New: Ten Scenes of West Lake

Introduction of the Ten Scenes of the New West Lake

More precisely, it should be the Ten Scenes of the New West Lake, which were selected by Hangzhou citizens and people from all over the country in 1985 and determined after repeated consideration by the expert selection committee. They are Yunqi Bamboo Trail, Manlong Guiyu, Tiger Running Mooncherry, Longjing Tea, Jiuxi Tobacco Tree, Wu Shan Tianfeng, Ruandun Huanbi and Huanglong in turn.

1. Yunqi Bamboo Trail is located in Yunqi Dock at the southern foot of Wuyun Mountain. It is a wooded mountain dock landscape with shady bamboos and tinkling streams, which is extremely cool. The 1-kilometer-long Yunqi Bamboo Trail is shaded by bamboos on both sides, and the trail is winding and deep. The gurgling brook flows down the trail, and the charming and beautiful birds are heard from the forest. The whole environment is quiet and cool. Compared with the downtown area, it makes people feel just right and relaxed and refreshing. Traffic conditions: Take bus No.27 and bus No.58 and get off at Longjing Village Station.

2. It's raining all over the West Lake in autumn, enjoying the laurel in the day and the moon at night. Nanshan Manjue Long is the most prosperous place to enjoy Guangxi. Osmanthus fragrans is the city flower of Hangzhou. Osmanthus fragrans was cultivated in the West Lake since the Tang Dynasty. In the early poems of the West Lake, laurel was often used as a poem, which was planted by temples in Lingyin and Tianzhu areas of the North Mountain of the West Lake. It was only after the Ming Dynasty that the osmanthus flowers were enjoyed in autumn in Manjue. Manjuelong, also known as Manjia Lane, is a mountain valley at the southern foot of the South Peak. During Wu Yueshi's reign, there were many small Buddhist temples here, including a Yuanxing Courtyard, which was later changed to Manjue Courtyard. The land was named after the temple, and the flowers were planted by the monks and gradually became a grand view.

Osmanthus fragrans (Osmanthus fragrans), whose scientific name is "osmanthus fragrans", is a small evergreen tree with wet nature. Manjuelong is surrounded by two mountains, with lush forests and rich underground water sources, and the environment is suitable for Osmanthus fragrans growth. The mountain people here take planting osmanthus and selling flowers as their main source of income, which has been handed down from generation to generation, and finally created this "golden millet world". Nowadays, every household is planting osmanthus, in front of and behind the house, inside and outside the village, all over the hillside, on both sides of the road, in clumps, layer by layer, everywhere. Every year around the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are several golden winds and cool rains, and when Qiuyang comes back, osmanthus trees are full of flowers, which spread for ten miles and penetrate the heart, just as the Qing dynasty Zhang Yun 'ao's seven-word quatrain "Pin Gui" says: "The West Lake is clear in August, where is the fragrance? There are golden millet beside Manjuelong, and the wind blows the mountains and autumn. " Osmanthus fragrans include Jingui, Yingui, Dangui, Sijigui, etc. When the flowers are small and large in bloom, such as heavy dew, they often fall with the wind and are as dense as rain beads, and they are bathed in "rain" and fragrant among the trees of osmanthus, which makes them interesting. After Man Longgui Rain was shortlisted for the Ten Scenes of the New West Lake, Manjue Long Village, with the support of relevant departments, held the Golden Autumn Osmanthus Festival of the West Lake in September and October every year. In the Nanshan area, traffic and water were blocked, and the autumn tour of the West Lake added another great affair. Traffic: Take K4 Zoo Station.

3. The tiger runs the scenic spot of the West Lake in Mooncherry, and the lake and the mountain are closely connected. The "emissary" that is closely connected is the lush clear spring in the mountains of Yunnan Mountain, and the rivers are everywhere. Tiger Running Spring, located at the foot of Daci Mountain, is the best spring in the West Lake. The name of Tiger Running Spring began with Buddhist myths and legends. In fact, it is a secular reflection of the development, protection, utilization and even preservation of the famous spring in the West Lake in history, which is closely related to the rise and fall of Buddhists, Taoists and temples.

