介绍一下你的家乡南昌英文(实用20篇)

在中国首都——北京的正东，燕山脚下，洵河岸边，有一个在改革开放中崛起的现代化新城市——河北省三河市，在643平方公里的土地上，有山有水有平原。三河人民在富裕和文明的道路上阔步前进。

三河的地理位置十分优越。它地处京、津、唐“金三角”地带，与北京仅一河之隔，西距天安门58公里，是环京津，环渤海经济圈的腹地，有着巨大的开发潜力和广阔的发展前景……

三河因境内有三条河：拘河、鲍邱河、洳河，流经而得名。

三河属暖温带大陆性气候，年平均气温11、1摄氏度，辖区一年四季分明，风调雨顺，气候温和宜人，风沙量少，自然破坏力极低。

三河的交通发达便利。102国道和京秦，大秦两条电气化铁路穿腹而过。由市区出发。30分钟可“上天”，1个小时可”入海“。市级公路纵横交织，立体化的交通网络，使三河成为上联京津，下联东北的重要交通枢纽。

三河的旅游景点，形成了以灵山、蒋福山、驹河，潮白河为主体的四大旅游区。小清河：位于灵山脚下，水清而甘，夏凉冬温，河两岸，垂柳婆娑，轻拂水面，风光优美。

三河的饮食，以徽派菜系为底蕴，融百家菜系之长——三河酥鸭、米粉虾、豆腐面鱼、豆腐丝、老唐熏鸡等无不展示水乡的风韵。

游览三河，观赏的是风景，感受的却是厚重的历史和文化。三河这座镶嵌在巢湖岸畔璀璨的明珠，以“水乡古镇”独特的魅力，笑迎四方宾朋。

我的家乡在南宁，它是广西的首府，是一座美丽的城市，大家都叫它“绿城南宁”。你知道为什么吗？

因为南宁一年四季气候怡人，繁花似锦、四季如春，半城绿树半城阴，所以有绿城的美誉。南宁有一个五A级风景区叫青秀山，青秀山因为山清水秀而得名。春天，青秀山的桃花欣然怒放，大家都来青秀山赏花。桃花有红的、白的、粉红的……，五彩缤纷、姿态各异，美丽极了！游人们纷纷和桃花合影，就像古诗写的“人面桃花相映红”，花美人更美！夏天，大家到青秀山看荷花，“小荷才露尖尖角，早有蜻蜓立上头”。大树下，老人和孩子们其乐融融，爷爷奶奶有的打牌、有的打太极拳、有的下棋；小朋友们有的跳绳、有的扔沙包，还有的放风筝、打羽毛球……一年四季青秀山游人如织，名不虚传。

南宁四季水果品种丰富、琳琅满目，有西瓜、龙眼、荔枝……

我爱这个风景优美、瓜果飘香的绿城南宁！

我的家乡在河南，那里风景优美，物产丰富，是个可爱的地方。

河南那里大大小小的山头究竟有多少，谁也数不清。这些山头，短的，长的，高的，矮的，横的，直的都有，还有旁边的柏油马路，马路旁边还有水稻，高粱等等，除了这些之外，还有一些麻雀站在电线杆之间的电线上，远远的看上去像五线谱一样。

河南实在太美了，但我们家乡有句口头语：“家乡美，美在水。”足见我们家乡水之美了。我们家乡的河叫惠济河，河水从上游慢慢地游到下游，河水清澈如镜，清的都能看到水里沙粒下面的石头尖。各种各样的小鱼在水里游来游去，好看极了。水蛇在水里一直往前跑，好像在跟其他的水蛇比赛呢！水里的大龙虾全身披甲，划过来，划过去，样子挺威武的………

我喜欢家乡的惠济河，更喜欢惠济河里的东西和小动物。

我的家乡在甘肃省武威市。地处中国的大西北腾格里沙漠边缘。终年干旱少雨，但日照时间长。因为这优越的地理位置，所以我的家乡盛产的水果非常有名。有鲜甜可口的解暑之王——黄河蜜瓜；有甜蜜细软润喉止咳的水果之王——软儿梨；还有在冬天里预防感冒，清肺止咳的上品水果——红小梨等等。这些都是我们家乡的特产，味道鲜美，深受人们的喜爱。

