LIFE


New York might have Fifth Avenue. And, Beverly Hills may have Rodeo Drive. But, the Washington region is home to some of the best shopping in the country. Gucci, Tiffanys, Prada and Hermes – they are all here. Not to mention hundreds of other stores and shops that will keep even the most active shopper busy. In Washington, stores like Neiman Marcus, Burberry and Bloomingdales are on the scene. Georgetown hosts shops from Ralph Lauren to Gap to Restoration Hardware to Coach to BCBG. It is easy to spend the day walking down Connecticut Avenue or M Street to catch the hottest styles and trends on offer. Tyson’s Corner, Virginia, is home to one of the largest shopping complexes in the country. Bally, Bottega Veneta, Cartier, Chanel, Emporio Armani, Kate Spade and Louis Vuitton are all found in one easily accessed center. Nearby is another massive shopping mall holding stores such as Banana Republic, Diesel, Lego and Steinway Piano. And, we can’t forget suburban Maryland. In Chevy Chase, at the Shops at Wisconsin Place, MAC, Cole Han and Bloomingdales draw a multitude of shoppers. Chevy Chase Pavilion is a small yet upscale shopping mall. Stores include Pottery Barn, J Crew, Ann Taylor Loft, Talbots, World Market, Hold Everything and more. And, across the street, Tiffanys, Saks Fifth Avenue and Saks Jandel are special stores to enjoy a shopping spree.

“TO THE RULER, THE PEOPLE ARE HEAVEN; TO THE PEOPLE, FOOD IS HEAVEN.” CHINESE PROVERB 对统治者,人民是天堂;来的人,食物是天堂

Calling all Foodies! Washington’s culinary scene has exploded. It is now home to more Michelin Star chefs then at any other time. The days of restrictive dining choices left Washington decades ago. Now, choosing a five-star restaurant that offers amazing food is easy and convenient. And, many restaurants deliver to your home. While chefs such as Wolfgang Puck and Jose Andreas have made Washington a home, the city hosts a wide diversity of culinary choices. From luxury dining to burgers on the go – you can find whatever your heart and your stomach desires in DC.

多的米其林星级厨师。几十年前华盛顿就餐选择的受限性已经一去不返。现在,选择一家提供美味食物 的五星级餐馆非常简单、方便。并且,很多餐馆提供送餐上门的服务。 当像沃尔夫冈·普克(Wolfgang Puck)和约瑟·安德里亚斯(Jose Andreas )这样的大厨在华盛顿安家时, 这座城市便拥有了广泛而多样的烹饪选择。从奢华餐饮到速食汉堡——您可以在华盛顿地区找到任何既 符合您心意又对您胃口的食物。 食品杂货购买在华盛顿地区也是轻而易举的事。从大型民族食品商店如Great Wall (长城),到稍小些 的有机商店如Yes! Organic Market(对!有机市场)——您所需要的配料总能在附近找到。

Grocery shopping is also a breeze in the Washington area. From large, ethnic food stores, such as Great Wall to smaller organic shops such as Yes!

WELLNESS


Wellness is something in which we are all concerned. The Washington, DC area provides myriad traditional Chinese sources for medicine and exercise. Doctors of Traditional Chinese Medicine are found throughout the region. Patients can visit doctors in places such as the East West Wellness Center in Gaithersburg, MD, the City Acupuncture Club in Dupont Circle, Washington, DC and the Glory Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine Center in Merrifield, VA. The Washington area is home to some of the most beautiful parks and lakes in the country, perfect places to practice morning tai chi. If, however, someone practicing prefers a group setting or one that is indoors, the metro area does not disappoint. Spread throughout Montgomery County, MD, Washington DC and Northern Virginia are countless groups that daily meet to practice. Essence Tai Chi has locations throughout Montgomery County. The Tai Chi Chuan Center, based in Northern Virginia, also has centers spread throughout the city of Washington and Northern Virginia. These are only two centers devoted to Tai Chi – countless more are found across the region.

