中国城记:中山路为何遍布全国

　　The national park encompasses an area of 80,000 square meters overtaking a large hillside of the Purple Mountain. The park itself is beautiful and lush filled with maple, gingko and pine trees and emotes both traditional Chinese and modern design sensibilities. The mausoleum itself sits atop the hill overlooking the park. To ascend the 392 steps to reach the chamber where Zhongshan’s tomb lies is no easy task but the long climb up is well rewarded with a spectacular view。

　　作为国家森林公园，南京中山陵景区占地辽阔，绵延于紫金山麓，满山遍布枫树、银杏和松树，芳树垂绿叶、青云自逶迤。中山陵依山而建，结构严整，观之而生一股浩然之气，展现出了中国传统和现代元素相结合的设计美感。自博爱坊登392级台阶，可拜谒孙中山陵墓，亦可俯瞰翠色，一览无限美景。

　　When inside the mausoleum a large marble sculpture of a seated Zhongshan (Yatsen) surrounded by inscriptions of the constitution of the Republic promoting his ideals of nationalism, democracy and the people’s livelihood can be seen. By stepping further inside and through a small door you enter the rotunda where his sarcophagus lies and another marble sculpture of the leader lying in peace resides. A hush fills the room as you walk around looking down to see one of China’s greatest leaders。

　　陵墓里面是巨大的孙中山坐立时的大理石雕像，周围环绕着中华民国宪法的题词，传播了孙中山的三民主义，即“民族、民权、民生”的思想。进到陵墓里面，穿越一个小门，是一个圆形大厅，那儿有孙中山的石棺，另一个大理石制成的孙中山像安详地放着。当你俯视中国伟大领袖的雕像时，房间里一片寂静，心中的崇敬油然而生。
