被称为山站或避暑胜地的机构是一种与西方人在东方居住有关的现象。“去山上”是几乎所有西方人的年度日历的常规部分,他们的经济地位和就业关系将允许在度假胜地度过一个稍微延长的假期。山站不是当地的一个机构,而是世纪由英国和荷兰殖民统治者开发的,目的是让在异国他乡的逗留不那么不舒服。在过去的世纪里,山站的习俗传遍了整个东方,分布的频率和为夏季游客提供的不同标准各不相同。本文旨在探讨山站的起源、上山习俗的发展及其对当地民俗和经济的影响。“东方”一词适用于从印度西部到日本北方的亚洲土地。整个东方都在讨论中,尽管其中相当大的一部分位于热带以外。
HE institution known as the hill station or the summer resort is a phenomenon connected with the residence of the Occidental in the Orient.' "Going to the hills" is a regular part of the annual calendar of nearly all Occidentals whose economic status and employment affiliations will permit a somewhat extended vacation at a resort. The hill station is not a native institution but one developed during the nineteenth century by the British and Dutch colonial masters in order to make sojourns in a foreign land less uncomfortable. In the past century the hill-station custom has spread throughout the Orient, with varying frequency of distribution and different standards of provision for the summer visitor. It is the purpose of this article to inquire into the origin of the hill station, the growth of the custom of "going to the hills," and the effects on native customs and economies. The term "Orient" is applied to the Asiatic lands from western India2 around to northern Japan. The whole of the Orient is discussed, even though a considerable part of it lies outside the tropics.
