Introduction to the geographical location of ten scenic spots and thirteen pools in West Lake.
three pools mirroring the moon
Santan Yin Yue is the largest island in the West Lake, with beautiful scenery and quiet scenery. Also known as Saint Tan Yingyue, it covers an area of 60,000 square meters. Therefore, the island is called "Little Yingzhou", with beautiful shadows, elegant gardens, rich backgrounds and elegant appearance. It ranks among the ten scenic spots in the West Lake, especially in the Mid-Autumn Festival. The moon in the air, the moon in the water, the moon in the tower and the "bright moon" in the hearts of moon watchers shine up and down, eager to fly. Landing from the north pier of the island, passing through two buildings, such as the Pantheon, and entering the Jiuqu Pingqiao, there are four pavilions on the bridge: Wang Kaiting, Cui Yingting, Huajiazi Pavilion, Yubei Pavilion and Kangxi Yubei Pavilion. There are four pavilions with different shapes in my heart, which make people stop to watch, laugh or take pictures, linger and enjoy the beautiful scenery. To the east of Jiuqu Bridge, there is a short wall of white powder across the water. The two ends of the wall are not connected and shaped like a screen. However, there are four leaky windows on the powder wall, which are decorated with exquisite flowers. The space inside and outside the wall is separated and infiltrated with each other. Outside the wall, tourists are bustling, but inside the wall, it is elegant and quiet, and it is very different from each other at close range. The scenery of swimming in three pools and printing on the moon is famous at home and abroad. Santan silver moon Garden was formed by the accumulation of lake mud in the thirty-fifth year of Wanli in Ming Dynasty (AD 1607), and the surrounding dike was built in the thirty-ninth year of Wanli. In the fifth year of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty (AD 1727), the north and south were connected by a curved bridge, and the east and west were connected by a willow embankment. Covering an area of 7 hectares, it looks like a field when looking down, and is known as the water garden of "the island in the lake, the lake in the island". There are pavilions, pavilions, buildings and terraces on the mainland, such as "opening the net", "pavilions", "welcoming the green", "relaxing" and "my soul mate". Stone bridge twists and turns, leaking windows are ethereal and far-reaching, flowers and trees are sparse, and the reflection is blurred. In the meantime, step by step, from one scene to another, is very interesting.
San Tan Yin Yue is the largest of the three islands in the West Lake, also known as San Tan Yin Yue, with an area of 60,000 square meters. There are lakes on the island, surrounded by circular dikes, and the water surface is in the shape of a field. There is a zigzag bridge with three twists and turns. The island is beautifully built, full of flowers, and is known as the "water fairy". Three stone pagodas stand on the south lake of the island. The height of the pagoda is 2 meters, and the spherical pagoda is hollow with five small round holes. There is a saying that "the moonlight reflects the pool and the stupa is three points". People have always compared this place to the fairy island in myths and legends, so the island is called "Little Yingzhou". It is beautiful in shadow, elegant in garden, rich in context and graceful in appearance. It ranks among the ten scenic spots in the West Lake, especially the "bright moon" in the Mid-Autumn Festival. The moon in the air, the moon in the water, the moon in the tower and the moon watchers have their own sustenance, reflecting from top to bottom and thinking. It is a must-see place for autumn tourists.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival moonlit night, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of "autumn water cage gauze moon cage" by boating in Hangzhou West Lake. It is the three pools of the West Lake that print the moon, and it has been a scenic spot for enjoying the moon since ancient times. Three stone pagodas stand gracefully on the rippling lake. On the Mid-Autumn Moon Night, candles are lit in the tower, and tissue paper is spread outside the cave. The light shines through the paper, just like a bright moon, reflected in the lake. The bright moon is in the sky, and the moonlight, lights and lake light complement each other, and the moon shadow, tower shadow and cloud shadow set each other off, painting a beautiful picture of "a lake with golden water and autumn", which makes people linger back and forth.
Three pools are full of flowers and trees, and the pace is different. Because it is located in the lake, it is an excellent place to appreciate the light and water color of the West Lake Mountain, and it is also the best place to appreciate the "clear light" and "rainy color" in Su Dongpo's poem "The water is beautiful and the mountains are empty and rainy".
