According to the history, the yellow crane tower was first built in 223AD during the three-kingdom period. At the beginning, the tower was originally used for military to observe the enemy’s activity. When the war finished, the tower gradually became a scenic attraction where people can appreciate the view of the city as well as the lake. In ancient time, many literati visited this place, and sometimes even write down poems for it such as Cui hao in Tang Dynasty, he wrote a famous poem which was name YELLO CRANE TOWER, and another famous poet Li bai, whose poems affected the whole dynasty in his time, also visited this beautiful place many times.
Over the centuries the tower had been destroyed by wars for many times, but its popularity with Chinese people ensured that it was always rebuilt. The current tower was completed in 1985 and its design derived from a picture of Qing dynasty. It stands 51.4meters high and has 5 floors tower has 60 upturned eaves layer upon layer, covered with yellow glazed tiles and supported with 72 huge pillars. The exports comment that it is an authentic reproduction of both the exterior and interior design, with the exception of the addition of air-conditioner and an elevator. Since ancient time, the yellow crane tower has been regarded as the symbol of Wuhan.
Now we are standing in front of the tower. With yellow upturned eaves, each floor seems to have been designed to resemble a yellow crane spreading its wings to fly. Let’s enter the hall on the first floor. On the wall, there is a nine-meter (about 30 feet) long and six-meter (about 20 feet) wide painted porcelain picture which depicts clouds, rivers and cranes to represent a romantic mood in the heaven. What do you think of the picture? It is very beautiful, isn’t it? Do you know why we call the tower YELLOW CRANE TOWER? The answer lies in the picture. Have you noticed that in the picture there is a Taoist who played a flute and rode an crane gliding through the sky? It is a story about kindness and rewarding.
Long time ago, there was a warm-hearted old man. He was very poor and ran a small wine tavern to earn a living. One day in the summer, the weather was very hot and the sun was very strong, a Taoist dressed in tattered clothes entered the alehouse. He begged the shopkeeper for wine:” Excuse me, I am very thirsty but I haven’t any money. For god’s sake, could you give me a bowl of wine?” “Sure” the shopkeeper smiled: “just help yourself” and gave him a bowl of wine. After that, the Taoist often patronized the tavern and enjoyed the wine without paying money. One year later, the Taoist wanted to reward the poor man. He picked up an orange peel from the ground and drew a magic crane on the wall. When he clapped his hands, the crane can dance with the rhythm. Many people came to watch this miracle. From then on, the tavern was always full of guests. During the ten years, the old man got out of the involvement of poverty and ran a large restaurant. Ten years later, the Taoist revisited the old place. When he met Xin, Xin thanked him. He said: it is your kindness that makes you wealthy. After saying goodbye, the Taoist played the flute and then rode the crane to the sky. In honor of the yellow crane and Taoist, the old man, Xin, built a tower and named it yellow crane tower.
Now we are on the second floor, and we can appreciate various miniature copied the styles from Tang dynasty to Qing dynasty. Now, let us enjoy the yellow crane in Tang dynasty, it has two stories, the first floor was the gate of the wall, the second floor was used for visitors to enjoy the view of the city. I have a question, which resembles with the current tower most, pay attention, please. Right, the design of yellow crane tower was followed a Qing dynasty picture. Let us have a look at the model in Qing dynasty. It has 3stories, the first floor has 12eaves which represent 12 hours in one day, the second floor also has 12eaves and it stands for 12months in a year. The third floor has 24eaves and represents 24 solar terms. It is very interesting to enjoy kinds of models in different dynasties.
On the three floor you can learn something about Chinese ancient culture----poem. Maybe you can try to learn Chinese from poem and show the poem to your family members back home.
If you want to enjoy the Yangtze River and the view of Wuhan, the good choice is to go to the fifth floor. Now it is free time!
Bordering on the Yangtze River and crouching on the top of the Snake Hill, the Yellow Crane Tower is one of the three most famous towers on the south bank of the Yangtze River. (the other two are Yueyang Tower in Hunan and Tengwang Tower in Jiangxi)
First built in 223 AD, the tower has a history of over 1700 years. It is not only an important scenic spot, but also a symbol of “piping times of peace“ in people‘s minds. Scholars in the past dynasties wrote hundreds of poems and scores of writings in praise of the magnificent Yellow Crane Tower. The legend about the tower has become a bright pearl of the Chinese literature.
Rebuilt in 1985, the Yellow Crane Tower Park occupies a hilly area and consists of towers, pavilions and corridors, forming an architecture complex and a garden complex of man--made and natural scenery. It has become the symbol of Wuhan for its long history, its magnificent outlook and its imposing architectural style.
