“华表”是怎样演变而来的？

How did the "Huabiao" (ornamental column) come into being?

也就是我们常常说的华表。

It's what we usually call Hua Biao.

牌坊又和棂星门、华表有着“血缘关系”，可用“表兄弟”来比拟。

The "relationship by blood" between memorial archway and latticework star door, ornamental columns erected in front of palaces can be compared with "cousin".

广场周边还设有5盏高12.34米的大型宫灯，由汉白玉柱托起，光华灿烂，与华表交相辉映。