健康是我们大家都很关心的事情。在华盛顿地区有无数来自中国的传统医学和锻 炼资源。 在这里到处都可以找到传统中医医师。患者可以在马里兰州盖瑟斯堡东西方健康 中心(East West Wellness Center )、华盛顿特区杜邦环岛的市针灸俱乐部(City Acupuncture Club),以及弗吉尼亚州梅里菲尔德的荣耀针灸与东方医学中心(Glory Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine Center)就医。 华盛顿地区拥有一些美国最美丽的公园和湖泊,是早晨练太极的 理想场所。不过,如果有人喜欢组队练习或在室内练习,那 么,都会区绝不会让您失望。在马里兰州蒙哥马利县、华 盛顿特区和北弗吉尼亚地区,每天都有无数团体聚集在 这里练习太极。简式太极的练习场所在整个蒙哥马 利郡随处可见。总部设于北弗吉尼亚地区 的太极拳也在华盛顿市区和北弗吉 尼亚各地设有多个分中心。这只 是两个专注于太极拳的练习中 心——在该地区还有无数类 似场所。

And, Bethesda, Maryland placed 1st in the Forbes list of America’s most educated small towns. Bethesda also placed first on CNNMoney.com’s list of top-earning American towns in 2012. One of the most important decisions that parents make is the decision on what school is best for the education of their children. Washington, DC has a surplus of fine learning institutions, whether they be private or public in nature. According to US News and World report’s ranking of the top 150 high schools in the country, 10 are located right in the Washington, DC area, which is not a surprise, considering some of the nation’s best universities are also located nearby. From Georgetown University to Johns Hopkins, and the University of Virginia to George Washington University, the Washington, DC area offers some of the very best education opportunities in the country.

LONG GONE ARE THE DAYS OF WASHINGTON, DC AS THE MODEL OF MONOTONOUS LIVING. THE CITY IS ALIVE WITH A CULTURE THAT IS BECOMING WORLD-RENOWNED. Long gone are the days of Washington, DC as the model of monotonous living. The city is alive with a culture that is becoming world-renowned. It is enjoyed by all residents, both young and old. Local theaters such as Source and venerable theaters such as The Kennedy Center host nightly performances that pack audiences. The Fringe Festival, held every summer, draws in thousands of spectators. While the world-renowned Shakespeare Company performs its annual Free-For-All each August. But, it isn’t just theater that draws the crowds. Music choices are abundant too. Top 40 pop artists entertain at the Verizon Center, the classical notes of the National Symphony Orchestra inspire at the Kennedy Center and smoky jazz singers are found at clubs throughout the city.

Art rages on the cultural scene as well. Of course, Washington is home to some of the best museums and galleries in the world. These museums host both exhibitions, special events and lectures that draw every age of people. But, it is also home to a great number of small private galleries, such as Gallery Plan B, and small museums with amazing collections such as The Phillips Collection. For those more sports minded, the Washington area is home to five professional sports teams. It is impossible to ever be bored. The Nationals (baseball), Redskins (football), Capitals (hockey), Wizards (basketball) and United (soccer) all have legions of Washingtonians supporting their teams. And, the festivals…..every year, Adam’s Morgan Day has thousands of attendees wandering around the neighborhood enjoying good food and great music. Chinese New Year finds throngs of spectators crowding the streets watching dragon dances. And, the Fourth of July finds Washington hosting millions of people on the National Mall. Part of Washington’s charm is its status as an international, cosmopolitan city. The area has long been a magnet for people from other countries, but never more so than today. More than 1 in 5 residents of the metropolitan area were born outside the US. 30% of Montgomery County, MD and 29% of Fairfax County, VA residents are foreign-born. Many embassies host events for the public and many Washingtonians respond. Washingtonians enjoy everything from theater to restaurants, from festivals to international events. The culture of the city is definitely one to enjoy.

