I. Introduction

The topic of this paper is An Analysis of the English Translation Strategies of Chinese Tourist Attractions. In the context of globalization, the number of foreign tourists has increased dramatically. According to the Word Tourism Organization, China will become the largest tourism destination country of the world in 2020. Therefore, the translation of tourism materials has a direct impact on the development of the tourism industry. Accurate translation helps to expand the international tourism market, and the inaccurate translation may make the readers have doubts, misunderstanding, and even resent feelings. The translation strategies of tourist attractions interpretation has become a hot topic. This paper will discuss this topic in detail with the methods of literature research and functional analysis. This paper consists of 4 parts, namely the status quo, reason, Nida's Functional Equivalence theory and my opinions. The focuses of this article are the principles and methods of translation and Nida's Functional Equivalence theory. Nida's Functional Equivalence theory has a great influence on my article. Functional Equivalence theory believes that the meaning is important and the form is second. We must respect the national difference. We should make the translation reproduce the original style from both form of language and cultural connotation. Only in this way can we get a great work.
