The Dongting Lake under Yueyang Tower is the relic of Yunmengze in ancient times. Although its area is now twice as small as before, it is still the second largest freshwater lake in the country. Dongting Lake is composed of four large lakes, Dongting Lake and Datong Lake in the east, west and south, presenting a landscape of water flow swamps, river network plains, surrounded by mountains on the east, south and west, and an open horseshoe-shaped basin in the north. The scenery is beautiful and there are many scenic spots, such as: Yueyang Tower, Junshan, Du Fu's Tomb, Yangmo Village, Tiejing Building, Quzi Temple and other historical sites. In Chenglingji, the junction of East Dongting Lake and the Yangtze River, there is a place called Sanjiangkou. From here, you can see Dongting in the distance, but you can see the Xiangjiang River surging northward. The literati and writers of all dynasties have enthusiastically chanted the beautiful Dongting Lake. The "Yueyang Tower" in the Northern Song Dynasty depicts the changing scenery of Dongting Lake from the perspective of Yueyang Tower. The momentum of Dongting Lake is majestic and majestic, and the moonlight of Dongting Lake is soft and magnificent. Even in the gloomy and dark weather, it gives people a unique and secret feeling, arousing people's interest in traveling. Dongting Lake is also a well-known land of fish and rice, with extremely rich products. The main economic fish are carp, grass, tuna, anchovy, herring and so on. Whitebait is its famous product. Shellfish resources are also very rich, up to more than 40 species. In addition, the ramie, Junshan tea and Xianglian abounds in the Lake District, which are well-known both at home and abroad.
Crossing a small ancient street to a square and finally arrived at the Dongting Lake, maybe it is a dry season, but it is better than Xiangyang Lake! Someone on the lakeside photo has not been published. I don't know why the lake is chaotic and not clean?
You can take a cruise here, but now there are not many tourists, so it is rare to have a trip. On the contrary, there are more sanitation boats here. After a while, I saw them, and there were many fishers on the shore.
There are also quite a lot of legends here. There are Queen Ying and Liu Yi's biography. They are all related to Dongting Lake. When I came over in the morning, Dongting Lake saw the scenery. It was quite interesting. There was water mist everywhere, and it was really a smoke wave.

The specific time to visit Dongting Lake is on the evening of autumn. That is, Dongting Lake on the evening of autumn, the lake is clear and smoke-free, and it is clear. The "Nanhu" here is named because Dongting Lake is in the southwest of Yueyang. It is worth mentioning that although this poem is indifferent, it is a natural indifferent language to carve.
