LONDON — During a summer dominated by the Olympics, Europe's largest street festival, the Notting Hill Carnival, gave London revelers another thing to smile about Sunday and Monday. The carnival is an important cultural event led by the West Indian community in London.
伦敦送走了夏季盛会奥运会后,又迎来了欧洲最大的狂欢节——诺丁山狂欢节,狂欢节给伦敦市民又带来了其津津乐道的欢声笑语 。诺丁山狂欢节是聚居在诺丁山地区的西印度群岛移民的文化盛会 。
About 1 million people poured onto the streets of west London during the two days of the Notting Hill Carnival. Swamped on all sides by massive crowds, hundreds of groups took part in the parade, dancing to the beat of pounding music that pumped through loudspeakers.
在为期两天的狂欢节上将有百万游客涌向伦敦西区 。届时将有几百条游行队伍加入到川流不息的人群中,伴随着扬声器中传来的重金属音乐跳舞 。
