The synopsis of The Daughter of the Sea is that the sea king has a beautiful and kind daughter, a mermaid. The little mermaid fell in love with the prince, and in pursuit of love and happiness, she endured great pain and took off her fish body and changed it into a human form. But the prince finally married a woman on earth. The witch told the little mermaid that as long as the prince was killed and his blood flowed to his legs, the little mermaid could return to the sea and live a carefree life again. She jumped into the sea and turned it into foam. The Danish people admire the little mermaid's spirit of sacrifice and noble sentiment. In order to commemorate her forever, this bronze statue of the little mermaid was carefully made. Some of the models of the statue were ballet dancers who performed at the Royal Danish Theatre at that time, and some were the sculptor's wife. This bronze statue is similar in size to a human body. Its lower limbs are fishtail-shaped, and its upper body is a vivid beauty with a quiet expression and a little shy and melancholy. The mermaid statue is a symbol of Denmark.

Broken chains were scattered on her feet, and her right heel was lifted to March. On the whole, she is an image of a rebel who breaks free from shackles and goes forward bravely. Goddess is noble. And its dignified and plump posture is like an ancient Greek beauty, which makes people feel kind and natural. When dusk falls, the light on the pedestal of the statue shines upward, reflecting a light blue jade carving of the Statue of Goddess. The light from the window of the goddess' crown seems to be a string of golden light on the goddess' head, adding a spectacular night scene to the bustling metropolis. French sculptor Bater Dee created this masterpiece. The image of the goddess originated from an exciting scene he witnessed at the age of 65,438+07: in 65,438+08,565,438+0, louis bonaparte staged a coup to overthrow the Second French Republic. One day, a group of * * * Republicans spread out their defense business in the street and started street fighting with political changers. At dusk, a girl loyal to * * * and the regime, holding a burning torch, jumped over obstacles and shouted the slogan "Forward" and rushed at the enemy. Unfortunately, she was shot and killed. Since then, this brave girl holding the torch has become a symbol of the sculptor's pursuit of freedom. In addition, the image of the Statue of Liberty is based on Bater Di's later wife, and the face is taken from his mother.

4. Germany: Brandenburg Gate
Brandenburg Gate is located in the center of Dublin, Germany. It is a symbol of Berlin and Germany.
As early as 1769, Charlemagne put forward the plan to build the Brandenburg Gate. Karl Langans, then director of the General Administration of Palace Construction, was in charge of this project. 1788 started construction. 179 1 year, the Brandenburg gate was completed. This majestic building fully shows the majesty of the capital of Prussia in its heyday.
Langens is one of the earliest representatives of German classical art. In the design of Brandenburg Gate, he referred to the style of ancient Greek Weicheng Gate to make it rich in classical architectural style. Brandenburg Gate is 20m high, 65.5m wide and 1 1 m deep. It has five channels, and the middle channel is wider than the four channels on both sides. It is specially designed for members of the royal family. Each of the five channels has six columns with a height of 14m and a diameter of 1.73m, which correspond to each other. There is a wall between the front and rear columns to separate five passages respectively. The top of the door is trapezoidal, and the front is inlaid with large relief. The top of the door is the highest in the center, and there is a bronze statue of the goddess of victory driving a four-horse and two-wheeled vehicle. On the iron cross raised by the goddess' right hand stood an eagle spreading its wings. This 6-meter-high statue is the elaborate work of German sculptor Shadov. This is a symbol of the victory of the war that year. From 1756 to 1763, the kingdom of Prussia was finally unified by the German federal state after seven years of war.
From the completion of the Brandenburg Gate in 179 1 to the unification of East and West in 1990+00.3, the Brandenburg Gate experienced 200 years of war baptism. 1807, after the French emperor Napoleon occupied Prussia, he took away the Statue of Victory. It was not until 18 14 that Napoleon was defeated in Leipzig and abdicated in Fontainebleau that the goddess of victory was brought back from Paris by the Germans. /kloc-in the 0/9th century, the German Empire rose, and the Brandenburg Gate became a parade platform to show German force. During Hitler's fascist rule, Brandenburg Gate became a place for the Third Reich to show off its force and political propaganda, and a dazzling Nazi party flag hung on the door.
1945, the statue of the goddess of victory was destroyed by artillery fire in World War II, and the iron cross and eagle eagle in the hands of the goddess were removed when recasting in 1958. After the end of World War II, East and West Berlin split, so Brandenburg Gate became a symbol of the division of Germany after experiencing the glory of victory and the shame of failure. 196 1 August, the Berlin Wall was built in East Germany and extended along the left and right sides of the Brandenburg Gate. 1989 19 In February, the Berlin Wall was demolished and the Brandenburg Gate was surrounded for 28 years. 1990 10 10.

