正如华盛顿欧文曾经写过的那样，“......如果我只是一个风景优美的爱好者，我应该感觉不到寻求其他地方的满足感，因为在任何一个国家都没有大自然的魅力更加浪漫。......但是欧洲提出了传奇和诗意的联想。欧洲富有积累的年龄宝藏。她的废墟讲述了过去的历史，每一块颓废的石头都是编年史。Just as Washington Irving once wrote, '...had I been merely a lover of fine scenery, I should have felt little desire to seek elsewhere its gratification, for on no country have the charms of nature been more prodigally lavished. … but Europe held forth the charms of storied and poetical association. Europe was rich in the accumulated treasure of age. Her very ruins told the history of times gone by, and every moldering stone was a chronicle.'旅游业始终与文化密切相关。文化旅游成为旅游企业的新里程碑。对于导游来说，向游客介绍或描述自然风景是一件容易的事，但他们解释文化并不容易。因此，游客必须自己研究文化事物才能获得令人印象深刻的旅行。Tourism is always closely related to culture. Cultural tourism becomes a new landmark in the tourist enterprise. For a tourist guide, it is a easy job to introduce or describe the natural scenery to the visitors, but it is not that easy for them to explain the culture. Hence, visitors have to study the culture thing themselves in order to gain an impressive trip.中国是一个历史悠久的大国。从远古时代开始，中国人的祖先就在这片辽阔的土地上劳作，生活和繁衍，创造了灿烂的文化。作为世界上最早文明的四大摇篮之一，它有近4000年的历史。纵观中华文明的历史，其农业和手工艺品以其高度复杂而闻名。在这4000多年的时间里，中国培养了许多伟大的思想家，发明家，政治家，战略家，文人和艺术家，产生了丰富的文化遗产和优良的文化传统。China is a large country with time-honored history.