Yellow Crane Tower, located on Snake Hill in Wuchang, is one of the "Three Famous Towers South of Yangtze River (the other two: Yueyang Tower in Hunan and Tengwang Tower in Jiangxi).
Legend has it that in Wuchang, there used to be a wine shop opened by a young man named Xin. One day, a Taoist priest, in gratitude for free wine, drew a magic crane on the wall of the shop and instructed it to dance whenever it heard clapping. Thousands of people came to see the spectacle and the wine shop was always full of guests. After 10 years, the Taoist priest revisited the wine shop. He played the flute and then rode on the crane to the sky. In memory of the supernatural encounter and the priest, the Xins built a tower and named it Yellow Crane Tower.
According to records, the tower was first built in 223 A.D during the Three Kingdoms period (220-280). After completion, the tower served as a gathering place for celebrities and poets to party and compose poetry. It was estimated that up to the Tongzhi Reign of the Qing dynasty, as many as 300 poems about the tower had been found in historical literature. Cui Hao, a famous poet during the Tang dynasty (618-907), made the tower well known throughout China with his poem "Yellow Crane Tower".
Destroyed many times in successive dynasties, the tower was rebuilt time and again until 100 years ago when it was, for the last time, reduced to ashes. The present tower is a complete reconstruction and is the result of four years of work beginning in 1981. Where the old tower was only 15 meters wide, the ground floor of the new structure was increased to 20 meters wide. The tower, 51.4 meters high, is five-storied with yellow tiles and red pillars, overlapping ridges and interlocking eaves, more magnificent than the old one.
The new Yellow Crane Tower is regarded as the symbol of Wuhan city.
各位遊客，你們好。歡迎來到武漢市最有特色的景點黃鶴樓。我叫曾卉茹，是你們的導遊。我一定安排好大家的行程，使大家在這次的旅遊活動感到開心愉快。
