Spring trip to Qiantang Lake
Bai Juyi
North of Gushan Temple and west of Jia Pavilion, the water surface is initially flat and the clouds are low.
Early orioles are vying for warmth in several places, and new swallows are pecking at the spring mud.
The random flowers are gradually charming the eyes, only the shallow grass can avoid the hooves of horses.
My favorite lake is the east side of the lake, with its green poplar shade and white sand embankment.
