Evening Bell Ringing at Nanping Hill Evening Bell Ringing at Nanpinjg Hill, it is one of the “Ten Views of West Lake” with the longest history. In 972 A.D. a famous temple, named as “Xingjiao Temple”was built on the Nanpin Hill. After that, a few more small temples were built around it. Therefore, Nanpin Hill was locally called as “Buddhism Kingdom Hill”. Formed of limestone, the Nanping Hill contains lots of caves and cavities. The shape of the hill is just like a painted screen. Therefore, when the bell was rung in the evening, its sonorous sound echoed through the caves and cavities, even reached as far as the other shore of the West Lake. And then the Ge Hill locating there sent back a big echo over the lake.

Lingering Snow on the Broken Bridge (断桥残雪)10. Twin Peaks Piercing the Clouds (双峰插云)"Ripping water shimmering on sunny day,Plain or gaily decked out like Xizi;Misty mountains shrouded the rain；West Lake is always alluring."These are the words used by the celebrated Song Dynasty poet Su Dongpo (960-1127) to describe Hangzhou's West Lake. The West Lake scenic zone lies in Hangzhou City in northern Zhejiang Province, encompassing an area of 6 square kilometers. West Lake is an elliptical landscape with a water surface of 5.66 square kilometers, and a circumference of 15km. it is not a big lake in terms of its geographical area, but it has a long history and full of sensational legends.History of West LakeOriginally a shallow sea inlet, due to the laying down of silt, the six square kilometers (1483 acres) of water eventually became today's West Lake. In middle of the Zhenyuan era (785-804), Tang Dynasty, poet Bai Juyi came to Hangzhou as governor. Already as an accomplished poet, his deeds at Hangzhou made him a great governor. He realized that the farmland nearby depended on the water of West Lake, but due to negligence of former governors, the old dyke had collapsed, the water level of West Lake dried out, and the local farmers suffered severe drought. He ordered the construction of a stronger and taller dyke, with a dam to control the flow of water, and thus solved the drought problem. The livelihood of local people of Hangzhou improved over the following years. Now that Bai Juji had more leisure time to enjoy the beauty of West Lake, he visited West Lake almost every day. He ordered the construction of a causeway connecting the Broken Bridge with the Solitary Hill, to facilitate walking on foot, instead of depending on boat. Then he planted peach trees and willowstrees along the dyke, making it a beautiful landmark of West Lake. This causeway was later named Bai Di Causeway in Bai Juyi's honour.Over two hundred years later, at the beginning of Song Dynasty's Yuanyou era (1086-1094), another great poet, Su Shi (Su Dongpo), came to Hangzhou as governor. By that time, the farmers suffered drought again, due to overgrowth of the weeds at the bottom of the lake clogging the irrigation ducts. He ordered dredging of the lake and piled up all the mud into another causeway, in the style of Bai Causeway, but much wider and nearly three times as long, he also planted willow trees along its banks. This causeway was later named after him as the Su Causeway. There are six bridges along the 2.6 km Su Causeway. "Spring Dawn on the Su Causeway" is one of the attractions at the West Lake.Main Scenic places of AttractionsAn old Chinese saying declares, "There is heaven above, Suzhou and Hangzhou below." This is most evident in the West Lake area -- the effective, if not geographic, center ofHangzhou. The famous scenic spots of West Lake include: Su Causeway, and Bai Causeway, which have partitioned the Lake into inner, outer and back lakes, Gushan (The Solitary Hill), Xiaoyingzhou (Small Fairy Island), Huxin Ting (Mid-lake Pavilion), Ruangong Dun (A mount after a provincial governor Ruangong), etc.. In combination with the surrounding hills and streams, they make up the West Lake beautiful scenery. It is, also covered in luxuriant vegetation, is dotted with myriad of halls, towers, terraces, pavilions, pagodas, grottoes and temples, which were barely visible under the dense foliage of surrounding woods. The lake is embraced by emerald hills covered with lush forests, grotesque rocks, gullies and intriguing streams. They are so colorful