網(wǎng)友：像新加坡、東京和首爾這樣的亞洲城市的大部分建設(shè)發(fā)生在過(guò)去六十年里，通常是在經(jīng)歷了一段戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)和大規(guī)模破壞之后。當(dāng)一個(gè)文明在經(jīng)歷世界大戰(zhàn)或重大戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)后重新建設(shè)時(shí)，他們沒(méi)有時(shí)間和閑暇去考慮文化問(wèn)題；他們首先需要滿足最基本的需求。

正文翻譯

Paul Denlinger
Most of the buildup in Asian cities like Singapore, Tokyo and Seoul has occurred over the past sixty years, and often following a period of war and massive destruction.
When a civilization is building up after a world war or major war, they do not have the time and leisure to think about culture; they need to meet their most basic needs first.

像新加坡、東京和首爾這樣的亞洲城市的大部分建設(shè)發(fā)生在過(guò)去六十年里，通常是在經(jīng)歷了一段戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)和大規(guī)模破壞之后。當(dāng)一個(gè)文明在經(jīng)歷世界大戰(zhàn)或重大戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)后重新建設(shè)時(shí)，他們沒(méi)有時(shí)間和閑暇去考慮文化問(wèn)題；他們首先需要滿足最基本的需求。

Only after 2 - 3 generations of building and trade can people then begin to think about culture because their most basic needs of food and shelter have already been met.
The exception to this rule is in China, where the city buildup was done following a long period of neglect in the 80s and 90s, and the Chinese government had a policy of “build first” and urbanization, which was based on changing China from a majority rural to a majority urban society.

只有經(jīng)過(guò)兩到三代的建設(shè)和貿(mào)易，人們才會(huì)開(kāi)始關(guān)注文化，因?yàn)樗麄兊淖罨拘枨蟆澄锖妥》恳呀?jīng)得到滿足。這個(gè)規(guī)則的例外是中國(guó)，在80年代和90年代經(jīng)歷了長(zhǎng)期的忽視后，中國(guó)的城市建設(shè)是在政府實(shí)施“先建設(shè)”政策和城市化的背景下進(jìn)行的，這一政策旨在將中國(guó)從以農(nóng)村為主的社會(huì)轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)橐猿鞘袨橹鞯纳鐣?huì)。

tbh Europeans are too focused on their past. I wonder when people wills top caring about how beautiful france or germany or the UK is because of their old architecture. Imo i prefer the futuristic look of TOkyo, seoul, China becase its forward looking and new.
Most europeans will disagree though and hate skyscrapers and new stuff.

說(shuō)實(shí)話，歐洲人過(guò)于關(guān)注他們的過(guò)去。我想知道人們什么時(shí)候會(huì)停止關(guān)心法國(guó)、德國(guó)或英國(guó)因其古老建筑而美麗的事物。在我看來(lái)，我更喜歡東京、首爾和中國(guó)的未來(lái)主義風(fēng)格，因?yàn)樗鼈兙哂星罢靶院同F(xiàn)代感。不過(guò)，大多數(shù)歐洲人會(huì)不同意，并且討厭摩天大樓和新事物。

Yevgeniy Leto
For (European) nations with long history and a rich cultural heritage, all that is needed is to preserve the historical sites. Modern Beijing is built like Singapore, but nobody can say that Beijing is dull or soulless.
US cities are dull too for the same reason.

對(duì)于擁有悠久歷史和豐富文化遺產(chǎn)的歐洲國(guó)家來(lái)說(shuō)，所需要的只是保護(hù)好歷史遺址。現(xiàn)代北京的建設(shè)方式類似于新加坡，但沒(méi)有人會(huì)說(shuō)北京是沉悶或缺乏靈魂的。美國(guó)城市也因?yàn)橄嗤脑蚨@得沉悶。

Josephine Stefani
I think it is true to say that on the whole, Asian cities are more polluted than European cities.
This is generally due to higher population density in Asian cities, coupled with poorer environmental planning and sanitation issues (which is pertinent to South Asian and some Southeast Asian cities). Many Asian cities also have traffic issues and poor or unreliable systems of public transport, so the increased congestion decreases air quality.

