7月25日,正在福建福州召開的第44屆世界文化遺產大會正式將中國"泉州:宋元中國的世界海洋商貿中心"項目列入《世界遺產名錄》,成為中國第56處世界遺產。
The new entry includes 22 sites and monuments across Quanzhou, which reflect a prosperous picture of maritime trade from the 10th to 14th centuries.
泉州系列遺產由22處古跡遺址構成,它們共同展現了10-14世紀高度繁榮的海上貿易的場景。
The Song (960-1279) and Yuan (1271-1368) dynasties witnessed a peak in ancient Chinese maritime trade, and Quanzhou, then known overseas as Zayton, grew into one of the busiest seaports in the world.
宋元時期見證了中國古代海上貿易的鼎盛時期,當時的"刺桐港"是世界上最繁忙的海港之一,刺桐就是現在的泉州。
The 22 representative historic monuments and sites include administrative buildings and structures; facilities showing the city's structure, such as its gates, walls and roads; religious sites and statues that witnessed multicultural communities; cultural memorial sites and monuments; iron and ceramic production sites and the city's transportation network formed by bridges, docks and pagodas that guided voyages.
22處申遺點包括行政管理機構遺址,由城門、城墻、路網等構成的城市格局關鍵設施遺跡,多元社群宗教建筑和造像,文化紀念地史跡,陶瓷和冶鐵生產基地,以及由橋梁、碼頭、航標塔組成的水陸交通網絡。
