Welcome to the Bund of Shanghai. I'm your tour guide today_________ You cancall me little. Today's itinerary will be provided by me for you. I hope myservice can get your satisfaction. I also wish you have a good time today.

The Bund was originally a place along the river beach outside Chengxiang,Shanghai (Town God's Temple). Formerly known as "Huangpu Beach", after theopening of Shanghai in 1843, the first consul of British Consul in Shanghai tookthe place of the Bund, and designated the Bund.

In the 1920s and 1930s, Linjiang built towering classical style buildingsaround the world, and opened more than 110 financial institutions. It became the"Wall Street of the Far East". In the 1990s, the tide of China's reform andopening up came to Shanghai, and the municipal government began to carry outlarge-scale transformation of the Bund, forming the city we see today The Bundscenic spot is like a wonderful staff. It is composed of "solidified music"World Architecture Expo and "flowing music" Huangpu River. Our friends to watchthese western classical style buildings, not only to pay attention to itsexternal beauty. And we should appreciate them as sculpture art.

In this "solidified music" music, 26 buildings, the buildings arescattered, just like the beating keys on the piano. The music is composed ofprelude, three climaxes, epilogue and other movements.

Its prologue is undertaken by the weather signal station in front of theflood control wall on the Bund. This weather signal station is an ancientarchitecture of "atuonupo" style. Its main functions are as follows: first, wecan have a look at the signs of various shapes hanging on the mast on the top ofits tower. This is to play the role of weather forecast. According to themeteorological information measured by Xujiahui weather station, it will be usedfor the fifth time in the day In order to ensure the safety of navigation, thechessmen of different colors are hung on the mast to announce the wind, wavesand other meteorological information outside Wusongkou to the ships. Second, wecan observe that there is a big ball on the mast that can rise and fall up anddown. At 11:45 on the next day, the ball rises to half the height of the mast.At 11:55, the ball rises to the top again. At 12:00, the ball falls back to itsoriginal position. I don't want to say that we all know what we do. By the way,he is the time desk. But with the development of modern informationcommunication science, there are so many kinds of clocks that they can onlyretire. In October 1993, in the second phase of the comprehensive renovationproject of the Bund, in order to protect this ancient building with more than 80years of history, it was moved 20 meters from its original position to thenortheast as a whole, and it was decorated to make it look new. At night, withthe light of blue and white, such as a huge crystal clear "Yuzhu", beautiful andmoving.

The climax in the solidified music is divided into three parts: the firstpart is composed of three buildings: Asia building, Shanghai Federation andChina Commercial Bank building. Due to the time constraint, I would like tointroduce the Shanghai Federation. It is located at No. 2, East 1st Road,Zhongshan, and was built in 1920___ It costs 450000 taels of silver. It wasoriginally a place for British expatriates to have leisure and entertainment.The building is Renaissance style. In the East facade of the building, threehorizontal sections are adopted, and the front door is taken as the verticalaxis. The decorative patterns of the left and right doors and windows aresymmetrical, making the whole building harmonious, symmetrical and stable. Inaddition, we can see that the third and fourth floors of the building aresupported by six Ionic columns, which are slender, about 9 to 10 times as highas the bottom diameter. The columns are banded, and there are curled up vorticeson their heads. They are the symbol of "female beauty". There are Baroque towerpavilions at the north and south ends of the top floor of the building,enhancing the height and luxury of the whole building. From a distance, he lookslike a perfect work of art in the hands of a sculptor. In addition, the interiordecoration of the building is also very elegant and luxurious. There is a 34meter long wine bar covered with Italian marble, which is known as the longestbar in the Far East. There is also a semicircular iron fence elevator on thenorth side of the lobby. This is also the earliest elevator in Shanghai at thattime. Now many TV dramas reflecting old Shanghai are shot here. The decorationof the building imitates the style of the British palace, so it is known as the"Royal Society".

Next to the Shanghai general meeting is the China Commercial Bank building,which is located at No. 6 on the Bund. It is a Gothic building with a classicalcolonnade at the front door. This is the first climax of solidified music.

