鸟瞰欧洲（2019）

这是保加利亚 你从未见过的美丽国家
This is Bulgaria, as it's never been seen before.
我们将会从高空视角展现 这一片由山川与河流所界定的土地
From above we will reveal a land defined by water and mountains.
在这里 传统的生活方式 与现代社会相碰撞
Where traditional ways of living collide with the modern world.
在历史格局之下 显得既戏剧化又壮观不已
In a landscape of history, drama and spectacle.
在这一系列中 我们将进行一场横跨欧洲的空中之旅
In this series, we'll take an aerial tour across Europe,
航拍历时整整一年
filmed over the course of a single year
景观更迭 四季交替
and through the changing seasons,
我们将会探索
we'll uncover the culture,
塑造了我们今日所见的
history, and engineering
伟大欧洲国家的 文化 历史 以及工程设计
that built the great European nations we see today.
《保加利亚》
保加利亚
保加利亚位于巴尔干半岛
Bulgaria sits in the Balkan peninsula,
黑海的西海岸边
on the western shore of the Black Sea.
黑海
在北部 多瑙河形成了 与罗马尼亚的一道天然边界
The Danube River forms the country's natural border with Romania to the north.
罗马尼亚
它附近还有土耳其 希腊 北马其顿和塞尔维亚
Its other neighbors are Turkey, Greece, North Macedonia and Serbia.
土耳其 希腊 北马其顿 塞尔维亚
今时今日 保加利亚是一个
Today, Bulgaria is a modern country
有着约700万人口的现代国家
with a population of almost seven million people.
它的主要城市 包括首都索非亚
The major cities, including the capital Sofia,
是保加利亚信息技术业 日渐蓬勃的心脏地带
the center of Bulgaria's booming IT industry.
普罗夫迪夫 素有保加利亚文化核心之名
Plovdiv known as the cultural heart of Bulgaria.
而位于布尔加斯和瓦尔纳的海港
And the maritime ports of Burgas and Varna
负责处理该国的某些出口事宜
that handles some of the nation's exports,
包括机械 金属
including machinery, metals and cereals grown
以及产自于多布罗加肥沃土地的谷类
in the fertile fields of Dobrudja.
在近些年 保加利亚的农业
In recent years, Bulgaria's agriculture
甚至超越了法国
has even overtaken France to become the biggest
成为世上最大的薰衣草生产国
producer of lavender oil in the world.
在十二月底 寒冷季节降临 索非亚周围的山脉
In late December, the cold weather paints the hills around Sophia
以及巴尔干山脉间的古迹
and the monuments in the Balkan mountain range
都被皑皑白雪覆盖着
with clean white snow.
保加利亚迎来了冬天
Winter has arrived in Bulgaria.
冬天
每年一月 有些保加利亚人会打扮成吓人的怪物
Every January, some Bulgarians dress up as terrifying monsters
上街游♥行♥ 试图吓跑恶魔
and parade the streets in an attempt to scare away the bad spirits.
在保加利亚山区
In the mountains,
滑雪度假村迎来了旺季
Bulgaria's ski resorts hit peak season.
在这里上班并不易
And there's another job here
因为这里 或许是全国最不便于通勤的地点
that requires perhaps the nation's hardest commute.
巴尔干半岛的最高点 巨大的穆萨拉峰
Bulgaria's southwest is home to the tallest peak in the Balkans,
位于保加利亚的西南部
the mighty Musala.
穆萨拉峰
冬天里的穆萨拉峰完全被白雪覆盖着
In winter, the peak is completely covered by snow.
但只要仔细看看 就能看到山顶有一栋小建筑物
Yet a closer look reveals a small building that clings to its highest point.
穆萨拉气象观测站
This is Musala weather station.
该气象观测站位于接近海拔三公里处
Situated almost three kilometers above sea level,
它是你所无法想象的 偏远工作地点之一
this station is one of the most remote work places you could ever imagine.
但对于气象学者 扎哈里·内德亚科夫来说
But for meteorologist Zahari Nedyalkov,
登上山顶是他热爱的工作的一部分
trekking to the top of the mountain is just part of the job he loves.
不管是什么季节都好 他都很乐意出行
And it's a commute he happily makes once a month, no matter what the season.
我觉得 我跟这座山有特殊的渊源
I think that I have a very special connection with the mountain
每次我来到这里 我都觉得很自♥由♥
And every time I come here, I just feel free.
作为旅程的第一部分 扎哈里搭乘缆车
For the first part of the journey, Zahari takes a gondola
来到波罗夫兹滑雪场的最高点
to the highest point of the Borovets ski slope.
大多数人会从这里滑下山
While most people ski down from here,
扎哈里通过这条路爬上山顶
Zahari uses it as a gateway to the higher peak beyond.
冬天时 这里的气温会降低至零下32度
In winter, temperatures here can fall to -32 degrees,
这让旅途变得更加艰难
making this journey a serious challenge.
徒步穿越雪山三个小时后
After three hours of walking through the snowy mountains,
扎哈里面临这趟旅程最高难度的部分
Zahari reaches the most challenging part of the journey...
那就是得往上爬五百米 爬上陡峭的山壁上山顶
a steep 500 meter climb to the summit of the mountain.
取决于当下的天气状况
Depending on the weather conditions,
这短短的距离 或许得花他一小时的时间爬上山顶
it could take him up to an hour to climb this short distance.
登上山顶的路太陡峭了
The path to the top of the peak is so steep
扎哈里必须抓紧这根细绳 来保持身体的平衡
that Zahari must cling on to a thin rope to keep his balance.