经过家乡人民这几十年的艰苦奋斗，我家乡的变化可大了。以前低矮的民房，如今全变成了雄伟气派的高楼大厦；以前一下雨就泥泞不堪地土路，现在都被干净整洁地柏油路代替了。城镇中心还建了供人们休闲健身的绿色公园。每到春暖花开的季节，公园里遍地是花的海洋。到了夏天，公园里的树荫下清风徐徐，又成了人们避暑乘凉的好去处。到了秋天，公园里层层叠叠的颜色更似一幅迷人的画卷。到了冬天，树上的冰凌儿就像是美丽姑娘的耳坠。白茫茫的大地就像是谁给铺上了白色的地毯，走上去软软地，还不时地发出吱……吱……吱的声音。家乡真是太美了，我爱美丽的家乡。

我坚信随着祖国的日益强盛，家乡勤劳的人民一定会把家乡建设地更加美好，我也要努力学习，天天向上，长大后为建设美好地家乡尽自己的一份力量。

“六安瓜片”是国家级历史名茶，中国十大经典名茶之一。

“六安瓜片”又称片茶，为绿茶特种茶类，采自当地特有品质，经板片，剔去嫩芽及茶梗。通过独特的传统加工，工艺制成的形似瓜子的片形茶叶，它色泽宝绿，有8个茶叶单片，起润有霜，叶底程黄绿两色，形成汤色澄明绿亮，香气清高，回味悠长等特品。 “六安瓜片”炒制工具是原始的生锅，芒花撸锰蓟鸱妫斯し础!傲补掀辈唤鐾庑魏每矗兜篮煤龋匀松硖逡埠芎谩9喜枥锖0%—30%的茶蛋白和脂肪，还是消暑的饮品，可以清心明目，提神消乏。我美丽家乡的瓜片也是指定为招待国宾的一种礼茶。

六安的茶富有诗意美。它与中国的丝绸、瓷器一样受到外国友人的喜爱与赞美。早在十七世纪，一位英国诗人华尔拉就用这样的诗行来赞美中国的茶。

我的家乡在河南油田，在我眼里，家乡的景色永远是最美丽的！翠湖公园就是我最喜欢的地方。

春季，公园里春花烂漫，柳绿花红。小池塘水清澈见底，池面上不时会有几条小鱼跃出水面。池塘边上的柳树正在发芽，看，柳条儿已经冒出星星点点的黄绿色小芽儿。

夏季，小池塘变成荷花的世界。荷叶挤挤挨挨的，就像一个个绿绿的大雨伞。绿叶中，一支支荷花亭亭玉立，就像娇羞的少女，满脸绯红，微微含笑。

秋季，秋风摇动树枝，片片落叶像金蝴蝶翩翩起舞，然后轻轻降落在公园的小路上，金色的落叶给林中小路铺上了柔软光洁的地毯。

冬季，公园里一片雪白。只有梅花坚强的树立在冰天雪地里。她不但坚强还很勇敢，不管是冬雪冬雨还是寒风来和他比赛，他都不畏惧，也不认输。梅花你多么坚强。

我的家乡一年四季景**人，多么像一个美丽的大花园呀。春天的柳树、夏天的荷花、秋天的落叶、冬季的梅花多么美丽的景色呀！我爱家乡的美景！

温州的魅力，名不虚传，就连忙碌之中的你，也会驻足等一等灵魂。

温州的依山傍水，或许只有传说中的伊甸园，才能与之媲美，梦幻而缠绵。

那布满青苔的石板桥，在绿波里投下斜斜的影子；牛背上的牧童吹着长笛，昏鸦和夕阳一起，摇摇晃晃地下坠；或是山谷里，若隐若现的群瀑、碧潭、幽峡、奇岩……它们共同撰写着温州的旋律与芬芳。

雾裹着竹林，竹林子轻轻搂着山，山护着怀中的树，树围着村，村倚着水。就好像孟浩然写的那样“绿树村边合，青山郭外斜”。梯田好不整齐，像是人们一砖一瓦砌上去的，又像个抹茶味的“千层蛋糕”，添了一层巧克力酱。