The second climax of solidified music is composed of HSBC building andcustoms building. It is the most representative building in the WorldArchitecture Expo Group. The HSBC building, located at No. 11, East 1st Road,Zhongshan, was built in 1923. From 1955 to 1995, it was the seat of ShanghaiPeople's government and then used by Pudong Development Bank. The British claimthat this building is the most exquisite one from the Suez Canal to the BeringStrait. It covers the widest area, has the widest facade and is the largestbuilding. The whole building presents the classical style of Europe in the 17thand 18th centuries and is an ancient Roman building. On the ground floor of thebuilding are three Roman stone arches. From the second floor to the fourth floorof the building, there are six Greek Corinthian pillars. This kind of columnappeared in the prosperous city of Corinth in the Greek era. On the top of thecolumn, there is a bunch of leaves and flower vines, which is shaped like aflower basket and beautifully carved. It is a symbol of "the rich". On the topof the column, there is a Baroque spire. The most noteworthy thing is that italso has three rare treasures: the first one is a pair of bronze lions on bothsides of the gate, sitting north facing south, one with a big mouth open,sitting on the back The one in the South Dynasty and the one in the NorthDynasty is closed, which has the meaning of bank funds. It is said that themodel was destroyed after it was cast in England, making it out of print in theworld. The second one is a huge mosaic mural on the roof of the room, which israre in the world, with a total area of 200 square meters. The third is thatthere are 28 Italian marble pillars 13 meters high in the lobby of the building,which are all formed naturally. Four of them, if not spliced, are carved out ofpure natural boulders. It is said that there are only six in the world. Thereare four here, which shows its value. (the other two are in the Louvre inFrance). So that the whole building palace, which commands more than 20buildings nearby, showing a gorgeous and solemn style. It makes it the mosteye-catching in the whole Bund complex.

The customs building was built in 1920___ It costs 4.3 million taels ofsilver in 2000. The building is eclectic. The big clock at the top of thebuilding is made in imitation of the big clock of the parliament building inLondon, with a silver price of 20 yuan___ The remaining two. It is the largestclock in Asia and the world famous clock. The big clock has a diameter of 5.It's four meters long and three minutes long. 17 meters, 2 hours long. Threemeters. There are three pendulums of up to two tons in the clock. The clockopens three times a week, and it takes four people to wind each time for onehour. In addition, every day at a quarter of an hour, a piece of "Dongfanghong"will be played, and at the same time, a whole piece of "Dongfanghong" will beplayed.

The two buildings, known as sister buildings, are Shanghai's landmarkbuildings. The HSBC building is graceful and elegant, while the customs buildingis vigorous and straight. The two buildings stand side by side and complementeach other. They share the second climax of solidified music.

The third climax of solidified music is composed of Huizhong Hotel, Shaxunbuilding and Bank of China building. The theme of this movement ismodernism.

Huizhong hotel is located at the intersection of Zhongshan East Road andNanjing Road. Its sixth floor is at 23 Nanjing East Road. 1920___ Built in, ithas a beautiful appearance, with white fair faced brick as the wall and redbrick as the waistline. It is known as "Bund beauty". This was the site of threeimportant meetings. First, 1920___ The second is the 1996 Shanghai InternationalConference, and the third is 1920___ Representatives of 17 provinces of Chinaheld a meeting to welcome Dr. Sun Yat Sen back to China to take up the post ofinterim president.

Shaxun building and Bank of China Building Shaxun building were called "thefirst building in the Far East" because of the luxurious interior decoration atthat time. Now it's the North Building of the peace hotel. The outer image iscapitalized with the English letter A. The Bank of China building is the onlyone built by Chinese in the World Architecture Expo. It is 60 cm lower thanShaxun building. There is another story. When the Chinese capitalists thoughtthat the Bund was full of high-rise buildings of different forms built byWestern powers, which reflected the strong economic strength of the powers ofvarious countries, in order not to let us Chinese lose face, the Chinesebureaucratic capitalism also decided to build a building, which was higher thanthat of other countries, so the original plan was to build 34 floors, but laterthe owner of Shaxun building was also affected He said, "you Chinese peopledon't have any status. How can you build a building higher than ours?" so hefiled a lawsuit in London, England. As you can imagine, the Chinese people lostthe lawsuit. Later, they could only build 15 floors, 60 cm lower than the Shaxunbuilding. But the Chinese are still unconvinced that "there are policies at thetop and there are countermeasures at the bottom". Your building won't let mesurpass you. I put up two national flags on the bottom of the building. Thesetwo chess sticks are higher than your Shaxun building. You should have nothingto say this time? So the two chess sticks we see now are authentication. Theshape of Bank of China building has Chinese national characteristics, the bottomof the building is slightly tilted, and the cornice is decorated with a bucketarch. The window frame is a deformed form of Chinese coins.

