The water from the mountains is blocked in the dam, forming a large lake. The lake blocked by the dam is the artificial lake Jieyang lake, which sets off the ancient and magical peaks of Jieshi mountain.

History of database construction

In the past, the seasonal river running between the East and West Mantou mountains was called "Jiliuhe" because of its fast speed when it was flowing. Before Qin and Han Dynasties, it was called "Shengshui" in the book of mountains and seas because of its close distance to the sea. In the book of geography of Han Dynasty, it was called "braided water" (braided in ancient times refers to the rope used to connect bamboo slips). Before the construction of Guoxiang reservoir, every rainy season, the flood from the Jieshi peaks in jieshimen was like a runaway wild horse rushing down into the torrent River, rushing out of jieshimen, rushing straight to the Xiguan area of Changli County, into the Yinma River and running to the sea. Before and after the founding of the people's Republic of China, the flood of the Jiliuhe river had several times endangered the safety of urban areas.

In the old society, people suffered from this river, but they couldn't control it. They had to engrave the word "water stop" on a rock beside the mountain road in the south of Shanxi, and engraved two lines of incantations: "water runs the old way, the Dragon returns to the old abyss", "always for the benefit of the people, not for the disaster of the people", hoping that "water stop stone" can stop the flood.

However, the stone carving stood in front of Jieshi mountain in spring and autumn, so the flood did not stop. It was not until the 1950s that the Guoxiang reservoir was built that jieshimen had a real "water stop stone". A 342 meter long and 15.3-meter high flood dam cut off an artificial lake that turned water disaster into water conservancy. The surface of Guoxiang reservoir is 450 meters wide from east to west and 1500 meters long from north to south, with a catchment area of 8.5 square kilometers. In the early summer of 1985, after renovation, the bright pearl Guoxiang reservoir embedded in Jieshi peaks was named "Jieyang Lake" and turned into a tourist scenic spot.
