Hangzhou's Three Pools Mirroring the Moon is like a pearl in the West Lake. The lake water gently ripples, the moonlight is like silk, and the three small pagodas stand quietly in the heart of the lake, as if they are messengers traveling through time. Whenever the moonlight shines, the reflections of the pagodas on the lake surface seem to mirror the moon in the sky, creating a scene that resembles a poetic painting. Walking by the lake, with a gentle breeze brushing your face, the moonlight intertwines with the pagoda reflections, and your soul seems to settle, resonating harmoniously with nature. The beauty of the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon not only comes from the clarity of the lake water and the reflections of the pagodas but also from the tranquility and harmony that have transcended thousands of years. It is one of the most representative sceneries of Hangzhou's West Lake, offering endless imagination and profound spiritual cleansing.

🌟Highlights: The Three Pools Mirroring the Moon is one of the Ten Scenes of West Lake in Hangzhou, China. It is the largest island in West Lake, covering an area of 60,000 square meters, also known as Xiaoyingzhou. There are three stone pagodas on the southern lake of the island, each 2.5 meters high, with 2 meters above the water surface. They consist of a base, a cylindrical body, a canopy, a hexagonal pavilion, and a gourd-shaped top. The pagoda body is spherical and hollow, with five small round holes around it, decorated with relief patterns. The stone pagodas were originally boundary pagodas built by Su Shi in the Song Dynasty and were rebuilt in the Ming Dynasty, evolving into landscape pagodas. On clear nights, the lanterns lit inside the pagodas reflect the moonlight, creating a particularly beautiful scene, known as 'One moon mirrored in each of the three pools, one wave casting a circular shadow'. 🕐Opening hours: Open all year round, daily from 07:00 to 18:00 Ticket price🎫🎫🎫: 45.00 yuan (including West Lake boat ride and Three Pools Mirroring the Moon Island ticket)

I found the origin of the character 'Hang', and you can also watch the most beautiful sunset. Surprisingly, I found the origin of the character 'Hang' in Hangzhou here, and you can also watch the most beautiful sunset. The right half of the Hangzhou logo, the character 'Kang', implies one of Hangzhou's famous attractions, 'Three Pools Mirroring the Moon'. Also known as Xiaoyingzhou, as one of the ten sceneries of West Lake, it is known as 'the best scenery of West Lake'. The origin of 'Three Pools Mirroring the Moon' is also extremely elegant. Three stone towers are like three gourds growing on the sparkling water. And there are five evenly distributed small round holes. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, people light candles in the round holes of the stone towers, paste the holes with thin paper, and many small moons will be reflected in the water.
