加龙上的历史通道

石桥,波尔多

皮埃尔桥横跨波尔多加龙河,自1822年落成以来一直是这座城市的象征。这座历史悠久的大桥由拿破仑一世下令建造,由工程师德尚普和比洛德尔设计,是第一座连接两岸的桥梁。桥长486米,有17个雄伟的拱门和16个桥墩,是那个时代智慧的见证。它最初在落成时被命名为“路易十八桥”,但很快就被波尔多人改名为“皮埃尔桥”,意思其实就是“石桥”。

如今,经过两个多世纪的使用和数次翻修,皮埃尔桥仍是一条重要通道,也是俯瞰卢恩的绝佳视角。现在,皮埃尔桥禁止汽车通行,是行人、骑自行车者和公共交通的必经之地。该桥计划于2025年夏季进行加固工程,以确保这座见证波尔多历史的建筑能够继续留存下来。

万圣节时冷冰的凝视 Stone-cold stares on Halloween

万圣节快乐!

你有被恐怖的事物吓着的时候吗?如果有这样的经历,那说明你有着适度的娱乐感和恐惧感。一年中,没有什么日子比万圣节更适合沉迷于各种恐怖事物中了。我们今天所知的万圣节其实是由多个古老的文化和宗教传统演变而来,其中包括凯尔特人的萨温节,罗马人的“费拉里雅”,以及中世纪基督教的活动。今天,乔装打扮后的人们穿梭于大街小巷,就像祖先们披着兽皮来占卜未来或颂扬圣人和英烈一样。

在像“不给糖就捣蛋”、雕刻南瓜灯以及举办万圣节派对等现代的节日活动中,你可能会发现一些令人毛骨悚然的装饰品,例如今天图片中的巴黎圣母院的奇美拉。这种神话中的生物高高地栖息在城市上空,它经常被误解是滴水嘴兽(一种建筑输水管道喷口终端的雕饰),与这些喷水的“表亲”不同,奇美拉只是纯粹的装饰品。因此,当我们在欢庆万圣节时,也不要忘记这个节日背后的神秘生物和传说!万圣节快乐!

Happy Halloween!

Do you sometimes get spooked? If you do, that means you have a healthy sense of fun and fear. And what better day of the year than Halloween to indulge in all things scary? The holiday we know today traces its roots to ancient traditions, including the Celts' Samhain, the Romans' Feralia, and medieval Christian observances. Today, costumed people mingle in the streets, not unlike their ancestors who donned animal skins to divine the future or celebrate saints and martyrs.

Amid modern festivities like trick-or-treating, pumpkin carving, and parties, you might spot a few spooky decorations that look like the one pictured here—a chimera of Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris. Perched high above the city, this mythical creature is often mistaken for a gargoyle, but unlike its waterspout cousins, the chimera is purely decorative. So today, let's remember the shadows and stories that dance around the edges of our brightly lit celebrations. Happy Halloween!

恐怖的高度 The heights of horror

弗兰肯斯坦星期五

想象自己站在阿尔卑斯山的最高峰,那里空气清新,景色令人叹为观止。勃朗峰巍峨的存在,在文学史上留下了不可磨灭的印记,其中最著名的当属玛丽·莱的《弗兰肯斯坦》。每年十月的最后一个星期五是“弗兰肯斯坦星期五”,以纪念玛丽·雪莱的文学天赋和在她想象中诞生的迷人生物。《弗兰肯斯坦》是在一次鬼故事挑战赛中构思出来的。1816年,18岁的玛丽·雪莱与珀西·比希·雪莱、约翰·波利多里和拜伦勋爵一起,在瑞士度过了一个风雨交加的夏天。在那里,她写了《维克多·弗兰肯斯坦与怪物》的故事。小说中的一个关键场景发生在勃朗峰附近的冰川上,维克多在那里与他创造的怪物面对面。险峻的地形让这一场景具有超现实的美感,同时完美捕捉到敬畏和恐怖的双重感觉。

《弗兰肯斯坦》又名《弗兰肯斯坦——现代普罗米修斯的故事》,于1818年首次匿名出版。玛丽·雪莱运用信体小说的形式将哥特式和早期科幻小说融为一体,使《弗兰肯斯坦》成为永恒的经典。

Frankenstein Friday

Picture yourself at the highest peak in the Alps, where the air is crisp and the views are breathtaking. The towering presence of Mont Blanc has left an indelible mark on literature, most notably on Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein.' The last Friday of October is Frankenstein Friday, honoring Shelley's literary genius and the fascinating creature born from her imagination. 'Frankenstein' was conceived during a ghost story challenge. In 1816, an 18-year-old Shelley, along with fellow writers Percy Bysshe Shelley, John Polidori, and Lord Byron, spent a stormy summer in Switzerland. Forced inside by incessant rain, she penned the tale of Victor Frankenstein and the Creature. A pivotal scene in the novel takes place on a glacier near Mont Blanc, where Victor is confronted by his monstrous creation. This setting, with its surreal beauty and treacherous terrain, perfectly captures a sense of awe and terror.

