如何介绍一个旅游地点

王立新

【技巧点拨】

一、技法指导

介绍旅游地点通常是以说明为主、描写为辅、叙述为主线的说明文。写作时要做到要点全面，语言简洁明了，引人入胜。时态常用一般现在时。

在描写过程中，用简洁的语言说明它的地理位置、人文历史以及旅游路线等。这种文章的写法比较灵活，在描写的过程中可以抒发感情，夹叙夹议。一篇好的文章不仅能引导读者跟作者一起欣赏美丽的风景，还能启迪人的思想，陶冶人的情操，给人以美的享受。

二、常用句式

1. 介绍地理位置：be located in...; be situated in...; lie in...; stand at the foot of / on the top of...

2. 介绍气候：the weather / climate there is...; it is warm all year around; rain a lot

3. 介绍人口：... has a population of...; a city / country with a population of...

4. 介绍面积：... has / covers an area of... square kilometers; （a city） with an area of... square kilometers

5. 介绍历史：... has a long history of... years; has witnessed too much coming and going in history

6. 介绍名胜古迹：places of interest / historical spots

7. 介绍特色：（The place） is famous for...; The special character of the place is...

8. 介绍交通：It is very convenient for...; The best way to experience... is...; It takes... to take a bus from... to...; ... is only 20 minutes' drive from downtown; ... is within easy reach