and picturesque!1. First is the Spring Dawn at Su Causeway, which is a thin strip of land nearly three kilometers long, covered with peach and weeping willow trees. In spring, with the lakeside sparkling in the morning dew, birds cheerfully chirping among swaying willow branches, the scent of peach blossoms wafting through th e air, you‘ll question whether you're in the midst of paradise.2. Then comes the Lotus in the Breeze at Crooked Courtyard.This typical West Lake scene has earned its fame since the Southern Song Dynasty, when the lakeside area with an abundant growth of lotus off its shores was known as Crooked Courtyard, and was the location of a brewery. People said the smell of lotus flowers and wine blended by the cool lake breezes was intoxicating. Nowadays the brewery is gone, and the area has been turned into a big park, but plenty of lotus plants still bloom off its shores. They stand gracefully erect in the lake, as if they knew they had visitors coming to admire their beauty.3. The next listed on the ten scenic itineraries is the Autumn Moon on Calm Lake. At the western end of Bai Causeway is located a lakeside park which houses a stone tablet bearing the etched calligraphy of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, which reads: "Autumn Moon on Calm Lake". The lake is a special place to appreciate the moon and the effect of moonlight on the land. The moon seems especially bright over the waters. The hills look purplish bathed in the moonlight. The best time for nighttime viewing is on Mid-Autumn Day.4. Leifeng Pagoda is another renowned scenic spot in Hangzhou. Originally built in the 10th century, Leifeng Pagodaused to stand in front of Jingxi Temple on Nanping Mountain; though failed to stand the test of time, the Pagoda collapsed in early 1900s. In 2002, Leifeng Pagoda was reconstructed; then comes back the typical Sunset Glow over Leifeng Pagoda, one of the ten charms of West Lake, as the Pagoda looks especially majestic when surrounded by the golden hues of the setting sun. With combination of a traditional aesthetic style and modern architecture techniques, Leifeng Pagoda affords a view of West Lake in its entirety.In recent years, the people of Hangzhou have selected "Ten New Scenes of the West Lake," as well as built a few new attractions – for example a tea museum, a silk museum, etc. The ten new scenes are beautiful, and the new attractions will leave you with a greater appreciation for the area‘s famous commodities. But if you only have a day, it‘s tough to argue with the tried and true.The West Lake is like a shining pearl inlaid on the vast land of China, with beautiful scenery, a multitude of historical sites, brilliant cultural relics, and a profusion of native products. Legend has it that the West Lake was a heavenly jewel fallen to earth. Pragmatists insist that it is a mere lagoon on Hangzhou'swestern fringe. In any case, West Lake is both a great tourist attraction and a high inspiration for artistic creations.。
西湖十景英文介绍
西湖十景英文介绍West Lake, located in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, is renowned for its stunning natural beauty and rich cultural heritage. With its picturesque scenery and historical sites, West Lake has been regarded as one of the top attractions in China. The lake is dotted with numerous islands, pagodas, and temples, creating a poetic and tranquil atmosphere that has inspired countless poets, artists, and scholars throughout history.One of the Ten Scenes of West Lake is called "Three Pools Mirroring the Moon" or "Santan Yinyue." This refers to three pagodas standing on the lake, representing the reflection of the moon in water. The three pagodas, named Yue Fei Temple, Reflection Pavilion, and Pagoda at the Southern End respectively, were built during the Southern Song Dynasty. The sight of the moon's reflection in the water, along with the stunning pagodas, creates a mystical and enchanting panorama, especially during the Mid-Autumn Festival when the moon is believed to be at its brightest.Another famous scene in West Lake is "Orioles Singing in the Willows" or "Liulang Wenying." This scene portrays a poetic image of orioles singing among the willow trees. The orioles, known for their melodious songs, are a symbol of joy and happiness in Chinese