the great mosque

the great mosque is located in huajue lane, which branches off from the west main street. it is the major spot for the religious activities of over 60,000 moslems in xi’an. it is also an important historical monument in shaanxi province. unlike arabian mosques with splendid domes,skyward minarets, and dazzling patterns, this mosque possesses much chinese tradition in both design and artistic outlook. it assumes the striking features of chinese pavilions, with painted beams and engraved ridgepoles.

however, it would be useless to talk about the great mosque without knowing how islam was introduced into china.

islam, as a religious order, was founded in the early period of the 7th century and was

introduced to china in the mid-7th century. at that time, some arabian merchants and travelers came to the northwestern region by way of persia and afghanistan to establish diplomatic, trade, and military contacts with china. others started their voyage from the bangladesh bay, crossed thestrait of malacca, and arrived at guangzhou, quanzhou, hangzhou, yangzhou and other chinese cities. later, many of them settled down and married the local women. their children became the first generation of chinese moslems. however, massive immigration of moslems to china did not take place until, as late as, the early period of the 13th century. as a result of his western

expedition, genghis khan conquered vast expanses of land from central asia to east europe,

dynasty. the hui people later followed kublai khan down to the south, helping him unify china and establish the yuan dynasty. in the wake of this conquest, islam spread all over china and

mosques began to appear everywhere. many moslems held positions both in the military and civil services in the yuan dynasty.

a lot of moslems took part in zhu yuanzhang’s uprising in the early 14th century and made great contributions to the founding of the ming dynasty. therefore, all the emperors of the ming dynasty issued moslems for their great contributions. in the early 16th century, islam dominated xinjiang and spread its influence top gansu, ningxia and qinghai. the religion later won

domination over such minority ethnic groups as the hui, the uygur, the kazak, the kirgiz, the tajik, the tartar, the uzbek, the dongxiang, the salar and the bonan. the moslems in xi’an are mainly the hui people. there are approximately 17 million moslems in china.

the great mosque is the most sizable of its kind in the city of xi’an, and also one of the oldest and best-preserved mosques in china. the stone tablet o the building of the mosque says that it was built in the tang dynasty. however, judging from its architectural style, it was probably built in the ming dynasty. its four courtyards cover an area of more than 12,000 square meters, with a building area of 4,000 square meters. the still intact wooden memorial arch in the front yard was built at the turn of the 17th century. with glazed tiles, spectacular corners, and upturned eaves, it stands about nine meters high, and has a history of about 360 years.

the stone memorial gateway in the center of the second courtyard is flanked by two tall

tablets, with dragons carved on each. they record the details of the repair work ever conducted

since the building of the master calligrapher mi fu mosque. one tablet bears the characters by the in the song dynasty: “may islam fill the universe.” the other bears the characters by the ming

master calligrapher dong qichang, “royally bestowed.” these characters are typical examples of traditional chinese calligraphy.

at the entrance of the third courtyard is a hall built by the order of the royal court, where a “crescent tablet”, showing the calculation of the islaluic calendar is stored. the calendar was compiled by xiao xining, who was in charge of the mosque in the early period of the qing dynasty.

a three-storeyed octagonal wooden structure called the retrospection tower stands in the center ofthe courtyard. it functions the same as the minaret in an average arabian mosque. orders are oftensent from the tower to call the moslems to come to worship. respectively on the south and north wings of the tower are the reception chamber and the scripture chamber. both of them are elegantly laid out. the five wooden houses, called “water houses” in the southwest section of the mosque, are where the believers bathe themselves before they attend their services.

