导游大赛景点英语讲解稿子终

Ok, now we are in the West Lake scenery, one of the famous World Heritage sites. Well, the most popular saying goes like“Above is paradise, below is Suzhou and Hangzhou.”So people say that the West Lake was originally a jewel fallen from heaven. So you can see how beautiful it is!

Alright, now let’slook at your left side. Do you see the long bridge over there? That’s our first station today “Lingering Snow on the Broken Bridge.”Now, everybody follow me and be careful please. The Broken Bridge is Located at the east end of the Bai Causeway, we can see it is a single-arch vaulted stone. 8.8 meters long and 8.6 meters wide, it has a clear span of 6.1 meters. It offers a nice view of the Inner Lake and the Solitary Hill. See, when standing here,you’ll get a wide view of the West Lake.

Alright, now does anyone have any questions？ As you can see, the Broken Bridge is not broken at all. So why do we call it“broken”? Why? Because it snows almost every winter in Hangzhou and when the sun comes out after some day’s snowfall, the snow on the sunny side of the bridge melts first, while the snow on the shady side of the bridge still lingers. When we lookat it at a distance or from the nearby hill, the bridge seems to be broken. So now you know, the Broken Bridge is not broken. And it looks extremely beautiful under the snow. So I strongly advice you may come and have a look in winter next time.

“千年等一回，等一回啊~“. Personally, I would call this bridge Heart-Broken Bridge, for it was the scene of a very popular, particularly sad folk story—the story of White Snake. Have you ever heard about it？ It tells a story between a secular boy and a snake-turned girl. At one point, the boy abandoned the girl and left Hangzhou. Sad and alone, the girl went to the bridge where she met him for the first time and sang,”The bridge is not broken, but my heart is.“Just like Romeo and Juliet in the west, their ending is a tragedy.And as the story passed on from generation to generation, the name of the bridge goes beyond the boundary of the city of Hangzhou.

In recently years, every morning, local people are seen jogging past the bridge, or practicingtaijiquan (Chinese shadow boxing) by the bridge, or even doing ballroom dancing inside pavilion and pavements nearby.Look, there are just some local drama lovers performing the local opera named “the lady white snake”in the pavilion over there, you see?The beautiful legend will continue forever.

Ok, I’ll stop here. Later you’ll have 20 minutes to take photos and walk around, but not far away. Meanwhile, please take care of your belongings. And our next station is LeifengPagoda. Its 10:00 now, let’s meet at 10:20 later right here. Have fun, everybody! See you.
