上海外灘 (繁體中文)
上海外灘的歷史 想像置身於泥濘的河岸。現在,再想像一個幾乎被世界上所有國家觸及過的地方、一個繁榮的商業和文化交流的誕生地、一個蒼翠繁茂的建築奇蹟。現在,想像一下在不同的時期它們都屬於同一個地方。這就是上海外灘, 曾經是上海黃浦江邊上一條泥濘的船道,現在,在中國被稱為東方華爾街或外灘。在盎格魯-印度語中,外灘意指一片泥濘的海濱堤岸。然而,上海外灘從泥濘開始經歷了漫長的發展。外灘已成為上海遊客和專業人士必看的景點之一。對於歷史和攝影愛好者來說,外灘也絕對是個不容錯過的地方。 夜幕降臨,站在這個1.5公里長的建築物前,你可以想像到1842年第一次鴉片戰爭之後,外國列強進入上海是如何開始打造這個建築群。外灘是英國的第一個殖民地,很快地周圍開始出現顯眼的英國、法國、美國、義大利、俄羅斯、德國、日本、荷蘭和比利時的西式銀行和貿易公司以及俄羅斯和英國的領事館。隨後,在19世紀和20世紀,開放的港口優勢使上海成為亞洲領先的城市、充滿活力的大都市和繁榮的金融中心。上海猶如一個時鐘、一個視覺奇蹟,同時也是在殖民時代中上海的現存證據。沿著外灘漫步,你會見證一座栩栩如生的19世紀殖民歷史博物館,這讓外灘成為上海旅途中必看的景點。 環境 與外灘隔黃浦江相望的是上海的金融區陸家嘴,陸家嘴位於浦東黃浦江的東側。這座象徵性土地上的標誌性建築有東方明珠電視塔、金茂大廈、上海環球金融中心和上海中心大廈。從外灘往下看,浦東地標建築的天際線構成了美麗的風景線,適合遊客拍照。 規劃你的旅途 遊覽外灘及其所有景點大概需要您一到兩個小時。考慮到遊覽時間,您可搭乘地鐵2號線直達陸家嘴。您或許喜歡選擇搭乘外灘觀光隧道或黃浦江輪渡,一邊欣賞夜景一邊拍照。 如果你沒到訪過外灘,相當於你沒去過上海,在這個現代世界見證這段歷史。
