How big is the lonely mountain in the West Lake in Hangzhou?

Hangzhou West Lake is located in the west of Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, in the center of Hangzhou. It was formerly called Wulin Water, Qiantang Lake and Xizi Lake, and was called West Lake only in the Song Dynasty. The lake is 3.3 kilometers long from north to south and 2.8 kilometers wide from east to west. The original water surface area is 5.64 square kilometers, including 6.3 square kilometers of islands in the lake, and the circumference of the lake shore is 15 kilometers. The average depth is 1.21 meters, the maximum depth is 6.52 meters, the shallowest part is less than 1 meter, and the most muddy part is over 5 meters. Nowadays, with the "West Lake westward" expanding to 6.5 square kilometers, it basically reached the area of the West Lake 3 years ago. Su Causeway and Bai Causeway divide the lake into five parts: Lihu Lake, Waihu Lake, Yuehu Lake, Xili Lake and Xiaonan Lake. After the West Lake communicated with Qiantang River, about 3, cubic meters of Qiantang River water was introduced every day. The water in the West Lake changed from once a year to once a month, and the transparency increased from less than 6 cm to 12 cm. Originally an ancient bay, it was formed after siltation of Qiantang River.

Most waters of the West Lake are in a state of eutrophication, and Xiaonan Lake and Santan Neihu Lake are close to the lower limit of eutrophication. The main pollutants are domestic pollution, and N and P are 6-4 times higher than the normal value. The annual average water temperature is 17.6℃, with the highest temperature of 28.6℃ in October and the lowest temperature of 4.℃ in March. There is no lake ice. In the early 198s, there were 51 species of fish, belonging to 1 orders, 16 families and 43 genera. The sources of fish were: (1) native wild fish; (2) Qiantang River brings in fish; (3) Domesticated farmed fish were introduced artificially, and farmed fish became the dominant farmed fish in the West Lake. Silver carp and bighead carp accounted for 75% ~ 8% of the total farmed fish. Followed by crucian carp, Hanoi crucian carp, and other cultured fish include Megalobrama amblycephala, Megalobrama gracilis, Glossostrea, and Anguilla japonica. In order to protect large aquatic plants and stop stocking grass carp and herring, there are still a few in the West Lake.

There were as many as 36 lakes named after the West Lake in ancient China, of which Hangzhou West Lake was the most famous. For example, simply calling West Lake usually refers to Hangzhou West Lake. The West Lake is a world-famous scenic spot with a long history, with many historical sites, beautiful landscapes and pleasant scenery.

There are scenic spots everywhere in the West Lake. In addition to the "Ten Scenes of Qiantang" and "Eighteen Scenes of West Lake", the most famous ones are the "Ten Scenes of West Lake" named in the Southern Song Dynasty and the "Ten Scenes of New West Lake" awarded in 1985. In the 6-square axiom garden scenic area centered on the West Lake, there are more than 4 main scenic spots and more than 3 key cultural relics and historic sites. To sum up, the scenery of the West Lake is dominated by one lake, two peaks, three springs, four temples, five mountains, six gardens, seven caves, eight tombs, nine streams and ten views. In 1982, West Lake was designated as a national scenic spot, and in 1985, it was rated as one of the "Top Ten Scenic Spots in China". On May 8, 27, Hangzhou West Lake Scenic Area was officially approved by the National Tourism Administration as a national 5A-level tourist attraction.

Introduction to scenic spots

[ Edit this paragraph ]

The West Lake was called Qiantang Lake in ancient times, also known as Xizi Lake, and its shape was nearly equiaxed polygon. The lake was divided into five sub-lakes by Gushan, Su Causeway and Bai Causeway artificial dikes, and the sub-lakes were connected by bridge holes, so the water quality of each part could not be fully mixed, resulting in differences in the water quality of each lake. Most of the runoff recharge first entered the three sub-lakes on the west side, and then entered the outer West Lake. The lake has a total area of 5.593km2, a total volume of 11 million cubic meters and an average water depth of 1.97m.: The sediment of the West Lake is a kind of lacustrine and marsh sediments with particularly high organic matter content, which belongs to silty clay or silty loam. The top layer is all algal skeleton sapropelic layer (black organic clay), the middle layer is peat layer or swamp soil, and the bottom layer is basal silty layer. The rivers entering the lake are short streams, and the main recharge rivers are Jinsha stream, Longhong stream and Changqiao stream.

