海参崴 自由随性的故土

A Brief Look at Vladivostok

关于海参崴的知识，还是读中学的时候从课本上了解到一二。后来迷上了金庸的武侠小说，又从其八卷本的《鹿鼎记》中知道了清朝称俄国为“罗刹国”，称俄罗斯人为“罗刹人”。再查佛经，始知罗刹者，即魔鬼也。至于称俄罗斯人“老毛子”，多为东三省父老所为，原因在于俄罗斯人无论男女，身上均长满了长毛。

In 1862, the Sino-Russian Treaty of Peking was signed. In this treaty, more than 400,000 square kilometers of land including Vladivostok was ceded to Russia. The Chinese name for Vladivostok means ＂control the eastern countries＂.