The finale of solidified music is played by the Oriental Bank and Shanghaibuilding.

The Oriental Bank is a baroque building. The whole building is full ofconcave convex feeling and strong contrast. Now it is the building protectionunit in Shanghai. Broadway building is a modern style, and it is the best placeto enjoy the scenery of Huangpu River, Bund and Pudong. Premier Zhou onceaccompanied many foreign heads of state and distinguished guests to visit. Inthe 1990s, the company won the title of "top ten safety units" for foreignhotels.

Well, dear friends, this is the end of the whole explanation of what iscalled the frozen music Bund. I hope I can leave you good memories.

Hello, everyone! Welcome to Shanghai. I'm a tour guide of Shanghai travelagency. You can call me Xiao X or director X. Now, we are in the Bund area.Next, I'd like to give you an overview of the Bund tourist area.

The Bund tourist area is located at the junction of Huangpu River andSuzhou River in the mother river of Shanghai. It looks across the river from thePearl River scenic spot in Pudong. It is located on the 1300 sides of theZhongshan East Road.

The main tourist attractions in the Bund are known as the highest customsbuilding in the "World Architecture Expo". The largest building in the Bund isthe HSBC building with the largest width, the largest and the largest volume.The Bank of China Building and the outer white bridge are full of Chineseelements, the mother river, the Yellow River Pujiang, the Whampoa Park inShanghai, and the four square completed on the eve of World Expo. (thesurrounding attractions include Broadway building and Bund source which isundergoing comprehensive renovation. )

The Bund, formerly known as "Huangpu Beach", was a beach along the river inthe northeast of Chengxiang, Shanghai. After the opening of Shanghai port in1843, the first British Consul in Shanghai, Balfour, took a fancy to this place.In 1845, according to the so-called "Shanghai land charter" published byShanghai Daotai, 800 mu of land including the Bund was designated as the Britishconcession, and the roads along the river were called "Huangpu Road and HuangpuBeach Road". Around the beginning of last century, there were domestic andforeign banks moving in, and gradually developed into "Oriental Wall Street". Itwas not until 1945 that it was renamed zhongshangdong 1st road.

After liberation, especially in the 1990s and 1920s___ On the eve of theWorld Expo 2010, the Bund experienced two large-scale renovation. It is worthmentioning that: after the transformation on the eve of the World Expo, the Bundtourist area has comprehensively improved the environmental quality of the Bundwaterfront area, highlighted the historical and cultural features of "universalarchitecture", and fully interpreted the theme of "Better City, better life",making the Bund the most iconic and classic urban landscape area inShanghai.

20___ In, the Bund tourist area was named "Bund morning bell" as one of the"Eight Sights on new Shanghai".

In a word, we can say that the Bund tourist area is a classic scenic spotin Shanghai urban tourism, which integrates human landscape and naturallandscape, complements western classical customs and Chinese modern customs. Itis a must for domestic and foreign tourists to visit Shanghai.

Good, ladies and gentlemen. Due to the time limit, the general situation ofthe Bund tourist area is here for the time being. Next, let's visit the scenicspots.

上海外滩导游词英语3

Now we come to the Bund by the Huangpu River in Shanghai. First of all, Iwould like to welcome you to visit the Bund and wish you a pleasant trip.

There are five tourist routes in the new Bund. On your left hand side arethe magnificent buildings and spacious Zhongshan Road known as the "WorldArchitecture Expo". On your right hand side are the sparkling Huangpu River andPudong Lujia financial and trade zone with bright future. In front of you is anew and unique sightseeing area. The buildings, Zhongshan Road, sightseeingarea, Huangpu River and Lujiazui are like the staff in the music score, whilethe industrious Shanghai people are like strings of inter symbol, forming thelatest and most beautiful movement. Welcome to all the guests.

In short, it used to be a grassy wasteland outside the old city ofShanghai.

