Welcome to the Bund of Shanghai. I'm your tour guide today_________ You can call me little. Today's itinerary will be provided by me for you. I hope my service 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 the opening of Shanghai in 1843, the first consul of British Consul in Shanghai took the place of the Bund, and designated the Bund.
In the 1920s and 1930s, Linjiang built towering classical style buildings around 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 and opening up came to Shanghai, and the municipal government began to carry out large-scale transformation of the Bund, forming the city we see today The Bund scenic spot is like a wonderful staff. It is composed of "solidified music" World Architecture Expo and "flowing music" Huangpu River. Our friends to watch these western classical style buildings, not only to pay attention to its external beauty. And we should appreciate them as sculpture art.
In this "solidified music" music, 26 buildings, the buildings are scattered, just like the beating keys on the piano. The music is composed of prelude, three climaxes, epilogue and other movements.
Its prologue is undertaken by the weather signal station in front of the flood control wall on the Bund. This weather signal station is an ancient architecture of "atuonupo" style. Its main functions are as follows: first, we can have a look at the signs of various shapes hanging on the mast on the top of its tower. This is to play the role of weather forecast. According to the meteorological information measured by Xujiahui weather station, it will be used for the fifth time in the day In order to ensure the safety of navigation, the chessmen of different colors are hung on the mast to announce the wind, waves and other meteorological information outside Wusongkou to the ships. Second, we can observe that there is a big ball on the mast that can rise and fall up and down. 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 its original 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 information communication science, there are so many kinds of clocks that they can only retire. In October 1993, in the second phase of the comprehensive renovation project of the Bund, in order to protect this ancient building with more than 80 years of history, it was moved 20 meters from its original position to the northeast as a whole, and it was decorated to make it look new. At night, with the light of blue and white, such as a huge crystal clear "Yuzhu", beautiful and moving.
The climax in the solidified music is divided into three parts: the first part is composed of three buildings: Asia building, Shanghai Federation and China Commercial Bank building. Due to the time constraint, I would like to introduce 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 was originally a place for British expatriates to have leisure and entertainment. The building is Renaissance style. In the East facade of the building, three horizontal sections are adopted, and the front door is taken as the vertical axis. The decorative patterns of the left and right doors and windows are symmetrical, making the whole building harmonious, symmetrical and stable. In addition, we can see that the third and fourth floors of the building are supported by six Ionic columns, which are slender, about 9 to 10 times as high as the bottom diameter. The columns are banded, and there are curled up vortices on their heads. They are the symbol of "female beauty". There are Baroque tower pavilions 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 looks like a perfect work of art in the hands of a sculptor. In addition, the interior decoration of the building is also very elegant and luxurious. There is a 34 meter long wine bar covered with Italian marble, which is known as the longest bar in the Far East. There is also a semicircular iron fence elevator on the north side of the lobby. This is also the earliest elevator in Shanghai at that time. Now many TV dramas reflecting old Shanghai are shot here. The decoration of 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 classical colonnade at the front door. This is the first climax of solidified music.
The second climax of solidified music is composed of HSBC building and customs building. It is the most representative building in the World Architecture 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 Shanghai People's government and then used by Pudong Development Bank. The British claim that this building is the most exquisite one from the Suez Canal to the Bering Strait. It covers the widest area, has the widest facade and is the largest building. The whole building presents the classical style of Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries and is an ancient Roman building. On the ground floor of the building are three Roman stone arches. From the second floor to the fourth floor of the building, there are six Greek Corinthian pillars. This kind of column appeared in the prosperous city of Corinth in the Greek era. On the top of the column, there is a bunch of leaves and flower vines, which is shaped like a flower basket and beautifully carved. It is a symbol of "the rich". On the top of the column, there is a Baroque spire. The most noteworthy thing is that it also has three rare treasures: the first one is a pair of bronze lions on both sides 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 North Dynasty is closed, which has the meaning of bank funds. It is said that the model was destroyed after it was cast in England, making it out of print in the world. The second one is a huge mosaic mural on the roof of the room, which is rare in the world, with a total area of 200 square meters. The third is that there 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 of pure natural boulders. It is said that there are only six in the world. There are four here, which shows its value. (the other two are in the Louvre in France). So that the whole building palace, which commands more than 20 buildings nearby, showing a gorgeous and solemn style. It makes it the most eye-catching in the whole Bund complex.