清晨的阳光驱散了薄雾，可树林子一如既往的阴暗、潮湿，在人们心中留下余香，与神密的遐想。奶白色的雾在树与树之间留恋。好想拨开这神秘而朦胧的薄纱，看看是否有几位仙人居住在这绿意盎然之地。一条流水穿林而过，不知它从哪儿来到哪儿去，也不知人鱼的眼泪是否在其中。

今天的温州不仅如此，还在原有的古色古香的基础上跟上了时代的步伐，与时俱进，昂然挺立。

改革开放后，温州的高楼林立，风格各异，到处闪耀着温州人民结晶，在闯入人们眼帘时擦出的的火花。

五马街的商品店中间交杂着哥特式的建筑。像是走进了繁华的古城，先进又不缺乏古典美，像是给中规中矩的服装奉上了复古的蕾丝花边。不冲突，又增添了一份人情味儿。五匹马的故事传入家家户户，有谁不喜欢，有谁不向往？

东塔和西塔各自矗立在两头，被夜色笼罩。这小巧的岛屿，曾容纳过一个强大的帝国。巨大的摩天轮在斑斓的灯光下闪耀，缓缓升到顶层的情侣们，似乎伸手就能碰到天空，扬起唇与身边那个和自己相知相爱的拥抱、感谢。头顶上那一轮皎洁的明月，被抹上了一层幸福的色彩。是啊，有什么能比搂着幸福更幸运呢？

长达380千米的欧江上，桥梁小心翼翼地横跨，生怕伤着我们敬爱的母亲河。这些桥各型各色的设计，净化了我们的眼，也方便了我们的交通。仿佛过了这座桥就是天堂的另一端。不知晓这四通八达的桥的某一端，是否又藏有一个“樟抱榕”。

是什么地方在演绎着古老的故事，奏出历史的乐章？哦，那如多米诺骨牌般的设计，就是我们的歌剧天堂。博物馆、图书馆与图书馆与其共同构成了一条让人流连的文化长廊。

米面、马蹄松、灯盏糕、鱼圆、胶冻、敲鱼……剪纸、童谣、过节……雁荡山、楠溪江、百丈漈……温州的特色就像这地方所蕴含的幸福一般大小，一般多少。

温州像梦的裁体，爱的故乡，还在散发着源源不断的向上精神。

何为伊人？在水一方。

在江西省的一个小县城叫宁都县。

我的家乡是一个美丽的地方，那里有许多好玩的地方，有莲花山、翠微风、梅江公园等。梅江公园里树木茂盛，鲜花盛开。每到了节日的时候公园里就热闹非凡，因为那里有大哥哥大姐姐们在为大家表演精彩节目呢！

离县城大概二十多里远的地方有个叫寨头脑的小村子，是我爸爸出生长大的地方，爸爸常常对我说这个村庄才是我真正的老家，所以每到节假日都会带我回这个小村子里玩。村子后面是山，山坡上树木成林，遍地各种各样的野花。村子前面有一条月牙一样的小河，小河绕着村子缓缓地流着。河上有一座石桥。一群群小鸭子在河面上游来游去。清清的河水倒映着青山、绿树、小桥。

村民们在河岸上栽了许多桃树。春天的时候，树上开满了桃花，远远望去像是一片红红的朝霞。过了石桥便能看到一片片绿油油的田地美丽极了。

家乡真美呀！我喜欢我的家乡！

一阵风把我吹到了灵湖，雨后的灵湖显得更加迷人了。

我们一边欣赏路边的风景，一边骑着车子，穿过小径，我们看到了湖面。啊，湖面真平啊平的像一面大镜子，映出了边上的树木，钓鱼人。那些钓鱼的人，手拿着鱼竿，身子一动不动，全神贯注，目不转睛地看着鱼竿，仿佛这一切都突然停止了。

