====== 庞特基西斯特输水道及运河 ====== Situated in north-eastern Wales, the 18 kilometre long Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and Canal is a feat of civil engineering of the Industrial Revolution, completed in the early years of the 19th century. Covering a difficult geographical setting, the building of the canal required substantial, bold civil engineering solutions, especially as it was built without using locks. The aqueduct is a pioneering masterpiece of engineering and monumental metal architecture, conceived by the celebrated civil engineer Thomas Telford. The use of both cast and wrought iron in the aqueduct enabled the construction of arches that were light and d strong, producing an overall effect that is both monumental and elegant. The property is inscribed as a masterpiece of creative genius, and as a remarkable synthesis of expertise already acquired in Europe. It is also recognized as an innovative ensemble that inspired many projects all over the world. {{tag>文化遗产}} ^{{:欧洲和北美洲:英国:庞特基西斯特输水道及运河:20180531-112558.png}}^^ ^国别|{{:images:flag:flag_of_united_kingdom.svg?30|}}[[http://whc.unesco.org/en/statesparties/gb|英国 United Kingdom]]| ^中文名称|[[http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1303|庞特基西斯特输水道及运河]]| ^英文名称|[[http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1303|Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and Canal]]| ^遗产类别|文化遗产| ^登录年份|2009| ^选入标准|[[http://whc.unesco.org/en/criteria/|(i)(ii)(iv)]]| ===== 遗产分布 ===== ===== 遗产地图 ===== {{:欧洲和北美洲:英国:庞特基西斯特输水道及运河:20180531-112645.png}} ===== 遗产详细介绍 ===== ===== 遗产图片 ===== {{:欧洲和北美洲:英国:庞特基西斯特输水道及运河:20180531-112651.png}}{{:欧洲和北美洲:英国:庞特基西斯特输水道及运河:20180531-112654.png}} ===== 遗产邮票 ===== ==== 主要邮票 ==== 发行国家/地区:英国 United Kingdom |[{{:风光:欧洲:英国:uk197806.jpg|Llangollen Canal, Pont-Cysyllte}}]| ^1978-1979 英国 运河小本票 (6-2)^ |[{{:风光:欧洲:英国:uk198904.jpg|庞特基西斯特输水道}}]| |[{{:风光:欧洲:英国:uk198905.jpg|右下:庞特基西斯特输水道}}]| ^1989 英国 工业遗产 (4+1MS-4,MS)^