我認(rèn)為總體來(lái)說(shuō)，亞洲城市的污染程度確實(shí)高于歐洲城市。這通常是由于亞洲城市的人口密度較高，再加上環(huán)境規(guī)劃較差和衛(wèi)生問(wèn)題（這對(duì)于南亞和一些東南亞城市尤為明顯）。許多亞洲城市還有交通問(wèn)題和不可靠的公共交通系統(tǒng)，因此交通擁堵會(huì)降低空氣質(zhì)量。

But dull and cultureless?
I think I know what you're trying to get at. You look at cities like Prague and Vienna that are like living, breathing museums, with beautiful marble or Gothic architecture and dozens of regal theatres and buildings and palaces and think that just because you won't find them elsewhere in Asia, those cities are necessarily ‘dull’ and ‘cultureless’.

但是，乏味和沒(méi)有文化嗎？
我想我明白你的意思。你看像布拉格和維也納這樣的城市，它們就像活生生的博物館，擁有美麗的大理石或哥特式建筑，還有眾多華麗的劇院、建筑和宮殿。你覺(jué)得僅僅因?yàn)檫@些地方在亞洲找不到，所以這些城市就一定是“乏味”和“沒(méi)有文化”的。

I would perhaps like to remind you that plenty of industrial cities in England, Wales, Germany and other parts of Europe are probably more or as ‘dull’ and ‘cultureless’ than their Asian counterparts.
I think there is a lot of beauty in Asian cities. They don't take the form of Roman pillars or resplendent marble arches, but they're there if you know what to look for. This, for instance, was taken in Hanoi, Vietnam (lifted off a friend’s public Instagram account: an.lok):

我想提醒你，很多英國(guó)、威爾士、德國(guó)以及歐洲其他地方的工業(yè)城市可能比它們的亞洲對(duì)手更“乏味”和“沒(méi)有文化”。我認(rèn)為亞洲城市中有很多美麗的地方。它們的形式可能不像羅馬柱或華麗的大理石拱門，但如果你知道怎么去尋找，它們的美麗依然存在。例如，這張照片是在越南河內(nèi)拍攝的（來(lái)自朋友的公開(kāi)Instagram賬戶：an.lok）：

You could focus on the poverty, the ugly cables, the pollution, dirt… but when I looked at this photo, the first thing I thought of was that I’ve never seen a more beautiful city. And such a beautiful city cannot possibly be dull.

你可以關(guān)注貧困、丑陋的電纜、污染、骯臟……但當(dāng)我看到這張照片時(shí)，我想到的第一件事就是我從未見(jiàn)過(guò)如此美麗的城市。如此美麗的城市不可能是乏味的。

Now let's move on to culture. I don't think that culture only takes the form of art galleries with stately 19th century portraits and museums and palaces, but you will find plenty of that scattered all over East Asia, if that's what you want. If you want ancient history, head to xi’an and look at the Terracotta Army. Head to Asakusa, where people freely walk around in kimonos and yukatas, shop in the oldest shopping street in Tokyo, and pray at a humongous temple that dates all the way back to 645 AD. I lived a stone’s throw away from Asakusa last year – let me tell you, that district alone makes most of Europe look pretty ‘cultureless’.

現(xiàn)在讓我們來(lái)談?wù)勎幕?。我認(rèn)為文化并不僅僅是擁有威嚴(yán)的19世紀(jì)肖像畫的藝術(shù)畫廊、博物館和宮殿，但如果你想要這樣的東西，東亞各地到處都有。如果你想要古老的歷史，可以去西安看看兵馬俑。去淺草，在那里人們穿著和服和浴衣自由行走，在東京最古老的購(gòu)物街購(gòu)物，并在一個(gè)可以追溯到公元645年的巨大寺廟里祈禱。去年我就住在離淺草很近的地方——讓我告訴你，單單這個(gè)區(qū)域就讓歐洲的大部分地方顯得相當(dāng)“沒(méi)有文化”。

Culture also takes the form of underground bars and contemporary indie art galleries and trendy bands – look at places like Bandung for your fill of jazz clubs and indie rock bands. There's always something going on in that place.
Culture also takes the form of festivals – there are countless festivals (look for something-matsuri) going on in every corner of Japan. Many of these are based on centuries old traditions, local to the prefecture or city. Then there's Lunar New Year, Diwali, Idul Fitri, Nowruz … if there's one thing Asian cities know how to do, it's being festive and going all out.

