In Beijing, the ancient is constantly butting heads with the modern. Songs, Mings, Qings and many other dynasties ruled China from the city, over the centuries erecting the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace and the Great Wall. Now those icons have competition from attractions like the $140 million National Aquatics Center -- or Water Cube -- and the National Stadium (aka the Bird's Nest), built for the 2008 Olympics.
在北京,古典与现代一直在持续碰撞。宋、明、清及其他许多朝代都在此地建都、统治中国,数百年来,紫禁城、颐和园与长城也在北京一一建成。如今,一些新兴名胜──如耗资1.4亿美元、为2008年北京奥运会而建的国家游泳中心(或被称为水立方)及国家体育场(又名鸟巢)──与上述那些标志性古迹展开了竞争。
Our stint in Beijing capped off a two-week visit to eastern China, most of it spent in tiny villages and holiday spots unfamiliar to Americans. Remote Lands, which specializes in custom tours of Asia, did most of the planning, booking hotels, transfers and many activities. With the bulk of the logistics taken care of, we had space for serendipity and discovery.
我们在北京短暂逗留后,便进行了一次为期两周的华东之行,其间,我们大多数时间都住在了美国人不太熟知的小村庄和度假景点。远陆(Remote Lands)是一家专注于亚洲定制游的旅行公司,它为我们做好了大部分的计划、订酒店、安排交通出行以及许多活动。由于大部分的后勤都已被安排好,我们就有了意外发现珍奇事物和探索的空闲。
