Known as the "Little West Lake", the beautiful Tianchi Lake in Huaying Mountain is like a bright pearl, embedded next to Tianchi Town in the northeast of Huaying Mountain. Tianchi is surrounded by mountains, reflecting the blue sky and Shan Lan, and the water and sky are the same; Birds gather in the lake, scales swim, sails are dotted, and fishermen are graceful, which is beautiful. Whenever people come to Tianchi, they are impressed by the beauty and charm here and can't help shouting, "Beauty! Tianchi! " . The old county annals here record that during the Song Dynasty, there was a rainstorm on Huaying Mountain, which washed down the tree and stuffed it in the hole, forming Tianchi Lake.
However, according to the survey of geologists, this kind of record is not scientific. Huaying Mountain rose from Sichuan Basin in the late Jurassic, about 1.4 1 100 million years ago, and then the Himalayan movement in the late Cretaceous, about 25 million years ago, had a strong impact on Huaying Mountain, which became magnificent and Tianchi was born at this time. Tianchi is an alpine lake naturally formed by orogeny, with a surface of more than 3,000 mu and a circumference of about 27 kilometers. There is a crescent-shaped island in the center of the lake, commonly known as "Moon Island", covering an area of more than 300 mu. 1930, Pu Dianjun, president of Lu Bao Comrades' Association of Sichuan Province, wrote "Discussion on Managing the Tianchi Lake in Guang 'an", describing the natural beauty of Tianchi Lake and calling on people from all walks of life to donate money to build a garden. He took the lead in donating nearly ten thousand yuan. Driven by him, he raised more than 10,000 pieces of silver coins. After two years' efforts, he built Tianchi Park, which includes Liu Di, Meiling and Longan. Hundreds of unique and precious flowers and trees have been planted in scenic spots such as Songgang. It's spectacular. After the completion of the park, Zhao Qian, a famous poet and calligrapher, came to Tianchi to enjoy the scenery, wrote the name of Tianchi Park in his own hand, and wrote the eternal couplet of "Tianchi is blue and land". Since then, tourists from all over the world have been pouring in. At that time, Shanghai's Companion Pictorial published a special issue on the beauty of Tianchi, accompanied by Xuanzan's poem: "Crazy people admire Tianchi, and the beauty is intoxicating; The sparkling blue sky is reflected, and the winding bank supports the willows; Even the fishermen in the valley return home by the wind, and the boat island gathers waves: the sunset dyes the water in Yaochi, and the people in Huaihua, Wu Gou, are mountainous. Thus, on this elegant and warm moon island, a beautiful record of "ice lolly painting drunk Tianchi" was left.