文化還可以表現(xiàn)為地下酒吧、當(dāng)代獨(dú)立藝術(shù)畫廊和時(shí)尚樂(lè)隊(duì)——比如，去萬(wàn)隆看看那里的爵士樂(lè)俱樂(lè)部和獨(dú)立搖滾樂(lè)隊(duì)，總有些新鮮的東西在發(fā)生。
文化也可以表現(xiàn)為各種節(jié)日——日本的每個(gè)角落都有數(shù)不清的節(jié)日（尋找某某祭）。許多節(jié)日基于數(shù)百年的傳統(tǒng)，都是地方性或城市性的。然后還有農(nóng)歷新年、排燈節(jié)、開(kāi)齋節(jié)、諾魯孜節(jié)……如果有一樣?xùn)|西是亞洲城市特別擅長(zhǎng)的，那就是慶祝節(jié)日和全力以赴地狂歡。

Culture can also be lixed to spirituality. Think of all those shrines dotting Tokyo streets and temples in Phnom Penh. I know a person currently living in an ancient spiritual city called Haridwar – if that city isn't buzzing with pure, unadulterated culture, I don't know what is.

文化也可以與精神信仰相關(guān)聯(lián)。想想東京街頭那些散布的小神社和金邊的寺廟。我認(rèn)識(shí)一個(gè)人目前居住在一個(gè)叫哈里德瓦爾的古老精神城市——如果那個(gè)城市不是充滿了純粹的、不摻雜的文化，那我就不知道什么是了。

Culture can take the form of food. I don't think I need to say this, but due to its sheer size and variety, the food cultures of Asia are a zillion times more diverse than Europe. Go on a gastronomic tour, starting from Turkey, making your way through the Caucasus all the way to Iran; pass through Central Asia and indulge in South Asian food, then head east to East Asia, finally crawling down to Southeast Asia. You probably need a lifetime to get through it all. Asian cities won't disappoint on this front, I promise you that.

文化還可以表現(xiàn)為食物。我想我不需要多說(shuō)，但由于其龐大的規(guī)模和多樣性，亞洲的飲食文化比歐洲豐富得多。從土耳其開(kāi)始進(jìn)行一次美食之旅，穿越高加索，一直到伊朗；經(jīng)過(guò)中亞，沉醉于南亞美食，然后向東走向東亞，最后一直到東南亞。你可能需要一生的時(shí)間才能體驗(yàn)全部。亞洲城市在這方面不會(huì)讓你失望，我向你保證。

This things sound like eurocentric pov when only european culture are "cultural things" and reason why Europe has "cultural and historical " buildings are bc in the past when Europe was getting rich they rebuild and reconstructed or even build new ones too -now old buildings. And since it was in the past let say 18th-19th they call it historical. Nowadays a lot asian countries are building or rebuilding ,reconstructed their historical sites too. And it depends on taste of the person by architeture some like europen with marble and some asian style .

這些話聽(tīng)起來(lái)像是歐洲中心主義的觀點(diǎn)，認(rèn)為只有歐洲文化才算是“文化事物”。而歐洲之所以有“文化和歷史”建筑，是因?yàn)樵谶^(guò)去，當(dāng)歐洲變得富裕時(shí)，他們重建和修復(fù)了許多建筑，甚至新建了很多，現(xiàn)在這些建筑被稱為歷史建筑。既然這是過(guò)去的事情，比如18世紀(jì)到19世紀(jì)，這些建筑就被稱為歷史建筑。如今，許多亞洲國(guó)家也在建設(shè)或重建他們的歷史遺址。建筑風(fēng)格的喜好因人而異，有些人喜歡歐洲風(fēng)格的大理石，有些人則喜歡亞洲風(fēng)格。

Anil Bhat
I think this is a troll question, but I will take it anyway. Asia is the largest continent, so no one can say that most Asian cities are dull, polluted and cultureless compared to most European cities. European cities are nice, but I can say quite a few choice words about how their wealth was generated by colonizing Asian and African countries two to three centuries ago. I won’t go there.
Most Asian cities are going through growth just like Western cities did a century or two ago.
London - River Thames was in a really bad shape 150 years ago.

