What is the origin of the name "Dongxihu" in Dongxihu District of Wuhan?

Dongxihu District is located on the left bank of the Yangtze River, in the northwest suburb of Wuhan, where the Han River, hanbei river River and Fuhuan River meet. Located between 30 34' and 30 47' north latitude and east longitude113 53'-114 30', it is a part of the ancient cloud dream. The territory is from Gusaoshu to the West Zhangalong Palace embankment to Rudukou, connecting the main embankment of the Han River to Xingou, then connecting the old embankment to Xin 'andu, and passing through Beijingzui, Huanghualao and Dalian to Daijiashan along the Lunhe River and Fuhe River (also known as Jiejing River) in the northeast. The whole territory is 38 kilometers long from east to west and 22.5 kilometers wide from north to south. The total area is 499.7 1 km2 (area after demarcation).

The whole territory is surrounded by water on three sides, and Zhang Gongdi is on one side. The Hanjiang River (also known as Xianghe), the largest tributary of the Yangtze River, originates in ningqiang county, Shaanxi Province, enters from Xingou Town and flows through the southwest, with a total length of 35.3 kilometers and an average annual transit water volume of 55.7 billion cubic meters (according to the data of Hubei Hydrological Station 1984). When it rises, it flows backwards from the new ditch and penetrates into the lake area through Xin' an every year. Fuhe (aka? Before the water transfer from 65438 to 0959, its main stream flowed south to Xin 'an Capital, and then it was divided into two tributaries, one of which flowed northeast, called Lunhe River, and the other flowed south, still called Fuhe River, where it flowed into the Han River and injected into the Yangtze River. ? Water, commonly known as the county river, joins the Lunhe River and enters the Jinghe River, and enters the Yangtze River from Chenjiaji via the East and West Lakes. After the diversion, Fuhe River flows through the northeast side of the area, with a transit length of 38.5 kilometers. It flows into the Yangtze River through Chenjiaji, with an average annual transit water volume of 47 1 100 million cubic meters. It starts from Hanbei River in Wanjiatai, Tianmen (1969- 1970, an artificial river after the diversion of the lower reaches of Tianmen River), with a total drainage area of 6,304 square kilometers. Transit in Xingou Town, 7 kilometers long, and enter the Han River through Xingoumen. Its tributaries flow through Hanchuan Minle Gate, through 15km area, and are discharged from Fuhe River through Dongshantou Gate. The flood discharge is 1200m3/s, 800m3/s and * * 200m3/s respectively.

1957 Before the East West Lake was reclaimed, when the Yangtze River was high in May, it poured into the East West Lake from Chenjiaji along the Jingjiang River, and the jacking range could reach Zhuhu and? Li Jiayao, where the water flows backward, stops in 10 or10/month. Second, flood betting is supported by the Yangtze River, so it can't be discharged smoothly, and it also stops in the lake area. Therefore, when the water level is high every year, except for some hills, highlands, Wujiashan (7 1. 1 m above sea level), Baiquan Mountain (67.6 m above sea level), Sleeping Tiger Mountain (56 m above sea level) and the south of the original Hanyi Highway (now Hanyu Railway), it reaches the 52 main dike of Hanjiang River.

1958 reclamation project has three dikes with a total length of 94 kilometers (including 53.57 kilometers of newly built dikes and 40.43 kilometers of heightening), which has changed the original geographical situation and formed an independent inner lake water system. There used to be many lakes and ditches in this area. After years of transformation, the West Lake has disappeared, and most of the old rivers and ports of the East Lake have been transformed into intensive fish ponds.
