为充分挖掘达活泉公园固有的历史文化内涵，同时突出现代的“生态、休闲、文化”游园理念，这次公园改造，将以体现达活泉的泉文化景观线与反映郭守敬的历史文化景观线贯穿和统领全园，重点突出泉文化和郭守敬历史文化两大主题，强调每个景区的内在景观特色和整体呼应关系。改造后的达活泉公园将被划分为7个功能区，即泉文化景观区、郭守敬科技园区、绿趣园区、休闲娱乐活动区、水上活动区、民俗文化园区和开敞绿地园区。

泉文化景观区位于全园中部，从公园北门开始，经过泉韵广场、七彩泉韵步道、水幕景墙、大湖面，穿过“复喷”后的达活泉，至绿苑结束。两侧辅有农趣园等植物生态景观区。达活泉为全园中心景观，此次改造将利用现代造景手法使该泉九龙吐水的历史原貌得以重现。同时，主路两侧的花雨喷泉及小广场的旱池喷泉将与达活泉遥相呼应。

郭守敬科技园区位于公园东南部，整个园区以古典园林建筑风格的廊、亭、桥、台、馆、楼为主调。由公园南大门为起点，穿越体现郭守敬在水利方面突出贡献的水池喷泉，到达郭守敬铜像前的“星的广场”，再穿过观星台到达郭守敬纪念馆。纪念馆东侧为体现郭守敬在天文方面贡献的冬、夏星座图科普园区，西侧有以郭守敬紫金山求学一段历史而命名的紫金山。

水上活动游览区以人工湖为中心，园区内景点有飞瀑流泉、独钓洲、游船码头及各式凉亭。植物观赏区则是利用原有的植物景区和苗圃进行重新设计，包括了森林浴场、阳光草坪牡丹园、南国花园等景点。

河北省邢台市达活泉公园位于邢台市市区西北，占地面积800多亩，居河北省之最，是邢台著名的八景之一。原为一水池，周百步，深丈许，泉水晶莹碧透，一望见低，水量大时，

主泉似开锅之水，翻华斗艳，银花沸腾，无数水泉，犹如玉盘行珠，滚流不息。园内树木葱郁，花草争妍，人工湖碧波粼粼，镶嵌其中；爽秋山山石高耸，春绿秋红。

达活泉园内有明清石碑多处，具有重要的书法和史料价值。明嘉靖年间栽植的古槐，至今生长茁壮，枝繁叶茂。我国元代著名的天文学家、数学家、水利学家郭守敬就生于邢台，所以在达活泉公园的中后部分有一处被称为园中园的郭守敬纪念馆，原中共中央书记胡耀邦题写馆名，该馆由郭守敬铜像、观星台、河桥和展区四部分组成，是重要的爱国主义教育基地。原中科院院长周光召为纪念馆前面的影壁写下了“观象先驱世代景仰”八个大字。郭守敬铜像由中央工艺美术学院教授傅天仇设计，高4.1米，重3.5吨，是我国目前科技人物铜像中最大的一个。现在，达活泉公园加大建设力度，兼收并蓄中外造园风格和技法，吸引了八方游客前来旅游和参观。

郭守敬科技园区位于公园东南部，整个园区以古典园林建筑风格的廊、亭、桥、台、馆、楼为主调。由公园南大门为起点，穿越体现郭守敬在水利方面突出贡献的水池喷泉，到达郭守敬铜像前的“星的广场”，再穿过观星台到达郭守敬纪念馆。纪念馆东侧为体现郭守敬在天文方面贡献的冬、夏星座图科普园区，西侧有以郭守敬紫金山求学一段历史而命名的紫金山。

走进达活泉公园，门内宽敞甬路中间的条形绿地上，植有各种花卉和巨大的球形青树，路两侧，绿柳成行。一进公园，立刻有一股清凉透骨的新鲜空气扑面而来。绿带北侧为圆形喷池，夏日，喷池喷出的水柱，鳞光闪闪如同银树繁花，令人赞叹不已。

公园西北是达活泉旧址，这里现已被开拓为面积更为广阔的两个人工湖。两湖之间，被河溪逶迤相连，游人至此，但见，山林浓郁、碧波荡漾。湖面上，脚踏式游船，游来串去。梭式游船，有的似离弦快箭，有的悠闲往返。水中小岛，给游人增加了新的情趣。划船厂之余，登上小岛，观赏涟漪的水景，在这清澈见底的湖水中，可见遨游的红鱼如同飞梭，浮来游去，给泉区增添了无限生机。

泉岸边，建有攒尖式八角凉亭，给游人提供了舒适的纳凉消闲设施。公园西侧是花卉园，也可谓之“园中之园”，这里腊梅，青竹、芭蕉、月季等等，繁花似锦，清香扑鼻，游人至此，颇有留连忘返之情。

现在的达活泉，造型新雅、布局巧妙，把新貌旧景结合得错落有致，越发使这一历史名泉，更加有名，虽非仙境，胜似仙境。

达活泉公园如今是邢台市人民娱乐休闲度假的好地方，全市的年轻青年在刚刚步入恋爱的时候几乎都来到这里，许下自己的美好心愿。是谈情说爱的最佳之地。

公园凸现了泉文化与郭守敬科技文化两大主题，形成了泉文化、历史文化、绿趣园、休闲娱乐、水上活动以及民俗文化等极具特色的景观和活动分区。目前，该园占地面积近千亩，共有各类植物3.7万株，草坪23.2万平方米，建筑景点3万平方米，水面6万平方米。

