East Lake，located in Wuchang district, is rated as one of the top national attractions and is the pride and joy of the People of Wuhan. Many of the residents enjoy walking along the lakeside in spring, swimming in summer, smelling the sweet laurels in autumn and admiring the plum trees in winter. The lake covers 33 square kilometers and stretches as far as the eye can see. Ancient pavilions and pagodas scattered throughout the 34 hills around the lake make this scenic spot historic and impressive. Due to abundant rainfall and sunshine as well as a humid climate, East Lake has rich botanical resources. There are 372 kinds of trees and over 390 varieties of flowers, of which plum blossom and

lotus are the most famous. While wandering between the green hills, clear water and ancient architecture, one can easily feel the essence of “Chu Culture”.

黄鹤楼

座落于长江南岸，最初作为古代作战时的瞭望台，自占有“天下绝景”、“江南三大名楼之首”以及“天下江山第一楼”美誉。历代名人墨客登楼观光，留下了无数动人的故事和名篇佳句，千古流传。其中唐代大文豪李白的《送孟浩然之广陵》最为脍炙人口：“故人西辞黄鹤去，烟花三月下扬州。孤帆远影碧空尽，唯见长江天际流。”黄鹤楼始建于公园三世纪的三国时期，在漫长的岁月里，历经沧桑。现今的黄鹤楼于1986年完工并对外开放，楼姿雄伟为历代黄鹤楼之首。

Yellow Crane Tower, located near the Southern end of Yangtze River Bridge, is one

of China’s most famous towers. Originally used as a watch tower in ancient times, it inspired many ancient poets and artists. Well known poet Li Bai wrote during the Tang Dynasty:“My old friend, bids farewell to me in the west at Yellow Crane Tower. Amid April’s mist and flowers, he goes down to Yangzhou. His distant image disappears in blue emptiness. And all I see is the long river flowing to the edge of the sky.“As the foremost symbol of Wuhan, the original Yellow Crane Tower is said to exist as early as

the 3rd Century. It has been destroyed and rebuilt several times. The current reconstruction was completed in 1986.

古琴台

位于汉阳龟山之西，月湖之畔。始建于北宋，历代毁建多次。现在的主体建筑为单檐歇山顶，前加抱厦式殿堂，堂前汉白玉方形石台，相传是俞伯牙抚琴之处。相传有位名叫俞伯牙的琴师曾在此弹琴，抒发情怀，樵夫钟子期听其志在高山，意在流水，二人遂结知己。后来子期病故，伯牙悲痛不已，将琴摔坏，从此不再弹琴。“知音”典故由此而来，琴台是后人为了纪念这对挚友而建。

Ancient Lute Pavilion is situated west of Tortoise Hill on the shore of Moon Lake Hill in Hanyang District. Originally built in Northern Song Dynasty (960 A.D.-1127 A.D.), it was destroyed and rebuilt several times. There is a popular fable about this pavilion that a person named Yu Boya was fascinated in playing the lute. Wood cutter Zhong Ziqi understood well Yu Boya’s interest. As time passed by, he got to know that Yu boya was a man with high aspirations through his playing, so they became good friends. Afterwards, Zhong Ziqi died of an illness and Yu Boya was so sad that he broke the lute and proclaimed not to play it ever again. The phrase “Bosom Friend” was formed this way. order to commemorate the two friends, the later generations set up the pavilion.