Although these buildings with European Renaissance style are not designedby the same designer or built in the same era, their architectural style is soharmonious and unified that it seems to be natural. From the the Bund road tothe outer white road bridge, the length of the arc is only 1.5 kilometers, androw upon row of 52 buildings of different styles, including English, French,ancient Greek, etc. At that time, many foreign banks, associations andconsulates gathered here, known as "Wall Street" in the East, forming ahistorical miniature of the semi colonial and semi feudal society in oldShanghai.

Please see, Dongfeng Hotel No.2 on the new Bund used to be a very famousBritish club. It is a typical British classical building. The building is 6stories high (including basement). There is a lookout Pavilion at the north andsouth ends of the roof. The interior decoration is very gorgeous. The firstfloor bar used to be proud of its 110.7-foot bar, which is the longest in theEast. Now KFC is located in the bar.

Before the new Bund 12, it was the famous "HSBC Bank". The building wasbuilt in 1923, which is an antique Greek style dome building. The building is arectangular building close to square, with five stories high and a halfspherical top layer. There are seven stories at the top of the building and asteel frame structure. The interior of the building is decorated with variousreception rooms in the United States, Britain, France, Russia and Japan. Thisbuilding was once regarded by the British as one of the most exquisite buildingsfrom the Suez Canal to the Bering Strait in the Far East.

The building next to HSBC is the Shanghai customs building, a 19th-centuryretro building, built in 1927, which is rare in the world today. The clock onthe top of the building can be seen all around. It plays a short tune every 15minutes. The sound of the bell is melodious and deep, with a sound of 10 Li.

After Wilson, the British designer, the HSBC building and the customsbuilding are affectionately called "sister buildings" in Shanghai, and they arestill one of the important symbols of Shanghai.

The two buildings at the entrance of Nanjing East Road are called peacehotel. The south facing building was built in 1906. It was called Huizhong hotelat that time. It is the earliest existing hotel in Shanghai. It can be used as ahistorical building, belonging to the Renaissance of British culture. Thebiggest feature of the building is that the facade is made of red brick withwaist line and white wall brick with veneer. From a distance, it looks solemnand elegant with unique style, which is a rare masterpiece.

These buildings on the Bund are the crystallization of the industriouswisdom of the Chinese working people, and also reflect the plunder and invasionof Shanghai by the western colonists. Nowadays, in order to let people know thehistory of these buildings, the Chinese and English nameplates are hung in frontof each building.

As for the Bund, the name given to her by Shanghai people has changed withthe passage of time. Shanghai people call the Bund before liberation the oldBund and after liberation the Bund. Now people praise it as the new Bund. Therehave been scenes of seizing the Bund many times in history, but each time has acompletely different historical significance. Since the Third Plenary Session ofthe Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the strategicfocus of China's reform and opening up has also changed from south to north. Thedevelopment and revitalization of Pudong has brought Shanghai to the forefrontof China's reform and opening up. The spring breeze has awakened Shanghai Bund,which has been sleeping for many years. Chinese and foreign financialinstitutions have also seized the Bund. Shanghai has made a major move to "cleanup the nest and attract Phoenix", replacing the houses on the Bund FinancialStreet, attracting "old customers" at home and abroad to settle down again,showing the style of "Wall Street" in the Far East again.

The Bund is a symbol of Shanghai and a must for Chinese and foreigntourists. But in the past, because of the narrow road and the crowded traffic,the overall image of the Bund was seriously affected. In order to change theappearance of the Bund, the Shanghai People's government takes the Bund as a keypoint to transform. The road in front of us is called Zhongshan Road. It isnamed in memory of Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the pioneer of China's democraticrevolution. It is also part of the comprehensive transformation of the Bund. Theroad is 826m long and 45m wide with 6 to 10 lanes. This wide traffic line is notonly limited to the Bund area, but also extends with the pace of reform andopening up. It starts from Jiangwan Wujiaochang in the north and ends at NanpuBridge in the south. By the beginning of the next century, the North-SouthCorridor will be 15 kilometers long and will become a landmark of Shanghaitourism.

The riverside road we are taking now is quite unique. It not onlyintegrates culture and greening, but also is a good place for people to practicewriting and martial arts in the morning, a place for tourists at home and abroadto visit in the daytime, and an ideal place for lovers to have a love talk inthe evening. It is said that many foreign friends have come to experiencelife.

