小故事

Colors of Hungary
匈牙利民俗
A doll dressed in Hungarian folk costume — this is the most popular and sort of the souvenir the tourists take home with from Hungary — the colors of unique charm, the dolls enchant. But only a few people know that not only is this wonderful item, folk doll, available on the shelf of souvenir shops among the cold walls of museums, but it is a living reality. It is visible, tangible and can be experienced. It is a rarity, which is not disappeared in the modern life.
这是一个身穿匈牙利民族服装的布偶,是游客们最爱买回家的纪念品。布偶身上独特的色彩散发着无穷魅力。但是很少有人意识到,它们不仅是博物馆的冰冷外墙之间的纪念品商店里摆设的精美商品,也是当地人的现实生活——看得见,摸得着,可以尽情感受。这是能在现代生活中存活的少有传统。
Holloko, possibly the most charming Hungarian village in the mountains of the northeast, is also part of the world heritage.
霍罗克可能是匈牙利东北部山区最具魅力的村庄,也是世界文化遗产的一部分。
Local people as well as tourists can admire age-old wedding ceremonies of this region. The bride's trousseau is transported along the main street for the whole world to see all the brightly decorated stuff — a sign of the family's wealth. Tradition also calls for a joined-community effort to make the newly weds an anticipation for many children to come.
当地人和游客们可以看到旧式的婚礼仪式。新娘的嫁妆要穿过主要的街道,向世人展示这些装饰精美的物件——也象征着家庭的财力。传统还提倡大家都参与进来,预示着新婚夫妇次来子孙满堂。
