapted from ancient chinese classical literature, such as ‘pilgrimage to the west’, ‘the romance of the three kingdoms’, ‘the western chamber’, “water margin’, and ‘the dream of the red mansion’.

(in front of the gate of dispelling clouds)

now we are approaching the central part of the structures on the lakeside slope, the tower of buddhist incense within the hall of dispelling clouds. the central axis line starts from the wharf next to the lake to the sea of wisdom on top of the hill. the main architectural structures here are the gate of dispelling clouds, hall of dispelling clouds, tower of buddhist incense and the sea of wisdom, which altogether form a splendid three-dimensional landscape. the layout of this group of architectures was based on scenes described in buddhist sutras. this group of structures are among the most magnificently constructed here in the summer palace. this is a good place to taking photos, we will stay here for about 15 minutes.

now we are walking continuely along the long corridor, the next scene we are going to visit is marble boat.

look over there! halfway up the slope there stands the hall of listening to orioles. it was the place for emperor and empress to enjoy opera and court music. it is said the singing of orioles is very pleasing. before the garden of virtuous harmony was built, empress dowager cixi enjoyed opera and music here. now the hall is one of the most famous restaurants in china, featuring imperial dishes and desserts.

this is the famous marble boat. a famous scientist of china’s eastern han dynasty once said, “water can float the boat, but it can also tip it over.” a prime minister of tang dynasty wei zheng once used these words to persuade li shimin, the emperor of the tang dynasty. he said people are water and the emperor is the boat. people can support a good emperor. however, they also can overthrow the dynasty. emperor qianlong built this huge boat in the garden in order to make the allusion concrete. on one hand, emperor qianlong encouraged himself to run the country well. on the other hand, he wanted to show that his rule of the qing dynasty was as firm as the marble boat and there was no fear of overturning the boat. the marble boat was the place for emperor qianlong to sample tea and enjoy the scenery of kunming lake. emperor qianlong once came here to engage in the freeing of captive animals. in the times of qianlong, the marble boat was a chinese styled stone boat with a chinese style wooden superstructure on the top of it. when it was rebuilt in the times of guangxu, a foreign and chinese elements mixed resulting in two wheels to be added to the boat, one on each side. the floor was paved with colored bricks. all of the windows were inlaid with multiple-colored glass. a big mirror was installed on the superstructure for viewing rain.

our tour is drawing to a close after we visited the marble boat. today we only visited the major scenic spots of the summer palace. i have left other spots of interest for your next visit. i will now show you out through the ruyi gate. our coach is waiting for us outside the gate. i do hope you enjoyed today’s tour. thank you.

Ladies and gentlemen, the place we are going to visit is Shaolin Temple,the birthplace of Chinese Zen. Shaolin Temple was built in the 19th year ofTaihe in the Northern Wei Dynasty (495 AD). It was founded by Yuanhong, EmperorXiaowen, in order to settle Batuo, an Indian monk. Because it is located in thedense forest of Shaoshi mountain, it is called "Shaolin Temple". Bodhidharma,the 28th generation Buddha of Sakyamuni, arrived at Shaolin Temple in the thirdyear of Xiaochang (527 AD) of the Northern Wei Dynasty and spread Zen Buddhismfor the first time, which had a great influence. Therefore, Shaolin Temple iscalled "Zen ancestral court" by the world Buddhism, and develops rapidly on thisbasis. Especially after the thirteen stick monks rescued Li Shimin in the earlyTang Dynasty, Shaolin Temple has been highly valued by the Tang Dynasty and wonthe reputation of "the first temple in the world".

Todays Shaolin Temple is famous not only for its ancient and mysteriousBuddhist culture, but also for its exquisite Shaolin Kung Fu. "Chinese Kung Fuis the best in the world, and the worlds Kung Fu is the best in Shaolin.". Thisis the birthplace of Shaolin martial arts, Shaolin martial arts is alsorecognized as the authentic School of Chinese martial arts.

Shaolin Temple is also one of the famous tourist attractions in China. In20__, Shaolin Temple scenic spot was first recognized as the most advanced 4Atourist area in China by the National Tourism Administration.

Shaolin Temple scenic spots include Shaolin Temple, talin, Chuzu temple,erzu temple, Damo cave, Shifang temple, martial arts hall and other majortourist attractions.

Now the first thing we see is that Shaolin Temple is oftenhospitalized.

Shaolin Temple often hospitalized is the core of Shaolin Temple. It is theplace where monks and deacons conduct Buddhist activities, with a total area ofmore than 30000 square meters. It is a seven entrance building. Now the firstthing we see is:

Shanmen: Shanmen is the gate of Shaolin Temple. It was built in the QingDynasty and renovated in 1975. The word "Shaolin Temple" on the forehead waswritten by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. There is a square seal of"treasure of Kangxis imperial pen".