华盛顿地区的华人社区很强大、有活力和联系紧密。社区中的成员从华盛顿特区延伸到蒙哥马利郡,从 马里兰州到北弗吉尼亚。他们在美国的首都地区享受着他们的文化传统。无论是寻找一款自己喜爱的 茶、送小孩去上中文教育讲习班或学校,还是购买日报,对于许多华人来说,华盛顿地区的生活都是非 常便捷的。

Montgomery County, Maryland, which borders Washington, DC, is home to many Chinese stores, organizations and schools. Here, shops such as World Journal Bookstore stock newspapers, magazines, books, dictionaries, maobi and paper used for calligraphy, while, The Social Tea House and Ten Ren offer staple and exotic green and white teas. Nearby is the Great Wall grocery store that sells both Chinese specialty and common ingredients used in cooking. Terrific Chinese restaurants, such as A&J on Rockville Pike, are found throughout the county – both specializing in traditional-style Chinese cooking and wonderful treats such as dim sum.

Here, restaurants such as A&J (in Annandale), China Garden (in Rosslyn), and Hong Kong Pearl (at Seven Corner) offer some of the best Chinese cuisine in the region. The Washington region serves as home to a multitude of Chinese organizations and cultural institutions. Annually, major Chinese celebrations such as Autumn Festival, Spring Festival and the Dragon Boat races are held throughout the region.

FOR¤IGN INVESTMENT DC, Open for Business

by John Eric | Vice President of TTR | Sotheby’s International Realty

Washington Harbour

When the national housing market spiraled downward during the recession, DC’s market held firm and then quickly resumed its growth pattern. The Washington area is considered safe not only for Americans but for international investors as well. While currencies shift and companies go bankrupt, the real estate market in the American capital remains the safest investment to many global financiers.

当全国房产市场在萧条期间大幅下挫时,华盛顿市场保持坚挺,且很快恢复了其增长模式。华盛顿区被 认为不仅对美国人,而且对国际投资者来说很安全。在货币汇率变化和公司破产的环境下,美国首都房 地产市场对许多国际投资者来说仍是最安全的投资。

Chinese investors have contributed to foreign investment throughout the city. At the ribbon-cutting for the new Marriott Marquis hotel, Mayor of the District of Columbia, Vincent Gray, gave a nod to this faith in the Washington market by announcing that the first direct flights on Air China between D.C. and Beijing would begin that day.

中国投资者对全市的海外投资都有贡献。在全新马奎斯万豪酒店(Marriott Marquis hotel)的剪彩仪式上,哥 伦比亚特区市长Vincent Gray宣布当天将开启中国国航在华盛顿和北京间的首条直飞航线,借此认可了大 家对华盛顿市场的信心。

According to the house sales website Trulia, investors throughout Asia are snapping up US real estate. They view the U.S. real estate market as relatively cheap and the federal government as relatively stable. While Asian investors have always been interested in US real estate, the recent increase in wealth among Asian countries has made it even more common for people to buy US property. The Washington area is one of the top markets for foreign investment due to the region’s entry point to the US market, its international assets and its residential charms. The District is the only U.S. city that can claim 176 embassies and international organizations such as the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the Pan American Health Organization. Washington is in a unique position for foreign investors who seek a US presence and high return on investments due to its access to so many international entities within the city. The Washington Metropolitan area now ranks 4th in foreign investment in the US according to the Association of Foreign Investors in Real Estate. And, according to Jones Lang LaSalle, more than $2.6 billion in commercial real estate was purchased by foreign investment capital in 2013. From commercial to residential real estate, the world is recognizing both the potential and the savvy of investing in Washington area real estate.

