During the long Paleozoic, the area around Dongqian Lake did not change much except for slow ups and downs and local transgression. By the end of Quaternary, there was obvious subsidence, a large number of thick alluvium was deposited, and the periphery developed into sandbars.

Lu Yun (Shilong), a famous scholar in the Western Jin Dynasty, said in his book Answering Che Maoan that yi county "has great lakes in the west, famous mountains in the north, Lin Ze in the south and huge seas in the east". At that time, the county governed Shanshan, and the lake was in the west of the county. It can be seen that Dongqian Lake was called the Great Lake in the Jin Dynasty.
Dongqian Lake was called "Thousand Households" in ancient times, and it was named because there was water on it. Also known as "Wan Jinhu", it was called "West Lake" in the Tang Dynasty because of its advantages. At that time, the county ruled Shanshan, and the lake was named after the county west. In the Song Dynasty, it was called "East Lake", because in the Song Dynasty, Sanjiangkou County ruled and the lake lived in its east, hence the name.
Dongqian Lake has been excavated for 1 for more than 200 years, and it has become more elegant after excavation. During the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty (744), Lu Nanjin, the magistrate of Jixian County, led a crowd to build a dam. Since then, Wang Anshi, Li, Lu Xianzhi and other local officials have cleaned up the border and built more facilities to make it a comprehensive water area.