湖面映出的小花，更鲜艳了，映出的小鸟，更加可爱，映出的云更加洁白了。在雾中。那个湖在雾里，真像在仙境里一样，雾蒙蒙的。这样的景色，我很少看见。这时，有了一阵微风，水镜子被打破了，水波光粼粼，好看极了！

离开湖边，我骑车在小径上，忽然，一簇簇紫薇花映入我的眼帘。这几颗紫薇花不但有紫的，还有粉的，白的，五彩缤纷。这里红得似火，白得似雪，紫得像绸。这些花小小的。花瓣是弯着的，我嗅了嗅，有些清香，闻起来让人心旷神怡。

又一个转弯，呀！

一座拱桥出现在我的眼前，我马上用力踩了踩踏脚，使尽全身的力气，冲了上去。下来的时候，我耳边只有呼呼的风声，这声音持续了好久，轻轻松松地“飞”了下来。

这骑车比以前都爽。

我的家乡景色优美，物产丰富，可是有点美中不足就是部分环境遭到破坏。

一个周末，我去二糖厂打乒乓球，刚到那里，一股异味扑鼻而来！瞧，二糖厂正排出滚滚浓烟，公路上货车排放的大量尾气，甚至路旁还有马屎、牛粪之类堆积在一起，行人都捂着鼻子，连路边的草也是黄黄的。我再往山上走，渐渐异味没有了，还飘来一股清香，树上的小鸟在枝头上叽叽喳喳地叫个不停，小溪清澈见底，树木郁郁葱葱，不远处还有一所职业学校，同学们正在给树浇水呢！

在同一个城市，为什么差别就如此之大呢？原来，二糖厂厂区的水、空气受到了严重的污染，而相反，山上的树没有受到污染，而是得到了人们的精心呵护，所以山上的树木长得郁郁葱葱。

在保护环境方面，我们虽然做不了大事，但可以从身边的小事做起，比如，不要乱扔垃圾，多植树木，看到有人乱扔垃圾要主动提醒，多坐公交车，少坐私家车……。

同学们，为了使我们的家乡天更蓝，水更清，花更香，草更绿，让我们一起共同努力，来保护家乡的环境吧！

我的家乡抚顺地处辽宁东部，占地1万2千平方公里，拥有230万人口的抚顺，是一座因历史而影响中国，以资源而闻名世界的现代工业城市，也是历史文化厚重、人文景观独特、自然风光秀丽的中国优秀旅游城市。

抚顺是清王朝的发祥地。抚顺处处充满了神异的色彩，被称为“启运之地”（鸿运开启的地方）的抚顺是瑞气素生的龙兴之地，清王朝在这里奠定了康乾盛世的根基，世界文化遗产、清朝关外三陵之首——永陵，依然伫立在兴京城神奇的启运山下。当年努尔哈赤登基称汗的后金第一都——赫图阿拉城是国家4A级旅游景区，觉尔察城、御路古榆、启运神树无不向人昭示着那段神奇的历史，引起游人无尽的遐思。

抚顺时时洋溢着浓郁的满乡风情，被誉为“中华满族第一乡”的新宾县内，中华满族风情园中那全国唯一的满族历史文化长廊、满族博抚顺是满族的发祥地。抚顺时时洋溢着浓郁的满乡风情，被誉为“中华满族第一乡”的新宾县内，中华满族风情园中那全国唯一的满族历史文化长廊、满族博物馆、满族老街、满族农庄，满族美食不仅让您亲身感受风情万种的满族民俗，深刻了解满族文化和历史，同时也让您为一个自强不息的弱小民族在这块热土上发展壮大，为推动中国历史文化写下精彩篇章的历史而感慨万分。

我住在一个美丽的地方,是一个被山包围的小世界,.这里山清水秀,鸟语花香，充满了和谐的气氛。

你看那高大的山川,穿着由树林组成的绿纱衣,不时还戴着由白云组成的大帽子,它可真会打扮呀!你看那美丽的溪水,像一条透明丝带从高山缓缓流下,曲折蜿蜒,晶莹剔透；流水汇成一个小水潭,水面如镜,清澈见底。水中鱼儿在欢快地嬉戏,游玩。鱼儿能够生活在这美丽的水中,真是令人向往。

