Xianghu lake Gallery
Xianghu lake isknown as the West Lake’s "sister lake" for its beautiful scenery. It is a lake inXiaoshan District of Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China. It also is one of the cradlesof Chinese civilization.
The site of thecross-lake bridge excavated here is a national protected cultural relic unit.The earliest canoes in the world were excavated here, which pushed Zhejiang’s history of civilization back to eightthousand years ago. The ruins of the Yue King’s City on the top of the hills by Xianghu lakeis more than 2,500 years old. It was an important military fortress whereGoujian stationed troops to fight the Wu State’s army. It witnessed the story of the Yue State’s King who “slept on the brushwood and tasted the gall”. It’s by far the best preserved ancient city wall ruins. Xianghu lake isthe hometown of He Zhizhang, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty. Li Bai, Lu You,Wen Tianxiang, Liu Ji and other famous poets all left eternal poems here.