Ladies and gentlemen, strolling in the new Bund Sightseeing Area, do youfeel that the new Bund not only has a new look, but also has a strong artisticatmosphere in the bustling city. Let's see: an artistic landscape with the themeof "for tomorrow" is set on the Bund of Yan'an East Road, embracing with sixcolumns and combining with the meteorological signal station with a history ofmore than 80 years to form a group of scenery. The customs building and theelectronic waterfall clock are also quite new. The electronic waterfall clock isa ladder type, 27 meters long and 3.5 meters high, with 10 full steps. The wholeoperation process is controlled by computer. There are more than 1000 jets ofwater in various colors of Arabic numerals, which makes the world so far awayand so close to each other. The tourist area has become a scenic line ofShanghai style culture that can accommodate hundreds of rivers.

Huangpu Park is facing the famous Huangpu River at home and abroad. "Theyellow water in Huanglongpu on the moon" vividly depicts the color of HuangpuRiver. Jiangpu river is the mother river of Shanghai. It originates from TaihuLake in Wuxi. It is the longest, widest and deepest river in Shanghai, with atotal length of 114 km, an average width of 400 m and a depth of 7-9 M. Itsoriginal name is Dongjiang, also known as chunshenjiang and huangxiejiang. It issaid that in the 20th century___ Many years ago, Shanghai belonged to the stateof Chu at that time. At that time, there was a great general named Huang Xie inthe state of Chu. He was very talented in governing the country. He wasappointed prime minister by the king of Chu and was granted the title of"fengshenjun" to govern the land of Shanghai. Due to the siltation of the upperreaches of Dongjiang River at that time, he led the people of Shanghai to dredgeand modify the waterway, which greatly developed Shanghai's water transportationand agriculture. In order to commemorate Huang Xie's achievements, latergenerations changed the name of Dongjiang River to "chunshenjiang" and"huangxiepu", which was not officially named "Huangpu River" until the SouthernSong Dynasty.

Overlooking the other bank, Pudong Lujiazui financial and trade zone andPuxi Bund are facing each other. Its functions are finance, trade and foreignservices. It will be the core and symbol of new Shanghai. "East Bund" BinjiangAvenue, with a total length of 2500 meters, integrates tourism, sightseeing andentertainment, along which there are six distinctive squares. Although I canonly smell the rumbling sound of piling, it is the most gorgeous movement on thestaff and predicts a better future for the Bund.

The Bund, located on the Bank of Huangpu River in the Central District ofShanghai, is a scenic spot in Shanghai and a must for tourists to Shanghai. TheBund, also known as zhongshangdong 1st Road, is about 1.5 km long. FacingHuangpu River in the East and 52 buildings with different styles, such asGothic, Roman, Baroque, Chinese and western wall style, in the west, are knownas the "World Architecture Expo Group".

Facing the open mother river, Huangpu River, the Bund leans back on thebuildings with rigorous modeling and different styles. Because of its uniquegeographical location and its influence on Shanghai and even China in the fieldof economic activities in the past century, it has a very rich culturalconnotation. The Bund's riverside, levee, green belt and beautiful buildingsconstitute the street view, which is the most characteristic Shanghai landscape.In the morning, the Bund is a place for people to keep fit; in the daytime, itis a bustling tourist attraction; in the evening, it is a place for lovers tofall in love. When the lights start to shine, the buildings on the Bund areresplendent, like crystal palaces, which make tourists at home and abroadmarvel. Strolling here, we appreciate the style of Huangpu River, the motherriver of Shanghai, overlook the new appearance of Lujiazui area on the otherside of Pudong, feel the different flavor of metropolitan gardens among greentrees and flower beds, and enjoy the rare fresh air and sunshine in ametropolis.