不管是高大的山川,青翠的树木,还是清澈的小溪,绿油油的田野，都让人感到心旷神怡。再加上那些自由自在的小鸟,辛苦忙碌的蜜蜂,还有淳朴乐观的乡亲们,这里简直是一个世外桃源。

好景不长,在三年前发生了一件可悲的事.一切都改变了.几位村民看好一座北面的山,这一座山的山腰露出一大片石坡,像褪了一层皮,村民仿佛看到了宝,就大肆对这座山进行开采.那些人为了把开采工具运到山腰,就乱砍树林,乱挖田地.没过几个月,一条从水泥路到山腰的小山路就出现了,.为此许多苍天大树就失去生命成了人们的柴火.而山腰也被挖的像黄腰带,从那时起一座美丽的山就从此毁容了.

路挖好后，一下雨那条小路就泥泞不堪，大雨时就变成一条小黄河，雨过后人们要拿起清洁工具为水泥路做大扫除，吸取教训的人们才开始抱怨。抱怨有什么用，当初你们为什么不阻止他们呢？现在说有什么用呢？

开采就造成山上的土地流失，树林减少，我们中国本来耕地面积就少，还要浪费土地资源。而且他们挖好的石头运走，坏的就用挖土机倒在山坡上，现在山坡下的树林已经被滚石砸的差不多了。而且他们又挖了一条水道，把那些带石灰的污水排入溪里，溪水变浑浊，充斥着白沫。现在被污染的地方一只小鱼也看不见。再这样下去，那这个小山村就会失去以前的摸样：山上的树一棵一棵地减少，那些土地慢慢地流失，溪水严重污染，惨不忍睹。我们要是不赶快进行保护治理，那么这个“小世界”将不再美丽。所以我们要爱护树林，保护水土。只有这样做才能抑制住盲目开采，随意破坏所造成的环境恶化。因此我们应该竭尽全力去保护家乡，保护好环境才有好生活。

一棵小小的流星能划破夜空的沉寂，给大地一线光明。一滴水能折射出太阳的光辉，显示出一个五彩缤纷的世界。只要人人献出一份微薄的力量，那么这个世界将会更美好。这个世界生灵的生命是相互维持的，保护大自然的同时也在保护我们自己。

让我们一起携手共同保护我们的家园，共同创造美好的明天！

天水市位于甘肃东南部，自古是丝绸之路必经之地。境内四季分明，气候宜人，物产丰富，素有西北“小江南”之美称。 天水是中华民族和华夏文明的重要发祥地之一，史载人首蛇身的人类始祖伏羲和女娲，即出生于天水，故天水又称为“羲皇故里”、“龙的故乡”。

天水市历史悠久，历代人文荟萃，境内文物古迹众多，几乎每平方公里就有一处新石器时代的文化遗址。天水伏羲庙、卦台山，是海内外炎黄子孙朝宗拜祖的场所；秦安大地湾遗址，将5000年华夏文明延伸到8000年；武山水帘洞，洞内楼台、泉石、雕塑、画像一应俱全；甘谷大象山，拔地而起，巍峨壮观，山上有安详、宁静的大象山大佛；与麦积山毗邻的仙人崖，群峰对峙，是一处儒、释、道三教合一的游览胜地……还有与敦煌莫高窟、龙门石窟、云岗石窟并称为中国四大石窟的麦积山石窟，因该山状如堆积的麦垛而得名，并以其精美的泥塑艺术，险峻的洞窟著称于世。麦积山石窟塑像的大小与真人相若，有的交头接耳，有的低眉含嫣，有的俊俏活泼，形态栩栩如生，被誉为“东方塑像馆”。

天水是甘肃少有的山青水绿的地方，由麦积山石窟和小陇山、仙人崖、石门与曲溪等景点组成的麦积山风景名胜区，是国务院公布的第一批风景名胜区，区内重峦叠翠、山环水绕，兼具江南水乡的秀美和北国山川的雄奇，是理想的旅游胜地。