下面請大家隨我一起去參觀武漢市最有特色的景點黃鶴樓。
黃鶴樓建在公元220xx年，到現在已經有1788年的歷史裡，期間建了又拆，拆了又建，現在的黃鶴樓是按清代的樣子築成的，在1981年重建，1985年完工建成的。
各位遊客，在黃鶴樓的大廳，最引人注意的要數《白雲黃鶴圖》了，它取材於賀鶴登仙的古神話，兼取唐詩“昔人已乘黃鶴去”之意。其實在這幅壁畫後面，還有一個傳說，請大家仔細看看。
剩下的時間大家可以自由參觀一下，注意不要損壞文物，祝大家玩得開心愉快!
很高興能在這風和日麗的陽春三月陪同您一起暢遊江南名樓——黃鶴樓。我將竭盡所能為您提供全面周到的導遊服務，祝大家玩的開心。
黃鶴樓被中國曆代詩人吟詩誦贊，一直享有天下絕景的美譽，與湖南的岳陽樓，江西的滕王閣並稱為“江南三大名樓”，且以其歷史之悠久，樓姿之雄偉而居三樓之首，享有“天下絕景”的美譽。
大家都知道，大自然中的鶴有很多種類，有白鶴，灰鶴，丹頂鶴，黑頸鶴等等，但是沒有黃鶴，那麼，武漢的老百姓為什麼給自己家鄉的標誌性建築起名叫黃鶴樓呢?這個美麗的名稱來自一段美麗的神化傳說。
很久以前，有一個姓辛的人在黃鵠山頭賣酒度日。一天，有位衣衫襤褸的老道蹣跚而來，向他討酒喝，辛氏的生意雖本小利微，但為人忠實善良，樂善好施。他見老道非常可憐，就慷慨答應。酒足飯飽後，老道非常感激辛氏。後來，老道每日必來，辛氏就有求必應。不知不覺一年過去了。有一天，老道又來到酒店，辛氏一見，急忙準備酒菜招待老道，老道急忙攔住，說今天我不喝酒，我是來向你告別的。又說每日飲酒，無以為謝，但我會畫畫，我給你的酒店畫一幅畫作紀念。說完，老道拾起地上的橘子皮，在牆上畫了起來，不一會兒就畫好了一隻鶴，由於橘子皮的顏色是黃色，所以這隻鶴也是黃色的。
畫完後，老道對辛氏說：只要你拍手相招，黃鶴便會下來，為酒客跳舞助興。辛氏一聽，非常高興，他立即去看老道畫好的鶴，覺得栩栩如生，非常漂亮。他轉身要向老道表示謝意，感謝老道給他的酒店畫了那麼好的一幅畫，可是老道已不知去向。第二天，酒店來了客人，他想起老道的話，拍手一試，果然那隻黃鶴一躍而下，引頸高歌鳴，翩翩起舞，舞畢又跳回牆上，客人十分高興。訊息傳開後，吸引了武漢三鎮的老百姓和遠近的遊人，都來店中看黃鶴起舞。從此酒店生意興隆，辛氏因此發了財。十年後的一天，老道又出現在酒店，辛氏一見，十分高興，拉著老道說，你一去十年，我多方打聽你的下落，不知去向。今天你回來了，請你再也不要離開。
等辛氏講完，老道對辛氏說：不知十年來你所掙的錢，還清了我的酒債了沒有?辛氏急忙說：非常感謝，在你留下的黃鶴的幫助下，我現在非常富有。老道一聽，哈哈大笑，並取下身上所帶的鐵笛，對著牆上的黃鶴吹起一首奇妙的曲調，黃鶴聞聲而起，隨著笛聲唱歌跳舞。一曲吹完，只見老道跨上黃鶴，黃鶴載著老道飛走了，此後老道再也沒有回來過。武漢三鎮的老百姓十分想念這隻給他們帶來幸福吉祥的仙鶴，紛紛建議辛氏在酒店旁建一座樓閣，供奉老道和黃鶴，以資紀念。同時也為雲遊四方的老道和黃鶴指引方向，希望他們早點回來。辛氏接受大家的建議，將多年積攢的錢拿出來在酒店旁蓋起了一座高樓，他有感於黃鶴幫他致富，於是取名為黃鶴樓。千百年來，這個故事廣為傳頌，成為黃鶴樓因仙得名最有影響的傳說。
黃鶴樓始建於三國吳黃武二年，即公元223年，至今約有一千七百多年的歷史，其間屢毀屢建，不絕於世。這是因為黃鶴樓已經不是一般意義上的名勝建築，它反映了一個時代的興衰。自從清同治十年，即公元1884年黃鶴樓被毀後，人們一直企盼著黃鶴樓重現江城，但一直未能如願，直到改革開放後，黃鶴樓才得以重建，這充分反映了我國綜合國力的提高。今天我們參觀的黃鶴樓是以清代黃鶴樓為藍本，於1981年動工修建，1984年建成的，離最後一座黃鶴樓被毀的時間整整有一百年。
黃鶴樓所在的蛇山，是由東西排列而首尾相連的七座山組成，自西而東為黃鵠山，殷家山，黃龍山，高觀山，大觀山，棋盤山，西山，全長二千餘米，因其形同伏蛇，故名蛇山。黃鶴樓建在黃鵠山頂，在古漢語中，“鵠”、“鶴”二字通用，故又稱黃鶴山，黃鶴山上的樓閣，當然就叫黃鶴樓。但是人們更願意接受因仙得名的傳說。
為了使大家更好地觀賞黃鶴樓我用五個字來概括黃鶴樓的特點：高、奇、險、美、妙。高就高在山高樓更高，上刺青天與雲霞比翼;奇就奇在神仙跨鶴，神話流傳;險就險在臨江而立，下臨無地;美就美在登樓遠眺，武漢風光盡收眼底;妙就在妙文人墨客，軼事流傳。
