Poyang Lake-the largest freshwater lake

Poyang Lake was called Pengze in ancient times, with an area of 3,914 square kilometers. It is the largest freshwater lake in China. It receives the water from the five rivers of Jiangxi, Fuzhou, Guangxi, Rao and Xiujiang, and flows down to the Yangtze River. It is wide in the south and narrow in the north, like a huge gourd tied to the waist of the Yangtze River. It flows into the Yangtze River more than the Yellow River and Huaihe River every year.

Poyang Lake has vast smoke waves and beautiful aquatic plants. There are a large number of precious fish roaming in the Yangtze River basin, and many precious birds inhabit here every year, which makes the scenery of Poyang Lake more pleasant. Not only that, Poyang Lake has been a gathering place for literati since ancient times, and many poets have left immortal poems here, such as Wang Bo's "Fishing boats sing late, ringing the coast of Peng Li" and Su Dongpo's "The mountains are grey, the water is boundless, and the elder sister-in-law and the younger sister-in-law are in the middle of the river", all depicting the scenic spots of Poyang Lake. The famous scenic spots of Poyang Lake are Shi Zhongshan, Dagushan, Nanshan and Luoxing Lake.

Dongting Lake

Dongting Lake is the second largest freshwater lake in China, but the amount of water entering the lake is 3 times that of Poyang Lake and 1 times that of Taihu Lake. There is a lush and evergreen hill in the center of the lake called Dongting Mountain, hence the name Dongting Lake. The total area of the lake area is about 18, square kilometers. Hunan Province is in the south and Hubei Province is in the north. During the flood, Wang Yang was like the sea, with an area of 3,9 square kilometers and a volume of 12 billion cubic meters. Xiangjiang River, Zishui River, Yuanshui River and Lishui River meet in the south, and Songzi River, Taiping River, Lotus Pond and Diaoxian River connect with the Yangtze River in the north, and the lake finally flows into the Yangtze River in Chenglingji, Yueyang. It is like a natural reservoir, holding four waters, swallowing the Yangtze River, regulating floods, and controlling Chu and Wu.

What places does Dongting Lake include? The more authoritative division is that the scope includes Yueyang, Yiyang, Changde, Changsha, Xiangtan, Zhuzhou and Jingzhou, Hubei. Dongting Lake area is divided into "pure lake area" and "Sishuiweilu area", among which the whole Changsha city belongs to Sishuiweilu area. Among the three cities of Yueyang, Yiyang and Changde reported in "Around Dongting Lake", Miluo, Taojiang, Taoyuan and Linli do not belong to the pure lake area, but also belong to the tail zone, while Pingjiang in Yueyang, Anhua in Yiyang and Shimen in Changde do not belong to the Dongting Lake area.

Dongting Lake is not only beautiful, but also known as the land of fish and rice. The lakeside is rich in rice and the lake is rich in fish and shrimp. It has been a famous producer of freshwater fish in China since ancient times. Li Shangyin, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote a poem "Fish in Dongting": "Fish in Dongting can be picked up, but it's even worse if it's not fake. If the noise is like mosquitoes before the rain, it will be like flies after the autumn. " It can be seen that there are many fish. 4% of Hunan's commercial grain, 9% of commercial cotton, 5% of commercial oil and 7% of commercial fish come from Dongting Lake. Dongting Lake wetland area accounts for 1/4 of subtropical wetlands in China. The output of ramie in Dongting Lake area accounts for 1/3 of the whole country. Freshwater pearl culture has been developed in Dongting Lake since 1969. At present, the annual output accounts for 8% of the whole country and more than half of the world. The little white goose, listed in the "International Red Book of Endangered Species", mainly overwinters in Dongting Lake area in winter.

Taihu Lake is in the south of Jiangsu Province, adjacent to Zhejiang Province, and is the third freshwater lake in China. The lake is 3.33 meters above sea level, the deepest is 48 meters, and the area is 2,338 square kilometers. Taihu Lake was called Zhenze and Tuju District in ancient times, also known as Lize and Five Lakes. It is formed by plugging ancient bay with sediment weir in the lower reaches of Yangtze River and Qiantang River. Taihu Lake was finally injected into the Yangtze River.

There are 48 large and small islands in the lake, together with the peaks and peninsulas along the lake, which are called "72 peaks". Dongting Dongshan, Xishan, Maji Mountain, Sanshan and Jingtou are the most famous works, forming a magnificent natural picture with mountains outside the mountain, lakes in the lake, continuous mountains and overlapping levels. Along the lake, there are famous Wuxi landscapes, Suzhou gardens, ancient Wu monuments and Yixing cave world, forming a famous Taihu Lake scenic spot at home and abroad. It is a national key scenic spot.

