Xihu Park of Fuzhou

Located in the northwest of Fuzhou, it has a long history and is a famous scenic spot in Fuzhou.

In the third year of Taikang (282), the princess built a sub-city, the East Lake and the West Lake were cut, and the streams on the east, west and north sides gathered here to irrigate the surrounding farmland. In the 11th year of Tang Zhenyuan (795), the South Lake was observed. In the Five Dynasties, King Min expanded the city, connecting the West Lake with the South Lake, and the Yangtze River with the Minjiang River. His son proclaimed himself the emperor and built the Crystal Palace near the West Lake, which is a place for singing and dancing. Also in his own residence, he built a complicated road from the inner city through the Crystal Palace outside the city, so the West Lake became his royal garden. In the fourth year of Song Dynasty (1 177), Anfu ambassadors from Fuzhou and Fujian established pavilions on the lake. Since then, the West Lake has gradually become a tourist attraction, and eight scenic spots of the West Lake have been named.

Bell tower and drum tower

The monk who knocks the bell must recite the Buddha every time he rings the bell 108 times. Strangely, the temple doesn't play the five-watch clock. According to legend, this is Longtan, and the monk borrowed land from Dragon to build a temple, saying that it was returned after the fifth watch. After the completion of the first five-watch, it was stormy and the temple corner collapsed, so it had to be bound by imperial edict. Since then, I haven't played for five minutes.