天水气候宜人，物产丰富。适宜多种粮食作物、经济作物和林果瓜菜生长，为全国十大苹果基地之一。天水特产主要有花牛苹果、秦安水蜜桃、北道板栗、甘谷辣椒等。

天水还有很多好吃的小吃。比如面皮、呱呱 和 凉 粉 等，特别是面皮，几乎每一个在天水生活或者说只呆过几天的人都会爱上这种别有风味的小吃，十几种美味调料和金黄的面皮搅拌在一起，真是让人垂涎欲滴。张川锅盔也很有名。

天水，这方炽烈热土，热忱欢迎四海宾客、八方朋友的光临！

春天的家乡穿上了万紫千红的花衣裳。你瞧！小草从土地钻了出来，树枝上吐露出小芽苞，窗外的鸟儿在“叽叽喳喳”的吵闹。一场春雨之后，小河显得有点膨胀，但更加清澈，更加活泼。春天的家乡生机勃勃，万物复苏。

夏天的家乡披上了翠绿的衣裳。清晨，蜜蜂忙着采蜜；午后，知了在树上鸣叫；夜晚，蟋蟀在草丛中弹琴。池塘中，荷花开得旺盛，蜻蜓满天飞，正是“小荷才露尖尖角，早有蜻蜓立上头。”夏天的家乡活泼可爱。

秋天的家乡披上了金黄的礼服。田野里，满是沉甸甸的稻谷；果园里，都是金红的果实；大街旁，树叶纷纷地落下，还发出“沙沙”的声音。秋天的家乡是成熟的季节，是收获的季节。

冬天的家乡换上了雪白的长袍。小路上到处都是雪，河面上结了厚厚的一层冰。下雪了，雪花像柳絮一样随风飘荡。雪停了，放眼望去，树上、菜园里都是白茫茫的一片。冬天的家乡是一幅美丽的画。

我的家乡没有什么名胜古迹。但是，在我看来，我的家乡是最美丽的。

我们中华民族有许多古老的传统节日，其中最重要的是春节。每年的农历正月初一就是春节。

春节，又叫过年，实际上从大年三十就开始了。每到这一天，人们首先要家里家外进行大扫除，目的是把一年的灰尘和晦气都扫掉。然后，家家户户都要在门框上贴上红色的春联，还要在大门上贴上门神或“福”字，而且“福”字还要倒着贴，路人经过的时候念到“福倒了”，意思就是“福到了”。晚上，从四面八方急匆匆赶回家的亲人都团聚在一起，吃着丰盛的年 夜 饭，欣赏着精彩的春节联欢晚会节目，一家人其乐融融，等待着新年的钟声敲响。

十二点整的时候，春节联欢晚会到了高潮时刻，新年的钟声敲响了，意味着新的一年开始了，我们又长大了一岁。人们不约而同地到户外放起了鞭炮、打起了烟花，“噼噼啪啪”的爆竹声震耳欲聋，五光十色的烟花在夜空中绽放。

大年初一早上一起床，大人小孩都会换上一身新衣服，有的还要穿上新鞋子、戴上新帽子。接着，小孩子们给长辈磕头拜年，长辈们会拿出“压岁钱”给他（她），据说压岁钱可以压住邪祟，因为“岁”与“祟”谐音，晚辈得到压岁钱就可以平平安安度过一岁。吃完香喷喷的饺子后，一家人簇拥着来到街上看社火。有舞龙、舞狮子的，有踩高跷、划旱船的，还有大头娃娃和打腰鼓的。当一条条长龙从街上经过时，大人们就拉着小孩子从长龙身下钻过，听说钻了龙一年都会平安吉祥。从大年初二开始一直到初七，人们提着礼物走亲串友，给亲戚朋友们拜年，送去了美好的祝福。

家乡的春节就是这样过的。每年，我们小孩子都盼着过春节。

一提起石榴，大家肯定都禁不住口水直流了吧！那就随我一起看看吧！

春天，石一棵棵榴树贪婪地吮吸着春天的甘露，舒展着嫩绿的枝条，为春天增添了一抹抹亮丽的色彩。

初夏，石榴树开出了火红的花，远远望去，像是燃烧的小火把，又像绚丽多彩的晚霞；近看，又像一个个精致的小铃铛。

盛夏，高大的树上挂满了个个粉嘟嘟的小石榴。小石榴圆圆的，挂满细长的枝条，把每根枝条都压得弯弯的，低低的，就像一个个小娃娃咧嘴向我们笑呢。到了中秋，它们便在绿叶底下偷笑，有的笑裂了嘴，有的笑破肚皮，露出了鲜红、多汁的果肉。

