Historical culture

Huizhou West Lake was a wilderness in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Longxing Temple was built near the lake in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It was renamed Kaiyuan Temple in the Tang Dynasty. During the reign of Tang Zhongzong, Sizhou Pagoda was built on the West mountain. When Zhang Zhao lived in Sheren Lane in Huizhou in the Northern Song Dynasty, he named the lake Langguan Lake. One of the earliest good sentences describing the West Lake is Yu Jing's sentence of "Heavy Mountains, Fuling Ridges, Hidden Yingyan Valley, Changxi Belt Pan, Lake Light Photography". In the three years of Zhiping in Northern Song Dynasty (1066), Chen Sheng of Zhizhou, Huizhou, harnessed the West Lake, calling it "Toyota Lake" because of the construction of Pinghu embankment, Gongbei Bridge, Guyu Pavilion and Huguangting Pavilion on Diancuizhou, and the cultivation of fish and irrigation fields.

In the first year of Shaosheng in the Northern Song Dynasty (1094), Su Shi was demoted to Huizhou by the court for resettlement. He spent three years in Huizhou with his wife, concubine, Wang Yun and son Su. During this period, he often visited the West Lake and wrote many poems chanting the landscape of the West Lake. In the second year of Shaosheng (1095), he wrote "Five Poems of the River and Moon" which was the earliest poem with the theme of Huizhou West Lake. Among them, there are some famous phrases such as "A Gengshan Tuyue, a Jade Pagoda lying on a small hill". In the same month, he called Fenghu the West Lake in his poem Giving Xinxiu, which is the earliest source of the name "West Lake". Huizhou West Lake is also famous for its poems and lyrics spread by Su Shi.