inside the fourth courtyard, there is a structure called the phoenix pavilion, a place where

worshipers wait for services. the pavilion, in fact, is a complex of three small buildings. the six-gabled structure in the central part is adjoined by two three-gabled buildings on each side

which make it look like a flying phoenix; hence its name. just at the back of the pavilion there is a fish pond, and beyond it is a platform with an area of 700 square meters. across the platform

stands the 1,300-square-meter prayer hall. it holds over 1,000 worshipers at a time. the ceiling is decorated with over 600 panels. the walls of the hall, as well as the panels, are decorated with

patterns of trailing plants and arabic letters. the shrine at the western end of the hall is where the imam and worshipers chant the koran and pay homage while facing in the direction of mecca.

the moslems in china share much the same customs with their brothers and sisters elsewhere in the world. they worship five times a day: at dawn, at noon, in the afternoon, at dusk, and at night.

the constitution of china acknowledges that each citizen has the right freedom of religion, and that each ethnic group has the freedom to preserve or reform its own customs. of course, the moslems in china enjoy equal rights with other ethnic groups, and their religious beliefs and customs are respected everywhere in the country.

the great mosque at huajue lane

the mosque is a major spot for religious activities of over

60.000 moslems in xi’an, likewise, an important cultural relic prote cted by the provincial people’s government. unlike the arabic mosques, with splendid domes, the minarets reaching into the clouds, the coulourful engraved sketches with

dazzling patterns, the mosque here in xi’an possesses much chinese traditional touch in both its design and artistic outlook; besides the style peculiar to islamic mosques, this mosque also holds characteristics of chinese pavilions with painted beams and engraved ridgepoles.

however, any further discussion about the mosque will be futile unless anything of the

introduction of islam into china is brought up.

islam as a religious order was founded in the early period of the 7th century a.d. and was

introduced to china in the mid-600s. at that time, arabian merchants and travelers came to the

northwest of china by way of persia and afghanistan and thus established diplomatic, trade, and military contacts with china. in the meantime, another route saw a batch of sea voyagers through

bangladesh bay and the malacca strait to china’s guangzhou, quanzhou, huangzhou, yangzhou and other cities where many of them settled down and married the local women who later gave birth to babies who then became moslems.

however, massive immigration of the moslems to china did

not take place until as late as the early period of the 13th century, when genghis khan, as a result of his expedition against the west, had conquered vast expanses of land stretching from central asia to eastern europe, including the north of iran. many of the moslems in the conquered areas were thus forced to enlist and later settled in china.

among the enlisted many were soldiers, and some were

smiths and officials who were called the hui people in the history books on the yuan dynasty. the hui people later followed kublai khan down to the south, helping him unifying china and then establish the yuan dynasty. in the wake of the conquest, islam spread all over china and mosques began to appear everywhere. in the yuan

dynasty, many moslems held positions both in the military and civilian organs of the country. and a lot of the moslems took part in zhu yuanzhang’s uprising in the early 14th century and made great contributions to the founding of the ming dynasty. therefore, all the emperors of the dynasty issued mandates to protect islam, and to set up mosques in praise of the moslems for their feats. in the early 16th century, islam predominated qinghai on the minority nationalities including the huis, the

uygurs, the kazaks, the kirgizes, the tajiks, the tartars, the ozbeks, the dong xiangs, the salars and the bonans. the moslems in xi’an are mainly the huis, being a small portion out of the ten million in china.

尊敬的各位游客:

大家好!很高兴和大家见面,大家就叫我常导吧。接下来就和我一起参观西安钟楼吧!

