10.歐洲城堡
Dotted all throughout Europe there are thousands of Medieval and Baroque castles that conjure up images of fairytale princesses and chivalrous knights. They were not only built as protective fortresses but also as the homes of feudal lords and kings that showed their wealth and status. Some of the most impressive examples include Germany's Neuschwanstein Castle, France's Palace of Versailles, Ireland's Blarney Castle, Sintra Palace in Portugal, Turkey's Topkapi Palace, Prague Castle in the Czech Republic and Leeds Castle in England.
成千上萬個具有巴洛克式風格的中世紀城堡散落在整個歐洲。這些城堡讓人聯想到童話故事裏公主和騎士的場景。城堡的建造不僅是爲了保護要塞，也是封建貴族和騎士的家。同時，也彰顯了他們的財富和地位。其中最具影響力的城堡有:德國的新天鵝堡、法國的凡爾賽宮殿、新西蘭的布拉尼城堡、葡萄牙的辛拉特宮殿、土耳其的拉普拉卡宮殿、捷克共和國的布拉格城堡和英國的利茲城堡。

9.巨石陣
While there are several theories around the functionality of this Neolithic monument, no one can argue that within minutes of arriving you find yourself pondering the mystery of Stonehenge. The major rivaling theories are that it was either built as an astronomical observatory or religious site while others believe that the bluestones were thought to have healing powers. Construction first began around 3000 BC and was carried out in three separate stages hundreds of years apart.
雖然新石器時代的歷史遺物有着許多原理，無可爭議的是僅是在短短几分鐘之內，你會發現自己正在思索巨石陣的神祕之處。其主要原理是，巨石陣的建造既不是用作天文研究也不是作爲宗教場所，其中，有些人相信藍石具有治癒功能。初次建造大約是在公元前3000年而後在100年裏歷經3次間斷的修建後得以完成。or Wat
8.吳哥窟
Angkor Wat is easily the most recognizable temple in Cambodia as well as one of the most beautiful. It was built in the early 12th century by King Suryavarman II to act as his state temple and capital city. The best example of Khmer architecture, which includes many bas-reliefs and devatas, Angkor Wat is unique in that it is the only such temple that is oriented towards the west.
在柬埔寨，吳哥窟是最易識別的神殿，也是最美神殿之一。作爲本國的神殿和首都，蘇耶跋摩二世在12世紀早期將其修建完成。高棉建築風格的最佳典範包含許多淺浮雕和仙女蒂娃坦，吳哥窟在這一風格中成爲了唯一一座朝向爲西的神殿。Great Wall of China
7.中國長城
One of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Great Wall is an impressive feat of engineering. The Wall is the product of 21 centuries of building and rebuilding that began in the 5th century BC, and was used to protect the Empire of China from Xiongnu attacks. Although sections of the current wall, which dates back to the Ming Dynasty, are in total disrepair, near tourist centers it has been well preserved and even reconstructed to give visitors a glimpse of its former glory.
作爲世界七大奇蹟之一，長城的建造是一項震驚世界的工程壯舉。它是21世紀建築重建的產物，建於公元前5世紀用以抵禦匈奴入侵，保障古代帝王的統治。現如今，長城要追溯到秦朝。其部分完全摧毀，而靠近旅遊中心的長城被保護得很好。有的甚至得以重修以此讓遊客一睹長城昔日的輝煌。u Picchu
6.馬丘比丘
Machu Picchu, known to many as "The Lost City of the Incas", is the most impressive remainder of the Incan Empire. It was built in 1462 AD and abandoned only a hundred years later, which saved it from plunder and destruction at the hands of Spanish conquistadors, who were unaware of its location. American historian Hiram Bingham rediscovered Machu Picchu in 1911. The three primary structures are the Temple of the Sun, the Room of the Three Windows and the Intihuatana Stone, an astronomical clock or calendar that has been dubbed "The Hitching Point of the Sun".
