《杭州有个清河坊》电视专题片文稿Manuscript for special TV programA Street is called Clean-river Street in Hangzhou开篇Introduction每一座著名的城市，都会有一条与其相般配的街市。
这条街道浓缩着一个城市的千年历史，传承着一个城市的文化脉络，见证着一个城市的荣耀兴衰。
如北京的王府井，上海的城隍庙，杭州的清河坊。
Every famous city has a representative street,which crystallizes its thousands years of history,bears the marks of its culture and witnesses its prosperity and decline.Of these streets are Wangfujing Street in Beijing, City God Temple in Shanghai and Clean-river Street in Hangzhou.出片头：杭州有个清河坊Title: A Street is Called Clean-river Street in Hangzhou第一篇清河坊溯源Chapter on e Origin of C lean-river Street东南形胜，三吴都会，钱塘自古繁华。
这是古人对富饶的杭州赞美之辞。
那么当初杭州繁华之地在哪里？“Suited in the fertile Southeast,It is the capital of Sanwu State andprosperous all along the history”.Such is our forebears’ comment on fertile HangzhouBut today, where is the once prosperous place of Hangzhou?答案很明确：The answer is definite:就在吴山脚下的皇城根儿——清河坊。
清河坊在西湖新十景的吴山南侧，东接中河、鼓楼湾。
At the foot of the imperial city beside Wu Mountain----Clean-river Street,which lies to the south of Wu Mountain, one of the new ten sceneries of West Lake and converges in the east with Middle River and Penglou Bay.清河坊的历史可以追溯到隋唐。
唐景龙元年，也就是公元707年，州司马李珣开挖中河。
在交通落后的古代，水路更易形成市肆。
The history of Clean-river Street can be traced back to as early as Tang Dynasty or even Sui Dynasty.During the first year of Emperor Jinglong’s reign, that is, in 707AD,Li Xun, prefecture minister of defense, organized the locals to excavate Middle River.In ancient times when transportation was underdeveloped,Waterways were more likely to bring flourishing markets.所谓的“珍异所聚，商贾辐辏”，就是说当初中河的繁荣景象。
尤其是五代吴越，吴越国王钱镠亲自运甓，拓筑杭州城，鼓楼处置为朝天门，成为当时出入杭州城的主要关隘。
可见早在南宋定都杭州之前，清河坊已是杭州的政治、文化、经济中心。
“There, the rarest and most precious goods appear,Merchants throng from far and near.”Such is the vivid picture illustrating the prosperity of the Middle River.During that time, especially the Wuyuue period of the Five Dynasties,Qian Miu---King of the Wu-Yue State, directed his subjectsto solidify and expand Hangzhou.At Gulou was set up Heaven Gate, latterly becoming a major pass in and out of Hangzhou.Obviously, Clean-river Street had been Hangzhou’s political, economical and cultural center before the Southern Song Dynasty settled its capital there.南宋绍兴年间，地处皇城根儿的清河坊得到了空前发展。
清河坊周围有大批皇家宫闱，权贵府第，官署衙门。
加上民居云集，商铺林立，真可谓是“一色楼台三十里，不知何处是吴山”。
清河坊这个称号，也是在这个时期正式出现。
据“四库全书提要”记载，南宋杭州人董嗣杲有“清河坊里灯宵月，负却东风已两年”的诗句。
说到清河坊的得名，还得从南宋四大名将之一的张俊说起。
张俊因战功显赫，又备受宋高宗赵构宠遇，赐他为清河郡王，并恩准在皇城跟前的承天寺建造清河郡王府。
During the Shaoxing Period of Southern Song Dynasty,Clean-river Street, which was suited at the foot of the imperial city, got greatly developed.Around the street there were batches of imperial buildings and households of officials or people of high-status.Besides, with thousands of habitants and rows after rows of shops,The street really bustled and buzzed all day along.Even the title of Clean-river Street,also came to be used officially within this period.According to the record of the General Contents of Siku Collected Works,a Hangzhou Citizen named Dong Cinie in Southern Song Dynastymentioned Clean-river Street in his poem.As for the popularity of Clean-river Street,We have to begin with Zhang Jun, one of Southern Song Dynasty’s four famous generals.For his glorious successes in wars, Zhang Jun won the confidence of Emperor Gaozhong of Song Dynasty,and was appointed lord of Clean-river Prefecture andapproved to establish his mansion right in Cheng Tian Temple right in front of the imperial city.“渡江天马南来，几人真是经纶手”。
在辛弃疾的呐喊声下，一个朝代开始了杭州的生活。
正如南宋选择了杭州一样，张俊选择了清河坊。
个中的原委，不言而喻。
也许是缘分，也许是巧合，或许还是天意。
从此，九里皇城，十里天街的出现，使得杭州从一个城市转变为都城。
被天街与御街夹峙的清河坊，瓦子勾栏，歌舞升平，茶坊酒楼，昼夜不绝。
奠定了清河坊“前有朝廷，后有肆市”的格局，开启了她八百年梦幻般的繁华。
“Across the river gallop neighing horses,the course of history can who reverse? ”With Xin Qiji’s shouting,One Dynasty began its life in Hangzhou.Just as Southern Song Dynasty chose Hangzhou, Zhang Jun chose Clean-river Street.The reason is obvious.Maybe it was by chance, maybe it was by lot, or maybe it is by the will of God.Thereafter, the appearance of nine-miles’ imperial city and ten-miles heaven streetschanged Hangzhou from a common small city into a metropolitan.And Clean-river street between the heaven street and the imperial streetquickly prospered.All this laid the foundation for Clean-river Street’s pattern: the imperial palace is in its front and the market is after its back.And from then on, it began its 800 years’ dreamlike prosperity.第二篇清河坊印象Chapter Two Image of Clean-river Street第一幕市井世态Act one Life of Ordinary people每天清晨，清河坊总是随着这位货郎的入市而热闹起来。