好，現在我們已經來到了黃鶴樓公園。黃鶴樓公園是由主樓、配亭、軒廊、牌坊、古肆商業街等組成。主樓淨高51.4米，共五層，外形類方正，四望如一。每邊長35米，72根大柱拔地而起，60個翹角飛簷凌空，博採歷樓之長，匯北雄南秀之風。金黃色的琉璃屋面古樸富麗，紅葫蘆形寶頂入夜閃閃發光，各層均具有濃厚的詩情畫意。下面我們就一起進主樓看一看吧。
我們現在所在的位置是黃鶴樓的一樓大廳。大廳寬22米，長14米，您看這些古香古色的大柱，周長有兩米，它們直通頂層可以說是整棟樓的擎天柱。迎面的這副“白雲黃鶴圖”，高9米，寬6米，畫面上黃鶴樓居中聳立，上方一仙者騎者黃鶴，吹者鐵笛似離似歸，下面人們載歌載舞，整副畫面洋溢著浪漫神奇的氣氛。畫兩側柱子上還掛者清末重臣張之洞的一副名聯：
大廳名聯後是一巨幅雕屏，上繪歷史上黃鶴樓的造型，技藝高超，又古色古香，堪稱藝術精品。
好，請大家隨我繼續向上參觀。我們現在所在的地方並非二樓，而是一樓與二樓的夾層，俗稱跑馬廊。這樣的跑馬廊每二層之間都有，大家可以算一下，黃鶴樓本有五層，再加上每兩層之間的跑馬廊，內部一共就有九層，因此，黃鶴樓又有了外五內九的建築結構。這裡陳列著一些歷史的名人字畫，大家可以欣賞一下。
大家看，二樓中陳列著唐宋元明清和現代六座黃鶴樓模型。他們各自代表了其處各自時代的建築風格。您瞧，這座唐朝的黃鶴樓，一樓和城相連，外看只有兩層，整體結構比較簡潔粗獷，給人一種古樸雄渾的感覺。再看一下宋代的樓，由樓、臺、軒、廊四部分構成，每層翹首重簷，飛達四敞，展現了宋代精緻雋逸的藝術風格。元代的形式延續了宋代的風格，明代則依然是兩層。大家再看，這裡還有一些布蓬之類的東西，您知道這是什麼用的嗎?沒錯，這就是咱們古時人們用的遮陽傘。請看這邊清朝的黃鶴樓，它分三層，第一層有12個簷，代表著一天12個時辰，第二層十二個簷，代表一年有12個月，第三層的二十四個簷則代表一年24個節氣。能將中國傳統的天文曆法文化融入其中，是它的最神奇之處了，遺憾的是在1884年的夏天也就是清光緒十年，它被雷火擊毀了。最後一座就是現在的黃鶴樓了，它以清代黃鶴樓為基本，於1984年重修，既不失黃鶴樓傳統的獨特造型，又比歷代的樓更加雄偉壯觀。
請大家扶好樓梯隨我到三樓。這裡是一副名為“文人薈粹”的陶版瓷畫。畫面人物神態各異，栩栩如生，再現了歷代文人墨客來此吟詩作賦的情景。您看，中間那位黃袍加身的正是唐代大詩人崔顥。相傳有一年，崔顥慕名來到黃鶴樓，他遊覽後即興賦了一首詩：
故人已乘黃鶴去，此地空餘黃鶴樓。
黃鶴一去不復返，白雲千載空悠悠。
晴川歷歷漢陽樹，芳草萋萋鸚鵡洲。
這首詩意境美妙，是描寫黃鶴樓的一首不可多得的好詩。可是由於唐代著名詩人很多，崔顥名氣又不大，因此，詩雖好，但無人賞識。又一年，詩仙李白來到黃鶴樓，當地老百姓見詩仙來此，十分高興，紛紛要求李白為黃鶴樓寫一首詩。李白遊覽後覺得黃鶴樓傳說奇特，風景優美，於是詩興大發，答應寫詩。人們準備好文房四寶，李白飽蘸濃墨，凝神屏氣，提筆欲寫，可就在這時，他一抬頭，看到了牆上崔顥的詩，他當場就愣住，搖搖頭，擱筆不寫。圍觀的人們不知何故，紛紛詢問為什麼，只見李白嘆了口氣，吟出一首打油詩：
一拳打碎黃鶴樓，一腳踢翻鸚鵡洲。眼前有景道不得，崔顥題詩在上頭!
吟完，擱筆而去。由於李白的推崇，崔顥的詩名聲大振，黃鶴樓也隨著崔顥的詩名傳四方。
四樓是黃鶴樓的文化活動場所，陳列了當代書畫名家遊覽本樓的即興之作，這裡還專門備下了文房四寶，若是哪位遊客有興趣，不妨在此一顯身手。
現在我們來到了黃鶴樓五樓的觀景臺。“欲窮千里目，更上一層樓”，在這裡我們首先看到的是這幅名為“江天浩瀚”的組畫，它面積達90平方米，在全樓壁畫中是最大的。它由10幅彩畫組成，正面牆上的三幅是組畫的中心，第一幅由上而下記載了遠古的長江文化演替發展的過程。第二幅是在石綠底色上用金線描出的水浪佔據了全部畫面，使人似乎站到了長江的一個橫斷面上，感受著急流東去的波濤。第三幅反映的是三國以後黃鶴樓產生和興廢的過程。其它七幅，畫在額枋上，分別是：長江源流，上游瀑布，三峽風光，廬山奇景，太湖風光，江流入海和滄海橫流。
現在再讓我們到西邊觀賞武漢三鎮的美景吧。眼前是滾滾東去的長江和使天塹變通途的長江大橋，還有對面龜山上高聳入雲的電視塔，富麗堂皇的晴川飯店，如彩虹跨江的晴川橋……黃鶴樓像一位老者，穩坐於蛇山之巔見證了武漢滄桑的歷史和日新月異的今天，更以期待的目光展望著繁榮昌盛的未來。
好了，黃鶴樓之行就快開要結束了，希望我的講解能夠給您留下美好的回憶，不足之處還請您多多包涵。歡迎您下次來到江城，還來這裡坐坐。祝大家旅途愉快，一路順風!
