“天堂之光”-巴厘岛
Have you heard of Bali, a place to the south of Indonesia
Its a small island but is becoming more and more famousby its fascinating tourist attractions enjoyed by hundreds ofthousands of people from world at large.
听说过“巴厘岛”吗?它是印度尼西亚南部的一颗明珠。这座小岛神奇的景致名扬四海,吸引成千上万来自世界各地的旅客。
Bali is so picturesque that you could be fooled intothinking it was a painted backdrop: rice paddies trip downhillsides like giant steps, volcanoes soar through the clouds, theforests are lush and tropical, and the beaches are lapped by thewarm waters of the Indian Ocean. But the postcard paradisegloss has been manufactured and polished by the internationaltourist industry rather than by the Balinese themselves whodont even have a word for paradise in their language.
巴厘岛之美,让你惊叹那一定是一幅背景图画。稻田沿着山脊层层而下,宛如巨大的天梯,火山冲天喷发,森林茂盛繁密,沙滩被印度洋温暖海水包围着。这迷人的景色,各国旅游业纷纷制作明信片,将之定义为“天堂之光”,而巴厘岛人的字典里甚至没有“天堂”这个词。