钟楼位于西安市中心,东南西北四条大街的交汇处。看,在我们眼

前的两层建筑就是钟楼,它由基座、楼身和楼顶三部分组成。钟楼

高36米,是古色古香的砖瓦结构,四角挑檐翘起,凌空欲飞,楼顶

有各色玻璃瓦鲜艳夺目,美丽极了。钟楼四周鲜花环绕,增添了欢

乐的节日气氛。

基座是由巨大的城砖筑成,沿着基座北面的楼梯而上,我们便来到

钟楼楼身观光台,首先映入我们眼帘的是一口青色的明代大钟,重

五吨,里面能容纳五六个人,钟面上雕刻着精美的八卦图案,浑厚

洪亮的钟声好像闷雷滚动,告诉周边的人们新一天的到来;如今,钟

声祈祷老人的长寿、可以让小孩健康快乐......一跨入展厅大门,就看

见三排钟从小到大的排列着,其中的一排钟形状大小一模一样,但

一排和一排形状不同;周围还有许多美丽的水墨画和刚劲有力的书法,钟和书画向我们展现了明代人的技艺高超。站在钟楼上极目远眺,

东南西北四条大街人来人往,车水马龙,热闹非凡。

今天,我很高兴为大家服务。鼓楼和钟楼遥相呼应,使古城西安更

加美丽,下次有机会再带大家一起参观西安鼓楼。

篇二:西安钟楼鼓楼导游词

各位游客大家好!

今天我们将去参观西安城墙、钟楼和鼓楼。很荣幸能为大家服务。

我们现在看到的这座古城堡就是明西安城墙,是明初在唐长安皇城

的基础上建筑起来的。它是我国中世纪后期历史上最著名的城垣之一,是世界上现存规模最大、最完整的古代军事城堡防御设施。

西安作为千年古都,历代曾多次修筑城墙。它们多数被历史的尘埃

掩埋。我们现在看到的城墙可追溯到隋代。公元1369年,明王朝大

将徐达从山西进入陕西,将原来的奉天路改为西安,意为西方长治

久安。拉开了明在西安修筑城墙的序幕。历时8年修筑完的城墙外

形是一座长方形。城墙高15米,顶宽12—14米,底宽16—18米,周长13.9公里。最底层用黄土与石灰、糯米汁拌合而成,干燥之后,异常坚固。

西安古城墙包括护城河、吊桥、闸楼、箭楼、正楼、角楼、敌楼、

女儿墙、垛口等一系列军事设施。好了,现在让我们亲自来感受这

座科学、严密、完整的军事防御体系。

城墙最外围是护城河,也叫城壕,是城墙的第一道防线。它可以阻滞

敌人进攻,甚至可以利用有利地形把敌人趁机消灭。环绕西安城墙的

护城河宽20米,跨过护城河就是城门,而连接护城河与城门的唯一通道就是吊桥。平时,守城士兵听从晨钟暮鼓的指挥,早晨降下吊桥,开启城门;晚上升起吊桥,断绝交通。一旦发生战争,吊桥升起,城

门紧闭,城门就成为坚固封闭的战斗堡垒。

城门是城防体系的重点,也是薄弱点。平时,它是出入城市的通道。战争时,又是攻守双方争夺的首要目标。因此,明代十分重视完善

城门防御设施。尤其值得注意的一大技术突破是采用了券拱式城门,以防止敌人火攻。明西安城的城门非常坚固,门扇用厚达16厘米的

木板制成,一扇城门用木材2.8立方米,门扇上下横匝着铁条加固,每两道铁条的间隔处,钉有180枚铁蘑菇针。整个门扇上共有1800

枚铁蘑菇针。这样就挤密了门扇的木材,增加了门扇刚度,使箭矢

无法射入。

为了提高城门防御的保险系数,城门实际上由三重组成,即:闸楼、箭楼和主楼。闸楼在最外,它的作用是升降吊桥。兼用来打更。敌

人攻入闸楼城门,好似进入瓮内,会受到来自四面居高临下的攻击,因此楼下这一空间也叫瓮城。箭楼在正中,正面和两侧都有窗户,

供射箭用。箭楼与箭楼之间用围墙连接起来的也叫瓮城,可屯兵。

正楼在最里,正楼上面的城楼是城门的主体建筑,是主将镇守指挥

所在。城墙外侧,每隔120米有一个突出于城墙主体之外的敌台,

俗称马面。整个城墙上共有马面98座,马面上面的建筑叫敌楼,两

个敌台之间相距120米,而它的一面为60米,为一箭之遥。这样的

布局便于从侧面射杀攻城的敌人。因此,古人有评论说:有城无台,亦如无城,是城所以卫人,台又所以卫城也。。城墙上外侧有矮雉,又称垛墙,上有垛口和方孔,可供射箭和嘹望。内侧的矮墙称为女

