岳陽樓
岳陽樓(Yueyang Tower)矗立在湖南省岳陽市洞庭湖岸邊，是“江南三大名樓”之一，另外兩座分別是滕王閣(Tengwang Pavilion)和黃鶴樓(Yellow Crane Tower)。自古以來，岳陽樓一直有“岳陽天下?lián)?rdquo;之稱，與有“洞庭天下水”之稱的洞庭湖齊名。最初岳陽樓主要是軍用的，用于指揮海上艦隊(duì)以及舉行閱兵儀式 (military review)。著名的《岳陽樓記》由北宋偉大的作家范仲淹所作，它使岳陽樓聲名遠(yuǎn)播，成為中國南方著名的景點(diǎn)。岳陽樓的結(jié)構(gòu)在中國古代建筑史上是獨(dú)一無二的，具有無與倫比的藝術(shù)價值。

黃鶴樓
黃鶴樓(Yellow Crane Tower)位于湖北省武漢市蛇山(Snake Hill),享有“天下江山第一樓”之稱。它是江南最著名的塔樓之一。由于地理位置優(yōu)越，孫權(quán)將黃鶴樓建成軍隊(duì)瞭望塔(watchtower)。數(shù)百年來，其軍事用途逐漸被遺忘，而主要被當(dāng)做風(fēng)景如畫的景點(diǎn)欣賞。唐代有許多膾炙人口的詩篇贊美黃鶴樓。正是這些詩，黃鶴樓才能如此著名，吸引人們前來參觀。不同朝代，黃鶴樓有不同的建筑特色。然而，今天的黃鶴樓是基于淸朝塔樓建造的。
參考譯文：
Located on Snake Hill in Wuhan, Hubei Province, Yellow Crane Tower is enjoying the fame of "The First Scenery under Heaven". It is one of the most famous towers at the south of the Yangtze River. Due to the ideal location, it was built by Sun Quan, Emperor of Wu, as a watchtower for his army. After hundreds of years,its military function was gradually forgotten and the tower served mainly as a picturesque spot. During the Tang Dynasty, many popular poems were written in praise of the Yellow Crane Tower. It was these poems that made the tower so renowned and attractive for people to visit. The tower had different architectural features in different dynasties. However, the tower which stands today is based on the one designed during the Qing Dynasty.