The stone lions on both sides of the steps of the Mountain Gate hall arecarved in the Ming Dynasty, which not only shows the style of Buddhism, but alsosymbolizes the suppression of evil and auspiciousness. On both sides of themountain gate are East and West Stone squares built in the Jiajing period of theMing Dynasty.

You see, the shrine in Shanmen hall is dedicated to Maitreya Buddha, alsoknown as Yingbin Buddha. He is kind-hearted and welcomes you with a smile. Wecall Maitreya Buddha "dignified and solemn Mountain Gate, happy to see the worldshining, laughing and greeting people, blessing endless bliss".

At the back of the niche in the Mountain Gate hall is the Bodhisattva WeiTuo, known as the Dharma protector, who holds a diamond pestle to protect thethree treasures of Buddhism, Buddhism and monks.

We can see that there are many inscriptions on both sides of Shanmencorridor, which are called Shaolin Temple stele forest. These are famousoriginal inscriptions since Tang and Song dynasties. On the east side of thestele forest is the former site of Ciyun hall, which is now the stele corridorof Shaolin Temple. It not only records the rise and fall of the temple, but alsohas high research value in history, sculpture and art. There are 108 steleinscriptions in the stele forest and stele corridor of Shaolin Temple.

The western part of the tablet forest is the hammer spectrum hall, whichhas 42 corridors in one week. It shows the origin, development, practice, eliteroutine, national defense function, monks and soldiers, martial arts activitiesand so on by using clay sculpture and wood carvings, etc., displaying 14 sets of216 hammer images in Shaolin Temple. There are meditation, running around theBuddha, Baduanjin, xiaohongquan, dahongquan, liuhequan, tongbangquan,luohanquan, zhaoyangquan, practicing basic skills, thirteen stick monk rescuingthe king of Qin, Xiaoshan monk going out to battle, master yuekong pingwokou andlaity disciples practicing martial arts. As the saying goes: five minutes in thehammer music hall, you can practice Shaolin Kung Fu by comparing thesestatues.

Tianwang hall is the second building we see now. The original building ofTianwang hall was burned by Shi Yousan in 1928. It was rebuilt in 1982. The twogreat vajras outside the hall are said to be "hum" and "ha" generals, whose dutyis to protect Buddhism. Inside the hall are the four heavenly kings, also knownas the four vajras. Their duty is to inspect the good and evil behaviors of allliving beings, help the poor and help the poor, and bless the world. Accordingto the combination characteristics of the four heavenly kings, it means "goodweather".

Daxiong hall is the central building of the whole temple and an importantplace for monks to carry out Buddhist activities. Like Tianwang hall, it wasburned by warlord Shi Yousan in 1928. It was rebuilt in 1985. The hall is a fiveroom wide double eaves Xieshan style building. In the center of the hall is thepresent Buddha Sakyamuni Buddha, on the left is the past Buddha, the pharmacistBuddha in the Oriental pure glass world, and on the right is the future Buddha,Amitabha Buddha in the Western Paradise. On the East and West gables of the hallis the eighteen Arhats, and on the back wall of the screen wall is theAvalokitesvara. The difference between the main hall of Shaolin Temple and themain hall of other temples is that there are standing statues on the left andright of the third Buddha and the king jinnaro, known as the founder ofShaolins cudgel art. In addition, there are two pillars in the middle of thehall, and there are Unicorn statues under them, which indicates that ZenBuddhism is a completely sinicized Chinese Buddhism.

The buildings on both sides of the main hall are the second floor of thebell and drum, the bell tower in the southeast and the drum tower in thesouthwest. The original buildings were destroyed in 1928 and rebuilt in 1994.They are the fixed buildings of the temple. We often say "morning bell andevening drum" is a signal for monks to live and carry out Buddhistactivities.

In front of the bell tower, this tablet is called "emperor Songyue ShaolinTemple tablet", commonly known as "Li Shimin tablet", which was carved in the16th year of Kaiyuan (728 AD) of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. On the front,Li Shimins message to the master of Shaolin Temple and others praises Shaolinmonks for their contribution to the Tang Dynastys pacification of WangShichong. In the fifth line from the right, Li Shimins initialed word "Shimin"is inscribed on the tablet. The seven characters "emperors imperial script" arethe imperial script of Emperor Xuanzong Li Longji of Tang Dynasty. Theinscription on the back is Li Shimins inscription on the imperial script ofbaiguzhuang in Shaolin Temple, which records the story of thirteen stick monkssaving the king of Qin. It is also the historical basis for the film ShaolinTemple.

