Hongze Lake, located at the junction of Jiangsu, Anhui, Huai 'an and Suqian, is currently under the joint jurisdiction of Huai 'an and Suqian, with Huai 'an in the south and Suqian in the north. Hongze Lake before Tang and Song Dynasties was originally a group of small lakes. The Yellow River changed its course in 1 194 and seized the Huaihe River below Huaiyin in 1855, which has a history of more than 700 years. In addition, the Yellow River channel is high, the water level of Huaihe River is rising, and small lakes that were originally unconnected are connected due to the increase of water flow.
Hongze Lake is also a large-scale shipping hub in the Huaihe River basin, with developed fishery and aquatic products, and has the reputation of "making at sunrise and resting at sunset". And Hongze Lake? It has a long history, vast lakes, rich natural landscape and aquatic resources, attracting many tourists to visit. This time I went to Hongze Lake in Huai 'an.
This time, Hongze Lake in Huai 'an mainly visited the ancient weir scenic spot. The ancient weir scenic spot of Hongze Lake is a national 4A-level tourist attraction and a world cultural heritage. There are Hongze Lake Dike, Shuifucheng, Diligent Education Hall, Fisherman's Bay, Happy Garden and other scenic spots in the scenic spot. It is a comprehensive tourist attraction integrating leisure, ecology, sightseeing and amusement. Because there are relatively few tourists here, it is quiet and leisurely.
Hongze Lake Hairy Crab, I believe everyone is familiar with it, is the representative of "Huai Crab" in northern Jiangsu, and is also called "North and South" among Yangcheng Lake Hairy Crabs. In Qinlian Education Center, we saw the cartoon images of Hongze Lake hairy crabs "pengpeng" and "Xie", which are taken from the homonym of the word "crab". The red "pengpeng" symbolizes the future prosperity of Hongze Lake hairy crab industry, and the green "Xie" represents Hongze's pollution-free green ecology.
On one side of the cartoon image is Huai 'an Hongze "Jindi Gu Yong" diligent and honest education base, which is located in Fisherman's Bay Scenic Area. Jindi Gu Yong is the levee of Hongze Lake, an important flood control barrier of Hongze Lake, and has the reputation of "Great Wall on Water".
The concept of education is divided into five parts:? Spring and Autumn in the Watertown, Moistening Things in the Huaihe River, Collapse of Ant Nest, Rectification of the Wind and Discipline, and Long Warning Bell mainly introduce the important diligent and honest deeds of managing the Huaihe River in history, and also alert the current management departments to establish a correct view of power, career and future-oriented values, so as to achieve "golden embankment evergreen". Although it is an educational concept, I think it is worth visiting here, which is of great help to understand Huaihe River and Hongze Lake.
When I came to the ancient weir scenic spot of Hongze Lake, the key point was to visit the Hongze Lake levee, an important flood control project. The levee is located on the east bank of Hongze Lake, starting from Wharf Town in the north and reaching Jiangba Town in the south, with a total length of more than 70 kilometers. Along the way, there are rich natural and cultural landscapes, beautiful scenery and fresh air, such as Ganlong Imperial Monument and Xinba Site.
Hongze Lake levee was built in the Eastern Han Dynasty with a history of 1800 years. Later dynasties continued to build, especially in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, from the original earth embankment to the stone embankment, which lasted more than 200 years. At present, the Hongze Lake levee has been listed in the World Cultural Heritage List, and it was a miracle to build such a waterproof project at that time.
In particular, the vertical masonry wall of Hongze Lake levee is introduced to be made of more than 60,000 stones weighing 1000 kg and glutinous rice lime slurry. The overall scale is unified and the workmanship is fine. Its technology has reached the world's leading level, which has saved the lower reaches of the Huaihe River from floods and has the reputation of "Great Wall on Water".
Standing on the embankment, you can see the lush green plants on the shore, which constitute an important natural barrier against floods. In the distance, as far as the eye can see is Hongze Lake. The wind is blowing from the lake, and the coolness of autumn makes people feel very comfortable.
There are also many places along Hongze Lake for leisure punching, which meet the needs of different tourist groups, and are no longer a single lake view, which increases the interest. If you travel to Jiangsu or Huai 'an, Hongze Lake must have a look and feel the charm of Hongze Lake now.
