成都着名景点英文介绍(可做导游词)宽巷子 宽巷子是成都遗留下来的较成规模的清朝古街道，与大慈寺、文殊院一起并称为成都 三大历史文化名城保护街区。宽巷子与窄巷子是成都这个古老又年轻的城市往昔的缩影，一 个记忆深处的符号。当游人伴着夕阳，望着炊烟，走在黄昏中的巷子里，一种久违的老城区 市民化生活得场景一一浮现在眼前。 Being in the list of Chengdu Historical and Cultural Protection Project, Broad and Narrow Alley is composed of broad alley, narrow alley and across alleys, among which, there are a lot of traditional courtyards, or Siheyuan. Some very old alleys in Chengdu where some important people had lived. After its reconstruction, the Broad and Narrow Alley has been reopened to pubic and is now, one of the hottest tourist destination in Chengdu. A bit about its history According to documents, Officers lived in those broad alleys, while the Eight Flag members lived in a narrow alley that was parallel to the broad one. The courtyards among the alleys were developed pretty well with the development of the Qing Dynasty. However, the alleys were constructed into western-styled architectures at the late Qing Dynasty; and during the period of the Republic of Chinathe owners of the courtyards were changed into some noble families, and ever since then, the structure of the alleys remained till now. Why the alleys have been descended? Because they were so unnoticeable. The south area to the Shao City was not a good area, and was not on reachable transportation lines either. We can say that this area is the forgotten area of the city construction. The imperial city has disappeared; city walls have been destroyed; most of the city architectures are vanishing too; nowadays, Broad and Narrow Alley seems to be carrying the responsibility that it shouldn't carry. Broad and Narrow Alley is the last remaining part of the old Chengdu. The discovery of the alley made people realize the value of it. In 2003, reconstruction was started and the alley was gradually opened to the public. Reconstruction The dispute about the reconstruction was pretty severe. In 2005, a dramatic scene can be seen along the street: some artist sit around, drinking tea and talking, while right beside them was the loud machine working for the reconstruction. How to reconstruct it? There were two ways. One was to emphasize on its protection by the government, but the government couldnt afford it; the other was all about business, but the protection of the alley could not be fulfilled. Theres got to be a way in between, which was to balance the residence area and business area. At the beginning, people thought about imitating Shanghais style; however, this idea was denied because the structures of the two cities are completely different. Shanghai has more western architecture while Chengdu only has traditional layout, which didnt have the qualification to be like Shanghai. Therefore, the protection to the origin style of architectures idea was passed. The layout, style of architectures had to be remained, and all the construction material had to be traditional. To balance the residence and business area, a lot of people had to move out. After the reconstruction, there were only 100 households (out of 900) that remained. Those who remained here can be divided into 3 kinds of people: the rich, departments that belonged to the government and those who really had strong feelings about this alley.