The three stone pagodas in the lake were originally built by Su Shi in the Song Dynasty. After Su Shi dredged the West Lake, three bottle-shaped stone pagodas were built in the depths of the lake outside the dike, named "Santan".
On the south embankment of Santan silver moon, it stands by the lake.
"My soul mate" is a Buddhist word, which means: "Needless to say, we know each other", which is commonly called "soul mate". There is a stone fence in front of the pavilion, three stone pagodas in the lake stand in front of you, and the vast lake surface and far and near scenery are also vivid. There is a couplet written by a famous writer hanging on the pavilion column:
The mountains are quiet against the smoke and waves, and the tower shadows are clear.
Santan silver moon Island, also known as Zhou Xiaoying, together with Hu Xinting and Ruan Gongdun, is called the Three Islands on the Lake. Including the water surface, the whole island covers an area of about seven hectares. There are curved bridges connecting the north and the south, and bridges connecting the east and the west with earth dikes cross each other, dividing the water surface of the island into four parts, and the periphery of the water surface is a circular dike. Seen from the air, the land on the island looks like a giant "field", which shows that there are islands in the lake and lakes in the island. The waterscape is unique among the ten scenic spots of the West Lake, and it is a classic of water town gardens in the south of the Yangtze River in China. In the thirty-fifth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1607), Qiantang County ordered Nie Xintang to take the silt from the lake and build a dam around the island, which initially became a lake in the lake as a place for release. Later generations built three small bottle-shaped stone pagodas in the south lake of the island, which were called "three pools". In the early Qing dynasty, there were curved bridges and halls on the island, and hibiscus was planted around the inner lake. After Peng Yulin, a retired general in Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty, built a villa here, Zhou Xiaoying began to take shape.
The three beaches in silver moon are rich in landscape layers, diverse in space and unique in architectural layout. Landing from the north pier of the island, passing through two buildings such as the Pantheon, that is, stepping into the Jiuqu Pingqiao, there are four pavilions with different shapes on the bridge: Wang Kaiting, Pavilion, Kangxi Imperial Monument Pavilion and Me and Ai, which make people stop and go, rest their feet, laugh or take pictures, linger and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
To the east of Jiuqu Bridge, there is a short wall of white powder across the water. The two ends of the wall are not connected and shaped like a screen. However, there are four leaky windows on the powder wall, which are decorated with exquisite flowers. The space inside and outside the wall is separated and infiltrated with each other. Outside the wall, tourists are bustling, but inside the wall, it is elegant and quiet, and it is very different from each other at close range. Transportation: Take a boat from West Lake.
Because of its beautiful scenery, the country printed its image on coins. One is the foreign exchange certificate 1 yuan in the late 1970 s, with a bright emerald pattern printed on the front of the three pools; Then, the scenery on the back of the fifth set of RMB one-dollar bills also uses almost the same pattern-three stone towers in the water. Therefore, the reputation of this scene of the West Lake has greatly increased.
three pools mirroring the moon
It is mainly composed of two major scenic spots.
First, Xiaoying Island, the largest of the three West Lake islands, covers an area of about 70,000 square meters, of which water accounts for 60%. The island foundation was built by Nie Xintang, the magistrate of Qiantang County in Wanli period of Ming Dynasty, using the silt dredged by the West Lake. In the Qing Dynasty, it was expanded, with Liu Di in the east, Liu Di in the west and a curved bridge in the north and south, forming the pattern that there are islands in the lake and lakes in the island today. Traveling around it is like entering Xianshan Qiongdao, so it is called Zhou Xiaoying.
The second is the three stone pagodas in Santan, silver moon. According to legend, after Su Shi dredged the West Lake, he built three bottle-shaped stone pagodas in the depths of the lake, named Santan. It is forbidden to plant Polygonum hydropiper in the waters from Su Causeway to here, in case of lake mud deposition. The three existing pagodas will be rebuilt next year. The three pagodas are about 2 meters high and distributed in an equilateral triangle, each side is 62 meters.
According to folklore, the three legs of a big incense burner are three feet. This big incense burner holds a snakehead essence upside down, and the three legs of the incense burner protrude out of the water to become the three legs of the incense burner.
