我们现在参观的地方和(埃及)大金字塔很相似,这里埋葬着一个古代国王。但摩索拉斯王的陵墓又有所不同。多少年来令游客着迷的,是这个陵墓的美丽而非其规模。公元前377～353年,摩索拉斯王统治着小亚细亚西部的卡里亚(今属土耳其),他把都城迁到了哈利卡纳苏斯。除了他的陵墓的建设,摩索拉斯王一生没有什么令人激动的大事。这项工程大约在公元前350年(也就是摩索拉斯王去世后3年)完成。 The place we visit now is very similar to the Great Pyramid (Egypt), where an ancient king was buried. However, the tombs of King Mausoleus are different. What has fascinated tourists for many years is the beauty of this mausoleum, not its size. From 377 to 353 BC, King Mausoleus ruled Caria (now Turkey) in western Asia Minor, and he moved the capital to Khalkanasus. In addition to the construction of his mausoleum, King Mossola had no exciting events in his life. This project was completed around 350 BC (ie, 3 years after the death of King Mausoleus).
