Most Prominent Place on Parliament Hill
Peace Tower的点评
点评：The most important and prominent feature on Parliament Hill is the Peace Tower both in terms of its central location and its height. For Americans, it is the Capitol Dome and for the British it is Big Ben. It is a clock tower and campanile that stands 302.5 feet (92.2 meters) tall. While it dominates the legislative center today, it was not original to the building or plans. The tower was a renovation addition during the Center Block rebuild after the 1916 fire. While the original tower honored the British monarch at the time of construction, this tower would honor all of those Canadians who had served in WWI which was a highpoint of Canadian sacrifice. It is prominently portrayed and displayed throughout the country, including on Canadian currency. Currently, it and the entire Center Block are undergoing renovation construction. However, when opened, people were able to climb the tower for great views of the city. It was the tallest building in Ottawa from its completion in 1922 to 1971 with the building of the 29 story Place de Ville in downtown Ottawa. We had the chance to see it day and night and it is a special place.
翻译：在议会山上，无论是从中心位置还是高度来看，最重要且最显眼的建筑当属和平塔。对美国人而言，这是国会大厦的圆顶；对英国人来说则是大本钟。和平塔是一座钟楼兼钟塔，高度达302.5英尺（92.2米）。虽然如今它堪称立法中心的地标，但它最初并不在原有建筑或规划之中。这座塔楼是在1916年火灾后重建中央大楼时增建的。虽然最初的塔楼是为了向建造时的英国君主致敬，但这座塔楼则是为了纪念所有曾在第一次世界大战中服役的加拿大人——那场战争是加拿大人做出巨大牺牲的标志性时刻。这座塔楼的形象广泛出现在全国各地，甚至出现在加拿大货币上。目前，塔楼及整个中央大楼都正在进行翻修工程。不过在落成之初，人们可以登上塔楼，俯瞰城市的壮丽景色。从1922年建成起，直到1971年渥太华市中心出现29层高的普拉斯德维尔大楼为止，它一直是渥太华最高的建筑。我们有机会在白天和夜晚都去观赏它，那确实是一个特别的地方。