'Frankenstein,' also known as 'Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus,' was first published anonymously in 1818. Shelley's use of the epistolary form—a novel told through letters—and her blend of Gothic and early science fiction made 'Frankenstein' a timeless classic.

比赛开始! Game on

夏季残奥会在巴黎开幕

今天,夏季残奥会在巴黎开幕。来自世界各地的4000多名运动员将齐聚法国首都,参加22个运动项目、549个不同赛事的角逐。作为首次举办夏季残奥会的城市,巴黎为开幕式准备了特别的节目。来自184个国家的代表团将沿着著名的香榭丽舍大街游行至协和广场,而不是进入体育场。首届正式残奥会于1960年在罗马举行。23个国家参加了比赛,角逐包括轮椅篮球和残疾人田径在内的8个项目。

今天的图片带我们来到巴黎的著名景点:蒙马特街区的圣心大教堂。这座教堂建成于1914年,矗立在巴黎最高点之一的顶端。从这里可以俯瞰整个城市,埃菲尔铁塔、巴黎圣母院、先贤祠等美景尽收眼底。如果你来巴黎是为了观看残奥会,那么这里是领略主办城市美景的绝佳地点。

Paralympic Games begin in Paris

The Summer Paralympic Games get underway in Paris today. Over 4,000 athletes with a range of disabilities from all around the world will meet in the French capital to compete across 549 different events. For its first time hosting the Summer Paralympics, the city has got something special in store for the opening ceremony. Delegations from 184 nations will parade down the iconic Champs-Élysées to the Place de la Concorde, rather than entering a stadium. The first official Paralympic Games were held in Rome in 1960. Twenty-three nations took part, competing in eight sports, including wheelchair basketball and Para athletics.

Today's image takes us to an icon of Parisian life: the Sacré-Cœur Basilica in the Montmartre neighborhood. The church, which was completed in 1914, stands at the top of one of the highest points in Paris. It offers impressive views over the city, taking in the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, the Panthéon, and much more. If you're in Paris to enjoy the Paralympics, it's the perfect spot to soak up the beauty of the host city.

夏季奥运会在巴黎开幕

今天是巴黎夏季奥运会开幕的日子。“之城”巴黎成为继伦敦之后第二个第三次举办夏季奥运会的城市。这届奥运会的独特之处在于其开幕式:参赛选手不再站在体育场内,而将乘坐队沿塞纳河游行,两岸观众会为之欢呼。其实,这不是巴黎第一次打破陈规了。在1900年的巴黎奥运会中,虽然在997名参赛运动员中只有22名是女性,但这是历史上第一次有女运动员参加奥运会。

自1923年塞纳河因污染和安全问题被禁止游泳后,今年的奥运会选手将首次获准重返塞纳河,参加各种游泳比赛。现在,一项耗资15亿美元的清理计划已经落实到位,以保持塞纳河河水的洁净,确保未经处理的水不会流入塞纳河,从而保证游泳者的安全。图中的新桥是塞纳河上最广为人知的地标之一。其他横跨塞纳河的华丽桥梁还包括亚历大三世桥,它将成为巴黎奥运会马拉松游泳比赛的终点线。

Summer Olympics begin in Paris

Welcome to Paris, the City of Light, which is hosting the Summer Olympics for the third time. What makes these Games unique is the opening ceremony, which will be held outside a stadium for the first time. Participants will parade along the Seine on a flotilla of boats, passing under the Pont Neuf, pictured here, and cheered by spectators lining both banks. Paris is no stranger to historic firsts; the 1900 Games included women competing for the first time, although they made up only 22 of 997 athletes.

These Games are set to be rather special: Breakdancing will make its Summer Olympic debut in Paris. Competitors will be scored by a panel of nine judges who will look out for creativity and personality, along with other criteria. This could be a one-off, as breakdancing hasn't been included in the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles. The surfing event at Paris 2024 is also rather unique: the competition will take place in Tahiti, part of French Polynesia. Almost 10,000 miles away from the host city, Tahiti was chosen because the island's huge waves make it perfect for surfing.

珊瑚礁保护意识周

盛开的柱状珊瑚、绿色的海和五颜六色的珊瑚鱼,欢迎来到珊瑚礁这个欣欣向荣的水下世界。从7月15日到21日,珊瑚礁保护意识周是向他们致敬的最佳时机。珊瑚礁是由被称为珊瑚虫的微小海洋生物形成的,珊瑚虫创造了巨大的群落,为各种海洋物种提供了家园。当我们把注意力转向它们的美丽和益处的同时,认识到潜在的威胁(气候变化、污染和有害的人类活动)也至关重要。

今天的照片展示的是印度洋海面下的天堂马约特岛。这座法属岛屿拥有世界上最大、最深的泻之一,周围环绕着近100英里长的珊瑚礁。马约特岛的泻湖是250多种珊瑚和3500多种海洋物种的家园。但它正面临着众多威胁,包括过度捕捞和珊瑚白化(即珊瑚体内的共生藻离开或死亡,珊瑚就会变白,最终因失去营养供应而死)。因此,本周让我们共同承诺保护这些美丽的珊瑚礁!轻轻潜入水下,因为一滴水都能惊扰到这些生灵。

Coral Reef Awareness Week

Blooming pillar corals, green sea turtles, and colorful reef fishes—welcome to the underwater universe of coral reefs. They are formed by tiny marine organisms called coral polyps, which create vast colonies housing many species. As we celebrate their beauty and benefits, it's vital to recognize the lurking threats of climate change, pollution, and harmful human activities.