To the north of Li Shimins stele is Xiaoshan Zen master Xingshi stele,which records the experience of the 24th generation Zen master of Cao Dongzongin Shaolin Temple and the merits of reviving Shaolin Zen. On the back of thestele is the tuzan stele of the three religions of Hunyuan, on which is engravedthe image of the three religions of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism. Thisstele reflects that Songshan is a place where the three religions of Buddhism,Taoism and Confucianism gather together, and embodies the important idea of thethree religions merging. Further north, we can see the Qianlong imperial stelecarved in 1750. The inscription on the tablet is a five character poem: to seeZhongyue tomorrow, to stay in Shaolin tonight, to be quiet in the heartaccording to the six Chan, to be deep in the mountains, to be quiet in theancient trees, to be overcast in the night, to be taught half rock rain, and tosing from my window at night.

On the east side of the main hall is jinnaro hall, which was rebuilt in1982. Jinnaro king is the unique Dharma protector of Shaolin Temple. It showsthe three different images of King jinnaro: the body of Bao, the body of Dharmaand the body of Ying.

On the west side of Daxiong hall, opposite to jinnaro hall, is liuzu hall.It was rebuilt in 1982. On the front side of the hall are Bodhisattva dashizhi,Manjusri, Guanyin, Puxian and dizang. On the two sides are Bodhisattva Dharma,Huike, can, Daoxin, Hongren and Huineng, the first ancestor of Zen. They arecalled the sixth ancestor worshipping Guanyin. On the west wall of liuzutang isa large-scale painted sculpture "Dharma walking only in the west".

The Sutra Pavilion, also known as Fatang, was built in the Ming Dynasty. Itwas destroyed in 1928 and rebuilt in 1994. It is the place for monks to collectsutras. It is a white jade Buddha statue presented by a Burmese disciple ofShaolin Temple in 1996. There is a big iron pot under the platform of the SutraPavilion, which was cast in the Wanli year of the Ming Dynasty. It is said thatit was a small pot used by Shaolin monks to fry vegetables at that time. Fromthis pot, we can imagine the prosperity and prosperity of Shaolin Temple at thattime.

The East and West chambers of the Sutra pavilion are the East Chan hall andthe West Hakka hall respectively. The East Chan hall is a place for monks tomeditate, while the West Hakka hall is now a place for guests.

The Abbots room is the place where the abbot monk (the abbot) of ShaolinTemple lives, lives and administers. On September 29th, the 15th year ofQianlong, Qianlong stayed here when he visited Mount Song. The bell on the eastside of the door of the Abbots room was cast in the Yuan Dynasty. It can onlybe struck in case of emergency to give an alarm.

Damo Pavilion is also called Lixue Pavilion. Inside the shrine, there arebronze seated statues of Dharma, on both sides of which are Huike, sengcan,Daoxin and Hongren. The word "snow print heart pearl" hanging in the hall is thetitle of Emperor Qianlong. There is another touching story about Damo Pavilion.According to Buddhist classics, after Dharma came to Shaolin Temple, a Chinesemonk named Shengguang followed him. He humbly asked Dharma for advice, but wasrefused by Dharma. Shengguang was not disheartened. Dharma went to the cave tomeditate on the wall. After that, Dharma went back to the temple to take care ofBuddhism, and the light followed him. The light took good care of Dharma. Everymove of Zen master, heart happy oral, so day after day, year after year. Onenight in the winter of 536 ad, Dharma was meditating in Dharma Pavilion, and thedivine light was still standing outside the pavilion. At this time, there washeavy snow in the sky, and the snow covered the divine lights knees. The divinelight still put his hands together and did not move. The next morning, whenDharma opened, he saw the divine light standing in the snow and asked him, "whatare you doing in the snow?" The divine light replied, "please teach me the truedharma." "Dharma said:" I want to pass the Dharma to you, unless Tianlong redsnow

Shenguang took out the sword and cut off his left arm. The blood suddenlyturned red and snow white. Dharma was moved. So he passed the Almighty weapon toShenguang as the evidence of spreading the Dharma, and named it "Huike". This isthe origin of the idiom story of "true story of the alms". The story of "seekingthe Dharma by breaking ones arm" has also been recited by Zen scholars. At thesame time, in memory of Huike, the second patriarch, who broke his arm to getBuddhist dharma, people also called "Dharma Pavilion" as "Lixue Pavilion".

On the east side of Dharma Pavilion is Manjusri hall, in which ManjusriBodhisattva is worshipped. Please follow me to visit the highest Hall of ShaolinTemple, which is also the most precious hall.