At the corner of "Ai Du House" near the central square of Belgian capital, there is a striking bronze statue of "Peeing Child". This fluffy-haired, nose-turned-up, naked child smiled and stood on a marble pedestal about 2 meters high, urinating like no one's watching. His "urine" is like a trickle, which falls in the pool below for years. His lively posture and vivid appearance that day are very realistic and lovable! This is little Julian, whom the Belgian people call "the first citizen of Brussels". According to legend, foreign invaders are preparing to blow up Brussels. Lian used his quick wits to douse the burning fuse with a bubble of urine, thus saving the ancient city of Brussels and the whole city.

Russia: Kremlin
Gong Ke is a world-famous building complex, enjoying the reputation of "the eighth wonder of the world" and is a must-see for tourists. /kloc-In the first half of the 20th century, the Grand Duke of Dolgoruki built a wooden castle, the Kremlin, and Moscow gradually developed. The present red brick was built between 1485 and 1495. Roughly triangular. The palace wall is 2235 meters long, 5 to 19 meters high and 3.5 to 6.5 meters thick. * * * There are four city gates and nineteen towers.
The famous "Kremlin clock" originated from the clock on the Basque Tower and was installed from 185 1 to 1852. The clock connected to the observatory is the most accurate.
The tower is 67.3 meters high, and the gate below is the main access to Keke Palace. But in the past, people who entered the door had to take off their hats, otherwise they would be fined 50 times. Don't be afraid, I won't let you in!
To the west of Keke Palace are the Alexander Garden and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Newlyweds all come here to offer flowers. Many brides will feast your eyes.
Now, Manesh's underground shopping malls and squares have been built and integrated with the garden. Fountains and sculptures can be seen everywhere. The tomb of the Unknown Soldier is solemn. It was built before 1967 Victory Day to commemorate the people who died in World War II. The long open flame on the tombstone has been burning since it was ignited. The tombstone reads: "Your name is unknown, and your achievements will last forever." When foreign leaders come, they will all come here to offer flowers. There is also the changing ceremony of the first post in the country. It's good. Legs up.
To visit Keke Palace, you need to pass through Kuta fiata. The first thing I saw was the conference building, which is a modern building with 6000 seats. The interior decoration is luxurious. In addition to meetings, it is also a place for high-level performances.
Go further, and you will see the king of cannon and the king of bell. The gun king has a history of more than 400 years. The gun weighs 40 tons and the muzzle diameter is 0.92 meters. There are four shell casings piled in front of the gun, each weighing 2 tons. There are exquisite reliefs on the gun mount, as well as the statue of Tsar fedor. Because it is too heavy and too big, it has never been used.
Zhong Wang, well-deserved, weighs 202 tons, is 6.14m high and 6.60m in diameter. It is four and a half times heavier than the Yongle Bell in Beijing. 1735 was cast for two years, but due to a fire, a piece fell from the clock, weighing 1 1.5 tons. There are statues of Tsar Alexei and Empress Anna, and statues on the clock.
Next to Zhong Wang is the clock tower of Ivan the Great, which was built in the Great White Stone. Up to 8 1 meter. It used to be the highest point in Moscow. There are more than a dozen ancient clocks hanging in the building. Whenever it rings, it can be heard far away.
Further on, is the Church Square, the oldest square in Moscow? s？ The magnificent White Stone Church at the top is the Ascension Church of Our Lady (also known as Ushiji), where the archduke and czar of past dynasties held coronation ceremonies. Built in 1480 by Italian architects.
On the right side of the square is the Angel Church, also called Blagovescenschi, near moscow river. Small in scale, but the most attractive is the family chapel of the palace, which is also the place where the royal wedding is held, and the oldest icon mural in Russia is preserved.
The angel church opposite is the king's mausoleum. After moving the capital to Petersburg, emperors of past dynasties were reburied in the "Peter Paul Cathedral" in Petrograd.
The Grand Kremlin is the imperial palace of the czars of past dynasties, with a white, blue and red Russian flag on the dome. Now this is the place where the Russian president works, but unfortunately it is not allowed to visit. Or maybe we can meet Putin!
Further down are the Weapons Museum and the Diamond Museum, which are actually the array museums of Russian czars' valuables, built in 185 1. This used to be a place where weapons were made and stored. Famous collections include: crown, pure gold scepter, token, ivory throne with Ivan stalk, diamond treasure house of Tsar Alexei, wedding dress of Catherine II, saddle inlaid with precious stones and sabre. There is also a17th century Bible. The silver cover is inlaid with 30 17 gems and so on. These works are priceless.
