Foreign scenic tour guide words

Notre Dame de Paris overlooks the Seine.

The Seine River is the mother river of Paris, which brings not only the water of life, but also culture and a great culture that embraces the world to this historic city. The Seine is neither wide nor narrow, and the current is neither urgent nor slow. It has flowed quietly for thousands of years, and many poets eulogize it in the most beautiful language. The Seine River is winding, picturesque and full of romance, and its banks are shaded by trees. People either walk in the shade of trees or rest on the shore, and get leisure and satisfaction in the cool at night. Even in the evening of winter, Parisians can't forget to take time to go to the Seine for recreation, walking and walking their dogs. They greet the tourists on the passing cruise ship with a smile, and the people on board will happily respond to the greetings from strangers in various languages.

The Seine River flows quietly through Paris, dividing the city into two different humanistic worlds. On the right bank is the political center of Paris, including the former Louvre Palace and today's President Elysee Palace. It is elegant and has supreme power, including the world's most beautiful Champs Elysé es, the Vendome Square, which is a collection of fine products, and the Concorde Square with the spirit of kings. Although the left bank is not as gorgeous as the right bank, there are many scholars and famous schools, including Sorbonne University and French Academy. This area is also called the Latin quarter, because historically, teachers and students there had to talk and write in Latin. 1968, the "May Storm" that shocked the world happened. The students opened the Shi Zhuan on the ground and threw it at the police symbolizing power. At that time, the headlines of the world's major newspapers were violent and bloody clashes between French college students and Paris police in the Latin quarter of Paris.

Notre Dame de Paris, located on the island of Dai Xi on the Seine River, is resplendent and magnificent. The pilgrims in the church are like clouds, and the candlelight gives people a solemn and mysterious feeling. The incense here is probably the most popular in France or Europe, no less than St. Peter's Church in the Vatican. Sometimes, we can see priests attending mass, sprinkling holy water on the foreheads of good men and women who come to pray and drawing crosses on their chests. Every Sunday, Notre Dame will also arrange priests to introduce the history of Notre Dame. Every Christmas and New Year, it is even more busy. Catholics from all over France and even Europe lit a candle before coming to this altar, and then sat down quietly to talk with God. But to get such an opportunity, you must queue up in advance. After working in France for many years, whether on Christmas Eve or New Year's Eve, I always "look at the courtyard and sigh" at the gate of Notre Dame de Paris because of lack of patience and courage, and I lost the opportunity to talk to God again and again. However, for most readers, what matters is not the incense of Notre Dame de Paris, but the inspiration of Hugo's masterpiece Notre Dame de Paris and the movie of the same name, especially the fate of the gypsy girl Esmeralda and the ugly bell ringer quasimodo.

Along Notre Dame de Paris, we walked on to the Louvre, which was like an elegant young woman staring at many admirers with Mona Lisa's smile. The Louvre was originally the palace of France. Since 1 190, 50 kings and queens have lived here. Now it is the largest museum in the world, with a collection of 400,000 rare treasures from all over the world, including the Mona Lisa, the brokeback Venus and the goddess of victory, which we in China call "the three treasures of the town hall". As a museum, the Louvre has a history of more than 200 years and is one of the oldest museums in Europe. The pyramids designed by Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei imbued the ancient Louvre with modern flavor and oriental wisdom. Later, the French made fun of me and said that a foreign architect had erected an oriental building in the French palace and the highest hall of world art, which made the introverted and proud French feel very uncomfortable.

Yes It is in retaliation for this "revenge with one arrow" that Paul Andrew, a famous French architect, sprouted the French-style National Center for the Performing Arts in the antique Tiananmen Square.

Across the Louvre River is the Orsay Museum. It used to be a railway station, 1900 was built at the Paris World Expo, and was later converted into a museum of modern art under President Mitterrand. This is really an incredible idea, only the French can think of it. The reconstructed railway station has become an art palace in Paris, second only to the Louvre. For many China audiences, the artworks here are more intimate than the Louvre, because they are closer to our times. A large number of works by French impressionist masters, such as Monet, Manet, Van Gogh and Cezanne, often make our compatriots linger. Many friends from China told me that people in China are more likely to accept the Orsay Museum than the Louvre. I think this statement is absolutely correct. Because the works of Orsay Museum are close to us, it is the easiest to understand, which is also reflected in Japanese tourists.

If we go further west along the Seine River, it is the magnificent Place de la Concorde, whose regal demeanor and artistic exquisiteness are rare in the world square. The square was built in 1757 according to the design of the famous architect Cabriel. Because there is a statue of Louis XV riding in the center of the square, it was called "Louis XV Square" at that time. 1793 During the French Revolution, the people of Paris destroyed the bronze statue of Louis XV and sent Louis XVI and his wife to the guillotine here. 1795 Square was officially renamed "Concorde Square". In the center of the square stands an Egyptian obelisk, which is 23 meters high and has a history of more than 3,400 years. This is a famous cultural relic that Louis Philippe moved from Luxor, Egypt in 183 1. The ancient writing on the monument records the deeds of Pharaoh Ramses II. There is a fountain on each side of the stone tablet, and Poseidon is holding big fish with different expressions. The water column ejected from the fish mouth can sometimes reflect colorful rainbows in the sun, which is really beautiful. I found that young overseas Chinese men and women in Paris especially like to take wedding photos here. Under the sunshine and colorful steam, it is really romantic.

Standing under the Egyptian obelisk, behind us is the Louvre, the largest art palace in the world. Directly in front of us is the Champs Elysé es, the most beautiful street in the world, and at its end is the Arc de Triomphe ordered by Napoleon to make people remember their brilliant achievements. I am sure that this is the favorite place for tourists to take pictures, because it is a beautiful central axis and a beautiful perspective, connecting the Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe and the arch of Taifang Temple in the distance, echoing each other from afar. If you have time, I suggest you take a walk along this central axis to feel the grandeur and warmth of Xiang Street, and then count Napoleon's immortal achievements on the Arc de Triomphe and the names of Napoleon's 588 favorite generals on the inner wall. This is already the most symbolic place in France. Every major festival or special celebration, such as 1998, when France won the World Cup, French people would come here to have fun. Every July 14, the French President will come here to lay a wreath.
