"Revisiting the West Embankment of the Summer Palace"

The West Embankment is shown with six bridges and thousands of new willows slanting in the wind. Mountain peach blossoms accompany early spring, and elm leaves and plum blossoms bloom in season. A pear tree looks like a pile of snow, and two orchids startle two trees. The swans are falling by the lake happily, but the poetry is soaring to the sky!

"Feelings of Visiting the West Embankment of the Summer Palace"

The mist is vast and the jade is cold, and the incense from the Buddhist pavilion rises from the railing in the west. The copper cow looks at the clouds and trees in the distance, and the stone square waits for the water to spread. The moon reed reflects the thin willow silk in the water, and the shade of the trees is deep and the strange rocks remain. The boat trip to the West Embankment is popular, and the Su Embankment in Hangzhou is full of joy.

The West Causeway is a long causeway in Kunming Lake in the Summer Palace that meanders from northwest to southeast. There are six bridges on the West Lake Su Causeway, and six bridges are also built on the West Causeway. Even the willow trees planted along the Sudi embankment have been replicated on the west embankment of Kunming Lake. To this day, there are still 19 willow trees from that year on the enchanting Xidi. But the difference is that Sudi is straight, while Xidi is winding. There are also mountain peach trees planted on the West Embankment. Whenever they are in full bloom, the peach blossoms complement the ancient buildings and create a picturesque scene.
