江南好，风景旧曾谙。日出江花红胜火，春来江水绿如蓝。能不忆江南？
1000多年前，著名诗人白居易的《忆江南》几句话就刻画了栩栩如生的江南美景。而江南水乡最具代表性的就是众所周知的周庄了。
今天就给大家分享一下有”中国第一水乡“之称的江南古老的小镇周庄。周庄历史悠久，是典型的江南水乡风貌，有独特的人文景观。因为四面环水，所有周庄更加显得具有灵性。周庄内的大部分住户都是临水而居，因河成街，呈现一派古朴、宁静的景色，真正的小桥流水人家。
More than 1000 years ago, a famous poet bai juyi depicted the beautiful scenery of yangtze river delta with a few words. However, the most representative ancient water town in southern yangtze river is well-known Zhouzhuang.
So, today I would like to share with you The First Water Town, Zhouzhuang.
Zhouzhuang has a long history and a unique cultural landscape, is a typical southern yangtze river style.
Because it was surrounded by water, zhouzhuang is more spiritual.
Most of the folk hoses in the Zhouzhuang are near the water, which present a primitive simplicity and quiet picture, they are typical of southern yangtze river----Bridge, Water, Home.
来到水乡，那必然要在水路上欣赏沿途的风景。这也是周庄最火的项目了。我们就租了这种小船，80元可以游览20分钟，船上可以坐8个人。如果你人少，可以和大家一起拼船，还是不贵的。
Coming to the watertown, it is necessery to enjoy the scenery by boat, and the tourism program above water is the most popular. So we rent a boat, which can hold 8 peoples. (you can spend 80 RMB to take a boat for 20 munites. )
周庄的船很多，来往穿梭在河道间，的确是一道很美丽的风景。这些船只都搭着一块深蓝色的布棚，里面很宽敞，坐着也更稳些。有时候还能听到阿婆们唱着小曲，别有一番韵味。
There are many small boats shuttling back and forth between the rivers, which is also a beautiful scenery. These boats, with the dark blue cloth tents above it, are roomy and comfertable, and then sometimes you can listen to the melodious songs sung by the people boating on the river.
周庄镇大部分民居仍为明清时代的建筑，这里有很多古典宅院和砖雕门楼，还有很多各具特色的古桥。
Most of the houses were built in the Ming-Qing dynasty, and there are many classicla archetectures, unique ancient bridge.
下图就是著名的《双桥》。由于它像古代的钥匙，所以又叫钥匙桥。游览周庄，双桥是不能不看的。双桥最能体现古镇的神韵，碧水泱泱，绿树掩映，小船慢悠悠地在桥洞穿过。这是一副多么美丽的画面啊！
据说上世纪八十年代，上海著名旅美画家陈逸飞先生来到周庄。他非常喜欢这里，经常在这里写生，后来根据双桥背景创作了一幅《故乡的回忆》的油画。之后这幅油画被哈默购买，并且在哈默访问中国的时候，将它送给了国家领导人邓小平先生。寓意着两国之间美好的友谊。从此双桥走向世界，周庄开始声名鹊起。
The following is the famous TwoBridge. since it is like the ancient key, also called Keybridge. if you visit Zhouzhuang, you'd better look at the Twobridge . because it is the most famous view spot in Zhouzhuang.
it can greatly embody the spirit of the ancient town, plus green lake, its shores having been so green and leafy and small boats move slowly across the bridge. What a graceful water-town landscape!
It is said that in the 1980 s, a famous painter Mr Chen from shanghai came to zhouzhuang to create a oil painting on the background of Two Bridge, the title was the memory of hometown which expressed deep memory for his hometown.
Later, the painting was bought by the Hamo, during his visit to China, Hamo gave it to the national leaders Mr. Deng xiaoping as a gift. Since then, people came to know the TwoBridge, and Zhouzhuang became a famous place.
走在古朴的石板路上，无论看向哪里，你都能感受到小镇的宁静，安祥，闲适的氛围。由于时间关系，我没有在此住一晚，都说夜游周庄才能看到它的独特的美。 总觉得有点遗憾呢！
Walking on the old stone road, wherever you see, you can experience the quiet, peaceful, comfortable atmosphere of town. Since I was under tighter time restraint, I didn't stay for the night, they all said you didn't find its unique beauty until night. I always consider it a pity.
这里现在居民很少，大部分都是商业店铺，河岸两边的小房子里陈列着各种各样的小商品，感觉商业气息很浓。
There are very few residents living here, many houses are commercial shops where display various small commodities on both sides of the rive. and felt the commercial atmosphere was very thick.
尽管如此，我还是很喜欢这里. 虽然商业气息浓，虽然人很多，但它依然是我的梦里水乡。
Nevertheless, I still like it very much. Although the commercial atmosphere was thick, there were many visitors in here, and it is still Water Village In my Dream.
Thank you !
