Qiandao Lake scenic spots include Mei Feng Guandao, Longshan Island and Qingxin Island. It is a place with fresh air and beautiful environment. There is the nature you want to feel and the lake you want to touch. Let's go to Qiandao Lake for fun.
The impression of Jiangnan is like a graceful woman, neither too slow nor too slow. The Qingshiban Road is a historical and cultural deposit. When it comes to Hangzhou, it is almost a household name. When it comes to Qiandao Lake, at least 5% of Chinese people have heard of it, but when it comes to the Lion City, relatively few people know it. For the Lion City, the only impression comes from a group of pictures of ancient underwater cities sleeping at the bottom of Qiandao Lake published by National Geographic. It is shocking that many archways, houses and courtyard walls are still standing and not rotting. The sun shines through the water like a Buddha's light covering them, lifelike and vivid. In 1959, in order to build Xin 'anjiang Hydropower Station, two ancient cities, Lion City and Hecheng, and 27 towns, more than 1, villages and 3, mu of fertile land all sank to the bottom of Qiandao Lake, and 29, people moved to other places. And this ancient city of Lion City, which has a history of more than a thousand years, is still sleeping at the bottom of Qiandao Lake.
We have no chance to see the underwater ancient city again, but fortunately, in 216, Jiangjia Town, which is the closest to the original site of the Lion City, has a total construction area of about 8, square meters. Yuan Wen Lion City reproduces the original scene of the underwater Millennium Lion City, and scenes all the cultures in the ancient city, such as traditional handicrafts, intangible items, folk customs and festivals. Here, you can see Qiandao Lake in one bay or eat it in one plate.
Knock on the gate of Kuiwen Tower early in the morning, climb to the top and take a distant view. You can have a panoramic view of Qiandao Lake, the green island on the vast blue waves, and the Millennium-old city decorated with gray tiles and white walls. It's so quiet that you can't wait for the beautiful scenery before you. I just want to have a look again.
This is Qiandao Lake, Jiangjia Town and Yuan Wen Lion City!

- The city with a thousand years history-
Jiangjia is a profound cultural resort, and the Millennium ancient city-Lion City is silent in the Jiangjia water area of Qiandao Lake. It was once the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of Gu Sui 'an County, and it is also one of the cradles of Chun 'an cultural heritage today. In the 4th year of Tang Wude (621), Sui 'an County moved to Wushi Mountain, so it was also called the Lion City because it was backed by Wushi Mountain. Due to the convenient land and water transportation, the lion city was once an important town on the ancient commercial road of Hangzhou-Huizhou, and was known as the "Little Tianfu in West Zhejiang". Qiandao Lake has long been famous at home and abroad, but the two thousand-year-old cities at the bottom of the lake are rarely mentioned by the outside world. In 1959, due to the construction of Xin 'anjiang Hydropower Station, the "Lion City" and "Hecheng City" which began in the Han and Tang Dynasties were submerged under this blue wave overnight.
after half a century, Xin' anjiang hydropower station gradually retreated to be a backup power station in East China, and gradually faded out of people's sight, followed by the reputation of Qiandao Lake as a tourist attraction. After historical events such as "breaking the four old buildings" and the transformation of the old city, it is difficult to find a complete ancient city pool on land. Thousand-year-old underwater city of Qiandao Lake was remembered at this time.
The underwater ancient city still stays quietly under the blue waters, while the Yuan Wen Lion City is located in Jiangjia Town, the most beautiful lake bay in Qiandao Lake, China. The underwater ancient city that has submerged the bottom of Qiandao Lake for more than 6 years will reappear, with different lions and retro streets, taking you into the Millennium Xin 'an civilization.