房屋销售网站Trulia声称,全亚洲的投资者都在抢购美国房地产。他们认为美国房地产市场相对廉价,并 且联邦政府相对稳定。亚洲投资者一直以来都对美国房地产感兴趣,亚洲国家近年来的财富增加让人们 购买美国房产更为普遍。 由于华盛顿区是美国市场的切入点、还有其国际资产和居住魅力,该区是国际投资最佳市场之一。该区 是唯一拥有176家大使馆和国际组织的美国城市,世界银行、国际货币基金组织和泛美健康组织等国际组 织都坐落在该区。由于华盛顿城内有如此多国际组织,华盛顿对寻求在美国有一席之地和高投资回报的 国际投资者来说处于独特的位置。 据“房地产国际投资者协会”称,华盛顿大都会区目前在美国海外投资方面位列第四。而且Jones Lang LaSalle称,2013年超过$26亿的商业地产由境外投资资金购买。 从商业到住宅房地产,世界正在认可在华盛顿地区投资房地产的潜力和精明之处。

How real property is owned in the United States

In general, real estate in the United States is owned in as a Freehold Estate, as opposed to a Leasehold Estate or tenancy. This type of ownership may differ from what some foreign buyers are used to in their country of origin or other countries in which they have purchased property. A Freehold Estate is, basically, an ownership interest in real property that has no fixed duration of ownership. It lasts until the property is sold or otherwise transferred.

Foreign Investment Real Property Tax Act (FIRPTA)

When a non-resident alien (someone who is not a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Lawful Resident (Green Card holder)) sells real estate in the United States, the IRS requires that 10% of the sale price be withheld at settlement and paid to the IRS. These funds may be recovered by the seller, and in some instances the withholding requirement may be avoided if the IRS issues an exemption letter to the seller prior to the sale. It is best to discuss this with your tax accountant or attorney well in advance of selling your property so that proper steps may be taken within sufficient time.

在美国房地产是如何被拥有的 一般来说,美国的房地产归属于自由保有地产,而不是租赁持有地产或租屋。这种拥有方式可能不同于一 些外国买家在他们本国或其他已购买地产的国家所习惯的拥有方式。从根本上来说,自由保有地产是没有 固定所有权期限的房地产的所有权权益。这种权益会一直持续到资产被卖出或转移。 外商投资房地产税法(FIRPTA) 当一个无居留权的外国人(不是美国公民或永久合法居民(绿卡持有者))在美国出售房地产时,IRS要 求在结算时扣取出售价格的10%并支付给IRS。这些资金可能由卖家重新获得,并且在某些情况下,如果 IRS在地产出售前给卖家出具免除信,扣缴要求可以被避免。您最好在出售地产前,和您的税务会计师或 律师讨论这些,以便有充足的时间采取合适的应对措施。

IT ONLY TAKES A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME FOR A NEW RESIDENT OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA TO ENCOUNTER THE NAME PIERRE L’ENFANT.

Many Washingtonians bandy about his name as if they knew him from way back when. But, how much do we really know about Pierre L’Enfant? Pierre Charles L’Enfant was born on August 9, 1754, in Anet, Eune et Loire to an aristocratic family. L’Enfant studied at the Royal Academy of the Louvre until making his way to America at the age of 22, after being recruited by Pierre Agustin Caron de Beaumarchais to join the American army during the Revolutionary War. L’Enfant served with George Washington at Valley Forge and befriended the first President. It was George Washington that confirmed L’Enfant’s appointment as the architect of the America’s nascent capital. The architect arrived in Georgetown on March 9, 1791, and began his work from the Suter’s Fountain Inn. He drafted a plan that would be both unique and practical, utilizing undeveloped land to create a system of streets and parks meant to distinguish this capital from all others. L’Enfant’s plan featured ceremonial spaces and grand radial patterns of avenues, while highlighting the natural contours of