Around the West Lake, there are Longjing Mountain, Li 'an Mountain, Nanfeng Mountain, Yanxialing Mountain, Daci Mountain, Linshi Mountain, Nanping Mountain, Phoenix Mountain and Wu Shan in the southwest, which are collectively called Nanshan. There are Lingyin Mountain, north peak Mountain, Xiangu Mountain, Qixialing Mountain and Baoshi Mountain in the north, which are collectively called Beishan Mountain. They hold out the pearl of the West Lake like the hearts of all. The height of the mountain is not more than 4 meters, but the peaks are beautiful and the nymphs are beautiful. The north-south peaks are facing each other from a distance, soaring high into the sky.

The Ten Scenes of the West Lake were formed in the Southern Song Dynasty, and basically distributed around the West Lake. Some of them are located on the lake: Su Causeway Chunxiao, Quyuan Fenghe, Pinghu Qiuyue, Broken Bridge Snowfall, Willow Warbler, Huagang Fish Watching, Leifeng Sunset, Twin Peaks in the Clouds, Nanping Late Bell, Santan Yinyue, and the Ten Scenes of the West Lake are all good at each other, and together they can represent the essence of the ancient West Lake scenery, so no matter whether it is local in Hangzhou.

the origin of the name of the West Lake

[ Edit this paragraph ]

The West Lake in Hangzhou was first recorded in the Geography of Han Shu (Volume 28) by Ban Gu in the Eastern Han Dynasty: "Wulin Mountain, wherever Wulin water goes, it comes out. East into the sea, eight hundred and thirty miles. " It is generally believed that Wulin Mountain is the general name of the mountains around Lingyin and Tianzhu, and the south stream and the north stream originating in this area merge into Jinsha stream, which flows eastward into the West Lake, which is the largest natural water source of the West Lake. Therefore, the name "Wulin Water" is the first recorded name of the West Lake.

Li Daoyuan's Notes on Water Classics in the Northern Wei Dynasty recorded: "On the Nanjiang side of the county, there is a sacred lake of Ming Dynasty. It is rumored by the elders that there is a golden bull in the lake. If you see it in ancient times, it is unpredictable, and the name of the lake is unknown." At this time, two other ancient names of the West Lake were derived: Mingsheng Lake and Jinniu Lake.

Around the Eastern Han Dynasty, a local official named Huaxin built a pond in the east of the West Lake to defend the salt tide of Qiantang River, hence the name Qiantang Lake. This is the general name of West Lake in Tang Tang. In Bai Juyi's poems, Qiantang Lake is often mentioned, for example, in Answering a guest's question about Hangzhou, "The mountain name Tianzhu piles up indigo, and the lake name Qiantang sheds green oil". The poet Zhang Hu also has a poem entitled "Qiantang Lake Night in Early Spring".

The name of "West" Lake appeared because the former Qiantang County was moved from the west of the West Lake to the east of the West Lake after Sui Dynasty, that is, Qiantang Lake, which was originally in the east of the city, is now located in the west of the city. Lake lives in the west of the city, hence the name West Lake, which is the same as that of other places in the country with the same name. At the latest in the Tang Dynasty, the title of "West Lake" has been frequently used. It is also a poem by Bai Juyi, and the word "West Lake" is often used. For example, his poems are entitled "West Lake Returning to Gushan Temple at night to present guests" and "West Lake Farewell" and so on.

After Su Shi (Dongpo), a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, sang the eternal farewell song "If you want to compare the West Lake with Xizi, it is always appropriate to make light makeup and heavy makeup" in his famous poem "Drinking Chu Qing on the Lake", the West Lake has gained the reputation of Xizi Lake. Xizi is the peerless beauty of Yue in the Spring and Autumn Period. Compared with dozens of lakes named after the West Lake in the world, only the West Lake in Hangzhou deserves such a high reputation. In the Southern Song Dynasty, the West Lake was abnormally prosperous and gorgeous. The ruling group in the south of the Yangtze River did not want to restore their homeland, but indulged in lakes and mountains and luxuries, spending a lot of money and partying. So the West Lake was called "selling gold pot", which was very appropriate and very spicy.

In addition to the names mentioned above, there are many aliases for West Lake, such as Longchuan, Qianyuan, Shihan Lake, Fangshengchi, Shanghu, Gaoshi Lake, Mingyue Lake, Meiren Lake and so on. Each alias has its own origin. Shihan Lake was built by Bai Juyi during the reign of Tang Changqing to store and drain the lake. The upper lake is relative to the lower lake in the north; The release pool was obtained because Wang Qinruo, the governor of Hangzhou, invited the West Lake as the release pool during the Jubilee of the Northern Song Dynasty. Sage Lake is a Southern Song Dynasty literati building key, which is known as the wind of sage in West Lake. And so on, and so on. The West Lake has so many elegant names, which just shows her long history, beautiful scenery, rich cultural connotation and charming charm from one side.
