[37:03.96]北京观光客自然都会游览 故宫和长城,这是因为故 宫和长城是举世闻名的旅 游景点.;
[37:15.78]而今天我却想向各位推荐 北京第三大旅游场所,北 京世界公园.;
[37:25.21]北京世界公园于90年代初 在北京兴建,是北京的新 景点之一.;

[38:05.65]占地面积46.7公顷的世界 公园分为17处风景区,;
[38:13.07]收集了亚洲、非洲、 欧洲、南北美洲以及大洋 洲的主要名胜景点。;
[38:22.40]游客可以在这里观赏法国 的凯旋门和埃菲尔铁塔、 英国伦敦的塔桥、;

[39:54.39]北京世界公园自开放以来 已吸引了许多海内游客前 来观赏美景。;

[44:05.09]发射出一圈圈色彩斑谰的 光环，所以又被人们叫做 “五花海”;