The customs building was built in 1920___ It costs 4.3 million taels of silver in 2000. The building is eclectic. The big clock at the top of the building is made in imitation of the big clock of the parliament building in London, with a silver price of 20 yuan___ The remaining two. It is the largest clock 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. Three meters. There are three pendulums of up to two tons in the clock. The clock opens three times a week, and it takes four people to wind each time for one hour. 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 be played.
The two buildings, known as sister buildings, are Shanghai's landmark buildings. The HSBC building is graceful and elegant, while the customs building is vigorous and straight. The two buildings stand side by side and complement each other. They share the second climax of solidified music.
The third climax of solidified music is composed of Huizhong Hotel, Shaxun building and Bank of China building. The theme of this movement is modernism.
Huizhong hotel is located at the intersection of Zhongshan East Road and Nanjing Road. Its sixth floor is at 23 Nanjing East Road. 1920___ Built in, it has a beautiful appearance, with white fair faced brick as the wall and red brick as the waistline. It is known as "Bund beauty". This was the site of three important meetings. First, 1920___ The second is the 1996 Shanghai International Conference, and the third is 1920___ Representatives of 17 provinces of China held a meeting to welcome Dr. Sun Yat Sen back to China to take up the post of interim president.
Shaxun building and Bank of China Building Shaxun building were called "the first building in the Far East" because of the luxurious interior decoration at that time. Now it's the North Building of the peace hotel. The outer image is capitalized with the English letter A. The Bank of China building is the only one built by Chinese in the World Architecture Expo. It is 60 cm lower than Shaxun building. There is another story. When the Chinese capitalists thought that the Bund was full of high-rise buildings of different forms built by Western powers, which reflected the strong economic strength of the powers of various countries, in order not to let us Chinese lose face, the Chinese bureaucratic capitalism also decided to build a building, which was higher than that of other countries, so the original plan was to build 34 floors, but later the owner of Shaxun building was also affected He said, "you Chinese people don't have any status. How can you build a building higher than ours?" so he filed a lawsuit in London, England. As you can imagine, the Chinese people lost the lawsuit. Later, they could only build 15 floors, 60 cm lower than the Shaxun building. But the Chinese are still unconvinced that "there are policies at the top and there are countermeasures at the bottom". Your building won't let me surpass you. I put up two national flags on the bottom of the building. These two chess sticks are higher than your Shaxun building. You should have nothing to say this time? So the two chess sticks we see now are authentication. The shape of Bank of China building has Chinese national characteristics, the bottom of the building is slightly tilted, and the cornice is decorated with a bucket arch. The window frame is a deformed form of Chinese coins.
The finale of solidified music is played by the Oriental Bank and Shanghai building.
The Oriental Bank is a baroque building. The whole building is full of concave convex feeling and strong contrast. Now it is the building protection unit in Shanghai. Broadway building is a modern style, and it is the best place to enjoy the scenery of Huangpu River, Bund and Pudong. Premier Zhou once accompanied many foreign heads of state and distinguished guests to visit. In the 1990s, the company won the title of "top ten safety units" for foreign hotels.
Well, dear friends, this is the end of the whole explanation of what is called the frozen music Bund. I hope I can leave you good memories.

Hello, everyone! Welcome to Shanghai. I'm a tour guide of Shanghai travel agency. 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 and Suzhou River in the mother river of Shanghai. It looks across the river from the Pearl River scenic spot in Pudong. It is located on the 1300 sides of the Zhongshan East Road.
The main tourist attractions in the Bund are known as the highest customs building in the "World Architecture Expo". The largest building in the Bund is the 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 Chinese elements, the mother river, the Yellow River Pujiang, the Whampoa Park in Shanghai, and the four square completed on the eve of World Expo. (the surrounding attractions include Broadway building and Bund source which is undergoing comprehensive renovation. )
The Bund, formerly known as "Huangpu Beach", was a beach along the river in the northeast of Chengxiang, Shanghai. After the opening of Shanghai port in 1843, the first British Consul in Shanghai, Balfour, took a fancy to this place. In 1845, according to the so-called "Shanghai land charter" published by Shanghai Daotai, 800 mu of land including the Bund was designated as the British concession, and the roads along the river were called "Huangpu Road and Huangpu Beach Road". Around the beginning of last century, there were domestic and foreign banks moving in, and gradually developed into "Oriental Wall Street". It was not until 1945 that it was renamed zhongshangdong 1st road.
