沃土中原 03歌詞

[00:02.83]Our journey starts at the very heart of China, Beijing.
[00:07.76]China's capital is a vast metropolis, home to 15 million people.
[00:13.10]This bustling modern city seems an unlikely place for traditional beliefs and customs.
[00:23.60]But beneath the contemporary veneer, it's possible to see glimpses of a far older China.
[00:31.50]Every morning, people head to the parks around the Forbidden City, to continue a custom which is centuries old.
[00:45.12]Many Chinese keep birds as companions, specifically a type of laughing thrush from southern China.
[01:07.00]But they know that cooped up indoors, birds may become depressed.
[01:10.76]So they try to brighten their day by meeting other birds.
[01:16.22]This surprising scene in the heart of modern Beijing is a clue to China's oldest spiritual ambition, the harmonious co-existence of man and nature.