Santan Yin Yue is a good place to enjoy the moon on the lake. Every Mid-Autumn Festival, when the bright moon is in the sky, people light candles on the hollow tower, and the hole is covered with tissue paper, through which candlelight passes. At this time, the tower shadow, cloud shadow and moon shadow are integrated, and candlelight, moonlight and lake light complement each other, showing the beautiful scenery of "the moon in the sky is round and the shadow in the lake is three". Santan Yin Yue got its name.
My soul mate pavilion must not be considered to mean that two lovers are soul mates. "My soul mate" is a Buddhist Zen saying, which means "Needless to say, we know each other". But then again, if it is not "two soul mates", how can it be "needless to say, we understand each other"?
Santan Yin Yue is the largest island in the West Lake, covering an area of 60,000 square meters, and is known as Zhou Xiaoying. There are lakes on the island, surrounded by circular dikes, and the water surface is in the shape of a field. There is a zigzag bridge with three twists and turns. The island is beautifully built, full of flowers, and is known as the "water fairy". Three stone pagodas stand on the south lake of the island. The height of the pagoda is 2 meters, and the spherical pagoda is hollow with five small round holes. There is a saying that "the moonlight reflects the pool and the stupa is three points".
Zhou Xiaoying was built by dredged lake silt, and the lakes on the island were divided into "fields" by bridges, forming a unique landscape with islands in the lake and lakes in the island.
Three pools are full of flowers and trees, and the pace is different. Because it is located in the lake, it is an excellent place to appreciate the light and water color of the West Lake Mountain, and it is also the best place to appreciate the "clear light" and "rainy color" in Su Dongpo's poem "The water is beautiful and the mountains are empty and rainy".
The three stone pagodas in the lake were originally built by Su Shi in the Song Dynasty. After Su Shi dredged the West Lake, three bottle-shaped stone pagodas were built in the depths of the lake outside the dike, named "Santan".
On the south embankment of Santan silver moon, it stands by the lake.
"My soul mate" is a Buddhist word, which means: "Needless to say, we know each other", which is commonly called "soul mate". There is a stone fence in front of the pavilion, three stone pagodas in the lake stand in front of you, and the vast lake surface and far and near scenery are also vivid. There is a couplet written by a famous writer hanging on the pavilion column:
Between the mountains and the waves,
The tower shadow is clear and the culvert is clear.
One year, Shandong craftsman Lu Ban came to Hangzhou with his little sister. When they arrived in Hangzhou, they rented two paved houses by the Qiantang Gate, hung up the signboard of "Shandong Lushi, made of iron, wood and stone", and collected apprentices to pass on their skills in Hangzhou. Luban is a famous craftsman. As soon as his signboard was put up, it caused a sensation in Hangzhou, and many people came to study. Luban chose it and took 180 ingenious young students as apprentices. Those who make hammers make hammers and those who use axes use axes to teach skills one by one. The craftsmanship of the Luban brothers and sisters can be described as ingenious. It's really ingenious: a stone dog made of an axe can watch the door, and a carved wooden cat can catch mice. After their guidance, all 180 disciples became masters. One day, Luban brothers and sisters were carefully imparting skills to their disciples. Suddenly, a black wind blew and the dark clouds in the sky turned upside down. It turns out that a snakehead has come to worship the world! The snakehead essence rushed to the center of the West Lake and dug out a deep pool 360 feet high. It settled in Shentan Beach and stayed there all the time. The snakehead essence blows in the deep pool, and the fish in Hangzhou stinks; Black fish spray deep pool water, heavy rain in north and south mountains. The willow trees by the West Lake broke and the flowers fell. The flood in the West Lake keeps rising, and the whole city of Hangzhou is submerged in smelly water. The Luban brothers and sisters boarded Baoshan with 180 disciples. They looked ahead and saw a piece of Wang Yang. People fled to the mountains around the West Lake. In the middle of the West Lake, there is a big whirlpool, and a wide fish mouth is tilted in the whirlpool. The fish mouth spits out bad smell and spews black water upwards. The fish mouth in the center of the West Lake is getting higher and higher, slowly revealing the whole big fish head. When the fish head stood up, a dark cloud suddenly flew up, and the snakehead essence stepped on the dark cloud and jumped up. Dark clouds floated in the air, floated to the top of the gem, and slowly fell, and a dark young man emerged from the dark clouds. Black epigenetic turn micro bean chicken glare, glanced at Lu Mei, asked, "ha! Beautiful girl, what do you do? " Lu Mei said, "You ask that girl what she does. I am a skillful craftsman, girl. " Black epigenetic saw Lu Mei one eye from beginning to end and said, "yes, yes! I see your bright eyes and curved eyebrows. You must be able to cut silk and satin skillfully. Come with me to make new clothes! " Lu Mei shook his head.