the land. Underneath this pattern, a traditional grid-like design would provide functionality to the city’s new citizens. Together, they created a spectacular array of architectural planning. L’Enfant designated the two most important sites of the city to be the placements of the Congress and the Executive Mansion. The “Congress House” would be erected on Jenkins Hill and the “President’s House” located on a ridge parallel to the Potomac River. From these, he specified that the avenues should radiate outwards. These grand avenues would be named after the newly created states. Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont and Virginia would be the first avenues of the new capital. On his plan, L’Enfant shaded and numbered fifteen large, open spaces. These spaces were found at the intersections of the grand avenues and would feature statues and memorials to honor citizens. Among those to be featured were McPherson Square, Farragut Square, Washington Circle, Dupont Circle, Logan Circle, Scott Circle and Pershing Park. One of the only aspects of the original plan that failed was the site of what is now the National Mall. Originally, L’Enfant had envisioned the area as a “grand avenue,” not a park. He laid out a 400 foot-wide, garden-lined avenue, that would be 1 mile long and run on an east-west axis. Pennsylvania Avenue took the place of this “grand avenue” and the National Mall filled its stead. L’Enfant’s insistence that his city design be realized as a whole

brought him into conflict with city commissioners, who wanted to direct the limited funds into the construction of federal buildings. After being relieved of his work, L’Enfant left Washington. He served as a professor of engineering at West Point from 1813-1817 and worked on small projects. On June 14, 1825, L’Enfant died nearly penniless and was buried at the Green Hill farm in Chillum, Prince George’s County, Maryland. At the instigation of Jean Jules Jusserand, a French ambassador to the United States, L’Enfant’s adopted nation recognized his contributions. In 1909, after lying in state in the Capitol rotunda, L’Enfant’s remains were re-interred at Arlington National Cemetery, on a hill overlooking the city that he had designed. Since then, many honors have been made in his name. In 1942, a Liberty Ship named the SS Pierre L’Enfant was launched. L’Enfant Plaza was dedicated in Washington in 1968. In 2003, L’Enfant’s plan for Washington was commemorated on a United States Postal Service postage stamp. The Government of the District of Columbia has commissioned a statue of L’Enfant, which is meant for the National Statuary Hall Collection in the Capitol Building. And, since 2005, the National Building Museum has held an annual “L’Enfant Lecture on City Planning and Design” to draw attention to critical issues in city. The name of Pierre L’Enfant daily rings through this city. His contributions, not only to the District of Columbia but to the United States, will be honored and remembered forever.


哥伦比亚特区的新居民,用不了多久就都会碰到皮埃尔朗方的 名字。但是,对皮埃尔·朗方本人,我们究竟知道多少呢? 1754年8月9日,皮埃尔·查尔斯·朗方出生于Eune et Loire省Anet的一 个贵族家庭。22岁时,他在革命战争期间被招募加入美国军队, 来到了美国。朗方曾与乔治·华盛顿在福吉谷一起服役,并结识了 第一任总统。正是乔治·华盛顿确认任命朗方为美国新国都的建筑 师。 1791年3月9日,建筑师到达乔治敦。他起草了一份既独特又实用 的规划,利用未开发的土地建造街道和公园系统,使国都与众不 同。朗方的规划以仪式场地和巨大径向模式的大道为特色,同时 突出了土地的自然轮廓。在这个模式中,传统的格状设计,为城 市的新公民提供功能性。他们一起创造了一系列壮观的建筑规 划。 朗方指定了城市的两个最重要的地点,为国会和行政大楼。“国 会大厦”将被竖立在詹金斯山,“总统府”则位于与波托马克河 的平行的山脊上。他指定,大道应从这些地方向外辐射。这些大 道将以新创建的州的名字命名。康涅狄格州,特拉华州,印第安 纳州,肯塔基州,路易斯安那州,马里兰州,马萨诸塞州,新罕

