Abstract
China has extremely rich resources of tourism. The World Tourism Organization predicts that China will become the first world tourism power by 2020. How to better promote the Chinese tourism resources and brand to overseas visitors is not only an important content of China tourism development, but also an important issue in tourism translation studies. Tourist publicity materials belong to functional and informative texts, so the translation must accurately and completely transfer information of tourism and culture. Coincidently, the functional equivalence theory emphasizes that good translation should achieve the goal of functional equivalence. Hence, based on functional equivalence theory, this thesis made a study on the translation of tourist publicity materials. Through the analysis of the characteristics and functions of tourist publicity materials, it strives to explore the corresponding translation strategies and methods under the guidance of equivalence theory. This study aims to understand the differences between Chinese and western culture, discusses the processing methods of cultural information in functional text translation, in order to deepen the tourism translation study, at the same time hope to provide some references for foreign-related tourism translation learners and practitioners.