-Lion City slows down time and reproduces the cultural heritage flowing for thousands of years-
Lion City Lion City, where the lion is the protagonist, is named after Wushi Mountain, and the origin of the ancient people's house to ward off evil spirits. In this city, all kinds of mighty, solemn, naive or cute lions can be seen everywhere.
memorial archway is one of the architectural cultures with Chinese characteristics. It is a building built by feudal society in recognition of meritorious service, science, virtue, loyalty and filial piety. Light and shadow are mottled, carved beams and painted buildings, and the beautiful scenery always attracts people to linger. Just like these archways in Yuan Wen Lion City, they are a must-see for tourists and photographers. Every archway has a story behind him, just like the lion city at the bottom of this sleeping lake, which tells it silently.
The streets with bluestone slabs have an antique charm, and the buildings with two plates are typical of Huizhou style.
At this moment, you will feel that time is slow, as if you were traveling back to the Republic of China, day and night, and walking slowly.
-Yuan Wen the Lion Awakening, the inheritance of Xin 'an culture-
Embroidery workshop, singing songs, shadow play, wine cellar and the inheritance of Xin 'an culture can all be experienced here. If you have time, it is also very good to make an embroidery in Xiufang, or it is very comfortable to stand on the street and listen to a little song. And at night, there are also small bars for recreation.
the lion city, of course, is also inseparable from the lion dance. At present, the scenic spot has arranged three performances of the lion king's performance every day. It is worth mentioning that, unlike the single lion dance we have seen in the past, this is the venue for the international lion king competition, because we have enjoyed more kinds of lion dance performances. So you are such a lion king!
Watch a church meeting, flash show in the Republic of China, and so on. The performances are interspersed all day. When you are tired, go to the stage to watch a performance. When you are hungry and thirsty, there are many street snacks to choose from.
burn incense, light wax, jump and add officials; Draw forehead, worship and pray for peace. These rare ancient Dragon Boat Festival blessing ceremonies can be experienced in Yuan Wen Lion City during this Dragon Boat Festival.
There is a blessing ceremony for thousands of people, including a mighty and solemn duke and graceful and elegant ladies-in-waiting. The blessing ceremony starts from the gate of East Street, and the three pillars are fragrant and worship the sky. Then cruise along the east street of Yuan Wen Lion City to the north gate, where ladies-in-waiting scatter rice, meaning to ward off evil spirits and avoid bad luck, and interact with tourists and shops along the street to give mugwort leaves.
In front of the memorial archway in the North Square, an exorcism and blessing ceremony was held. Tianshi Zhong Kui staged a domineering attack on five poisons, and ladies-in-waiting performed a flag dance to reproduce the grand occasion of the ancient Dragon Boat Festival blessing ceremony. The tribute on the incense table is also a complete sample of ancient sacrifices, and the big pig head is particularly conspicuous. Painting forehead, the custom of applying realgar to children's forehead during the Dragon Boat Festival, clouds can drive away poisonous insects. The typical method is to draw the word "Wang" on children's foreheads with realgar. One is to borrow realgar to drive away the poison, and the other is to borrow tiger's forehead ("Wang" is like a tiger, and the tiger is the king of beasts, because it is replaced by a tiger) to suppress evil spirits. After the blessing ceremony, there was a painting by Zhong Kui, and the tourists present actively participated in it, hoping to be healthy and auspicious for a whole year.
If you want to know about past lives in the Lion City, come to the Lion City Return Hall under the city wall, with old photos and vivid stories of people in the Lion City, and take you into those years in the Lion City.
-Climb to the top and see the Lion City at a glance-
If you want to see the whole picture of the Lion City, it is the best choice to climb the Kuiwen Tower outside the Yuan Wen Lion City. Kuiwen Pagoda is one of the three pagodas in the ancient city of Sui 'an (the other two pagodas are Xiangyun Pagoda and Hongshan Pagoda). It was built in the Ming Dynasty, with six sides and seven floors. It has a brick structure and can be boarded. It stands on the hill next to Shijia Village in Erlixu, outside the county. It is a Feng Shui Pagoda that promotes the prosperity of literature. In 1959, the Xin 'anjiang Dam was completed and impounded to form Qiandao Lake. The Kuiwen Pagoda and the ancient city of Sui 'an, which is "the land in eastern Zhejiang", sank to the bottom of the lake. As time went by, the Kuiwen Pagoda, which had been silent for more than half a century, gradually faded out of people's memory.