The Bund got its name

Huangpu River is the largest river flowing through Shanghai. The source ofHuangpu River is located in Longwangshan nature reserve, Anji, ZhejiangProvince. As the Huangpu River is connected to the sea, it is affected by tides.On average, there are obvious rising and falling tides twice a day. The waterlevel drop in a day can reach more than 4 meters. In case of astronomical springtide, the water level drop will be even greater. (as for the source of HuangpuRiver, some said it was in Dianshan Lake, others said it was in Taihu Lake.However, it is rare to see lakes as the source of rivers in the world geography.Moreover, Taihu Lake is a shallow lake basin with water from many sources, whichcan not be regarded as a complete source. Only by finding the source of TaihuLake can we find the real source of Huangpu River. After investigation andresearch, Xitiaoxi, located at the foot of Longwang mountain, has a drainagearea of 2800 square kilometers with a length of 145 kilometers, 1.8 billioncubic meters of water. Its water supply accounts for 70% of Taihu Lake's watersupply, making it the first water source of Taihu Lake. Longwang mountain is thesource of Huangpu River. )

150 years ago, Shanghai was only a medium-sized County along the coast ofthe south of the Yangtze River. The shipping industry was very underdeveloped,and people did not have the necessity or ability to build embankments along theriver. Therefore, most of the river banks were natural beaches except theHuangpu River bank in Dongmen. At ebb tide, the river water stagnates in thecenter of the riverbed, exposing a large area of beach. At high tide, the rivernever crossed the bank. Huangpu River is the main channel of Shanghai. Becausethe river is wide and the water is fast, ships going against the river have topull their boats. For hundreds of years, the track of the trackers has steppedon a winding path on the Huangpu River beach, which is known as the "trackway",which is the earliest Road on the Bund.

In terms of place names used in Shanghai, the upstream of the river isgenerally called "Li", and the downstream of the river is called "Wai". Forexample, people in Shanghai today are used to call Hanyang road and Bridge onHongkou port "Lihong bridge", Changzhi Road and bridge "Zhonghong bridge", andDaming Road and bridge "Waihong bridge", which is named according to thelocation of the river where the bridge is located. Similarly, the first bridgeof the Suzhou River entering the Huangpu River estuary is called "Wai Bai Dubridge". The bridge in turn is also commonly known as the "Li Bai Du bridge"(now Zhapu Luqiao) and the three Bai Du bridge (now Sichuan Luqiao). Forexample, based on the county seat, the place close to the city is called "Li",and the place far away from the city is called "Wai". Today's southern urbanarea is named "lixiangua Street" and "waixiangua Street"; "Licang bridge" and"waicang bridge" are named after this.

The Huangpu River near the county seat of Shanghai forms a sharp bend atthe exit of Lujiabang, so the Shanghainese take Lujiabang as the boundary. Itsupstream is called "lihuangpu" and its downstream is called "waihuangpu". Thebeaches in lihuangpu are called "lihuangpu Beach" for short, and the beaches inwaihuangpu are called "waihuangpu Beach" for short.

After 1840, Shanghai, as one of the five trading ports, opened to theoutside world. In 1845, the British colonialists seized the Bund and establishedthe British concession. In 1849, French colonists also seized the Bund andestablished the French concession. From then on to the early 1940s, the Bund wasoccupied by the British concession and the French concession, and was called"the Bund of the British concession" and "the Bund of France" respectively. TheMinistry of industry of the public concession and the Council of the FrenchConcession are their highest municipal organizations and leading bodiesrespectively.

The concession is like a sovereign area, and the Western powers operate andmanage it in their way. With the construction of the concession, the Bund becamethe earliest and most prosperous place in the concession. In the early days, theBund was a center of foreign trade, where there were many foreign companies andtrade flourished. Since the late 19th century, many foreign and Chinese bankshave been established on the Bund, which has become Shanghai's "FinancialStreet" and also known as "Oriental Wall Street".

As a result, the Bund has become a "geomantic treasure land". Owning apiece of land on the Bund is not only a symbol of wealth, but also a symbol ofreputation. After commercial banks and financial enterprises occupied a place inthe Bund, they built the company building. Most of the buildings on the Bundhave been rebuilt for three or more times. Architects from all over the worldhave shown their skills here, making the Bund, which is not large in area,gather more than 20 buildings of different periods, different countries anddifferent styles. Therefore, the Bund is also known as the "World ArchitectureExpo".

For more than a hundred years, the Bund has always appeared in front of theworld as a symbol of Shanghai. It is the pride of the people of Shanghai. Itshows the world the culture of Shanghai and the excellent ability of integratingforeign civilization with local civilization, innovating and developing.