Taihu Lake, called "Zhenze" in ancient times, also known as "Lize", is located in the center of the fertile triangle of Shanghai, Nanjing and Hangzhou. It is a lake formed by silting up ancient bays in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and Qiantang River. Around it, there are stars holding the moon, such as Dianling Lake Group, Yangcheng Lake Group and Taoge Lake Group. The criss-crossing rivers, rivers, streams and blasphemies connect Taihu Lake with the surrounding lakes and lakes, forming a distinctive water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

Taihu Lake is known as "36, hectares, surrounded by 8 Li", but its actual area is affected by factors such as siltation and man-made land reclamation, and it has changed a lot since its formation. Today, Taihu Lake borders Wuxi in the north, Huzhou in the south, Yixing in the west and Suzhou in the east, with a water area of about 2,25 square kilometers.

Hongze Lake

Hongze Lake is located in the west of Hongze County, Jiangsu Province, and developed on the alluvial plain in the middle reaches of Huaihe River. It was originally a depression with poor drainage, and then it accumulated water into many small lakes. In the Qin and Han dynasties in China, they were called "Fuling" lakes. Among them, Hongze Lake is the largest, with an area of 269 square kilometers, making it the fourth largest freshwater lake among the five largest freshwater lakes in China.

Hongze lake was called broken kettle pond in ancient times. In 616 AD, Emperor Yangdi went down to the south of the Yangtze River, and it was a drought at that time, so it was very difficult to sail. When the dragon boat passed the broken kettle pond, it suddenly rained heavily, and the boat went smoothly. Emperor Yang-ti was overjoyed, thinking that Hong Fu was in heaven and his kindness was mighty, so he renamed the broken kettle pond Hongzepu. Hongze Lake began to be named in Tang Dynasty.

The whole shape of Hongze Lake is like a swan with its head held high and its wings flying. Because Hongze Lake is developed in the depression of alluvial plain, its bottom is shallow and flat, and its bank slope is low and gentle. The bottom of the lake is 4-8 meters higher than that of the eastern Subei Plain, making it a "suspended lake". Before harnessing the Huaihe River, Hongze Lake was covered with Wang Yang, which had neither a fixed shore nor a certain shape. With reference to the harnessing of Huaihe River, Hongze Lake was also harnessed. At present, the eastern levee in the lake area is 5 meters wide and 67 kilometers long, almost all of which are made of basalt strips. Looking from a distance, it looks like a Great Wall on the water across the lake. This long dike not only protects thousands of fertile fields and thousands of villages and towns in the downstream area, but also provides convenience for shipping, power generation and irrigation by retaining rich water sources.

Hongze Lake is a shallow lake, with a water depth of less than 4 meters and a maximum water depth of 5.5 meters. The source of lake water, except atmospheric precipitation, mainly depends on river water. The rivers flowing into Hongze Lake are concentrated in the west of the lake, including Huaihe River, Suihe River, Bianhe River and Anhe River. Sanhe and Subei irrigation canal are the main rivers that Hongze Lake discharges into the Yangtze River and into the sea.

Hongze Lake is rich in aquatic resources. There are nearly 1 species of fish in the lake, mainly carp, crucian carp, bighead carp, green carp, grass and silver carp. The crabs in Hongze Lake are also famous far and near. In addition, the aquatic plants in Hongze Lake are very famous. Reed is almost all over the lake, and even ships are difficult to sail in lush places. Lotus root, Gordon Euryale seed and water chestnut are well-known in history, and there was a saying that "the head of a chicken and water chestnut are half a year's food".

Chaohu Lake, named Jiaohu Lake in ancient times, is located in the southern suburb of Hefei, spanning three counties and cities of Hefei, Chaohu Lake and Lujiang River, and is one of the five largest freshwater lakes in China. The lake is surrounded by mountains, with vast smoke waves and white sails, and the scenery is charming, just like a precious mirror embedded in the land of Jianghuai.

The rivers and ditches around Chaohu Lake are criss-crossed, and the peaks and peaks of the seats are staggered, with a myriad of postures. The lakes and mountains complement each other and the scenery is beautiful. There are three hot springs, namely Bantang, Xiangquan and Tang Chi, four national forest parks, namely Taihu Mountain, Jilong Mountain, Yefu Mountain and Tianjing Mountain, which are called "four jadeites", and five caves, namely Xianren, Ziwei, Wangqiao, Huayang and Boshan. This natural combination of wonders, dotted along the coast of Lake Chaohu, is like "stars holding the moon", forming a wonderful three-dimensional landscape painting! Chaohu Lake has a long history and a rich culture. Many famous politicians, military strategists and literati in history have left many places of interest and splendid poems here, which complement each other with lakes and mountains and merge into a unique landscape. At present, more than 1 scenic spots and scenic spots have been built and opened in the whole region, and special tourism projects such as "Chaohu Lake Water Romantic Tour", "Lake Island Recreation Tour", "Hot Spring Health Holiday Tour" and "Peony Flower Watching Festival" have been grandly launched.
