brief introduction

Hangzhou West Lake Pavilion: located in the center of the West Lake, it is one of the "four famous pavilions in China". It is smaller than the moon in Santan. Greater than Ruan gongdun, they are collectively known as "three islands in the lake" - the pavilion in the center of the lake is called "Penglai", and the moon in Santan is called "Yingzhou". Ruan gongdun is the "Abbot". However, it has a very long history. It is the earliest built island among the three islands of the West Lake. In the Qing Dynasty, it was listed as one of the "Eighteen sceneries of Qiantang". In Song Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty, there was Huxin temple, which collapsed later. In the Ming Dynasty, sun Meng, the magistrate, built the Zhenlu Pavilion and later changed it to Qingxi Pavilion, which was the predecessor of Huxin Pavilion.

When you look at the pavilion in the center of the lake, you can see the light of the lake. The mountains are like green screens. Among the 18 sceneries of the West Lake, it is called "pingting in the center of the lake". Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty inscribed a plaque on the pavilion, which read "watching all kinds of things in silence", and a couplet, which read "the lake is far away, the mountains are deep, and the water is deep". There is also a stone tablet in the south of the island, which bears the title of "insect 2", which is also said to be written by Emperor Qianlong. This is to remove the outer part of the word "Fengyue" and take the meaning of "Fengyue boundless". This kind of word game is a chronic disease of literati. It seems that even the emperor can't escape from vulgarity.

It is worth mentioning that Hu Lai wrote the inscription on the pillars of the pavilion in the middle of the lake: "the four seasons sing songs, and there are still poor people mourning the moon night; the six bridges of flowers and willows grow mulberry and hemp in the void land.". Although this inscription is a bit of a spectacle, it is not necessarily bad for tourists to read it. " In front of the pavilion, there is a stone tablet of "insect 2" written by Emperor Qianlong, which is exactly the word left after the traditional Chinese "Fengyue" is removed from the surrounding strokes, implying the boundless meaning of Fengyue here. The view from the center of the lake is listed as one of the 18 sceneries of the West Lake in the Qing Dynasty. The island is surrounded by water and the water is surrounded by mountains. When you are in the pavilion in the center of the lake, you really feel like you are in a "paradise".