In p>211, Jiang Jia Town was built in Sui 'an. In order to reproduce the submerged ancient city of Sui 'an, Jiang Jia Town built the Lion City Museum, and re-reproduced the Kuiwen Pagoda at a scale of 1: 1. On the first night, it was too late to visit Kuiwen Tower, and the tower door was closed, but the Kuiwen Tower was more conspicuous under the light at night.
I visited again the next morning. Originally, the Kuiwen Tower didn't open until 8: 3. The uncle of the Lion City Museum under the tower heard that I had come all the way, so he opened the door for me in advance. Facing Qiandao Lake, Kuiwen Tower is backed by Baiqin Lake. Looking at the tower, it is already: the highest level on the tower, taking advantage of the moon, wants to open a realm for literature; Not far from the Buddha, the dream of cutting clouds has been realized.
The panoramic view of the prefix was taken here. The sunshine at eight o'clock is gentle. You just walk carefully and calm down to feel this encounter after a thousand years.
-In the re-born Millennium ancient city, Qiandao Lake is eaten in one dish-
Yuan Wen Lion City reproduces the original scene of the Millennium underwater lion city, and scenes all the cultures in the ancient city, such as traditional handicrafts, intangible items, folk customs and festivals. Here, you can see Qiandao Lake in one bay or eat Qiandao Lake in one dish.
The ingredients here come from the local farm of Jiang family, and are cooked with authentic local dishes. There are Yifuchun, Shibawan and Jiangbaiwei restaurants in the scenic spot, and there are local delicacies such as snack vendor stalls on the street for you to choose from.
the river is full of flavor, and the spacious lobby gives people a sense of seeing the waves crossing the river.
It is located on the shore of Qiandao Lake. Of course, the organic fish head of Qiandao Lake is the first one. Organic fish, Qiandao Lake is the first organic fish certified by the Organic Food Development Center of the State Environmental Protection Administration, and Qiandao Lake is also the first organic fish breeding base in China. Organic fish, which is called "growing up with tonic", is because organic fish of Qiandao Lake is wild and grows naturally, and does not eat any feed. Moreover, Qiandao Lake is the largest national forest park in China, where there are thousands of hectares of pine forests. Every spring, pine pollen scattered all over the mountains, which nourishes yin and strengthens yang, provides a natural tonic for organic fish in Qiandao Lake. Therefore, the organic fish in Qiandao Lake is not only delicious, but also full of food.
The fish caught in this way, after simple boiling, tastes particularly delicious immediately, especially the soup, which is really the simplest but most delicious fish soup that has been drunk in recent years. Not only does it not have the usual earthy smell of river fish, but it is very fresh and sweet with a strong texture. According to our usual experience, fish soup is delicious, and fish must be firewood, because nutrients are lost in the soup. But the magic thing is that this fish is not astringent at all, and the meat is super fresh and tender. A big bowl is split up when it comes up.
when I came to the west of Zhejiang, I also recommended to try the "Eighteen Bowls" dishes. It is said that there are allusions to this. When Shang Lu, the records of the Ming Dynasty, returned to his hometown, the emperor gave him a royal chef to accompany him, so that he could thank his fellow villagers and elders. There are many villagers, and he thinks hard and doesn't know how to thank them in order to show his sincerity. Later, he finally thought of a good way-there were 18 old people left in the villagers, so he asked the royal chef to design a table with 18 dishes as a specification to express his gratitude to the villagers. Later, this hospitality specification has been inherited and has become the highest standard for hospitality in western Zhejiang, known as "eighteen bowls". There is nothing unusual about dishes, which we can see almost every day, but its significance lies in the intention and gratitude behind it. And because of the fresh and authentic ingredients, it is also particularly delicious.