大的石榴有一斤多重，比红富士苹果还大，小的苹果才二三两重，和小孩的拳头差不多。石榴顶部有一个花朵调谢后形成的空壳，壳里面还有一些灰褐色的花蕊，它们的生命力可真顽强啊！石榴的颜色不是很鲜艳，青黄色，略微带着一抹红，上面布满了小黑点，像饱经风霜、长着老年斑的脸；表皮也不太光滑，用手摸一摸，凹凸不平、可别小看这石榴皮，它可是清热解毒的良药呢！摘下一个石榴，拨开它那苍老的皮，里面却截然不同：一颗颗石榴肉如珍珠，似玛瑙般晶莹剔透；仔细品尝，酸中带着一丝丝淡淡的甜味，让人回味无穷。如果放一把进嘴里，轻轻一咬，满嘴酸甜的汁水，味道妙不可言，叫人越吃越爱吃。

嘿！妈妈正把石榴给我拿来了，我要先下手为强，不然又会被妹妹抢了！

What strikes one first in a birds -eye view of Beijing proper is a vast tract of golden roofs flashing brilliantly in the sun with purple walls occasionally emerging amid them and a stretch of luxuriant tree leaves flanking on each side. That is the former Imperial Palace, popularly known as the Forbidden City, from which twenty-four emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties ruled China for some 500 years——from1420 to 1911. The Ming Emperor Yong Le, who usurped the throne from his nephew and made Beijing the capital, ordered its construction, on which approximately 10,000 artists and a million workmen toiled for 14 years from 1406 to 1420. At present, the Palace is an elaborate museum that presents the largest and most complete ensemble of traditional architecture complex and more than 900,000 pieces of court treasures in all dynasties in China.

Located in the center of Beijing, the entire palace area, rectangular in shape and 72 hectares in size, is surrounded by walls ten meters high and a moat 52 meters wide. At each corner of the wall stands a watchtower with a double-eave roof covered with yellow glazed tiles.

The main buildings, the six great halls, one following the other, are set facing south along the central north-south axis from the Meridian Gate, the south entrance, to Shenwumen, the great gate piercing in the north wall. On either side of the palace are many comparatively small buildings. Symmetrically in the northeastern section lie the six Eastern Palaces and in the northwestern section the six Western Palaces. The Palace area is divided into two parts: the Outer Court and the Inner Palace. The former consists of the first three main halls, where the emperor received his courtiers and conducted grand ceremonies, while the latter was the living quarters for the imperial residence. At the rear of the Inner Palace is the Imperial Garden where the emperor and his family sought recreation.

The main entrance to the Palace is the Meridian Gate(1), which was so named because the emperor considered himself the "Son of the Heaven" and the Palace the center of the universe, hence the north-south axis as the Meridian line going right through the Palace. The gate is crowned with five towers, commonly known as the Five-Phoenix Towers(2), which were installed with drums and bells. When the emperor went to the Temple of Heaven, bells were struck to mark this important occasion. When he went to the Ancestral Temple, it was the drums that were beaten to publicize the event.

Beyond the Meridian Gate unfolds a vast courtyard across which the Inner Golden Water River runs from east to west. The river is spanned by five bridges, which were supposed to be symbols of the five virtues preached by Confucius——benevolence, righteousness, rites, intelligence, and fidelity(3).

At the north end of the courtyard is a three-tiered white marble terrace, seven meters above the ground, on which, one after another, stand three majestic halls; the Hall of Supreme Harmony(4), the Hall of Complete Harmony(5), and the Hall of Preserving Harmony(6).