After liberation, especially in the 1990s and 1920s___ On the eve of the World Expo 2010, the Bund experienced two large-scale renovation. It is worth mentioning that: after the transformation on the eve of the World Expo, the Bund tourist area has comprehensively improved the environmental quality of the Bund waterfront area, highlighted the historical and cultural features of "universal architecture", and fully interpreted the theme of "Better City, better life", making the Bund the most iconic and classic urban landscape area in Shanghai.
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 spot in Shanghai urban tourism, which integrates human landscape and natural landscape, complements western classical customs and Chinese modern customs. It is a must for domestic and foreign tourists to visit Shanghai.
Good, ladies and gentlemen. Due to the time limit, the general situation of the Bund tourist area is here for the time being. Next, let's visit the scenic spots.
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, I would 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 are the magnificent buildings and spacious Zhongshan Road known as the "World Architecture Expo". On your right hand side are the sparkling Huangpu River and Pudong Lujia financial and trade zone with bright future. In front of you is a new and unique sightseeing area. The buildings, Zhongshan Road, sightseeing area, Huangpu River and Lujiazui are like the staff in the music score, while the industrious Shanghai people are like strings of inter symbol, forming the latest and most beautiful movement. Welcome to all the guests.
In short, it used to be a grassy wasteland outside the old city of Shanghai.
Although these buildings with European Renaissance style are not designed by the same designer or built in the same era, their architectural style is so harmonious and unified that it seems to be natural. From the the Bund road to the outer white road bridge, the length of the arc is only 1.5 kilometers, and row upon row of 52 buildings of different styles, including English, French, ancient Greek, etc. At that time, many foreign banks, associations and consulates gathered here, known as "Wall Street" in the East, forming a historical miniature of the semi colonial and semi feudal society in old Shanghai.
Please see, Dongfeng Hotel No.2 on the new Bund used to be a very famous British club. It is a typical British classical building. The building is 6 stories high (including basement). There is a lookout Pavilion at the north and south ends of the roof. The interior decoration is very gorgeous. The first floor bar used to be proud of its 110.7-foot bar, which is the longest in the East. Now KFC is located in the bar.
Before the new Bund 12, it was the famous "HSBC Bank". The building was built in 1923, which is an antique Greek style dome building. The building is a rectangular building close to square, with five stories high and a half spherical top layer. There are seven stories at the top of the building and a steel frame structure. The interior of the building is decorated with various reception rooms in the United States, Britain, France, Russia and Japan. This building was once regarded by the British as one of the most exquisite buildings from the Suez Canal to the Bering Strait in the Far East.
The building next to HSBC is the Shanghai customs building, a 19th-century retro building, built in 1927, which is rare in the world today. The clock on the top of the building can be seen all around. It plays a short tune every 15 minutes. 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 customs building are affectionately called "sister buildings" in Shanghai, and they are still one of the important symbols of Shanghai.
The two buildings at the entrance of Nanjing East Road are called peace hotel. The south facing building was built in 1906. It was called Huizhong hotel at that time. It is the earliest existing hotel in Shanghai. It can be used as a historical building, belonging to the Renaissance of British culture. The biggest feature of the building is that the facade is made of red brick with waist line and white wall brick with veneer. From a distance, it looks solemn and elegant with unique style, which is a rare masterpiece.
These buildings on the Bund are the crystallization of the industrious wisdom of the Chinese working people, and also reflect the plunder and invasion of Shanghai by the western colonists. Nowadays, in order to let people know the history of these buildings, the Chinese and English nameplates are hung in front of each building.
