    Historically, the scenery of the West Lake has been selected many times, and each selection has greatly improved the popularity and reputation of the West Lake.  For example, the "Ten Scenes of Qiantang [1]" selected in the Yuan Dynasty has been handed down to the present.

    Qiantang [Hangzhou] West Lake is not only a natural lake, but also a cultural lake.  It is the product of harmonious coexistence between man and nature.

    Therefore, in spring, "flowers are all over the embankment, willows are full of smoke", in summer there is "red clothes and green fans reflecting the clear waves", in autumn, "the lake is full of light and autumn", and in winter, it is praised as "a trace of blue and white ink on the white embankment".  It can be said that the name starts from the scene, and the scene is passed on by the name. There is poetry in the name, and there is painting in the poem.

    Yesterday, Su Xiaoya took everyone to start from "Willow Waves Hearing the Orioles", and took a boat to the center of the lake to see the lotus first; at noon, they went to the Su Causeway and turned left to "Flower Harbor Watching Fish", and had lunch at "Lu Yunsheng Villa";  At dusk, I came to Leifeng Pagoda, and enjoyed the "Sunshine of Leifeng" and the "Nanping Evening Bell" of Jingci Temple I experienced the tranquility of the years in the curling bells.

    When the moon rose, they went to Xiaoyingzhou on a painting boat again, and watched the "Three Pools Reflecting the Moon".

    [1] "Drunk in the Sky. Flowers and Acacia Trees" Liu Shizhong. Yuan Song

    Acacia trees with flowers and trees, and broken branches of birds and birds.

    Pairs of flounder at the bottom, mandarin ducks on the shore,

    ? Step by step to the golden chamber and emerald shop.

    The benefits of the world, don't think about it,

    Dian sold West Lake.

    Early this morning, Su Xiaoya led everyone to Su Causeway again to browse the "Su Causeway Spring Dawn".

    ?Dawn in spring is the best time to appreciate the "Su Causeway Spring Dawn". At this time, the mist is misty, the weeping willows are green, and the peach blossoms are in full bloom, showing the soft and beautiful temperament of the West Lake.

    It is late summer now, although there are no peach blossoms in full bloom, but they are also in full bloom.

    Look at the flowers, trees, branches and leaves, as if telling each other; birds dotted among them, forming a painting of broken branches; fish in the lake are in pairs, chasing happily underwater.

    The people on the shore are well-matched, and men and women get along intimately.  Step by step, it is inlaid with gold and emerald, and there are dazzling arrays everywhere.  What a paradise on earth!

    They passed by "Fenghe in Quyuan", glanced at "Shuangfeng Chayun", and came to the water pavilion "in the light of clouds and water".

    Here, you can overlook the rippling water color of the outer lake, and enjoy the lotus leaves in the inner lake, which makes people think deeply

    Su Xiaoya knew: this is the place where the white lady met Xu Xian.  Therefore, Broken Bridge has also become the most famous bridge with symbolic meaning of love.  It would be great if the relationship with Zhang Jin can be shortened here!

    So, Xiaoya had an idea and said: "How about we write poems on such a beautiful day?"

    Ji Xu knew that Young Master Zhou's literary talents were not good, and he was most afraid of poetry, so he said: "We adults don't participate in children's games, you children can play!"

    Xiaoya tilted her head and asked, "Who is the adult and who is the child?"

    Ji Xu smiled and said, "Young Master Zhou and I are your elders, of course we are adults."

    "Then, where is Mr. Zhang?" Su Xiaoya winked at Ji Xu.

    "Oh~" Ji Xu immediately understood, "Mr. Zhang is young, just like you, a child."

    Xiaoya was very excited, and said: "Then, let the adults judge our children's poetry!" She asked Cheng Xin to take out pens and paper and other stationery regardless of Zhang Jintong's approval.

    Cheng Xin put the paper, pen and ink on the stone table, went to the water's edge with the inkstone, took some water, returned to the water pavilion, and began to grind it.

