Lihu Lake has a long history in the past. Because Fan Li built a lake embankment around it, the history of aquaculture and planting has a long history, which did not change until the Qing Dynasty. Now, the observation Lihu reclamation area has been connected with Fanban. At that time, there were not only fish and turtles in Lihu Lake, but also "aquatic crops" on the water surface, that is, "deep water water water chestnut", which was neither deep nor shallow. "This is the poet's true portrayal of the scenery of Jiangnan water town, and so is Li Lake. Dongling, Zizai Lake and Lihu Lake in the west of the lake are all full of flowers.
Please look at a poem written by Zhao Jingcheng, a Ming Dynasty man, entitled "The Stone Tomb".
The battle between the tiger and the dragon is slim, leaving Li Lake in Zhong Qing.
Three spring flowers and willows are sad and cold, singing to the sunset.
The next country is Changyang, full of wear, and the empty mountains and shallow grass are half-hung.
Outside the poor little marsh, no one is still fragrant.
Judging from this poem, the word "lakeside" is a general term. From the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Fan Li opened Li Lake to plant lotus flowers until the early Qing Dynasty. Xi Shi likes to watch: "The next day, the lotus leaves are infinitely blue, and the lotus flowers reflect different colors in the sun." Love to play with that: "You can't make a garden if you climb the lotus." Zhao Jing knew this like the back of his hand, so he could write the poem "It smells good without lotus leaves".
Fish and turtles are raised in Lihu Lake, and geese and ducks are raised on the lake, not only to appreciate flowers, but also to eat lotus roots and wash rice, reflecting the beauty of flowers and the moon. It is wider and more beautiful than the moon pool on Lingyan Mountain in Guanwa Palace. Surrounding the lake is versatile, in fact, its use value is better than Huanshaxi, the hometown of Stone.
Between today's Lihu Village and Bian Xi Village, this is a narrow area of Lihu Lake, which was called "boating dragon" in ancient times. Since ancient times, there has been a special boat to ferry people to Fan's home by the stream, which can also be used as a "general boat". The osprey is a sailor. As long as General Fan gives the order, the well-trained "sailors" dive into the water one by one to fish, which is done by the Osprey. If you want to fish with a net, you only need to pull the net on both sides of the lake and trawl horizontally under the water. You can pull the net to one end of the lake after lifting your eyes. This long "Hulu Lake" has excellent fishing conditions.
If Shi sits on the boat, he can freely go into the lotus to pick lotus and ling for fun, and Lihu Lake can compete with Qu Yuan in Hangzhou West Lake.
Mourong, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, had been to Lihu village and saw Lihu at the same time, so he wrote the poem "Crossing Lihu Lake":
East Lake is full of smoke and waves, and sumo is autumn and cold at night.
The fragrance falls outside the wind, and the shadow in the moon dances away from Luan.
Affectionate Yuan Yin frequently moved seats, and there is a saying that Qiao Xian is alone.
Several times, the curtain is opposite, and the poem is endless.
Nowadays, with the passage of time, the original features of Lihu Lake have disappeared under the wheel of historical development, and a brand-new Lihu Village has appeared in front of people.
