Porvoo , Finland 芬兰波尔沃 : 点点的枣红色 The Red Shore Houses On The River Bank


点点的枣红色

岸边那点点的枣红色
洒红了滴滴的清水涧
极像那乐高的小房屋
萌起了未泯的幼童心

仰望
那沿岸枣红的小木屋
映红
那含羞答答的小古镇
不想
付托于繁华的摩天楼
只愿
栖息于简朴的乐高屋



The Red Shore Houses On The River Bank

The red shore houses dotted the river bank
Splashing colour onto the quiet flow
Like the Lego houses of wooden plank
Opening the kiddie heart with pleasant glow

Not craving for the skyscrapers surge
mushrooming in the bustling crown
But yearning for the red shore houses merge
comfortably at the edge of a humble town

Mode of Transport : Bus from Helsinki ( 11.80 Euro, 1 hr )

Comment :  The red shore houses on the river bank of  Borga a Porvoonjoki is a highlight of Porvoo. According to sources, red ochre paint was used to paint the shore houses in the late 18th century in honour of King Gustav III's arrival. All of the houses along his route were painted in order to make them look more beautiful. It was also said that the red ochre also helped protect the logs from wind and sun damage. These red shore houses have indeed added colour and charm to the small town of Porvoo.

地点 : 芬兰波尔沃

交通 : 从赫尔辛基搭巴士,为时1小时 ( 11.80 欧元 )


评语 :波尔沃河边的小红屋是波尔沃最吸引游客的地点。 当

时为了迎接古斯塔夫王三世,把沿河一带的屋子漆上了红色。

也有说红漆能保护屋子的木,不被风吹雨打破坏。这些小红屋

的确给了不少的光彩于这古老的小镇。



Porvoo, Finland 芬兰波尔沃: 这是个舞台 Here Is A Stage


这是个舞台

这是个舞台
树木是演员
燕瘦和环肥
婀娜又多姿
载歌与载舞
竞艺现争辉



Here Is A Stage 

Here is a stage where
Trees are the actresses
Don in dresses of varied sizes
Gracefully and elegantly present
The pitter-patter of songs and dances
Pitting against all odds
Securing the final limelight

Comment : Porvoo is a small town which you could cover within a couple of hours. However, this little corner which I have accidentally discovered, is presently a breathtaking spot tucked in a remote corner of the town,  hidden from the limelight of tourists. So, there was not a soul when I trod the path to this haven, savouring the quiet and beholding the beauty of the vicinity.

Note : This corner is on the left of the bridge leading to the Cathedral.

评语 :波尔沃是个一两小时可以看完的芬兰小镇。但是,我

无意间发现的这个偏僻角落可以让你流连忘返。这是被游客忽

略的一个小角落,虽无人烟,但风景宜人,而且也非常安全,

莫须恐慌和担忧,来到这里,就需尽情的放松,享受一个人

与世无争的世界吧!


注 :这角落位于大教堂前的桥的左边。

Suomenlinna, Helsinki , Finland 芬兰赫尔辛基芬兰堡 : 梦寐的家园 My Dream Home


梦寐的家园

明镜的河流
延绵的小径
婀娜的树木
白色的小屋
那不就是我
梦寐的家园

My Dream Home

With 
mirror-like creek,
meandering path,
gracefully dancing trees,
and
a white exquisite cottage
is
the dream home I pursue