    Zhang Jin picked up the pen and stretched his head to mix the ink.  Because the stone table was too short, the upper half of his body was almost lying on the table.

    Seeing that half of Zhang Jin's face was splashed with ink, Su Xiaoya took out a handkerchief to wipe it off for him.  She was holding the silk, wrapped around the middle finger and index finger of her right hand, and was wiping her face when she suddenly said "Ouch", took the silk and sat down.

    Zhang Jin put down his pen, stood up straight and asked, "Why did Miss Su lose her voice in surprise?"

    Su Xiaoya was startled and said: "Why is Mr. Zhang's earlobe pierced?!"

    Zhang Jin smiled and said: "Miss Su asked thisthe reason is very simpleI am Bai Zi, and all the men in the Bai family have ear piercing"

    [2] "Willow Shoot Green. West Lake" Zhao Ruyu. Ci

    How can such an explanation be convincing to Mr. Zhou who has played with countless women?  What's more, Zhou had doubts about Zhang Jin's identity early in the morning, so he came over to join in the fun and asked, "Why does the Baizi man have his ears pierced?"

    Zhang Jin said: "For hunting."

    "What does this have to do with hunting?"

    "The prey will run when they hear the sound of the earring."

    Zhou DaTraditional flowers and trees form a colorful scene, which is reflected with the water, light, clouds and sky inside and outside the island, symbolizing the Penglai fairy island in ancient Chinese mythology.

    8. Shuangfeng inserts the cloud

    It is composed of the south and north peaks in the mountains in the west of West Lake, and the viewing point by the Hongchun Bridge in the northwest corner of the West Lake. The theme is to appreciate the cloud-shrouded landscape of the mountains around the West Lake.

    In the Tang and Song dynasties, the north and north peaks of the West Lake had a pagoda. Looking at the two peaks from afar on clear days in spring and autumn, one can see that the two pagodas facing each other stand majestically and magnificently.  Whenever the clouds and mists fill the air, the tip of the pagoda appears and disappears in the clouds, reminiscent of a Buddhist kingdom in the sky.

    9. Leifeng Sunset

    ?Located in the area of ??Xizhao Mountain on the south bank of West Lake, covering an area of ??about 13.19 hectares, it is characterized by the silhouette of the ancient pagoda at dusk.

    The most important architectural element of this landscape is the Leifeng Pagoda, which was first built in the period of the Wuyue Kingdom (977). It was destroyed in the Republic of China (1924) and preserved in the form of ruins.  It shows the direct impact of the prosperity of Buddhist culture on the landscape of West Lake.

    Leifeng Pagoda has become a symbol of steadfast love because of "Legend of the White Snake", one of the four major folk love stories in China, endowing the West Lake landscape with rich historical connotations.  In 2002, in order to prevent the site from being eroded by wind and rain, a protective tower covering the site was built in the form of the original tower, taking into account the restoration of the ancient tower itself and the opposite view of Baochu Tower.

    10. Nanping Evening Bell

    Located in the area of ??Nanping Mountain on the south bank of West Lake, it covers an area of ??about 3.91 hectares. It is characterized by the aesthetic conception of the bells of Jingci Temple at the foot of Nanping Mountain resounding on the lake.

    The landscape is a Buddhist cultural relic, characterized by auditory appreciation.  At the foot of Nanping Mountain, there has been a Buddhist resort in the "Southeast Buddhist Kingdom" since the Five Dynasties (10th century).  Jingci Temple, which was built in 954 A.D., has become one of the two major Buddhist temples standing side by side with Lingyin Temple in the north and south of West Lake.  Whenever the evening bell of the Buddhist temple is rung, the vibration frequency of the bell is transmitted to the rocks and caves on the mountain, and then a melodious and resonant bell is formed.  Today, it has become a place for ringing bells to welcome the new year and bid farewell to the old on New Year's Eve in Hangzhou.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
