如何用24小时玩转伦敦

2011-04-08来源:新浪教育

  There is no shortage of tourist staples: Buckingham Palace, Piccadilly Circus, Marble Arch, Big Ben, the iconic red double-decker bus. If you've got just 24 hours, here are 10 unmissable places to observe Londoners in their natural habitat。

  伦敦从来就不缺乏观光的景点:白金汉宫,皮卡迪利广场,大理石拱门,大本钟,标志性红色双层大巴。如果你有一整天的时间游览伦敦,以下是十大最贴近伦敦生活的景点,不可错过哦!

  1.Tate Modern  泰特现代美术馆

  Yet this gallery devoted to modern art effortlessly pulls in the locals as well as the tourists, and ranks among London's most-visited attractions。

  泰特现代美术馆致力于现代艺术,但是它却成为当地人和游客最受欢迎的景点。

  2. Marylebone Stroll  马里波恩

  What's the nattiest neighborhood in London? Not leafy Notting Hill, which lost its claim to cool after Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts frolicked through it in the eponymous

  1999 rom-com. And not fashionable Hoxton or Shoreditch, even with their spiky-haired, skinny-jeans-clad tribes of cool kids. They're all worth a look, but the real cool resides in Marylebone, an area so confident of its charms that it doesn't need to broadcast them。

  伦敦最整洁的地方在哪里,不是诺丁山,不是霍斯顿,不是索迪治,当然他们都值得观光。但是还有一个充满魅力的地方值得推荐,那就是马里波恩。

  3. The London Eye  伦敦眼

  Yes, it's a giant ferris wheel, and, yes, it's for tourists — but it's a worth a spin. Once you've boarded your glass-sided capsule — each capsule holds 25 people — it will be a half-hour before you get back down. Creeping

  along at 0.6 miles (0.9 km) per hour, it's an excruciatingly slow flight, as a trip on the London Eye is called, but from the top of the 443-foot (135-m) wheel you'll be rewarded with gloriously unimpeded views over London。

  就是这个巨大的摩天轮被誉为“伦敦眼”,对所有观光客来讲花上半个小时上去转一圈是非常值得的。虽然它转得很慢,但是你可以欣赏到伦敦无比壮丽的景观。

  4. Inns of Court  律师学院

  The Inns were first established in the 14th century and housed in large, walled compounds; today, judges and barristers still work, study and sometimes live in these enchanted precincts。

  建于14世纪,律师学院被高大的围墙包围,现在还有法官和律师在里面工作和学习

  5. J. Sheekey J. Sheekey海鲜馆

  If you like your dinner with a side order of celebrity, head to J. Sheekey, a fish restaurant with leather banquettes, paneled walls and an impressive art collection, in London's theaterland。

  如果你想品尝伦敦地道的附菜,去J. Sheekey吧!J. Sheekey是伦敦一家有名的海鲜馆,除了食物美味外,餐馆内部的装修很也很有特色,其艺术收藏品也令人印象深刻。