Black epigenetic looked at Lu Mei from her feet and said, "Yes, yes! I think your slim figure and dexterous hands must have a good needle and thread, and you can trace dragons and embroider phoenixes. Come with me to embroider brocade! " Sister Lu still ignored him. Black epigenetic couldn't help but stretch out his hand to pull Lu Mei: "Beautiful girl, it doesn't matter if you can't cut or embroider. If you get married in my home, you will be happy to enjoy your life. " Ruban separated his hands with a hammer and shouted, "Go away!" " Black epigenetic still grinned: "My skin is three feet thick and I'm not afraid of your hammer. If the older girl marries me, everything will be fine. If the big girl doesn't marry me, the flood will spread all over the mountains! " Sister Lu thought that if there was another flood, the whole city would die. She rolled her eyes twice and then had an idea. She said to the black boy, "You can't get married in a hurry. Let my brother do my dowry first." The black boy was so happy that he died: "Good girl, I promise. What dowry are you going to do? " Lu Mei said, "The mountains are high and the rocks are high. I asked my brother to turn him into a big incense burner. " The black boy patted his thigh with joy: "All right, all right! The king of snakehead in the sky fell to the imperial court. The stone incense burner with you as his wife is just a collection to support him. " Lu Mei took May to discuss for a while. Lu Ban said to the black boy, "Look at the water in the east and the water in the west. What should we do? " ? Put down the flood first so that I can start work. "Black epigenetic Zhang opened his mouth and took a drag, and the flood in the city flew up and poured into his stomach. Lu Ban pointed to a cliff on the top of the mountain and asked the black youth, "Can you take this half of the mountain down and make a stone incense burner?" "? " Black epigenetic laughed: "As long as I lift my feet, black wind will blow behind me;" What is a small censer, even the whole mountain can suck! " Say that finish, blow a black whirlwind, and then go with the wind. The Luban brothers and sisters led 180 disciples to climb the cliff. Lu Ban swung a sledgehammer and slammed the first hammer. Lu Ban smashed a hammer, Lu Mei smashed a hammer, and the disciples smashed one hundred and eighty hammers one after another. "Bang, the cliff fell. There is a cliff on Gemstone Mountain. The cliff is really big. It seems white here and white there, but people here can't see people there. How can you turn him into a round stone incense burner? Sister Lu lost her mind at the moment, and the disciples were even more worried.
Only Lu Ban has a plan. Standing in the middle of the cliff, he aimed at the deep pool in the middle of the lake, estimated the size, picked up a long rope and measured it. Lu Ban measured her, told her sister to tighten the other end of the rope and ran around her for a week. Rumei's footprints drew a circle on the cliff. The Luban brothers and sisters first made a fool of themselves on the cliff, and one hundred and eighty disciples formed a circle and went down as they did. I only heard a stone tinkling. Day after day, a * * * lasted for 7749 days, and the cliff disappeared and became a stone incense burner with a big top. There are three inverted gourd-shaped sharp feet under the drum incense burner. The Luban brothers and sisters commanded the disciples to make a round hole with light transmission on three sides on each pointed foot. The big stone incense burner is finished. Black epigenetic also led the sedan chair to carry the bride at the foot of Baoshi Mountain. Lu Ban said to the black boy, "Don't be busy. You move the dowry here first, decorate it, and wait until your sister gets home and dresses up before you get on the sedan chair. " Black epigenetic was so happy that he turned and ran down the hill. The whirlwind rolled up behind him, big and heavy, and the stone incense burner was sucked to the back and rolled behind him. The black boy ran and ran to the center of the West Lake, turned into a big snakehead and plunged into the deep pool. The incense burner rolled around, rolled to the center of the West Lake, and slipped on the slope next to the height of the deep pool. It was "photographed" and turned upside down, covering the deep pool tightly, leaving no gap. The incense burner is covered with snakehead essence, which is suffocating. Congratulations on getting rich; Top up, the stone incense burner does not move; I want to blow a gust of wind, but I can't turn around. I had no choice but to drill down hard, and the incense burner sank deeper and deeper. Hangzhou people learned that the Luban brothers and sisters were hiding snakehead essence in the town, and they all rushed to the West Lake to watch the fun. It's really gratifying. Everyone applauds. The snakehead essence finally suffocated at the bottom of the West Lake, and the stone incense burner was deeply trapped in the mud at the bottom of the lake, leaving only three gourd-shaped incense burner toes exposed on the lake. In the evening, the Luban brothers and sisters took the lead in rowing to the middle of the lake and lit candles in the light-transmitting round holes on three sides of the stone incense burner, so that everyone could dance and revel on the lake all night to celebrate the victory of Zhen Fu snakehead essence. After removing the essence of snakehead, the water in the West Lake became clear again. People go boating and fishing on the lake, and plants flowers and trees around the West Lake. The scenery of the West Lake is more and more beautiful every day. Since then, every Mid-Autumn Festival night, candles are lit within three feet of the stone incense burner in the middle of the lake, and the candles are reflected in the lake, showing several moon shadows. This place is called "Santan January".
