❷ 頤和園的英語介紹
The Summer Palace or Yiheyuan (Traditional Chinese: 頤和園; Simplified Chinese: 頤和園; pinyin: Yíhé Yuán; literally "Garden of Nurtured Harmony") is a palace in Beijing, China.

In its compact 70,000 square metres of building space, one finds a variety of palaces, gardens, and other classical-style architectural structures.
The Summer Palace started out life as the Garden of Clear Ripples (Traditional Chinese: 清漪園; Simplified Chinese: 清漪園; pinyin: Qīngyī Yuán) in 1750 (Reign Year 15 of Emperor Qianlong). Artisans reproced the garden architecture styles of various palaces in China. Kunming Lake was created by extending an existing body of water to imitate the West Lake in Hangzhou. The palace complex suffered two major attacks--ring the Anglo-French allied invasion of 1860 (with the Old Summer Palace also ransacked at the same time), and ring the Boxer Rebellion, in an attack by the eight allied powers in 1900. The garden survived and was rebuilt in 1886 and 1902. In 1888, it was given the current name, Yihe Yuan. It served as a summer resort for Empress Dowager Cixi, who diverted 30 million taels of silver, said to be originally designated for the Chinese navy (Beiyang Fleet), into the reconstruction and enlargement of the Summer Palace.
In December 1998, UNESCO included the Summer Palace on its World Heritage List.

頤和園
頤和園是我國現存最完好、規模最宏大的古代園林。位於北京市海淀區境內，距天安門20餘公里，佔地290公頃。
頤和園原為封建帝王的行宮和花園，遠在金貞元元年 （1153年）即在這里修建「西山八院」之一的「金山行宮」。明弘治七年（1494年）修建了園靜寺，後皇室在此建成好山園。1664年清廷定都北京後，又將好山園更名為「瓮山行宮」。清乾隆年間，經過15年的修建工程，將該園改名為「清漪圓」。此時的清漪園，北自文昌閣至西宮門築有圍牆，東、南、西三面以昆明湖水為屏障，園內修建了許多亭台樓閣，橋廊齋榭，山清水秀，富麗堂皇。咸豐十年（1860年），英法聯軍瘋狂搶劫並焚燒了園內大部分建築，除寶雲閣（俗稱「銅亭」）智慧海、多寶 琉璃塔倖存外，珍寶被洗劫一空，建築夷為一片廢墟。光緒十四年（1888年）慈待太後挪用海軍經費3000萬兩白銀，在清漪園的廢墟上興建起頤和園。光緒二十六年（1900年）頤和園又遭八國聯軍的野蠻破壞，後慈禧又動用巨款重新修復。數百年來，這里一直是封建帝王、皇室的享樂之地，解放辟為公園。1961年國務院公布頤和園為全國重點文物保護單位。
頤和園包括萬壽山、昆明湖兩大部分，園內山水秀美，建築宏偉。全園有各式建築3000餘間，園內布局可分為政治、生活、游覽三個區域。政治活動區，以仁壽段為中心，是過去慈禧太後和光緒皇帝辦理朝事、會見朝臣、使節的地方。生活居住區，以玉瀾堂、宜芸館、樂壽堂為主體，是慈禧、光緒及後妃居住之地。風景游覽區，以萬壽山前山、後山、後湖、昆明湖為主， 是全園的主要組成部分。
在世界古典園林中享有盛譽的頤和園，布局和諧，渾然一體。在高60米的萬壽山前山的中央，縱向自低而高排列著排 雲門、排雲股、德輝殿、佛香閣、智慧海等一組建築，依山而立， 步步高升，氣派宏偉。以高大的佛香閣為主體，形成了全園的中心線。沿昆明湖北岸橫向而建的長廊，長728米，共273間， 像一條綵帶橫跨於萬壽山前，連結著東面前山建築群。長廊中有精美柁畫 14000多幅，素有「畫廊」之美稱。位於頤和園東北角，萬壽山東麓的諧趣園，具有濃重的江南園林特色，被譽為 「園中之園」。
佔全園總面積四分之三的昆明湖，湖水清澈碧綠，景色宜人。在廣闊的湖面上，有三個小島點綴，其主要景物是西堤、西堤六橋、東堤、南湖島、十七孔橋等。湖岸建有廓如亭、知春亭、鳳凰墩等秀美建築，其中位於湖西北岸的清晏舫（石訪）中西合璧，精巧華麗，是園中著名的水上建築。後山後湖，林茂竹青，景色幽雅，到處是松林曲徑，小橋流水，風格與前山迥然不同。山腳下的蘇州河，曲折蜿蜒，時狹時闊，頗具江南特色。在岸邊的樹叢中建有多寶琉璃塔。後山還有一座仿西藏建築——香岩宗印之閣，造型奇特。蘇州街原為宮內的民間買賣街，現已修復並向遊人開放。擁山抱水，絢麗多姿的頤和園，體現了我國造園藝術的高超水平。
