Chijian Lake used to be called XipiTang, and it is not clear which name is better, which may only reflect a change of the times. At that time, the sea was surrounded by lakes, and there were many villages around the lake, and after the low tide, there would be a strip of harbors, which was a passage out to the sea. Nowadays, a new energy town has been built on the land of Xipitang, and the factories of the new energy town are like crops rising higher and further, stretching away.
Walk along the elevated road, walk in the sun, and slowly walk to the seawall of Chijian Lake, every step is a scenery.
A pale yellowish brown stone, like a half-moon-shaped comb, embedded in the emerald green lawn. The stone is impressively carved with the five characters of "Chijian Lake Park".
The story of Chijian Lake can be traced back to the distant Northern Song Dynasty. In the fourth year of the Yuan Dynasty, Lin Gui, a native of Ningde Zhangwan Island, with the assistance of Yang Yu, the abbot of Shengquan Temple, built a field around the sea between heaven and earth with the strength of mortals, creating a beautiful Chijian Lake. It is said that in the Lin family tree, there are eight scenic spots of JianHu Lake: Huafeng Evening Ji, Shi xiu Qingyun, Jian Hu fishing boat, Pi du boat, Li Lin cluster, Songwu wind sound, Doumen water storage, ancient temple bell.
The lake sparkles during the day and the moon is enchanting at night. Stop by the lake to enjoy the stars and the sea of clouds, occasionally blow the lake breeze to take a nap, and two spring, summer, autumn and winter have passed.
The beauty of Chijian Lake also stirred the hearts of literati and military generals. Han Shizhong entered Fujian to suppress Fan Ruwei's peasant army, and stopped by to visit the late Nguyen Da Cheng, passing through Chi Jian Lake. At that moment, the silver waves of Chijian Lake were as clear as glass, and the clear silver light shone in Han Shizhong's heart, and he couldn't help but chant: "Ten thousand acres of glass are clear in the end, and the cold light does not move Haimen Ping." The opening wave surface is clean every day, and the siphon tide is thousands of miles. Blow off the sea breeze fishing flute far away, carrying back to the autumn moon falling sail lightly. Qianpi once went to the lonely boat to see, how can it seem that his eyes are bright now?"
The peculiarity of Chijian Lake is that it is always changing. No scoop of lake water can last forever, and no plant has not changed. That seemingly natural beauty is always related to human beings. With their hands and their eyes, the Ningde people can always conjure up something beautiful and wonderful between heaven and earth. Even so, Chijian Lake has always been so calm, as if it has been like this since ancient times.
Yu Xin, a literary scholar of the Southern and Northern Dynasties period, chanted in the "Mirror Poem": "The light is like a piece of water, and the shadow illuminates the people on both sides." ”
At this moment, the mirror of Chijian Lake reflects the buildings on the lakeside and illuminates the rise of this city. Chijian Lake not only precipitates a heavy history, but also reflects a gorgeous reality. Crowds came and went, and the flowers bloomed and bloomed. But Chijian Lake is still the Same Chijian Lake