culture. The willow trees, with their graceful branches swaying in the breeze, add to the tranquility and beauty of the scene. It is said that the orioles' songs and the willow trees create a harmonious melody that soothes the soul and brings inner peace."Breeze-ruffled Lotus at Quyuan Garden" or "Quyuan Fenghe" is another must-see scene in West Lake. The Quyuan Garden, named after the famous poet Qu Yuan, is adorned with blooming lotus flowers. The lotus, known as the "flower of purity" in Chinese culture, symbolizes perfection, beauty, and spiritual enlightenment. As the breeze gently blows across the lake, the lotus leaves sway and the flowers dance, creating a mesmerizing sight. The scene of breeze-ruffled lotus is particularly captivating during the summer months when the lotus flowers are in full bloom.One of the most iconic scenes in West Lake is "Melting Snow at Broken Bridge" or "Duanqiao Canxue." This scene takes its name from the melting snow on the Broken Bridge during springtime. The Broken Bridge, originally built during the Northern Song Dynasty, divides the lake into the eastern and western parts. The view of the snow melting and the water flowing down the bridge represents the transition from winter to spring, symbolizing renewal and new beginnings. The scene is not only visually stunning but also carries a profound cultural significance. "Leifeng Pagoda in Evening Glow" or "Leifeng Xizhao" is a scene that showcases the radiant glow of the setting sun on the Leifeng Pagoda. The pagoda, located on the south shore of West Lake, was originally built in the 10th century and later collapsed. The current pagoda is a reconstruction based on ancient records. When the sun sets, the pagoda is bathed in a golden hue, creating a breathtakingly beautiful sight. The combination of the pagoda, the lake, and the sunset offers a picturesque view that is often depicted in traditional Chinese paintings.These are just a few of the Ten Scenes of West Lake, each with its unique charm and allure. The other scenes include "Viewing Fish at Flower Harbor," "Autumn Moon over Calm Lake," "Evening Bell at Nanping Hill," "Two Peaks Piercing the Clouds," "Evening Glow at Sudi Causeway," and "Dawn on the Su Causeway." Together, these scenes capture the essence of West Lake's natural beauty and cultural heritage.Visiting West Lake is like stepping into a realm of serenity and enchantment. It offers a perfect blend of nature and culture, where visitors can immerse themselves in the breathtaking landscapes while exploring the historical sites. Whether it's admiring the moon's reflection, listening to the songs of orioles, or marveling at the blooming lotus flowers, West Lake promises an unforgettable experience for all who venture there.。

This picture was taken in the evening, Broken bridge presented to us another nice at night.
Most notably in the summer is lotus, hundreds of varieties of lotus are planted in the park. Date back to the Southern Song Dynasty ,there was a distillery . Every summer, lotus’ fragrance and the aroma of wine spreads far away ,when the wind blows gently. So it is a good place to spend your long hot summer.
In the spring, you can enjoy the songs of orioles under the willow woods. When summer comes, XiXi wetland is a good place to avoid summer heat. And in the autumn, Sweet Osmanthus Rain at Manjuelong Village is a good place to enjoy the Sweet-scented osmanthus and Green Tea. In winter, the Lingyin Temple is a good choice. Anyhow, no matter when you come, here have a place that can give you a good memory. So, if you book a ticket to Hangzhou now, Hangzhou will not let you down. That is all .Thank you

Lotus Flowers in the Breezing Winding Courtyard Quyuan Park (Crooked Courtyard) is situated near the mouth of Jinshajian Stream, the biggest natural water supply into the West Lake. In the South Song Dynasty a royal wine workshop was set up here. In the lake next to the winery stood a large area of lotuses waggling and dancing a little bit intoxicatingly in summer breezes. Visitors felt wonderful with both the scenery and wine while aromas of lotus flowers and wine were wafting in the air. The spot got its fame as one of the top ten best attractions in that dynasty and has kept its charm in colors and odors since then.
