波恩是一座美丽的德国小城,位于莱茵河畔。小城到处是上百年的古老建筑,那结满青苔的外墙好像诉说着它经久不衰的历史。这里有贝多芬的故居,还有洛可可风格的市政厅和漂亮的罗马式明斯特大教堂。它还有一个难以磨灭的印记——曾经的西德临时首都。二战后的德国,休养生息,人口密度不断增大,旧城显得越来越局促,城市扩建成了每一任市长不得不面对的首要工作。 Bonn is a beautiful German town on the River Rhine. The town is full of centuries-old architecture, and the mossy facade seems to tell its longstanding history. There are Beethoven’s former homes, the Rococo-style town hall and the beautiful Romanesque Munster Cathedral. It also has an indelible mark - once the temporary capital of West Germany. After World War II, Germany recuperated, its population density increased, and the old city seemed more and more cramped. The expansion of the city became the primary task that every mayor had to face.
