Welcome to the Grand Canyon!
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to one of the most breathtaking natural wonders in the world – the Grand Canyon! My name is [Your Name], and I will be your tour guide today. As we explore this magnificent site, I will provide you with interesting facts and stories about the Grand Canyon.
The Grand Canyon is located in the state of Arizona, USA, and it stretches over 277 miles in length, up to 18 miles in width, and reaches a depth of over a mile. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and attracts millions of visitors each year.
Our first stop will be the South Rim, which offers stunning panoramic views of the canyon. Here, you can walk along the Rim Trail, which is approximately 13 miles long and provides different vantage points to admire the canyon's beauty. Make sure to bring your camera to capture the magnificent landscapes!
Next, we will visit the Grand Canyon Village, the main hub of the South Rim. Here, you can explore various historic buildings, including the famous El Tovar Hotel, which was built in 1905 and offers a luxurious accommodation option with a spectacular view of the canyon. You can also visit the Kolb Studio, an art gallery that showcases the works of the Kolb brothers, who were among the first photographers to document the Grand Canyon.
Afterwards, we will make our way to the Desert View Watchtower, located at the eastern end of the South Rim. This 70-foot-tall tower was designed by Mary Colter, a renowned architect, and provides a unique vantage point to observe the canyon. Inside the tower, you can find Native American artwork and enjoy the breathtaking views from the top.
If time permits, we can take a short hike down into the canyon, but please note that it can be physically demanding and requires proper hiking gear. Alternatively, you can take a helicopter tour to get a bird's eye view of the canyon, or even go white water rafting along the Colorado River.
Before we conclude our tour, I would like to remind you to always stay on designated trails and respect the natural environment. The Grand Canyon is not only a geological wonder but also a delicate ecosystem that needs to be preserved for future generations.
Thank you for joining me today on this unforgettable journey through the Grand Canyon. I hope you enjoy your time here and create memories that will last a lifetime.

This is the palace museum; also know as the Purple Forbidden City. It is the largest and most well reserved imperial residence in China today. Under Ming Emperor Yongle, construction began in 1406. It took 14years to build the Forbidden City. The first ruler who actually lived here was Ming Emperor Zhudi. For five centuries thereafter, it continued to be the residence of23 successive emperors until 1911 when Qing Emperor Puyi was forced to abdicate the throne. In 1987, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization recognized the Forbidden City was a world cultural legacy.
It is believed that the Palace Museum, or Zi Jin Cheng (Purple Forbidden City), got its name from astronomy folklore, The ancient astronomers pided the constellations into groups and centered them around the Ziwei Yuan (North Star) . The constellation containing the North Star was called the Constellation of Heavenly God and star itself was called the purple palace. Because the emperor was supposedly the son of the heavenly gods, his central and dominant position would be further highlighted the use of the word purple in the name of his residence. In folklore, the term “an eastern purple cloud is drifting” became a metaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud was seen drifting eastward immediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher, LaoZi, to the Hanghu Pass. Here, purple is associated with auspicious developments. The word jin (forbidden) is self-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-limits to ordinary people.
The red and yellow used on the palace walls and roofs are also symbolic. Red represents happin.

Ladies and gentlemen:
The Palace Museum is located in the center of Beijing. It is also known as the Forbidden City in the old days. Actually it was the imperial palace for the emperors and served as both living quarters and the venue of the state administration in the Ming and Qing dynasties. Its name, on the one hand, comes from ancient Chinese astronomers' belief that God's abode or the Purple Palace, the pivot of the celestial world, is located in the Pole Star, at the center of the heavens . Hence, as the Son of God,
the emperor should live in the Purple City. On the other hand, except for palace maids, eunuchs and guards, ordinary the Forbidden City and the Purple City.
It took 14 years to complete the magnificent palace. Construction began in 1406 and finished in 1420. The following year, in 1421 the capital of the Ming Dynasty was moved from Nanjing to Beijing. Starting from the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty Zhu Di to the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty Pu Yi, altogether 24 emperors lived here for a total of 491 years. 14 of then were Ming emperors and 10 were Qing emperors.
The Forbidden City covers an area of 72 hectares with a total floor space of about 163,000 square meters. It is rectangular in shape, 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meters wide from east to west with a10-meter high city wall surrounded and encircled by a 52 meter-wide moat. At each corner of the surrounding wall, there is a magnificent watchtower which was heavily guarded in the old days.
The Forbidden City now consists of more than 90 palaces and courtyards, 980 buildings with rooms of 8,704. Most of the structures in the Forbidden City were made of wood with white marble, stone or brick foundations. The building materials were from parts of our country. The timber came from Sichuan, Guizhou, Guandxi, Hunan and Yunnan provinces in southwest China. But in the Qing Dynasty, the timbers were transported from northeast China. Other construction materials, including brick, stone and lime, were used by both Dynasties. The golden bricks that paved the halls were manufactured in Suzhou, refined bricks used to build the foundation of halls were made in Linqing, and lime came from Yizhou. White marble was provided regularly by Fangshan County and glazed tiles by Sanjiadian.
The Forbidden City can be pided into two parts: the Outer Court and the Inner Palace. The Outer Court consists of three main buildings where the emperors attended the grand of rear three main buildings and the six eastern palaces and six western palaces where the emperor used to handle daily affairs and the living quarters for the emperor, empress and imperial concubines to live in.
The Forbidden City is the best-preserved imperial palace in China and the largest ancient palatial structure in the world. In 1987 it was listed as the world cultural heritage by UNESCO.
The Meridian Gate is the main entrance to the Forbidden City. It is called Meridian Gate because the emperor believed that the meridian line went right through the Forbidden City and his imperial residence was the center of the whole universe. It is 35.6meters high with five towers on the top, so it is also nicknames as the “Five-Phoenix Tower.”
The Meridian Gate was the place to announce the new lunar year calendar on the first day of 10th lunar month every year. Lanterns would also be hung up on the Meridian Gate on the 15th day of the first lunar month during the Ming Dynasty, when all the officials would have a feast in the Forbidden City and ordinary citizens, when all the officials would have a fast in the Forbidden City and ordinary citizens would go to the Meridian Gate to look at the beautiful lanterns. When a general returned from battle, the ceremony of “Accepting Captives of War” was held here. The “Court Beating” also took place here.
The gate has five openings. The central passageway was for the emperor exclusively. But apart from the emperor, the empress could use the central passageway on the day of the imperial wedding ceremony. However, after the palace examination, the first top three outstanding scholars were allowed to go through the central gate. The high-ranking civil and military officials went in through the side gate on the east. The two smaller ones on both sides at the corner were for the lowranking officials. During the Palace Examination all the candidates went in from these two side-gates according to the odd number or even number.

