A quote a day
The decline of literature indicates the decline of a nation; the two keep in their downward tendency. ( Johan Wolfgang von Goethe , German poet )
文学的衰落表明一个民族的衰落。这两者走下坡路的时间是齐头并进的。
(
德国诗人
歌德
. J . W .)
A city in a month
London---
Tower of London
Tower of London (
伦敦塔
)
伦敦塔是英国的罗马风格时期的一座城堡式建筑，位于伦敦泰晤士河北岸、伦敦塔桥附近。伦敦塔既是坚固的兵营要塞，又有富丽堂皇的宫殿，还有天文台、教堂、监狱等建筑。围墙内占地
18
公顷。
其历史可追溯到
1078
年，当时是因军事需要而建，防止敌人逆河入侵。英国史上许多失宠的王侯后妃及叛国者都被关押在此。伦敦塔最重要而且最古老的建筑是位于要塞中心的诺曼底塔楼，它是整个建筑群的主体，因其是用乳白色石块建成，故又称白塔。白塔因系主人居住与守备部队进驻之所，所以最为坚固。
The Tower of London is a complex
located on
the Thames River in London. The White Tower, the square building with turrets on each corner that gave it its name, is actually in the middle of a complex of several buildings, which have
served as
fortress, armory, treasury, mint, palace, place of execution, public records office, observatory, refuge, and prison, particularly for "upper class" prisoners.
In 1078 William the Conqueror ordered the White Tower to be built there, as much to protect the Normans from the people of the City of London
as to
protect London from anyone else. It was King Richard the Lion heart who had the moat dug around the surrounding wall and
filled with
water from the Thames.
A Royal Menagerie was established at the Tower in the 13th century, In 1264 it was moved to the Bulwark, which was duly renamed the Lion Tower, near the main western entrance. It was opened as an occasional public spectacle
in the reign of
Elizabeth I. By 1804 the menagerie was regularly open to the public.
The military use of the Tower as a fortification, like that of other such castles, became obsolete with the introduction of artillery.