布什尔州,新泽西州,纽约州,宾夕法尼亚州,佐治亚州,罗得 岛,南卡罗来纳州,田纳西州,佛蒙特州和弗吉尼亚州,将成为 新首都的首批街道名称。 在他的规划中,朗方把15处大型开放式空间涂上阴影,并编号。 这些场所位于大道的交叉点,并将以雕像和纪念碑为特色,来对 公民表示敬意。这些特色场所之中有麦弗逊广场,法拉格特广 场,华盛顿环岛,杜邦环岛,洛根环岛,斯科特环岛和潘兴公 园。 从1813年至1817年,朗方曾在西点担任工程教授,并从事一些小项 目。1825年6月14日,朗方在几乎身无分文中去世,葬在马里兰州 乔治王子郡齐乐母的青山农场。 在法国驻美国大使让·朱尔斯·朱瑟朗的推动下,朗方的收养国认可 了他的贡献。 1909年,在国会大厦圆形大厅摆放后,朗方的遗体 被重新安葬在阿灵顿国家公墓,坐落于俯瞰他设计过的全城的一 座小山上。 从那时起,许多荣誉以他的名字命名。 1942年,命名为SS皮埃尔· 朗方的自由之船下水。1968年,朗方广场在华盛顿献给他。2003

年,朗方为华盛顿所做的规划被印在美国邮政服务邮票上,作为 纪念。哥伦比亚特区政府已为朗方做了雕像,收入国会大厦的国 立雕像大厅的收藏品。自2005年以来,国家建筑博物馆每年都举 行一次“朗方讲座:关于城市规划与设计”,以引起人们对城市 关键问题的关注。 每天,此城市到处都响着皮埃尔·朗方的名字。他对于不仅是哥伦 比亚特区,而且是全美国的贡献,应该受到尊重。

Washington icon, the Old Ebbitt Grill, is the city’s oldest bar and restaurant, and though it has relocated twice -- most recently to 15th Street, two blocks from the White House in 1983 -- many of the original spot’s artifacts, including taxidermy and gas lamps, made the move.

When it was completed in 1884, the Washington Monument was the tallest structure in the world. It was soon passed by the Eiffel Tower and numerous other buildings have eclipsed it since then.

On March 29, 1961, residents of Washington were given the right to vote in presidential elections.

华盛顿的地标——老爱 比特烧烤店,是这座城 市最古老的酒吧餐厅, 虽然它已搬迁两次—— 最近一次,在1983年搬 到距离白宫两条街的第 15街——但许多原来地 点的文物,包括动物标 本和煤气灯,也成功搬 迁。

当它在1884年建成时, 华盛顿纪念碑是世界上 最高的建筑。但它很 快就被埃菲尔铁塔超过 了,从那时起,许多其 他建筑也都让它黯然失 色。

1961年3月29日,华盛顿 的居民被授予总统选举 的投票权。

5 Washington, DC’s geographic center is located at 4th and L Streets, NW. 华盛顿特区的地理中心 位于第4街和L街(西 北)。

6 J Street was likely omitted from the grid because the letters I and J, in 18th century English, were largely interchangeable – having both an “I” and a “J” street would have been redundant and confusing. J街从网格中省略,可能 是因为在18世纪的英语 中,字母I和J在很大程度 上是可以互换的——同 时具有“I”街和“J” 街,会造成重复和混 乱。

7 Gallaudet University began the tradition of the football huddle in the 1890’s, in order to conceal their signed plays from the opposing team. 在19世纪90年代,为了 向对方球队隐瞒自己签 约的比赛,加劳德特大 学开始了橄榄球赛拥挤 的传统。

8 The White House Executive Chef heads three White House kitchens, a staff of four sous-chefs, and reports directly to the chief usher. The Executive Chef works with the First Lady, Chief Usher, White House Social Secretary and the Executive Pastry Chef to plan menus for State Dinners, receptions, and day-to-day non-official meals. 白宫的执行主厨领导三 所白宫厨房,四位副主 厨,并直接向首席招待 员报告。执行主厨与第 一夫人、首席招待员、 白宫社交秘书及执行糕 点主厨一起规划国宴菜 单、接待会和日常每天 的非官方饭菜。