长城英文简介

The Great Wall of China The Great Wall of China is a series of fortifications made of stone, brick, tamped earth, wood, and other materials, generally built along an east-to-west line across the historical northern borders of China to protect the Chinese states and empires against the raids and invasions of the various nomadic groups of the Eurasian Steppe. Several walls were being built as early as the 7th century bce;[2] these, later joined together and made bigger and stronger, are now collectively referred to as the Great Wall.[3] Especially famous is the wall built 220–206 bce by Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China. Little of that wall remains. Since then, the Great Wall has on and off been rebuilt, maintained, and enhanced; the majority of the existing wall is from the Ming Dynasty. Other purposes of the Great Wall have included border controls, allowing the imposition of duties on goods transported along the Silk Road, regulation or encouragement of trade and the control of immigration and emigration. Furthermore, the defensive characteristics of the Great Wall were enhanced by the construction of watch towers, troop barracks, garrison stations, signaling capabilities through the means of smoke or fire, and the fact that the path of the Great Wall also served as a transportation corridor. The Great Wall stretches from Dandong in the east, to Lop Lake in the west, along an arc that roughly delineates the southern edge of Inner Mongolia. A comprehensive archaeological survey, using advanced technologies, has concluded that the Ming walls measure 8,850 km (5,500 mi).[4] This is made up of 6,259 km (3,889 mi) sections of actual wall, 359 km (223 mi) of trenches and 2,232 km (1,387 mi) of natural defensive barriers such as hills and rivers.[4] Another archaeological survey found that the entire wall with all of its branches measure out to be 21,196 km (13,171 mi).

Introduction of Great Wall The Great Wall, like the Pyramids of Egypt, the Taj Mahal (1) in India and the Hanging Garden of Babylon (2), is one of the great wonders of the world. Starting out in the east on the banks of the Yalu River in Liaoning Province, the Wall stretches westwards for 12,700 kilometers to Jiayuguan in the Gobi desert, thus known as the Ten Thousand Li Wall in China. The Wall climbs up and down, twists and turns along the ridges of the Yanshan and Yinshan Mountain Chains through five provinces——Liaoning, Hebei, Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Gansu and two autonomous regions——Ningxia and Inner Mongolia, binding the northern China together. Historical records trace the construction of the origin of the Wall to defensive fortification back to the year 656 B.C. during the reign of King Cheng of the States of Chu. Its construction continued throughout the Warring States period in the fifth Century B.C. when ducal states Yan, Zhao, Wei, and Qin were frequently plundered by the nomadic peoples living north of the Yinshan and Yanshan mountain ranges. Walls, then, were built separately by these ducal states to ward off such harassments. Later in 221 B.C., when Qin conquered the other states and unified China, Emperor Qinshihuang ordered the connection of these individual walls and further extensions to form the basis of the present great wall. As a matter of fact, a separate outer wall was constructed north of the Yinshan range in the Han Dynasty(206 BC——1644 BC.), which went to ruin through years of neglect. In the many intervening centuries, succeeding dynasties rebuilt parts of the Wall. The most extensive reinforcements and renovations were carried out in the Ming Dynasty (1368——1644) when altogether 18 lengthy stretches were reinforced with bricks and rocks. it is mostly the Ming Dynasty Wall that visitors see today. The Great Wall is divided into two sections, the east and west, with Shanxi Province as the dividing line. The west part is a rammed earth construction, about 5.3 meters high on average. In the eastern part, the core of the Wall is rammed earth as

In the north of China， there lies a 6，700-kilometer-long (4，161-mile-long) ancient wall. Now well-known as the Great Wall of China， it starts at the Jiayuguan Pass of Gansu Province in the west and ends at the Shanhaiguan Pass of Hebei Province in the east. As one of the Eight Wonders in the world， the Great Wall of China has become the symbol of the Chinese nation and its culture. Lots of beautiful legends and stories about the Great Wall took place following along the construction， and since that time these stories have spread around the country. Those that happened during construction are abundant，such as Meng Jiangnu‘s story and the legend of the Jiayuguan Pass. Meng Jiangnu‘s story is the most famous and widely spread of all the legends about the Great Wall. The story happened during the Qin Dynasty (221BC-206BC). It tells of how Meng Jiangnu‘s bitter weeping made a section of the Great Wall collapse. Meng Jiangnu‘s husband Fan Qiliang was caught by federal officials and sent to build the Great Wall. Meng Jiangnu heard nothing from him after his departure， so she set out to look for him. Unfortunately， by the time she reached the great wall，she discovered that her husband had already died. Hearing the bad news，she cried her heart out. Her howl caused the collapse of a part of the Great Wall. This story indicates that the Great Wall is the production of tens of thousands of Chinese commoners. Another legend about the Jiayuguan Pass tells of a workman named Yi Kaizhan in the Ming Dynasty (1368BC-1644BC) who was proficient in arithmetic. He calculated that it would need 99，999 bricks to build the Jiayuguan Pass. The supervisor did not believe him and said if they miscalculated by even one brick， then all the workmen would be punished to do hard work for three years. After the completion of the project， one brick was left behind the Xiwong city gate. The supervisor was happy at the sight of the brick and ready to punish them. However Yi Kaizhan said with deliberation that the brick was put there by a supernatural being to fix the wall. A tiny move would cause the collapse of the wall. Therefore the brick was kept there and never moved. It can still be found there today on the tower of the Jiayuguan Pass. In addition to the above-mentioned stories about the construction of the Great Wall， there are also plenty of stories about current scenic spots. A famous one is the legend of the Beacon Tower. This story happened during the Western Zhou Dynasty (11th century BC-711 BC). King You had a queen named Bao Si， who was very pretty. King You liked her very much， however Bao Si never smiled. An official gave a suggestion that setting the beacon tower on fire would frighten the King‘s subjects， and might make the queen smile. King You liked the idea. The subjects were fooled and Bao