我覺(jué)得這個(gè)問(wèn)題可能是故意挑釁的，但我還是回答一下。亞洲是最大的大陸，所以沒(méi)人可以說(shuō)大多數(shù)亞洲城市比大多數(shù)歐洲城市更沉悶、污染和無(wú)文化。歐洲城市很美，但我可以對(duì)他們的財(cái)富來(lái)源說(shuō)一些不太好聽(tīng)的話，因?yàn)檫@些財(cái)富是通過(guò)殖民亞洲和非洲國(guó)家兩到三個(gè)世紀(jì)前獲得的。我不打算深入探討。大多數(shù)亞洲城市正經(jīng)歷著與西方城市一個(gè)或兩個(gè)世紀(jì)前相似的增長(zhǎng)過(guò)程。倫敦——泰晤士河150年前的狀況非常糟糕。

It looks much nicer today.
The same could be said of the Chicago River and Hudson River (New York City). Back then, most of the large cities in the West had slums. As Western countries went through economic growth due to industrialization, they cleaned up their cities, and built parks, museums and art galleries. It’s not like any of their cities do not have bad parts today. They still do, but the unsavory parts are either confined to small areas or hidden from the tourists.

今天的景象好多了。
芝加哥河和哈德遜河（紐約市）也是如此。那時(shí)候，大多數(shù)西方大城市都有貧民窟。隨著西方國(guó)家因工業(yè)化經(jīng)歷經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)，他們清理了城市，建設(shè)了公園、博物館和藝術(shù)畫廊。不過(guò)，這些城市今天仍然有不太好的地方。雖然如此，那些不太好的地方要么局限在小區(qū)域，要么被隱藏在游客視線之外。

Regardless of the fact that Asian cities are undergoing rapid growth, I think it is totally wrong to dismiss them as dull and cultureless. Far from being cultureless and dull, there is so much to experience in Asian cities. In developed Asian countries such as Japan, Singapore and Malaysia, you’ve got to look beyond the tall and shiny buildings. In the developing countries, you will find lively neighborhoods well beyond bed time. Try pointing me to a more colorful country than India. Are you saying that Central Asian cities, once upon a time on the Silk Road, lack culture and look dull?
I could post hundreds of pictures from Asian cities and talk about their cultural significance, but then it would take me days to post this answer.

盡管亞洲城市正在經(jīng)歷快速增長(zhǎng)，但我認(rèn)為完全將它們視為沉悶和缺乏文化是完全錯(cuò)誤的。遠(yuǎn)非缺乏文化和沉悶，亞洲城市有著豐富的體驗(yàn)。在日本、新加坡和馬來(lái)西亞等發(fā)達(dá)亞洲國(guó)家，你需要超越那些高大而閃亮的建筑。在發(fā)展中國(guó)家，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)充滿活力的社區(qū)，遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過(guò)了就寢時(shí)間。試問(wèn)哪個(gè)國(guó)家比印度更為多彩？難道你認(rèn)為曾經(jīng)在絲綢之路上的中亞城市缺乏文化，顯得沉悶嗎？
我可以發(fā)布數(shù)百?gòu)垇喼蕹鞘械恼掌?，并談?wù)撍鼈兊奈幕饬x，但那樣的話我需要幾天時(shí)間來(lái)完成這個(gè)回答。

Diaab Ibn Nahshid
Why is it that most Asian cities are so polluted compared to most European cities?
So this part of the question seems reasonable.
The question of why Asia is more polluted than Europe has already been answered in previous answers. Asia contains more than 60% of the world's population whereas Europe contains around 10%. But in fact, the average Western European pollutes the earth more than the average Asian. So maybe you should look pollution contribution to the earth per capita and question why Western Europeans and especially us Americans contribute more the destruction of the Earth than any other region.