This underwater scene was photographed at Mayotte, a French island region in the Indian Ocean. Mayotte boasts one of the world's largest and deepest lagoons, encircled by a coral reef nearly 100 miles long. It is home to over 250 species of coral and more than 3,500 marine species. But it is facing numerous threats, including overfishing and coral bleaching, where corals expel the algae that live in their tissues, leading to a loss of color and essential energy sources. So, in Coral Reef Awareness Week, let's pledge to preserve coral reefs like this one.

绍塞群岛,法国

绍塞群岛位于圣米歇尔山海湾北部,是诺曼底群岛的一部分。这是一个梦幻般的群岛,不仅有轻抚着岗岩的海浪,还有在退潮时会展现出迷宫般的小岛和沙洲的大海。大岛是群岛中的一颗明珠,它在第一缕阳中醒来,沐浴在温暖着石屋的柔和光线中。渔民们在准备渔,海鸥在为日出伴奏。

这里的每一块岩石、每一朵浪花、每一粒沙子似乎都满载着悠久的传说、水手的故事以及深埋的宝藏。追寻宁静的游客漫步在小径上,会发现引人遐思的神秘海滩和清澈的海水。绍塞群岛是一个自然奇观,潮水在这里不停地跳着芭蕾舞,重新勾勒出陆地的轮廓,让英吉利海峡上的这颗明珠每时每刻都呈现出新的面貌。在这里,时间停滞不前,灵魂的渴求有了回应。

黑夜中的一盏明灯 A light in the night

普卢马纳克的灯塔,法国

布列塔尼阿摩尔滨海省的粉红色岗岩海岸线是世界上独一无二的景点。它绵延约十公里,穿过特雷伯当、特雷加斯泰勒和佩罗斯-吉雷克等市镇。这些花岗岩石形成于近3亿年前,它们从岩浆腔中慢慢冷却而成,并富含外来矿物质。与科西嘉岛中国等其他类似的海岸不同,这片海岸的特点是矿物杂乱无章,巨石层层叠叠,或在侵蚀作用下形成柔和的圆角结构。

普卢马纳克灯塔矗立在这片壮观景观的中心,又被称为 "Mean Ruz"(该词为布列塔尼语,意为“红色的石头”),这与灯塔建造在岩石上有关。灯塔高15米,与周围的自然环境融为一体。现在的灯塔取代了建于1860年、毁于1944年的初代灯塔房。如今,该灯塔已成为粉红色花岗岩海岸的标志性象征,吸引着来自世界各地的游客。

马赛迎来奥运火炬

准备好在法国马赛享受阳奥林匹克精神吧。马赛是一座充满活力的海滨城市,以其丰富的海洋遗产和文化多样性而闻名,是通往地中海的门户。今天,奥运火炬的到来点燃了这里期待奥运的热潮。作为连接现代奥运会与古希腊文化遗产的一个象征,奥运火炬于4月16日在希腊奥林匹亚点燃,奥运圣火就此开启环绕法国的旅程,直至抵达巴黎奥运会。夏季奥运会将于7月26日开幕,而马赛正在为举办奥运会帆船比赛做准备,这座城市充满活力,将传统与创新融为一体。

在今天的图片中,我们可以从远处看到伊夫城堡,它作为大仲马作品《基督伯爵》中的一个重要场景而闻名于世。这座建于16世纪的城堡屹立在蔚蓝的海水中,低声诉说着它作为文艺复兴时期堡垒、监狱以及文学缪斯女神的过去。

Marseille welcomes the Olympic torch

Get ready to soak up the sun and Olympic spirit in Marseille, France. A coastal city rich in maritime heritage and cultural diversity, today it welcomes the arrival of the Olympic torch on French soil. The fire was lit in Olympia, Greece, on April 16. Symbolizing the link between the modern games and their ancient Greek heritage, the flame embarks on its journey around host nation France, ahead of the Paris Olympics. The Summer Olympics will begin on July 26. As Marseille prepares to host the Olympic sailing competition, the city pulsates with energy, blending tradition with innovation.

The Château d'If, seen from afar in today's image, featured in Alexandre Dumas' famous novel 'The Count of Monte Cristo.' Standing steadfast amidst the azure waters, the château, built in the 16th century, whispers tales of its past as a Renaissance fortress, prison, and literary muse.
