韩国旅游英文介绍

Korea is a beautiful county with a history of over 5,000 years. It is hard as an American to comprehend a culture that has lasted that long when our history as a country only goes back a few hundred years. All of the historical sites have been preserved for future generations. These buildings, stone pagodas and lanterns, and other pieces of sculpture are known as National Treasures and are numbered. Seven sites have been selected as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The Korean treasures included in the World Heritage List are Bulguksa Temple and nearby Seokguram Grotto; Haeinsa Temple's Changgyongp'ango (depositories for the Tripitaka Koreana Woodblocks); Jongmyo Shrine; Changdeokkung Palace Complex; Hwaseong Fortress; Kochang, Hwasun and Kanghwa Dolmen Sites; and Gyeongju Historic Areas. More information about the World Heritage Sites can be found ub each of the site's information and in theTeacher Activities.Even with this rich history from the past, Korea can be seen as a progressive and modern country.

景福宫（Gyongbokkung）位于韩国首都汉城钟路区，是一座著名的古代宫殿，是李朝始祖太祖李成桂于公元1394年开始修建的。中国古代《诗经》中曾有“君子万年，介尔景福”的诗句，此殿籍此而得名。宫苑正殿为勤政殿，是景福宫的中心建筑，李朝的各代国王都曾在此处理国事。此外，还有思政殿、乾清殿、康宁殿、交泰殿等。宫苑还建有一个10层高的敬天夺石塔，其造型典雅，是韩国的国宝之一。景福宫宫外建有围墙，围墙长3626米、高6．7米。王宫的南面有光化门，东边有建春门，西边有迎秋门，朝北的为神武门。光化门里有兴礼门，兴礼门外有一条东西向的运河，河上横跨一造型精巧的锦川桥。在宫苑莲池的中央有一石舫——庆会楼，曾是当年国王大宴宾客的楼阁。1553年由于火灾烧毁了宫北角的一部分，日军入侵时又将宫苑的大部建筑物破坏，到1865年重建时只有10个宫殿保持完整。昌德宫（Changdokkung）又名乐宫，是韩国的“故宫”，位于首都汉城市院西洞，是李朝王宫里保存得最完整的一座宫殿。公元1405年，李朝第三代国王在此建为离宫。壬辰之乱时被烧毁。现存的建筑为公元1611年重建的。这座建筑作为王宫长达300年。整座宫殿内为中国式的建筑，入正门后是处理朝政的仁政殿，公元1804年改建，宫殿高大庄严，殿内装饰华丽，设有帝王御座。殿前为花岗石铺地，三面环廊。殿后的东南部分以乐善斋等建筑为主，是王妃居住的地方。寝宫乐善斋是一座典型的朝鲜式木质建筑，殿内陈列着王冠、王服以及墨宝、武器和其他手工艺品。院内陈列着王室使用过桥、马车和末代国王所使用的早期汽车等。此外，还有大造殿、宣政殿和仁政殿等。仁政殿后的秘苑建于17世纪，面积约6万坪，是一座依山而建的御花园。苑内有亭台楼阁和天然的峡谷溪流，还有科举时代作为考场的映花堂及建在荷池旁供君王垂钓的鱼水亭、钓鱼台和池中的芙蓉亭等。广寒楼（Kwanghanrn）位于全罗北道南原郡邑川渠里，是韩国的著名古迹。传说为李朝初期宰相黄喜所建，原名广通楼。公元1434年（李朝世宗16年）重建后才改称现名。朝鲜壬辰卫国战争时曾被焚毁。公元1635年（李朝仁宗13年）又按原貌重建。雕梁画栋、形制绚丽的广寒楼是韩国庭院的代表，其中包括三座小岛，石像，鹊桥，它的整体构造象征着宇宙。现在楼上悬有“广寒楼”、“桂观”的大字匾额。相传，著名传奇故事《春香传》就发生在这里。楼北侧的春香阁是1931年建立的春香祠堂，堂内供有春香的肖像。每年阴历4月8日人们都在这里举行春香祭。 济州岛（Chejudao）是韩国第一大岛，又名耽罗岛、蜜月之岛、浪漫之岛，位于朝鲜半岛的南端，隔济州海峡与半岛相望。济州岛总面积1826平方公里，包括牛岛、卧岛、兄弟岛、遮归岛、蚊岛、虎岛等34个属岛，东北距全罗南道100公里，是理想的旅游和垂钓胜地。在这里可以观赏名胜古迹、欣赏自然景观，还可以登山、骑马、兜风、狩猎、冲浪和打高尔夫球等。这里人烟稀少，土地广阔，不是高山森林，就是农田村舍。农家种的主要是稻米、蔬菜、水果，最多最壮观要属油菜花，春天，遍地一片金黄，非常好看。自古以来，济州岛就有“三多三无”之说。即：风多、石多、女人多；无门、无盗、无乞丐。青瓦台（Chong Wa Dae）是韩国总统官邸，位于汉城市钟路区世宗路一号。这里原来是高丽王朝的离宫，1426年朝鲜王朝建都汉城后，把它做为景福宫后园，修建了隆武堂、庆农斋和练武场等一些建筑物，并开了一块国王的亲耕地。1927年日本入侵后毁掉五云阁以外的所有建筑，建立了朝鲜总督官邸。1945年日本投降后变为军政长官官邸。1948年8月大韩民国成立的同时，它成为总统官邸并改名为景武台（Kyung Mu Dae）。1960年4月19日推翻李承晚政权后，尹谱善当选总统并入主景武台。不久，因为尹谱善忌“武”字并为了同美国白宫相对应，给白墙蓝瓦的这群建筑起名为青瓦台，所以也有人称其为“蓝宫”（Blue House）。现在，青瓦台主楼为总统官邸，有总统办公室、接见厅、会议室、居室，配楼有秘书室、警护室和迎宾楼等。

棒子的破烂小岛有什么美丽的，一堆人工现代建筑，就是个城市郊区的度假村。