As for the Bund, the name given to her by Shanghai people has changed with the passage of time. Shanghai people call the Bund before liberation the old Bund and after liberation the Bund. Now people praise it as the new Bund. There have been scenes of seizing the Bund many times in history, but each time has a completely different historical significance. Since the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the strategic focus of China's reform and opening up has also changed from south to north. The development and revitalization of Pudong has brought Shanghai to the forefront of China's reform and opening up. The spring breeze has awakened Shanghai Bund, which has been sleeping for many years. Chinese and foreign financial institutions have also seized the Bund. Shanghai has made a major move to "clean up the nest and attract Phoenix", replacing the houses on the Bund Financial Street, 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 foreign tourists. 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 the appearance of the Bund, the Shanghai People's government takes the Bund as a key point to transform. The road in front of us is called Zhongshan Road. It is named in memory of Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the pioneer of China's democratic revolution. It is also part of the comprehensive transformation of the Bund. The road is 826m long and 45m wide with 6 to 10 lanes. This wide traffic line is not only limited to the Bund area, but also extends with the pace of reform and opening up. It starts from Jiangwan Wujiaochang in the north and ends at Nanpu Bridge in the south. By the beginning of the next century, the North-South Corridor will be 15 kilometers long and will become a landmark of Shanghai tourism.
The riverside road we are taking now is quite unique. It not only integrates culture and greening, but also is a good place for people to practice writing and martial arts in the morning, a place for tourists at home and abroad to visit in the daytime, and an ideal place for lovers to have a love talk in the evening. It is said that many foreign friends have come to experience life.
Ladies and gentlemen, strolling in the new Bund Sightseeing Area, do you feel that the new Bund not only has a new look, but also has a strong artistic atmosphere in the bustling city. Let's see: an artistic landscape with the theme of "for tomorrow" is set on the Bund of Yan'an East Road, embracing with six columns and combining with the meteorological signal station with a history of more than 80 years to form a group of scenery. The customs building and the electronic waterfall clock are also quite new. The electronic waterfall clock is a ladder type, 27 meters long and 3.5 meters high, with 10 full steps. The whole operation process is controlled by computer. There are more than 1000 jets of water in various colors of Arabic numerals, which makes the world so far away and so close to each other. The tourist area has become a scenic line of Shanghai style culture that can accommodate hundreds of rivers.
Huangpu Park is facing the famous Huangpu River at home and abroad. "The yellow water in Huanglongpu on the moon" vividly depicts the color of Huangpu River. Jiangpu river is the mother river of Shanghai. It originates from Taihu Lake in Wuxi. It is the longest, widest and deepest river in Shanghai, with a total length of 114 km, an average width of 400 m and a depth of 7-9 M. Its original name is Dongjiang, also known as chunshenjiang and huangxiejiang. It is said that in the 20th century___ Many years ago, Shanghai belonged to the state of Chu at that time. At that time, there was a great general named Huang Xie in the state of Chu. He was very talented in governing the country. He was appointed 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 upper reaches of Dongjiang River at that time, he led the people of Shanghai to dredge and modify the waterway, which greatly developed Shanghai's water transportation and agriculture. In order to commemorate Huang Xie's achievements, later generations changed the name of Dongjiang River to "chunshenjiang" and "huangxiepu", which was not officially named "Huangpu River" until the Southern Song Dynasty.
Overlooking the other bank, Pudong Lujiazui financial and trade zone and Puxi Bund are facing each other. Its functions are finance, trade and foreign services. It will be the core and symbol of new Shanghai. "East Bund" Binjiang Avenue, with a total length of 2500 meters, integrates tourism, sightseeing and entertainment, along which there are six distinctive squares. Although I can only smell the rumbling sound of piling, it is the most gorgeous movement on the staff and predicts a better future for the Bund.

The Bund, located on the Bank of Huangpu River in the Central District of Shanghai, is a scenic spot in Shanghai and a must for tourists to Shanghai. The Bund, also known as zhongshangdong 1st Road, is about 1.5 km long. Facing Huangpu River in the East and 52 buildings with different styles, such as Gothic, Roman, Baroque, Chinese and western wall style, in the west, are known as the "World Architecture Expo Group".
