• Andorra la Vella 安道尔城

    August 6 in Andorra ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    Rumour has it that is the Monument to Reading (Monumento a la Lectura), also commonly known as the Climbing Tower. Originally a pure sculpture, its slender shape was meant to symbolize a scroll/book or an obelisk. Later, artificial climbing holds (the protruding colored dots and recesses seen in the photo) were specifically added to the tower, transforming it into an outdoor public climbing facility that is highly popular among extreme sports enthusiasts.
    This country is small but with beautiful scenery everywhere.

    据说这是安道尔城(Andorra la Vella)的阅读纪念碑(Monumento a la Lectura),大家也常叫它攀岩塔。原本是件纯雕塑作品,细长的造型寓意书卷或方尖碑。后来塔身上被专门加装了人工攀岩点(照片里那些突出的彩色小点和凹槽),变成了一个深受极限爱好者喜欢的户外公共攀岩设施。
    这个国家很小,但处处美景。

    p.s. We sent the monument photo to DeepSeek, came back as the “Reading Tower /Climbing Tower”. Interesting, no local people I checked with knew its name.
    注:我们把高塔的照片送到深度探索,得到“阅读塔/攀岩塔”。有趣的是,当我们向当地人核实的时候,没有人知道这座塔的名字。