馬丘比丘因"印加迷失的城市"而爲人所熟知。它是印加帝王讓人印象最深刻的標誌。建造於公元1462年，僅100年後便被拋棄。這一結果也使得馬丘比丘在西班牙征服者的掠奪和摧毀中得以倖存。美國曆史學家還拉姆·賓漢於1911年重新發現了馬丘比丘。它最基本的三大建築是:太陽神殿、三窗神殿和拴日石。其中拴日石有一個天文時鐘或一本日曆，它們被授予"太陽要點"的稱號。Parthenon
5.帕臺農神殿
The Parthenon is an elegantly crafted symbol, not only of Ancient Greece, but also of the very roots of democracy. The current building was built Pericles in the mid-5th century BC as a Doric temple to the goddess Athena and also as a treasury for the Delian League. Many of the sculptures, referred to as the marbles, have been removed and now reside in the British Museum, the Louvre and other museums despite efforts by the Greek government to return them to their proper place.
帕臺農神殿不僅是古希臘優美的標誌性建築，還是民主政治的根源。這一建築建造於公元前5世紀中期。同時，它還是提洛同盟的財富。這裏的許多大理石雕像早已被轉移，現屬於英國博物館、盧浮宮和其他博物館。儘管希臘政府正努力促使其迴歸正位。Taj Mahal
4.泰姬陵
The Taj Mahal is one of the most stunning structures in the world and the story behind its construction is just as beautiful. The Taj was built between 1632 and 1653 by Emperor Shah Jahan to serve as a mausoleum and monument to his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal. It was constructed by twenty thousand workers from marble and inlayed with twenty-eight different kinds of precious and semi-precious stones from across India and Asia.
泰姬陵是世界上最傑出的建築結構之一。在建造前，它還有一個美麗的故事。泰姬陵由國王沙賈漢在1632年至1653年期間完成，它作爲國王愛妻——慕塔芝瑪的陵墓和紀念碑。泰姬陵是由2000位工人用大理石和來自印度和亞洲的20種不同種類的珍貴石頭建造而成。a
3.佩特拉古城
The ancient Nabataean capital of Petra was built around 100 BC and was a site where many ancient trade routes converged making its residents very wealthy. Some of the major attractions are the Theatre and the Monastery, but the most recognizable is the Al Khazneh, commonly referred to as the Treasury, that's use was a mystery until a recant excavation found that the Khazneh is really a tomb, probably of the royal family.
古老的納巴泰大約建於公元前100年，它是許多古老的貿易路線的必經之地，這一條件使得當地居民繁榮富裕。該地最具吸引力的是劇場和修道院，而卡茲尼神殿則最易識別。我們通常視其爲國庫。它曾一度神祕莫測，直到有人挖掘並表明該神殿實則是一座屬於貴族家庭的墳墓。2.羅馬
The Eternal City is filled with some of the most stunning and iconic architecture in the world. Layers of Ancient Roman, Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque buildings are to be seen at almost every turn. However, no trip to Rome is complete without taking in the Coliseum, the Roman Forum, the Pantheon, the Circus Maximus, the Arch of Constantine, Fontana di Trevi and at least one of the many historic piazzas throughout the city.
不朽之城有些震驚世界的建築風格和建築標識。古羅馬的每個階層，中世紀和文藝復興時期，巴洛克風格建築幾乎出現在每一個時期的轉角處。如果你沒有去觀看競技場，去感受羅馬法庭，去參觀萬神殿，也沒有去看看大競技場和君士坦丁凱旋門，甚至沒有去許願池許願，那麼這絕對是一場不完整的羅馬之行。在這裏有許多具有歷史意義的廣場，其中至少有一個貫穿了整個城市。t
1.埃及
Egypt it one of the most culturally rich countries in the world and one of the most ancient tourist spots in the world having played host to many visitors from ancient Greece and Rome. Of course the site that is most synonymous with the image of Egypt is the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx at Giza. Other must see sights include the Valley of the Kings, Abu Simbel, the Egyptian Museum, Saqqara, Luxor and Karnak, all of which will make you feel like you've taken a step back in time to the lands of Ancient Egypt.
埃及是世界上最富有文化底蘊的國家。它也是世界上最古老的旅遊地之一。埃及曾接待了來自古希臘和羅馬的遊客。毋庸置疑，最具埃及風格的是大金字塔和吉薩的斯芬克斯(Sphinx,帶翼的獅身女怪)。而其他景點包括:帝王谷、阿爾辛貝神殿、埃及博物館、塞加拉、盧克索和卡納克神殿。所有的景點都將給你一種置身於古埃及土地上的感覺。翻譯：何韻 來源：前十網