儿墙,是为了防止士兵行走时坠入墙下。在西安城墙四角各有一座

城楼叫角楼。在箭楼与正楼形成的瓮城中,有通向城头的马道,便

于战马上下。战争期间,这里是调兵遣将的咽喉要道,必须保证畅

通无阻。因此守卫异常严格。

随着岁月的变迁,现在我们可以看到西安城墙的长乐门、安定门、

朱雀门、含光门、玉祥门等等,这些名称的来历也从一个侧面反映

了古城沉浮衰兴。明西安城墙显示了我国古代劳动人民的聪明才智,好了,西安城墙就参观到这里,我们将继续带大家去参观钟鼓楼。

钟楼和鼓楼是古代中国城市的特有建筑。钟与鼓本是中国最早出现

的打击乐器,有3000年以上的历史。最初作为礼器和乐器。大约自

春秋时期,开始用于军事指挥。古代中国城市兼有军事城堡性质,

除城市四周构筑城墙,挖掘城壕,设置吊桥外,与之配套的还有在

城市中心修筑钟鼓楼作为指挥中枢。平时以晨钟暮鼓报告时辰,定

时启闭吊桥,紧急状态时用以报警戒严,指挥城防。这种严密的城

市防御系统在明代发展到顶峰。西安是明代西北军政重镇,它的钟

楼和鼓楼无论从建筑规模、历史价值或艺术价值各方面衡量,都居

全国同类建筑之冠。

我们现在看到的这座建筑就是钟楼,位于西安市东西南北四条大街

的交汇处,它建于明洪武十七年,最初位于西大街的迎祥观,随着

城市中心的东移,到了明神宗万历10年,将钟楼来了个整体拆迁,

迁至今址。

钟楼呈典型明代建筑艺术风格,楼高36米,重檐斗拱,华丽庄严。由基座,楼身和楼顶三部分组成。基座是正方形,全部用青砖砌成。楼身为正方形木质结构,外面以

回廊环绕,里面为二层楼,楼内有木梯盘旋而上。楼内上下两层正

方形大厅里,陈列着明代以来各种名贵瓷器及红楠木家具,四面门

上布满浮雕画,风格厚朴生动。楼顶为四角攒尖结构,上面覆盖着

碧绿色的琉璃瓦,顶端大圆顶高5米,金光闪闪,辉煌灿烂。

钟楼的西北角上陈列着一口明代铁钟,重5吨,钟边铸有八卦图案。它比钟楼早先悬挂的铜钟小得多。钟楼原先悬挂的巨钟是唐代景云

年间铸造的景云钟。现在这口钟收藏于西安碑林。据说,钟楼从迎

祥观迁到今址后,虽然楼的式样大小并没有改变,但景云钟却怎也

敲不响了。没有办法,只有另换。为了将景云钟移到新建的钟楼上,当年在西大街西段搭起一座斜桥,利用桥面斜坡把景云钟运到了钟

楼上。据说桥梓口也因此而得名。

钟楼内西墙上嵌刻有《钟楼歌》和《钟楼记》碑刻。《钟楼歌》是

当年修建钟楼的陕西巡抚龚懋贤在解职赴京时登楼所赋。诗中对钟

楼做了热情的赞颂。《钟楼记》是督修过钟楼的巡抚张楷所作,详

细记述了钟楼的身世。在钟楼的门上有木刻浮雕故事画共64幅,其

中有木兰从军、嫦娥奔月、柳毅传书、八仙过海等等。建国后,西

安市人民政府又对钟楼进行了三次大规模修葺,使这座古建筑又焕

发了昔日的风采。

与钟楼遥遥相对的是鼓楼,楼底门洞为南北向,北通北院门,南达