一旦刮起风 他很可能会因此被吹下山
If the wind picks up, it could easily blow him off the cliff.
他终于登上穆萨拉峰的山顶
Finally, he reaches Musala's peak
准备好上班了
and is ready to start his shift.
他记录温度的读数
He takes readings of temperature.
以及降雨量
And rainfall.
然后用看起来像水晶球的日光仪
And uses a heliograph that looks like a crystal ball
测量日照时间
to measure the duration of sunshine.
该气象观测站建于1932年
The station was built in 1932
而且是欧洲各地
and is part of a large international network
国际高海拔气象观测站之一
of high altitude weather stations around Europe
各个气象观测站之间互通消息 制定天气预报
which share information used to create weather forecasts.
能在这么独特的地点上班 我感到十分荣幸
I think that it's a great privilege to work in such a unique place.
有时候我觉得自己就站在世界之巅
Sometimes, I feel like I'm on top of the world.
或许对保加利亚来说
And maybe, for Bulgaria,
这里就是世界之巅
this is the top of the world.
接下来的七天里 扎哈里会待在气象观测站
Zahari will spend the next seven days in the station,
监测天气每三个小时到变化
monitoring the weather every three hours.
多亏了他这样的气象学者
Thanks to meteorologists like him,
世界各地的人每天都能信赖天气预报
people around the world can rely on the forecast every day.
保加利亚繁华的首都索非亚 有超过一百万人口
Bulgaria's bustling capital, Sofia, is home to over a million people.
在奥斯曼帝国 五个世纪的压制性统治之后
It became the nation's capital in 1879
它于1879年成为该国的首都
after five centuries of oppressive Ottoman rule.
索非亚市中心还保留着奥斯曼帝国 统治时期建下的华丽建筑物
Opulent buildings from this time dominate the center of Sofia.
当中包括国家剧院
Including the National Theatre,
以及亚历山大·涅夫斯基主教座堂
and the Alexander Nevski Cathedral.
相比之下 城市里大面♥积♥的高楼
In contrast, large areas of tower blocks
提醒人们索非亚 曾在20世纪受到共♥产♥党的统治
are a reminder of Sofia's communist era in the 20th century.
如今保加利亚 是一个现代化的民♥主♥国家
Now, Bulgaria is a modern democracy
历史悠久的索非亚城出现了新面貌
and a new skyline is rising from Sofia's historic cityscape.
从高空视角来看 索非亚市中心 自19世纪建下的红屋顶周围
From above, the red rooftops of Sofia's 19th century heart
似乎环绕着20世纪的 钢骨水泥建筑物
appear to be surrounded by a grey sea of 20th century concrete.
在南边
And to the south,
一栋21世纪的摩天大楼
a 21st century addition
正在建造中
to the city's famous skyline is taking shape.
这是天空堡
This is Sky Fort,
保加利亚最高的摩天大楼
the tallest skyscraper in Bulgaria.
当49层楼高的天空堡落成后
When complete Sky Fort's 49 stories
它将会让四周 共♥产♥党时代建下的高楼黯然失色
will overshadow the surrounding communist era tower blocks,
该大楼提供有着绝佳景观的办公场所 能眺望索非亚市和维托沙山
providing office spaces with an incredible view over Sophia and the Vitosha mountain.
没了这架矗立于202米高处的 特大起重机
The construction of this mega-sized building would be impossible
就无法建成这栋超级大楼
without a mega-sized crane to reach its 202-meter peak.
只有少数驾驶员有权使用这架起重机
And only a handful of operators are authorized to use it,
当中包括卡缇雅·彼得罗娃
including Katya Petrova.
我从事这个行业有16年了
I have been in this industry for 16 years.
卡缇雅·彼得罗娃 起重机驾驶员
这是我目前开过最高的起重机了
This is the highest crane I have ever worked on so far.
但我不畏高
But I'm not afraid of the height.
每次卡缇雅上班前都得爬上32米高
Katya starts every shift by climbing 32 meters
位于塔吊顶部的驾驶舱
to the operator's cabin, located on the top of the tower crane.
她爬到驾驶舱后就能开始工作
Once she reaches it, she's ready to start her shift.
我们独特的空中视野捕捉到的这一幕
Our unique aerial view captures Katya
是卡缇雅将近四吨♥重度的水泥 移到摩天大楼的顶部的情景
as she lifts almost four tons of cement to the top of the skyscraper,
该团队目前正在建造屋顶的一部分
where the team is building part of the roof.
在离地两百米的高处工是件难事
Working at almost 200 meters above ground is a difficult task.
但对于卡缇雅来说真正难题 在于如何把建筑材料
But the real challenge for Katya is lifting materials to the lower floors
移至能见度有限的较低楼层
where she has limited visibility.
卡缇雅完全依赖位于地面的同事
Katya relies completely on the directions given to her
所给的指示
by her colleagues on the ground.
驾驶舱的位置太高了 所以一旦刮起风
The operator's cabin is so high that when the wind picks up,
它的位置可能会被摇到半米之外
it can sway up to half a meter.
这架塔式起重机有60米长的机臂
This flat top crane has a 60 meter long arm,
它的最大举重量为20吨♥
and it can lift a maximum of 20 tons.
今天卡缇雅 必须把四片外墙板移到十楼
Today, Katya must haul four facade panels to the tenth floor.
侧板玻璃上有瓷印
The side panels have a ceramic print on the glass,
从远处看上去是白色的
which makes them look white from a distance
同时从楼里往外看是透明的
and at the same time, transparent from inside the building.
