The origin of the name Taibai Lake

Taibai Lake is related to the poet Li Bai, and the lake is also named after Li Bai.

According to legend, during the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, there was a JOE Street on Taibai Lake. That summer, the poet Li Bai spent the night in the Jiangxin Temple in Caishan, Huangmei, and was excited to see that Caishan was independent from the river and the temple was soaring. Let people bring wine and prepare to drink and write poems. As soon as I opened my mouth, I understood that Jiangxin Temple is a Buddhist temple and I dare not violate the rules. The next morning, Ambassador Li Bai asked the ship owner to row to Huangmei County as quickly as possible. After more than ten miles, I arrived at JOE Street. In a hotel at the east end of the street, Li Bai drank eight bowls in one breath, and absently wrote the famous poem "Sleeping in the Temple of the River" on the wall of the hotel: a dangerous building is 100 feet high, and you can pick stars in your hand. Dare not speak loudly for fear of scaring people. From then on, "JOE Street" was called "Taibai Street". Several years later, due to subsidence, Taibai Street sank and became a picturesque Taibai Lake. Shi can, a poet in A Qing, wrote in Crossing Taibai Lake at Night: "The waves are like mirrors in the sky, and the lake is endless. Intermittent fishing songs turn with the shore, and idle gulls gather in the sand garden. Light smoke obliquely wipes Shucheng willow, and sunset frequently urges harbor ships. There are better mountains and rivers, and I have been shocked several times. "
