Double rainbow falling color

In 1848, in order to dredge the mud at the bottom of the lake, a long dike from shaojiashan to yangjiashan of Meihu lake was built, named WULITANG. It is about 8 meters wide, with a stone arch bridge at each end. It is called xiahong bridge in the East and Shanghong bridge in the west to connect boats. Every spring and summer, after the thunderstorm, the sun broke the clouds, hung on the rainbow, under the bow bridge, the scenery is gorgeous. After Meihu was turned into a farm in 1961, the scene disappeared.

Double rainbow falling color

One of the ten scenic spots around Dongqian Lake

Dongqian Lake is divided into three lakes. GuZi lake is in the northwest, Meihu lake is in the northeast, and the rest is called Waihu lake.

In the 28th year of Daoguang reign of Qing Dynasty (1848), a long dike was built between shaojiashan and yangjiashan in Meihu Lake by using dredged lake silt. It is five li long, so it is called WULITANG. A stone arch bridge will be built at the head and tail of the pond, with xiahong bridge in the East and Shanghong bridge in the West. In the late spring and early summer, when the thunderstorm stops, there are often seven colors of rainbow hanging in the air. At that time, the colorful neon is above, the bow bridge is below, the mountains and rivers are shining, and the scenery is gorgeous. Therefore, Li Bai's idea of "two water with bright mirror, double rainbow falling color bridge" is taken as the name of "double rainbow falling color bridge". The people of Qing Dynasty wrote poems and chanted the way

Zoumameitang wulitong, Dongqiao viaduct west east;

Do not think the mirror from now on broken, the road is double rainbow down in the air.