Facing the open mother river, Huangpu River, the Bund leans back on the buildings with rigorous modeling and different styles. Because of its unique geographical location and its influence on Shanghai and even China in the field of economic activities in the past century, it has a very rich cultural connotation. The Bund's riverside, levee, green belt and beautiful buildings constitute 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, it is a bustling tourist attraction; in the evening, it is a place for lovers to fall in love. When the lights start to shine, the buildings on the Bund are resplendent, like crystal palaces, which make tourists at home and abroad marvel. Strolling here, we appreciate the style of Huangpu River, the mother river of Shanghai, overlook the new appearance of Lujiazui area on the other side of Pudong, feel the different flavor of metropolitan gardens among green trees and flower beds, and enjoy the rare fresh air and sunshine in a metropolis.
The Bund got its name
Huangpu River is the largest river flowing through Shanghai. The source of Huangpu River is located in Longwangshan nature reserve, Anji, Zhejiang Province. 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 water level drop in a day can reach more than 4 meters. In case of astronomical spring tide, the water level drop will be even greater. (as for the source of Huangpu River, 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, which can not be regarded as a complete source. Only by finding the source of Taihu Lake can we find the real source of Huangpu River. After investigation and research, Xitiaoxi, located at the foot of Longwang mountain, has a drainage area of 2800 square kilometers with a length of 145 kilometers, 1.8 billion cubic meters of water. Its water supply accounts for 70% of Taihu Lake's water supply, making it the first water source of Taihu Lake. Longwang mountain is the source of Huangpu River. )
150 years ago, Shanghai was only a medium-sized County along the coast of the south of the Yangtze River. The shipping industry was very underdeveloped, and people did not have the necessity or ability to build embankments along the river. Therefore, most of the river banks were natural beaches except the Huangpu River bank in Dongmen. At ebb tide, the river water stagnates in the center of the riverbed, exposing a large area of beach. At high tide, the river never crossed the bank. Huangpu River is the main channel of Shanghai. Because the river is wide and the water is fast, ships going against the river have to pull their boats. For hundreds of years, the track of the trackers has stepped on 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 is generally called "Li", and the downstream of the river is called "Wai". For example, people in Shanghai today are used to call Hanyang road and Bridge on Hongkou port "Lihong bridge", Changzhi Road and bridge "Zhonghong bridge", and Daming Road and bridge "Waihong bridge", which is named according to the location of the river where the bridge is located. Similarly, the first bridge of the Suzhou River entering the Huangpu River estuary is called "Wai Bai Du bridge". 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). For example, 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 urban area 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 at the exit of Lujiabang, so the Shanghainese take Lujiabang as the boundary. Its upstream is called "lihuangpu" and its downstream is called "waihuangpu". The beaches in lihuangpu are called "lihuangpu Beach" for short, and the beaches in waihuangpu are called "waihuangpu Beach" for short.
After 1840, Shanghai, as one of the five trading ports, opened to the outside world. In 1845, the British colonialists seized the Bund and established the British concession. In 1849, French colonists also seized the Bund and established the French concession. From then on to the early 1940s, the Bund was occupied by the British concession and the French concession, and was called "the Bund of the British concession" and "the Bund of France" respectively. The Ministry of industry of the public concession and the Council of the French Concession are their highest municipal organizations and leading bodies respectively.
The concession is like a sovereign area, and the Western powers operate and manage it in their way. With the construction of the concession, the Bund became the earliest and most prosperous place in the concession. In the early days, the Bund was a center of foreign trade, where there were many foreign companies and trade flourished. Since the late 19th century, many foreign and Chinese banks have been established on the Bund, which has become Shanghai's "Financial Street" and also known as "Oriental Wall Street".
As a result, the Bund has become a "geomantic treasure land". Owning a piece of land on the Bund is not only a symbol of wealth, but also a symbol of reputation. After commercial banks and financial enterprises occupied a place in the Bund, they built the company building. Most of the buildings on the Bund have been rebuilt for three or more times. Architects from all over the world have shown their skills here, making the Bund, which is not large in area, gather more than 20 buildings of different periods, different countries and different styles. Therefore, the Bund is also known as the "World Architecture Expo".
For more than a hundred years, the Bund has always appeared in front of the world as a symbol of Shanghai. It is the pride of the people of Shanghai. It shows the world the culture of Shanghai and the excellent ability of integrating foreign civilization with local civilization, innovating and developing.