西大街。鼓楼建于明洪武十三年,与钟楼是姊妹楼。在鼓楼的第一

层北面有一面巨鼓,与钟楼上的晨钟形成暮鼓,所以称为鼓楼。楼

体呈长方形,基座的门洞高与宽均为6米,洞深38米。鼓楼建筑为

重檐歇山式,琉璃瓦覆顶,重檐三滴水。楼分上、下两层。南北檐

下各有一块匾,南为清乾隆皇帝御笔刻书:文武盛地,北为咸宁县

书生李允宽书写声闻于天。在鼓楼的外檐都饰有斗拱,四面有回廊。天花板上油漆彩绘云形图案,古色古香,十分美丽。钟鼓楼交相辉映,使古城西安更加美丽壮观。

好了,钟鼓楼的参观到这里就结束了。谢谢大家!

篇三:西安钟楼鼓楼导游词

我们现在看到的就是钟楼。钟楼位于市中心东、西、南、北四条大

街的交会处,它建于明洪武十七年 (1384年),当时钟楼的位置并不

在现在这个地方,那么它在哪儿呢?请大家顺着我手指的方向看,那

座与钟楼遥相呼应的楼就是鼓楼,钟楼最初的位置在鼓

楼以西的迎祥观内。迎祥观是唐朝一座非常著名的道观,唐睿宗李

旦为了给自已的母亲过寿,特制了一口钟安放在迎祥观内。随着城

市的发展,西安城不断地扩建,钟楼就偏于城西,不再居于城市中

心了。在这种情况下,公元1582年明政府就将钟楼迁移至今天的位置。

钟楼的主要作用就是击钟报时。每天清晨,当钟声响起,四个城门

就打开,人们就开始了一天的辛勤劳作,傍晚鼓楼的鼓声一响,人

们就回到城里关闭城门,这就是大家常说的晨钟暮鼓。过去用来报

时的钟是唐睿宗李旦在景云二年(711年)命人制作的,取名景云钟。

景云钟纹饰精美,线条流畅,声音洪亮,充分表现出了唐代工匠高

超的铸钟水平,原钟现收藏在西安碑林石刻艺术博物馆。大家现在

看到的这口钟是景云钟的复制品,它的体态、大小、重量、纹饰与

原景云钟都是相同的。现在让我们大家一起来欣赏一下,请看钟纽

部分:据传海中有一种大兽叫蒲牢,它虽然凶猛,但是非常害怕鲸鱼,每当鲸鱼攻击它,它就会拼命大叫,由于它的叫声非常响亮,

人们在铸钟的时候就将它缚在钟上,以祈求钟声洪亮,我们大家可

以想像一下,钟就像张着大嘴的蒲牢,撞钟之木就像鲸鱼,鲸鱼咬

一口,蒲牢叫一声,鲸鱼咬得越急,蒲牢叫得越响,如果哪位朋友

不信,可以来试试。关于蒲牢还有另外一种说法,说蒲牢是龙王爷

的第九个儿子,龙生九子各有所好,这位蒲牢平素爱大声喊叫,声

音非常洪亮,因此钟纽常常做成蒲牢的样子,希望能使钟声洪亮,

总之有了蒲牢,钟声就会洪亮,这是无可置疑的事了。

再来看看钟面,这里有龙、凤、鹤、狮、独角牛,以及飞天、彩云、蔓草等,花纹线条流畅、首尾相接,它们分别代表着道教法规、富

贵权势、天上人间,以及现世未来,是一幅集福、权、贵为一体的

宗教纹饰画,特别珍贵的是这篇唐睿宗李旦亲笔所书的铭文。李旦

的真迹共有三处:孔子庙堂碑、顺陵碑以及景云钟铭文。因孔子庙

堂碑和顺陵碑都己被毁,所以现在李旦的真迹就仅存景云钟铭文一
