On the history, scenic spots and problems of Huizhou West Lake

National key scenic spots, national AAAA-level tourist attractions, and one of the first provincial-level scenic spots in Guangdong Province. Located in Huizhou City, Guangdong Province, formerly known as Hufeng Lake, it was once as famous as Hangzhou West Lake and Yingzhou West Lake in history. Yang Wanli, a poet in the Song Dynasty, once said in a poem: "The three lakes are the same in autumn, Qiantang Shui Ying and Luofu", which is the Three Lakes. There are historical records of "three wonders in the sea, the famous West Lake, one in Huizhou" and "36 West Lakes in China, only Hangzhou in Huizhou". Of course, there is another important reason why these three West Lakes are famous, that is, it was once the place where Su Dongpo, a great scholar in the Song Dynasty, was relegated. "There are West Lakes everywhere on Dongpo", and Su Dongpo left a scenic spot for the West Lake, which is more elegant because of Dongpo. When evaluating the West Lake, people call it "the West Son of Wugong" and "the West Son of Zhuluo Village". Dai, a celebrity of Hangzhou School in Qing Dynasty, said: "The West Lake has its wonders, and this (Hu Hui) wins in twists and turns." All these show the characteristics of Huizhou West Lake.

The West Lake was originally a depression washed out by rivers and mountains such as Hengcha, Luo Tian, water curtain and mountain. After the diversion of Xizhijiang River, the riverbed became a lake. Surrounded by mountains in the west and south, Dongjiang River is in the north. The scenic spot takes landscape resources as the main body and integrates natural landscape and human landscape. The tourist area is 3.2 square kilometers, of which the water surface 1.68 square kilometers. The depth of the lake varies, generally around 1.5 meters, with individual water depths of 3 to 4 meters.
