According to the records in the annals of Xianchun piling, Liu Yilong, Emperor Wen of the Song Dynasty, toured and hunted here at the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the southern and Northern Dynasties. He saw that the area was covered by floods for tens of miles and was ruled by fate. Yuanjia 24 years (448 years) into the lake, because of the song Wendi rule, so named "Song Jianhu".

Song Jianhu is also called Linjin lake. This name began in the late Sui Dynasty. Due to the development of the Beijing Hangzhou canal, the upstream water flowed down. Fortunately, song Jianhu diverted the water from the canal to Taihu Lake, which became the gateway of diverting flood to the East.

Song Jianhu is also known as "Song Jianhu". It is said that King Kang of Song Dynasty crossed the lake southward and fell his sword into the water in a hurry, so he changed "Jian" to "Jian". Although there is no textual research, the homonym of "Jian" and "Jian" is more elegant than "Jian", so it has been passed down to this day.

According to the records of Wuyang County written by Guangxu of Qing Dynasty, "Song Jianhu is located in Anshang Township, 30 miles southeast of the county, five miles east and West, three miles north and south, Qishuyan in the north, Hutou village in the South..."

It is said that the water in the lake is clear and honest, and the tea is poured into the cup, which is long but not overflowing. "Lotus roots on the surface of the water are picked on the beach and are as beautiful as Ru; fish on the bottom of the water are fished on the lake and eaten fresh". It is a quiet and elegant place in the suburbs of Zhoufu and has been admired by many scholars.

There is Qingcheng bridge on the Bank of Hunan Province. A textual research on the inscription of Qingcheng bridge rebuilt in 1803: "the Qingcheng bridge in the west of Qingcheng belongs to Anshang Township, where Gaozong passed south to settle his account here. Because of its name, the bridge carries the annals of the county and its historical sites. It crosses the Qingcheng River, which is the main part of Jinliang and the thoroughfare to and from..." The bridge is of stone arch shape, with high-rise stone steps and horizontal arches. On a white moon night, you climb to the top of the bridge. You can see the moon in the north and the river in the south. To the East, there are Qingcheng ancient street, Qingcheng Zen temple, and to the west, there are thoroughfares.
