Introduction and historical background of Shichahai: Shichahai refers to the three lakes of Qianhai, Houhai and Xihai and their adjacent areas, where there are a large number of beautiful lakes. It is also a famous historical block in Beijing, where many famous people's former residences, palaces and other historical sites are scattered, as well as all kinds of food close to the lives of ordinary people. Houhai Bar Street is an old-fashioned resort for nightlife in Beijing. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, dignitaries and literati lived here; After the Qing dynasty entered the customs, the "Zhenghuang Banner" personally led by the emperor was stationed here. In 1992, Shichahai area was named "Historical and Cultural Tourism Scenic Area" by the executive meeting of Beijing Municipal People's Government (hereinafter referred to as "Shichahai Scenic Area"). In 22, the Protection Plan of 25 Historical and Cultural Protection Zones in the Old City of Beijing issued by Beijing listed Shichahai and its surrounding area as one of the 25 historical and cultural protection zones.

Shichahai area is a traditional scenic area and residents' reserved area with the characteristics of old Beijing, which retains the original folk culture in the inner city of Beijing. The Yinding Bridge in the east spans the lake, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the western hills when you stand at the bridge head, so it has the reputation of "Yinding Mountain View" in Yanjing Xiaobajing.

Summer waves are as flat as a mirror, weeping willows are weeping, lotus flowers are in full bloom, and winter is a natural skating rink. On both sides of the bank are well-preserved Wangfu Gardens and criss-crossing street houses, echoing the Bell Tower and Drum Tower, among which Gongwangfu, the largest in Qing Dynasty, is the representative work. When you set foot on the long embankment, you can see the sparkling clear water, graceful weeping willows, winding railings and the lush central island. There are boats to row in the sea, open chairs to sit on by the shore, and red and green swimming pools, which are not interesting.
