Yangzhou Slender West Lake scenic spots are introduced as follows:

Dahongqiao is one of the 24 scenic spots in Qing Dynasty. It was built in the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty, spanning Baoan Lake. The original bridge was a wooden red fence, hence the name Hongqiao. During the Qianlong period of the Qing dynasty, it was rebuilt as a stone bridge, such as Changhong Wobo, renamed Hongqiao. Now it has been rebuilt into a 7.6-meter-wide 3-hole low-slope Qingshiqiao.

The dike is more than 600 meters long, with three steps and one peach, five steps and one willow, and peach and willow alternate. Every year in March, the spring flowers are brilliant and colorful, and the willows dance and smoke. According to legend, Yang Di Emperor Yang Guangwei went to Yangzhou and ordered the excavation of the North-South Grand Canal. After river excavation, Yu Shiqi, a bachelor of Hanlin, suggested planting willows on both sides of the river to provide shade and protect the dam. The emperor planted a willow with his own hands and named it "Yang". Later, people called it "Liu Yang".