為什么大多數(shù)亞洲城市比大多數(shù)歐洲城市更污染呢？
這個(gè)問(wèn)題的部分確實(shí)是合理的。關(guān)于為什么亞洲比歐洲更污染的原因，之前的回答中已經(jīng)提到過(guò)。亞洲擁有超過(guò)60%的世界人口，而歐洲大約占10%。但實(shí)際上，平均而言，西歐人的污染程度要高于平均亞洲人。所以，也許你應(yīng)該關(guān)注每人對(duì)地球污染的貢獻(xiàn)，質(zhì)疑為什么西歐人，特別是我們美國(guó)人，對(duì)地球的破壞貢獻(xiàn)最大。

To answer your question, yes Asian cities are on average more polluted than European cities (especially in China) due to heavy industrialization, rapid growth, and the burning of fossil fuels such as coal. But Asia, East Asian countries especially, are becoming world leaders in clean energy sources. Even the Middle East is investing in solar power.
Let's move to the next part. Why is it that most Asian cities are so dull and cultureless when compared to most European cities? I can't believe someone actually asked this question. Northern and Western Europe are the definition of dull and cultureless (I don't mean any offense).

為了回答你的問(wèn)題，是的，亞洲城市的污染水平平均確實(shí)高于歐洲城市（尤其是在中國(guó)），這主要是由于重工業(yè)、快速增長(zhǎng)以及燃燒煤炭等化石燃料所致。然而，亞洲，特別是東亞國(guó)家，正在成為清潔能源的全球領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者。甚至中東地區(qū)也在投資太陽(yáng)能。
接下來(lái)我們來(lái)討論另一個(gè)問(wèn)題。為什么大多數(shù)亞洲城市相比大多數(shù)歐洲城市顯得如此沉悶和缺乏文化？我無(wú)法相信竟然有人提出這個(gè)問(wèn)題。北歐和西歐的城市就是沉悶和缺乏文化的典范（我并不是有意冒犯）。

We can just start with history. Would you rather read about 2,000 years of French history or 2,000 years of Cambodian history? What in European history is so interesting and exciting, I mean besides them going out and exploring other lands containing interesting cultures and civilizations. The Renaissance? Where did all the scientists and artists who started the Renaissance come from? After, the Ottomans conquered Constantinople (Istanbul), a lot of scholars and artisans left and went west. Furthermore, ideas also came through Islamic Spain and through Mediterranean trade with the Mid East and North Africa. That is not to mention the Silk Road.

我們可以從歷史開(kāi)始談起。你更愿意閱讀2000年的法國(guó)歷史還是2000年的柬埔寨歷史？歐洲歷史中有什么是如此有趣和令人興奮的？除了他們出去探索其他擁有有趣文化和文明的土地之外。文藝復(fù)興呢？文藝復(fù)興的科學(xué)家和藝術(shù)家們來(lái)自哪里？在奧斯曼帝國(guó)征服君士坦丁堡（伊斯坦布爾）之后，許多學(xué)者和工匠向西遷移。此外，思想也通過(guò)伊斯蘭西班牙以及地中海與中東和北非的貿(mào)易傳播過(guò)來(lái)。這還不包括絲綢之路。

Do you wonder why the British have so many museums? I mean, besides the fact that they colonized 1/4 of the world (I wonder why). They had to import “interesting” things from other places to be interesting. Have you ever seen a museum with British or German artifacts from thousands of years ago. Please show me the lix if you have one.

你是否想過(guò)為什么英國(guó)有這么多博物館？除了他們殖民了四分之一的世界（我不知道為什么），他們必須從其他地方引進(jìn)“有趣”的東西來(lái)讓自己變得有趣。你見(jiàn)過(guò)收藏有數(shù)千年歷史的英國(guó)或德國(guó)文物的博物館嗎？如果有，請(qǐng)給我發(fā)鏈接。

What is British or German or even French food. The only Northern European food I know is Ginger Thins and it sucks if that is all they have. I mean, honestly I've never studied Northern European cuisine, so please educate me if you know. Maybe it'll compare with the thousands of Indian dishes. You know, I've never been to a Romanian restaurant, but there are thousands of Chinese and Indian restaurants in the US. Where I live now in Egypt, there are Chinese, Indian, Sudanese, Ethiopian, Japanese, and countless other restaurants besides Egyptian. I have never seen a Swiss one though.