-Yuan Wen Borui, a high-end resort hotel walking between mountains and rivers-
"Sailing on the blue waves, people are in Traveling in a pictorial world", which I think is the best description of Platinum Ree Hotel in Yuan Wen Lion City, Qiandao Lake.
Yuan Wen Lion City Platinum Ree Hotel, Qiandao Lake, is a villa group operated and managed by Greenland International Hotel Management Group, which integrates Huizhou architecture, health and holiday, culture and leisure. The lobby of the hotel reveals a strong Huizhou ancient style, and all the waiters are dressed with the charm of the Republic of China, which makes the hotel bring a little ancient rhyme from the beginning and complement each other with Yuan Wen Lion City.
In the criss-crossing alleys, during the hiding period of single-family villas, water channels are criss-crossing, and Lengshui Alley, Qingyi Alley and Changtanxi, where Buddhas are released, are inadvertently presented. Such an environment, wearing a cheongsam, playing an oil-paper umbrella, walking during the period, at that moment, my heart is particularly quiet. The charm of the ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River, the heritage of the Millennium Lion City and the accumulation of history have created today's beautiful scenery.
At the beginning of the Hua Deng, the lanterns hung in front of each villa are quietly lit, reflecting the sky that is not completely black, adding a touch of charm.
When you push open this wooden gate, you will see a small private courtyard.
When you gently push open the wooden gate, a staircase leads to the second floor. The room type is located on the second floor of a single-family villa.
at the corner of the second floor, there is a minibar, and drinks and tea in the refrigerator are free.
if you go further inside, you will find a 2-meter big bed. It is said that all rooms in the hotel are big beds, which is amazing. The bed is very soft, and it is very comfortable to lean against it after a violent day.
There is also a long chair on one side of the bed, where you can make tea and read books and play chess. And provide welcome fruit, which is very sweet.
The bathroom is the largest one in the hotel in recent years. The dressing table and locker are very large, and it is equipped with complete toiletries, even ironing clothes. There is also a bathtub in the bathroom, and a comfortable bath is also very good.
Breakfast is in the form of buffet in Ruiyi All-day Restaurant. The whole restaurant is also in an antique style. Breakfast is quite rich, including cakes, porridge, hot dishes, milk and so on, and I like a bowl of hot noodles best, which is perfect.
Asia's largest infinity pool, the blue with a thorough heart
In addition to the elegant and antique Huizhou villa rooms, Platinum Ree Hotel also has the largest infinity pool in Asia! In summer, there is nothing more refreshing than jumping into a cool swimming pool! And those endless swimming pools that are suspended at the top of the city, or cross the long river of history, or stand on cliffs, or melt into the sea are paradise on earth in the hearts of countless people, and the endless swimming pool of Platinum Ree Hotel is on the shores of Thousand Island Lake. Going to Zhang Quanjing first, the sea and the sky are the same color. Even if you don't go into the water, it is intoxicating to look at the beautiful scenery in front of you quietly.
When no one is around, this side of the Bichi Lake is as calm as a sapphire, lying drunk by the Thousand Island Lake, and even a little unwilling to break this calm.
The swimming pool is a place suitable for all lovers and girlfriends. I just want to walk hand in hand with you on the shores of Thousand Island Lake and watch this beautiful scenery.
Outside the swimming pool, there is Qiandao Lake. The clear water is intoxicating. It is said that the visibility can reach 1 meters. No wonder it can produce such delicious Qiandao Lake organic fish. Qiandao Lake is blue during the day, but at the moment when the sun goes down, the slightly reddish glow dyes the lake purple, which is even more intoxicating.
I also saw a wonderful water performance, and the water column was churning, which made people wonder.
under a pool of beautiful water, there is a mystery.