There are three stone pagodas on the sparkling Xizi Lake. Seen from a distance, it looks like a jade carving. This is the "Three Tans and the Moon".
The three stone pagodas are arranged in a triangle. The shapes are all gourd-shaped.
The spire is a finely carved treasure top, just like a small tooth tower, but it is different from the tooth tower. The Buddha Tooth Pagoda is a typical Buddhist building, but it is endowed with the aesthetic feeling of folk art here. The deformation of the base and the tower body are integrated, making people confused whether it is a separate work of art or a part of the building.
This tower is not only a hollow stone ball, but also has three round holes on it. In this way, an ordinary stone ball has become a simple and exquisite art building. If you drive a boat, shake it to the side of the tower and look through a hole, you will "see the sky through the pipe". Therefore, every Mid-Autumn Festival, people always light a fire in the stone tower and then cover the round hole with thin white paper. The bright moon is in the sky, and the blazing flame is projected on the lake through the white paper. Fifteen glittering tracts, together with the reflection of the Moon Palace Fairy, make sixteen moons soar above the clear water and float among the waves. This scene is really amazing.
The tower foundation is a round stone plate, which supports the stone tower, just like a round jade river, with a gentle breeze and graceful appearance. In fact, it is said that there is a stone pillar under the disc, which goes straight to the bottom of the lake. However, because the lake just didn't support the stone pillars, the stone towers seemed to float on the water, achieving unexpected artistic effects.
Although the three stone pagodas have the same shape, they are still more poetic instead of boring because of the different arrangement of levels.
Look, the blue waves are rippling, surrounded by mountains, and the three stone pagodas in the middle of the lake are independent. Is it a fairy mountain or a strange island? Phantom? The beauty of architectural art combined with the beauty of the environment has aroused people's reverie about the three beaches!
Ah, three pools of moon, three pools of moon, the beauty of architectural art, the beauty of romanticism, all the beauty are gathered here and integrated into one. ...
West Lake
"Water Ming Che, the mountains are empty and rainy. Compared with West Lake and West Lake, light makeup and strong ink are always suitable. " This is a wonderful description of the West Lake by Su Dongpo, a writer in the Northern Song Dynasty. He compared the West Lake to Yue in the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period, and to a stone with oriental charm.
West Lake, also known as Xizi Lake, is located in Hangzhou, a paradise on earth. The scenery is different all year round, with unique charm and typical beauty of oriental women. Especially in the early spring, the West Lake wakes up like a dream and is charming.
The West Lake has an island, and there is a lake in the island. In addition, Bai Causeway and Su Causeway are separated, which is very oriental aesthetic style. Due to geological reasons, the water in the West Lake is not as clear and transparent as other lakes, but translucent, with bright water and misty mountains, which is very subtle and hazy, with the leisure and subtle beauty of the East, in line with the aesthetic taste of the East.
The main attractions of the West Lake are: Su Causeway Xiao Chun, Liulang Wenying, Shuangfeng Tea Rhyme, Huagang Fish Watching, Quyuan Fenglian, Pinghu Qiuyue, Santan Yin Yue, Nanping Night Bell, Lei Feng Zhao Xi, Broken Bridge Canxue and so on. Known as the "Ten Scenes of West Lake".