The Hall of Supreme Harmony, rectangular in shape, 27 meters in height, 2,300 square meters in area, is the grandest and most important hall in the Palace complex. It is also Chinas largest existing palace of wood structure and an outstanding example of brilliant color combinations. This hall used to be the throne hall for ceremonies which marked great occasions: the Winter Solstice, the Spring Festival, the emperors birthday and enthronement, and the dispatch of generals to battles, etc. On such occasions there would be an imperial guard of honor standing in front of the Hall that extended all the way to the Meridian gate.

On the north face of the hall in the center of four coiled-golden dragon columns is the "Golden Throne", which was carved out of sandalwood. The throne rests on a two-meter-high platform with a screen behind it. In front of it, to the left and right, stand ornamental cranes, incense burners and other ornaments. The dragon columns entwined with golden dragons measure one meter in diameter. The throne itself, the platform and the screen are all carved with dragon designs. High above the throne is a color-painted coffered ceiling which changes in shape from square to octagonal to circular as it ascends layer upon layer. The utmost central vault is carved with the gilded design of a dragon toying with pearls. when the Emperor mounted the throne, gold bells and jade chimes sounded from the gallery, and clouds of incense rose from the bronze cranes and tortoises and tripods outside the hall on the terrace. The aura of majesty created by the imposing architecture and solemn ritual were designed to keep the subjects of the "Son of the Heaven" in awe and reverence.

The Hall of Complete Harmony is smaller and square with windows on all sides. Here the emperor rehearsed for ceremonies. It is followed by the Hall of Preserving Harmony in which banquets and imperial examinations were held.

Behind the Hall of Preserving Harmony lies a huge marble ramp with intertwining clouds and dragons carved in relief. The slab, about 6.5 meters long, 3 meters wide and 250 tons in weight, is placed between two flights of marble steps along which the emperors sedan was carried up or down the terrace. It is the largest piece of stone carving in the Imperial Palace. Quarried in the mountains scores of kilometers southwest of Beijing, this gigantic stone was moved to the city by sliding it over a specially paved ice road in winter. To provide enough water to build the ice road, wells were sunk at very 500 meters along the way.

The three halls of the Inner Palace are replicas of the three halls in the front, but smaller in size. They are the Palace of Heavenly Purity(7), the Hall of Union(8), and the Palace of Earthly Tranquility(9).

The Palace of Heavenly Purity was once the residence of the Ming emperors and the first two of the Qing emperors. Then the Qing Emperor Yong Zheng moved his residence to the Palace of Mental Cultivation and turned it into an audience hall to receive foreign envoys and handled the state affairs. The promotion and demotion of officials were also decided in this hall. After the emperors death his coffin was placed here for a 49-day period of mourning.

The Palace of Union was the empresss throne room and the Hall of Earthly Tranquility, once a private living room for the empress, was partitioned. The west chamber served religious purposes and the east one was the bridal chamber where the newly married emperor and empress spent their first two nights after their wedding.

The Imperial Garden was laid out during the early Ming dynasty. Hundreds of pines and cypresses offer shade while various flowers give colors to the garden all year round and fill the air with their fragrance. In he center of the garden is the Hall of Imperial Peace, a Daoist temple, with a flat roof slightly sloping down to the four eaves. This type of roof was rare in ancient Chinese architecture. In he northeastern corner of the garden is a rock hill, known as the Hill of the Piled-up Wonders, which is topped with a pavilion. At the foot of the hill are two fountains which jet two columns of water high into the air. It is said that on the ninth night of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the empress would mound the hill to enjoy the autumn scene. It is also believed that climbing to a high place on that day would keep people safe from contagious diseases.

The six Western Palaces were residences for empresses and concubines. They are kept in their original way for show. The six Eastern Palaces were the residences for them too. But now they serve as special museums: the Museum of Bronze, the Museum of Porcelain and the Museum of Arts and Crafts of the Ming and Qing dynasties. In the northeastern-most section of the Inner Palace are the Museum of Traditional Chinese Paintings and the Museum of Jewelry and Treasures where rare pieces of imperial collections are on display.

Now the Forbidden City is no longer forbidding, but inviting. A visit to the Palace Museum will enrich the visitors knowledge of history, economy, politics, arts as well as architecture in ancient China.
