The lakeside is located on the border of the West Lake and the city. It is not only a good place to see the clouds and mountains on three sides of the West Lake, but also a good place to appreciate the rain and fog. Especially in rainy season, walking along the lakeside, misty rain, water and sky. Xizi lake, like Xizi's wind and fog, is more charming and hazy.
It is also the hall and facade of the whole Hangzhou, and the most eye-catching place in the West Lake and even the whole Hangzhou at night. Mingpin street, with its innovative and fashionable architectural style, has won many international architectural design awards. The West Lake music fountain, not far from mingpin street, is worth seeing. It adds a lot of romance to the stage setting of Baoshi mountain, Beishan Road and West Lake.
There is a famous saying in Hangzhou: "clear lake is not as good as rain lake, rain lake is not as good as Moon Lake, Moon Lake is not as good as snow lake", which means that the scenery of West Lake is suitable for all seasons. For a long time, from the "ten sceneries of the West Lake" to "ten sceneries of the new West Lake" in the Southern Song Dynasty, we have mentioned the clear lake, the Moon Lake and the snow lake, but not the rain lake. The name "sunny and rainy lakeside" is not only a reappearance of Su Dongpo's famous sentence "sunny water is good, but also a supplement to the four seasons beauty of the West Lake.".
Many old buildings have been preserved in the lakeside area, mainly houses, hotels, shops, villas and so on after the Republic of China. What is particularly worth mentioning is the architectural form of arcade, which is very interesting.