You can take a boat to the three islands in the lake at the park pier. The central pavilion of the lake is located in the center of the West Lake, and the scenery on the lake is unobstructed.
Su Causeway is the passage that runs through the north and south scenic spots of the West Lake. In A.D. 1089, Su Dongpo, a poet of the Northern Song Dynasty, presided over the dredging project of the West Lake, and built this dike with mud grass, which was called "Su Causeway" in history. Su Causeway has a scene of "Six Bridges and Willow", which is charming in sunny days and dreamy in rainy days. Six bridges are full of clouds and water. "Su Causeway Xiao Chun" is the first of the ten scenic spots in the West Lake. When you come to the embankment to enjoy the early spring scenery, you can see the West Lake as dreamy and charming, which constitutes a wonderful landscape painting.
"Liu Lang Wen Ying" was originally a royal garden in the Southern Song Dynasty. In the garden, Liu Chengxing and oriole shuttled among the willow leaves in spring, but their voices were not heard, and they were full of artistic conception.
"After all, the scenery of the West Lake in June is different from that at four o'clock. The next day, the lotus leaf is infinitely blue, and the lotus color is different. " This is a poem by Fan Chengda, a poet in the Song Dynasty, describing the lotus flowers in the West Lake. Whenever summer comes, the breeze blows and the lotus leaves are swaying, giving people beautiful enjoyment. "Quyuan Fenglian" is one of the ten scenic spots in the West Lake. It is meaningful and comfortable to see lotus flowers in the West Lake in summer.
In Watching Fish in the Flower Harbor, you can appreciate the poetry of "there are fish in flowers and flowers in flowers".
"Autumn Moon in Pinghu" and "Broken Bridge and Broken Snow" are all on the Bai Causeway. Bai Juyi, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, was the secretariat of Hangzhou and managed the West Lake. Later generations remembered him and called him Bai Causeway. Bai Juyi wrote a poem "I love the lack of the eastbound lake, and the white sand embankment under the shadow of the green poplar", which was written about this embankment. "Pinghu Qiuyue" is surrounded by water on three sides, and a platform is built on the water in front of the building. Whenever the Mid-Autumn Festival moonlit night, the lake is as flat as a mirror, and you can enjoy the moon and tea on the platform, which is full of fun. "Broken Snow" is at the eastern end of Bai Causeway, where the white snake meets Xu Xian in the folk story Legend of the White Snake.
"Santan Yin Yue" is in the south of the pavilion, in the middle of the lake. It is a scenic spot with an island in the lake and a lake in the island. Boating on a moonlit night shows that "the moonlight reflects the pool, and the shadow is divided into three", hence the name "San Tan Yin Yue".
Nanshan Road is eastbound, not far from Jingci Temple, one of the four ancient temples in the West Lake. Legend has it that Jigong practiced here. "Nanping Night Bell" stele pavilion is in front of Jingci Temple. There is a bronze bell in the temple. The bell is loud and far away, and can be heard for miles away. There used to be a song: "Nanping Night Bell, Gone with the Wind ..." It may be written here.
The original Leifeng Tower on Qianleifeng Mountain in Jingci Temple collapsed in 1924, leaving the name of "Leifeng Sunset".
On the bank of Hongchun Bridge, you can see the pavilion of "Twin Peaks in the Clouds". On the occasion of the clouds, the pavilion overlooks the south and north peaks and is full of weather.
In winter, the West Lake is not lonely. Plum blossoms that bloom against the cold are in full bloom, surrounded by flowers, layered on top of each other. The clouds are steaming, like the sun, full of fiery youth. The breeze is blowing and the sea is fragrant. Like a passionate and energetic young girl.
The beautiful West Lake has attracted countless celebrities and heroes. Since the Tang Dynasty, Li Bi, a famous minister, Bai Juyi, a poet, and Su Dongpo, a writer, have all been officials here. Lin Hejing, a poet of the Northern Song Dynasty, lived here in seclusion, planting plums and releasing cranes, and was called the "Plum Wife Crane". Xiao Yu, a family member, is full of wisdom, and the painter Li Shutong studied here. Yue Fei, a national hero, was buried here, as was Qin Gui, a great traitor, and they were a pair of bitter underground enemies.
The West Lake is beautiful! You can visit the West Lake and enjoy the "paradise on earth".
