When
autumn comes, the air is full of fragrance of sweet osmanthus. Mother
Nature splashes her rainbow hues across the landscape. Shining more
brightly are the silver moon and golden stars. Winter
brings snow and creates a white wonderland. The blossoms of wintersweet
is the glory of the season. When sunshine sparkles on the snow, many
said, ¡°it is the best time to see the Lady West Lake.¡± Wonders
do not stop at the lake: explore the attractive hills and grotesque
rocks; discover the singing brooks in deep valleys, stop at the elegant
pavilions with spectacular views, and capture on film the marvelous
ancient temples, pagodas and stone carvings, the rewards will be beyond
your wildest expectation.
From generation to generation,
the beauty of West Lake has inspired thousands of poets and painters.
Many like to compare the lake to a famous ancient beauty Xi Shi. As
the poet Su Dongpo once wrote flatteringly, ¡°I would like to compare
West Lake to Xi Shi the ancient beauty, Charming she looks whether
richly made up or only slightly so.¡±