Temple of Solitary Joy is located at inside west city gate of Ji County,Tianjin City. It is known for its refined architecture skill in Channel'sancient buildings and has got the reputation of Six Best. These are: Theearliest Dingshan Gate (Gate of Withstanding Hill) of the ground hall preservednow; The earliest Chiwei object on the Hill Gate preserved now; The earliestplane distribution which took pavilion as the center on the architecture plane;The biggest clay sculptured statue of Avalokiteavara inside a pavilion in China;The Avalokiteavara is also the most ancient high storeyed one; The more preciousfact is that the Temple of Solitary Joy has stood unscathed after thousand yearsof rain, snow, wind and frost and 28 big attacks, hence the most durable ancientMonastery of thousand years.
Entering the Temple , the first comes to sight is 10 m high gate, on thearch of which there hangs a horizontal inscribed board: Temple of Solitary Joy.The single eaves ground hall roof was the roof building form during the westernTsin (AD265-316) and Southern and Northern Dyansty (420-589) period, which wascalled Siadading in ancient time and now it is called big roof. On the two endsof the plane ridge, there are inward Chiweis. Chi denoted sparrow hawk inancient time, which is a kind of fierce bird. The stand base of the gate iscomparatively low, but the hall pinnacle is much higher above eaves and thepottery animal figures look sturdy; solemn and sturdy. There is no ceilinginside the pinnacle, therefor the painted beam and purlieus are visible. Thewhole piece is exquisitely wrought, simple arranged and skillfully done, forwhich people gasp in administration.
Crossing the gate, one comes to the core building - AvalokitesvaraPavilion, 23 m in height. Form outside appearance, it is two storeyed, butinside there is a hidden storey, thus three storeyed in fact. On the eavescorners, pottery unicorns are sculptured, on which little Buddha statues ride.Copper bells are hung under eaves corners, swaying with the wind, a speciallyrefined scene. The most attractive thing is the structure of Dougong (sets ofbrackets on top of the columns supporting the beams within and roof eaveswithout——each set consisting of tiers of outstretching arms called Gong,cushioned with trapezoidal blocks called Dou). It is made of overlapping Dougongshaped wood blocks and bow shaped horizontal wood bars by adopting 24 forms witheach layer stretching out as bracket, big in upper part and small in lower part,thinly scattered, steady and sturdy. It makes eaves of the pavilion look likeflying, far and deep in the sky, a beautiful and magnificent view.
Entering the Avalokitesvara Pavilion, the very sight is a huge standingAvalokitesvara Statue. If one stands by it, his height is only up to her ankle.The Statue, 16.27 m in height, is the biggest clay sculpture of Avalokitesvarain China. Two statues of attendant Bodhisattvas under the knee of Avalokitesvaraare also 3 m in height. On the crown of the head of Avalokitesvara, there are 10small Avalokitesvare's heads, hence it is called 11 faces Avalokitesvara.Reviewing around the inner part of the pavilion, one can discover that pillarsof high and low storeys are not directly linked through, but the pillars of theupper storey are ed into the arch head of that of lower storey. The upperstorey of the pavilion is in a form of six corners empty well, while the lowerstorey is in a form of square empty well. This kind of structure is not onlybeautiful and strong, but also adds the space of the upper part of Budhastatues. On the four walls inside the pavilion, colorful murals are painted, thetheme of which is the images of 16 Arhats and 2 Ming Dynasty Emperors, which arethe earliest subjects of Buddhism. On he murals, 2 m high Arhats with 3 headsand 4 arms are extremely lifelike and Ming Emperors on the four walls are fullof power and grandeur. On the upper part of the murals, there are mountains,forest, cloud and river, while on the lower part, there are paintings of secularthemes with vivid and natural lines, which embody the superb the skill and artsof painting of ancient Buddhism in China.