那英國(guó)、德國(guó)甚至法國(guó)的食物是什么？我所知道的北歐食物只有姜餅薄餅，如果這就是他們所有的食物，那真是糟糕。我確實(shí)沒(méi)有研究過(guò)北歐菜肴，如果你知道的話，請(qǐng)告訴我。也許它能與成千上萬(wàn)的印度菜肴相比。我從未去過(guò)羅馬尼亞餐館，但在美國(guó)有成千上萬(wàn)的中國(guó)和印度餐館。我現(xiàn)在住在埃及，這里除了埃及餐館外，還有中國(guó)、印度、蘇丹、埃塞俄比亞、日本以及無(wú)數(shù)其他國(guó)家的餐館。我還沒(méi)有見(jiàn)過(guò)瑞士餐館。

What actually makes Eastern Europe so interesting, I mean besides the structures built during Ottoman times. Really no offense, I am sure they have really nice people. Who built those nice statues and grand buildings in Western Europe? They went around the world gathering (more like plundering) the metals and resources they have now to build nice buildings. They went around the world enslaving people to build their nice civilizations for them. Remember that next time you go to London or Paris.

實(shí)際上，東歐有什么有趣的地方？除了奧斯曼時(shí)期建造的那些建筑之外，東歐的魅力是什么？我并不是冒犯的意思，我相信那里的人非常友好。西歐那些宏偉的雕像和建筑是誰(shuí)建造的？他們通過(guò)環(huán)游世界（更像是掠奪）來(lái)獲得現(xiàn)在用來(lái)建造漂亮建筑的金屬和資源。他們還通過(guò)奴役人們來(lái)為他們建立這些美麗的文明。下次你去倫敦或巴黎時(shí)，請(qǐng)記住這一點(diǎn)。

I wouldn't say they are cultureless, but in my eyes they often lack organisation and respect for old architecture (the latter applies especially to Chinese cities). Architecture-wise Asian cities tend to fall behind its European counterparts. Of course, you can find amazing spots as well, but they tend to be limited to a temple or park. I was also surprised when I saw no castles, not too many old streets etc. However, I think that it derives from the fact that when European cities were being constructed in the shape we know them today (after 15th century and later) Asia slowly stopped being so advanced compared to Europe. However, I would not say that all of European cities developed only due to colonialism. In Eastern European states that were not colonial or not too much (to complicated to explain) you find many awesome old towns and castles. Talking about Asia, traditional stuff was better preserved in richer states like Japan. China lost loads of it due to poverty and Cultural Revolution. So, as usual: money talks.

我不會(huì)說(shuō)他們沒(méi)有文化，但在我看來(lái)，他們往往缺乏組織性和對(duì)老建筑的尊重（尤其是中國(guó)城市）。在建筑方面，亞洲城市往往落后于歐洲的同行。當(dāng)然，你也可以找到令人驚嘆的地方，但它們通常限于寺廟或公園。我也很驚訝地發(fā)現(xiàn)沒(méi)有城堡，也沒(méi)有太多老街等。然而，我認(rèn)為這源于歐洲城市在我們今天所熟知的形態(tài)中建造時(shí)（15世紀(jì)以后），而亞洲在那時(shí)逐漸變得相對(duì)不那么先進(jìn)。然而，我并不認(rèn)為所有歐洲城市的發(fā)展都僅僅是由于殖民主義。在那些沒(méi)有進(jìn)行殖民或者殖民程度不大的東歐國(guó)家，你可以找到許多令人驚嘆的古鎮(zhèn)和城堡。談到亞洲，傳統(tǒng)文化在像日本這樣的富裕國(guó)家得到了更好的保存。中國(guó)由于貧困和文化大革命失去了大量的傳統(tǒng)文化。所以，像往常一樣：錢能說(shuō)話。

Lanla Colan
Europe didn’t look anything like it does today or for much of history for that matter.
The contemporary neo-classical buildings and architectures sprung up across Europe are neither ancient or traditional. These contemporary grand cities were build to show off their wealth and powers from pillaging and exploiting the world. The Greek copied classical architectures from Egypt and the Middle East and eventually it spread and influences the barbarian people of Europe.
Europa was a Semitic Phoenician princess from the Middle East whom Europe is named after.