Hupao Spring is a fissure spring where groundwater flows through joints and gaps of rocks. It permeates and exposes from Shi Ying sandstone, which can't even dissolve ordinary acids. Its water quality is pure, the total salinity is low, and the content of radioactive rare element radon is high. It is a high-quality natural drinking mineral water suitable for drinking and has considerable medical and health care functions. Therefore, it is also called "the West Lake" with Longjing tea.

4. Longjing asks about tea. Longjing, a long hong, is located in Fengling Mountain in the southwest of West Lake. Longjing Temple was built here in the Five Dynasties, and Longjing became a tourist attraction in the Northern Song Dynasty. Su Dongpo, a poet, often recited poems here, and once praised the poem "People say that the mountains are good and the water is good, and there are thousands of hardships under the Jiaolong Lake". According to legend, Longjing is connected with the sea, so it is named because there are dragons in the sea. And the water of Longjing is also very strange. When stirred, there will be a watershed on the water surface, like a hairspring swinging, and then slowly disappear. Longjing spring is clear and sweet, and together with Tiger Run and Yuquan, it is called the three famous springs of West Lake. Longjing tea is more famous. Emperor Qianlong of Qing Dynasty once came here to collect and grow tea, and the old Longjing still has the remains of "eighteen imperial teas". Qianlong also inscribed the five Chinese characters "the best lake and mountain", and designated it as the "Eight Scenes of Longjing", which passed through Xiting, Dixin Pool, a cloud, Fengling, Fiona Fang Temple, Longhongjian, Shenyun Stone and Cuifeng Pavilion. Ten Scenes of the New West Lake rated it as a new scenic spot of "Longjing Tea Asking". Traffic conditions: Take bus No.27 and bus No.58 and get off at Longjing Village Station.

5. Jiuxi is a smoky tree and Jiuxi, commonly known as "Jiuxi Eighteen Rivers". Located in the mountains to the west of West Lake, under the crest of a cockscomb. Longjing in the north and Qiantang River in the south. Originating at the foot of Yangmeiling Mountain in Wengjiashan, it flows into Qianjiang River through Qingwan, Hongfa, Tangjia, Xiaokang, Foshi, Baizhang, Yunqi, Qingtou and Fangjia Jiuxi.

eighteen streams refer to many small streams, with flowing springs gurgling. Jiuxi and Shibajian meet in front of Xixi Restaurant under Bajue Mountain. All the way, the mountains are stacked, the tea gardens are scattered, the peaks turn around, the flowing water is pure, and the mountains are full of birds. Sunny days are delicious, cloudy days are misty. Zhang Li, a poet of the Ming Dynasty, praised: "The spring mountains are misty and the white clouds are low, and the mountains and valleys struggle to flow down the nine streams." Yu Yue, a scholar in the Qing Dynasty, wrote a poem after a tour, saying, "The mountains are overlapping, the roads are winding, and the Dongdong Springs are high and the trees are down." They all tell the infinite scenery of "Jiuxi Smoke Tree". There are new scenic spots such as Linhai Pavilion, Wangjiang Pavilion, Xixi Zhongxi and Artificial Waterfalls. Traffic conditions: K4, 27, 38, 54, Tour 5 and Holiday 5 can be reached.

6. Wu Shan Tianfeng Wu Shan is the tail of the South Mountain of the West Lake extending into the urban area of Hangzhou. In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was the southwest-northeast arc hill formed by dozens of hills of Ziyang, Yunju, Jindi, Qingping, Baolian, Qibao, Stone Buddha, Bao Yue, Camel and Emei, which was collectively called Wu Shan. Wu Shan is not high, but because it is inserted into the urban area, it overlooks the streets in the east, north and northwest, overlooking the Qiantang River and the Pingchou on both sides of the river in the south, and Wu Shan still has the feeling of soaring beyond, and it can win the victory of Hangzhou's rivers, mountains, lakes and cities. Wu Shan is not high in mountains, with a unique theme, abundant forests and mountains extending in all directions. In the Southern Song Dynasty, temples and temples were built more and more. By the Ming and Qing Dynasties, commercial shops crowded in, and temples and pilgrims swarmed everywhere.