Thousand Buddha Hall thousand Buddha Hall is the last building of Shaolintemple built in the Ming Dynasty, also known as Pilu Pavilion. The hall is morethan 20 meters high and covers an area of more than 300 square meters. It is thelargest Buddha Hall in the temple. The shrine in the hall is dedicated to PiluBuddha (the Dharma body of Sakyamuni Buddha). The plaque of "Fa Yin Gao ti"hanging on the shrine is the imperial book of Emperor Qianlong of the QingDynasty. On the East, northwest and three walls of the hall are the inscriptionsof the Ming Dynasty The 500 large-scale color paintings of Pilu in the LuohanDynasty are made by unknown painters in the Ming Dynasty. They are exquisite inpainting, bold in design and of high artistic research value. We can see fromthe ground that there are four rows of 48 stake pits on the bottom of the brickpavement in the hall. They are the footpits where Shaolin monks practiced boxingand martial arts over the years. From these footpits, we can see that ShaolinKung Fu is extraordinary.

To the east of thousand Buddha Hall is Guanyin hall, also known as hammerspectrum hall. In the hall is dedicated to the great master in white, namelyGuanyin Bodhisattva. On the wall of the hall is the boxing Manual of ShaolinTemple drawn in the middle and late Qing Dynasty.

On the south side of the dizang king isthe defense elder, and on the north side is the Daoming monk. On the north andsouth walls of the hall are the "ten halls of Yan Jun", and on the west wall arethe "twenty four filial piety pictures".

葆光室与锡晋斋之间有垂花门，上悬天香庭院匾额。垂花门南有竹圃，北有西府海棠两棵。锡晋斋是恭王府西路院落最北端的正房。锡普斋原名庆颐堂，俗称楠木房。有东西配房各五间，东房名为乐古斋，西房名为尔尔斋。庆颐堂据说缘起于乾隆所赐“庆颐良辅”匾额。和坤修建庆颐堂时模仿了皇帝的宁寿宫，面阔7间，前有庑廊，后出抱厦5间，平面呈凸字形。正中厅内东西北三面为两层暗楼，楼内的碧纱橱槛窗、栏杆等捕木装修，雕饰精美细致。其外檐柱的鼓形柱础，与承德普宁寺大乘阁的形制相同。嘉庆皇帝“加恩赐令自尽”时，和坤罪状第十三款中的“所盖捕木房屋，僭侈逾制，隔断式样皆仿宁寿宫制度”，即指此而言。恭亲王入住后把这里作为书房和文物收藏处所。而锡晋斋这个名称，一说是恭亲王奕?得到晋朝陆机的《平复帖》后所起;另一说是小恭王溥伟所起。这是王府府邸最精美的建筑。走到西路的最北端了，下面我们要到这王府府邸的后罩楼去看看。

后罩楼位于府邸和花园的衔接处，50多间房屋连成一排，达160多米长。这座朱楼是国内王府类建筑中最长的楼，被形容为“99间半房子”。后罩楼东部为瞻霁楼，西部为宝约楼。西端的5间房俗称“小迷宫”，这里有国内惟一的室内园林景观，两个楼层之间去除楼板，将亭台楼阁和假山溪流等搬进屋里。这几间室内花园将楼上楼下通连在一起，山石叠砌，可上可下，瀑布飞泻，亭台楼阁和小桥流水都非常精致。

此楼前檐出廊，后檐墙上每间上各开一窗，上层为形式各异的什锦窗，窗口砖雕精细，楼梯原为木假山形。楼中间偏西一间的下层有过道门，通向府后的花园。那么现在就让我们去王府后花园领略一番吧。

站在府邸与花园间的箭道上，远望王府后罩楼，是不是格外有气势呢?那么接下来，您将要游览的就是被称为“人间仙府”的恭王府花园。

60年代，周总理和红学专家周汝昌先生来到恭王府视察，走到景色迷人的种有一大片丝竹的潇湘院时，周先生提出潇湘院是不是红楼梦原型的说法。总理一看这个院子这么好，当时就产生了修缮开放的想法，目的是让人民了解中国古代的历史和文化。在当时文化部谷牧先生的主持下，恭王府花园部分在上世纪80年代时就正式开放了。

恭王府花园又称“萃锦园”，位于什刹海西侧的柳荫街，是北京城内数十座王府花园中规模最大、保存最好的，也是目前北京惟一一处以花园的名义对公众开放的王府。花园南北长约150米，东西宽170余米，占地约2.8万平方米，有古建筑30余处。此园后来的主人恭亲王奕忻为了重建花园曾调集百名能工巧匠，融江南园林风格与北方建筑格局为一体，汇中西建筑元素于一园，使之成为京师数十座王府之冠，可以称之“人间神仙府，什刹海的明珠”。恭王府花园布局精巧，景色宜人，有学者说它是中国古典文学名著《红楼梦》中大观园的原型。
