Chapter 399: Dresden
Dresden, as one of the major tourist cities in Germany, is an important town for cultural heritage tourism.
Qu Lihua was here for the first time, and she was very curious, so she asked Robin: "Mr. Robin, can you tell us about the name of this city and the characteristics of this city?"
Robin nodded and smiled, "Okay, Dresden means people of the riverside forest, in Dresden, Germany, it is the face of culture, the capital and the largest city in Saxony, Germany, one of the ten major cities in Germany, and the second largest city in eastern Germany after the capital Berlin." ”
"This city is still very famous, you must come to Germany to see it!" said head Xia Yuxiang.
"When I came to Germany before, I heard people tell me that Dresden is an important economic center in Germany, an important scientific research center in Germany, with the highest proportion of researchers in large German cities, and is the core of the 'German Silicon Valley'. ”
"Yes, the city is still very strong, it is the second largest city after Berlin, it is still a very important city in Germany, the education industry is very good, and the Technical University of Dresden, the only university in the six new federal states to be selected as one of the top universities in the TU9 and the elite universities in Germany, has trained a lot of talent. ”
"Historically, Dresden was the capital of the Kingdom of Saxony for a long time, and for a period of time also served as the capital of Poland, with a history of prosperity for hundreds of years, splendid culture and art, the highest urban greening rate in Europe and many exquisite Baroque buildings, known as one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. ”
Qu Lihua nodded, " It was my first time to come to Germany, we had only heard of Berlin in our textbooks before, and when the teachers explained Germany, they would often mention Berlin, the capital of Germany, and knew less about other cities in Germany. ”
Meng Wenjie nodded, "Yes, I also think that coming to Germany has learned a lot of knowledge that we didn't know before, and it has also expanded our horizons, we can learn about the world through news and some documentaries and travel programs in China, but it is just staying on TV and programs, I came to see it in person, I felt very deeply, I gained a lot this time, and I also learned a lot of knowledge, thanks to Robin." ”
Robin smiled, "You're welcome, I'm Dean Zhang's student, and I'm a Chinese son-in-law, I'm German, I know the local area better, Dean Zhang called me, I promised to be a tour guide, of course I have to do my job well, everyone is in Germany, you can call me if you need help, I will be happy to serve you." ”
Head Xia Yuxiang smiled hungry, "Everyone praises Robin for being very good, Robin is also a warm-hearted person, thanks to his hospitality, our trip to Germany is very smooth, next, I ask Robin to borrow the history of this city for everyone, everyone will be interested!"
"Okay, welcome!" everyone applauded.
Robin thanked him and began to tell slowly, "Dresden was the city with the highest consumption level in Europe before World War II, and was bombed by the Allies on a large scale in the late part of World War II. ”
"Also known as 'Florence on the Elbe', everyone has been to Florence, I believe it has been introduced before, Florence has been influenced by the Renaissance, very artistic atmosphere, whether it is architecture or painting art, with a strong artistic atmosphere. ”
The structure and appearance of the city's districts also differ, with many areas still containing an old rural core, while others have almost entirely preserved their rural layout, and another type of area is the former suburbs, with its dotted villa settlements.
"I'll take you to take a look, let's walk and see, you can feel the atmosphere, there are some old buildings!,"
Later, many apartment buildings were built, and the districts of Dresden were a mixture of the various districts mentioned above, and due to the mild climate of Dresden and the suitable location for the construction of the city, as well as the exquisite Baroque architecture on the Elbe, Dresden was nicknamed "Florence am Elbe".
Qu Lihua and Meng Wenjie looked at those very special classical buildings, and they were still very emotional, these buildings have gone through the test of the vicissitudes of time and are still standing here.
"This is the architectural style of the city, there are a lot of old buildings that have been preserved, which is not easy, although during World War II, it was damaged to a certain extent, but it was restored and some old buildings were preserved!"
Dresden's main river is the Elbe, the only navigable river that flows through the city, and many mountainous tributaries join the Elbe in this section.
Since Dresden is located on both sides of the Elbe, there are a number of tributaries that originate in the mountains and flow through the choke point of the inner city.
The scenery is still very beautiful, Qu Lihua stands here and looks at the environment here is still well protected, the river water is not polluted, it is still clear, and people can consciously abide by the rules and do not litter.
Such a beautiful scenery is pleasing to the eye, Robin told everyone: "Dresden is one of the best economic development among the former East German cities, and its economic foundation is much better than that of other cities in the former East Germany, and the development rate is even higher than that of many West German cities." ”
"Dresden's economy was once quite important among German cities, and in the former East German period, Dresden's economic growth was much lower than that of West German cities, but it was still an important industrial center in East Germany, which was relatively wealthy. ”
"When it came to a market economy and at the same time faced strong competition from West German companies, Dresden withstood the test, after which Dresden established a new legal and circulation system, brought in West German capital to rebuild the infrastructure, and its economy is in the process of rapid recovery. ”
"Many factories have been built here, and fabs and other factories have attracted many suppliers and non-polluting companies to Dresden, which today has developed into a field that covers electronics and microelectronics. ”
"It is still developing very well, this is the advantage of the city, the economy has gradually developed, there has been a great progress compared to before, it has also driven the local economy, there is industry, the development of factories, and the development of tourism, the number of tourists who come here every year has gradually increased, everyone likes the beautiful scenery here, and the local flavor of the food, and I also want to come here to feel the local customs. ”