歐洲的面貌與今天或者歷史上的大部分時(shí)間都完全不同?，F(xiàn)代的新古典主義建筑和建筑風(fēng)格在歐洲的出現(xiàn)既不古老也不傳統(tǒng)。這些宏偉的城市是為了展示他們通過(guò)掠奪和剝削世界而獲得的財(cái)富和權(quán)力而建造的。希臘人從埃及和中東模仿了古典建筑，最終這些影響傳遍了歐洲的蠻族。歐洲這個(gè)名字來(lái)源于一位來(lái)自中東的閃米特腓尼基公主。

Asian cities are cultureless compared to European cities?
Seriously?
I mean, we are comparing Asia, the birthplace of civilisation with Europe!
Most of these “cultured” European cities you talk of came about like 300 years ago… my ancestral home has probably lasted longer than that.
Compare that with cities like, say, xian, Baghdad, Jerusalem, Benares, etc, and you’d think European cities outside of Greece and Italy have no history whatsoever.
If I were to pick ONE continent for cultured cities, that would be Asia.

亞洲城市相比于歐洲城市沒(méi)有文化？這是真的嗎？我說(shuō)的是，我們?cè)诒容^的是文明的發(fā)源地亞洲和歐洲！你提到的那些“有文化”的歐洲城市，大多數(shù)在大約300年前才出現(xiàn)……而我的祖籍可能已經(jīng)存在了更長(zhǎng)時(shí)間。與像西安、巴格達(dá)、耶路撒冷、瓦拉納西等城市相比，你會(huì)覺(jué)得希臘和意大利以外的歐洲城市幾乎沒(méi)有歷史。如果讓我選擇一個(gè)文化豐富的大陸，那一定是亞洲。

Farhan Hussain
Polluted is the only accurate statement of your question however “cultureless”? Usually the stereotype is that Europeans do not have culture, most of the buildings in Europe pretty much look similar; this view is shared by Indian, Chinese and Arab families.
Europe is richer yes, more beautiful yes, more advanced yes. But in terms of culture. Asia is the epitome of culture, no matter how poor the countries are, every region from South, to South East, Western and Eastern Asia have something unique and you can immediately recognise culture. There is no continent weather African, European, Latin American that can beat Asia when it comes to history and culture.
I simply fail to see how countries like Norway, Sweden, Germany has more culture then China, Iran, India, Turkey and Japan.

“污染”是你問(wèn)題中唯一準(zhǔn)確的說(shuō)法，但“沒(méi)有文化”這詞匯通常是不正確的。通常的刻板印象是歐洲人沒(méi)有文化，歐洲的大多數(shù)建筑看起來(lái)幾乎相似；這一觀點(diǎn)在印度、中國(guó)和阿拉伯家庭中都有所共享。
歐洲確實(shí)更富裕、更美麗、更先進(jìn)，但就文化而言，亞洲才是文化的縮影。不管這些國(guó)家多么貧困，從南亞、東南亞、西亞到東亞，每個(gè)地區(qū)都有獨(dú)特的文化，你可以立刻識(shí)別出文化。沒(méi)有哪個(gè)大陸，無(wú)論是非洲、歐洲還是拉丁美洲，可以在歷史和文化方面超越亞洲。
我實(shí)在無(wú)法理解像挪威、瑞典、德國(guó)的文化比中國(guó)、伊朗、印度、土耳其和日本更豐富的說(shuō)法。

為什么大多數(shù)亞洲城市相比于許多歐洲城市顯得沉悶、污染嚴(yán)重且缺乏文化？
