Pinghu Autumn Moon

After walking across the Broken Bridge and the Baidi Causeway, we arrived at Xiaogushan. Xiaogushan is a small island on the north side of West Lake, with many classic historical sites on it, such as Pinghu Qiuyue and Xiling Seal Society. We first took a stroll around Pinghu Qiuyue, and then walked along the road by the lake to Guanghua Fudan Gate. We passed by the Zhejiang Provincial Museum in the middle, but we didn't go in because we didn't have time.

Pinghu Autumn Moon is one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake. It has always been the best place to enjoy the moon.

In the past, Pinghu Autumn Moon did not have a fixed location. When Emperor Kangxi visited West Lake, he inscribed the inscription "Pinghu Autumn Moon". From then on, the scenic spot became fixed. The current Pinghu Autumn Moon viewing spot is located at the west end of Baidi, with its back against Gushan and facing the outer lake.

West Lake in Hangzhou has always been the best place to enjoy the moon. At the west end of Baidi, there is a place with bright moon and clear wind. It is Pinghu Qiuyue Scenic Area, one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake. It is backed by Gushan Mountain and faces the outer lake of West Lake. The landscape is open along the lake, including the Imperial Monument Pavilion, the water platform, the four-sided hall, the octagonal pavilion, the lake and sky building and other buildings. Because the platform extending out of the water is very wide and the field of vision is very wide, it has become a first-class moon-viewing resort.

Method 1: Take photos with artistic conception. When taking photos in Pinghu Qiuyue, we can use the lake and mountains as the background and the frame of the pavilion to take beautiful photos with artistic conception. From a distance, the characters seem to be embedded in the painting.

Method 2: Photographing antique round arches. Pinghu Qiuyue has many round arches with different characteristics. If we use them skillfully, we can take some nice portraits.

I heard that rainy days are more suitable for girls! The gentle West Lake, the green willow trees, the antique round doorway and the girl holding an umbrella make the artistic conception up! The nested round wooden doors are very interesting. Try to make some funny poses and check in. If you take a single shot of the scenery, the picture will not feel monotonous at all.

Photo shooting method three: Capture the green of West Lake everywhere. The green of West Lake is bright and beautiful, and it seems that your mood will become brighter when you see it. The mottled moss everywhere, the lush greenery on both sides of the winding paths and stairs, and the green old trees above the door plaques all make the whole Pinghu Qiuyue look full of vitality. Don't miss these greens when you come to take photos.

It is said that good photos give people a sense of transparency, and sometimes we need the help of visual extension lines! By using the extension lines of the shrubs on both sides of the stairs, we can take a portrait with a sense of layering.

When you are tired, you can sit by the West Lake. The lush trees can not only provide shade, but also enhance your photos. The extension of the branches makes the picture full of lines.

After walking along the Baidi Bridge, the end is "Calm Lake Autumn Moon". The "Calm Lake Autumn Moon" landscape refers to: every clear autumn day, the surface of the West Lake is as calm as a mirror, the bright autumn moon is in the sky, the moonlight and the lake water complement each other, giving a feeling of "the lake is full of autumn light", hence the name "Calm Lake Autumn Moon".

"The moon is soaked in the cold spring, and it is frozen and does not flow. Where can I find the boat with the oarsman's song on the way home?

White apples and red reeds are wrapped in the west wind, and the lake is full of autumn colors. "

------Song Sunrui



In the Southern Song Dynasty, it was listed as the third of the Ten Scenic Spots of West Lake. In the Yuan Dynasty, it was called "West Lake Night Moon" and listed as one of the Ten Scenic Spots of Qiantang.

The landscape of "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake" refers to the following: whenever the autumn weather is refreshing, the surface of the West Lake is as calm as a mirror, the bright autumn moon is in the sky, and the moonlight and the lake water complement each other, giving a feeling of "the lake is full of autumn light", hence the name "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake".

In the Southern Song Dynasty, there was no fixed location for the "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake", but the best place to see the moon in the autumn night was by boating on the lake. In the 38th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, Emperor Kangxi visited the West Lake and inscribed the inscription "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake". From then on, the scenic spot became fixed.

2020.10.7The first scenic spot after entering Baidi is Pinghu Qiuyue; the scenic spot is small and unique

It's a small pavilion. You can take a look when you pass by.

The "Autumn Moon over the Peaceful Lake" scenic spot for daytime roaming.

Unfortunately, I didn't have any good memories of passing by the area when I took a night cruise the night before.

Pinghu Autumn Moon Scenic Area is located at the west end of Baidi, the south foot of Gushan Mountain, and close to the Outer West Lake. It is a scenic spot for viewing the full moon on nights.

The best location to enjoy the West Lake scenery, where you can see most of the West Lake surface

Walking along the embankment, we arrived at the "Peaceful Lake Autumn Moon", one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake. The only thing missing from this night of West Lake under the shining lights is a bright moon. Unfortunately, we can only see the inscription "Peaceful Lake Autumn Moon". We will not be able to see the beautiful scenery of "the harmony of lake light and autumn moon" tonight.

This is a safe haven after all the storms. It is very charming. I can't help but think of the night when Caichen and Xiaoqian met, and I can imagine the music of the guqin. If the weather is better, it should be more beautiful.

The scenic area is backed by Gushan Mountain and faces the outer lake of West Lake. The landscape is open along the lake.

At the intersection of Gushan and Baidi. Watch the moon at night. One of the ten scenic spots of West Lake.

This attraction is suitable for autumn nights, which is almost the end of August. Although it is not Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon is very bright and round.

Imagine if it was a quiet moonlit night with no one around, you and your lover would be here to enjoy the moon and listen to the waves lapping against the water. It would be a beautiful scene. Unfortunately, the West Lake today is no longer so quiet and beautiful due to the crowds of people.

There is a fork road between Pinghu Qiuyue and Baidi. Turning down, it leads to the north bank of Gushan Mountain. There are no dense crowds along the way, but you can sit on a bench and calmly watch the reflection of the two worlds on the water surface on the embankment.

It is beautiful to go there at night, drinking tea, watching the full moon, with the breeze blowing, and being with your loved one

After crossing the Broken Bridge, continue walking along the Bai Causeway, enjoying the lake and flowers, and before you know it, you will arrive at the end of the Bai Causeway, where you will see "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake", one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake. It is said that Hangzhou people are very particular about moon-watching during the Mid-Autumn Festival. To watch the moon in the lake, go to the "Three Pools Mirroring the Moon" on Xiaoying Island; to watch the moon on the mountain, go to the Moon Rock on the slope of Fenghuang Mountain; to watch the moon on the shore, the best choice is the Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake with the Blue Sky and Clear Water.

Starting from Pinghu Autumn Moon, you will arrive at a small island-shaped area, where there are various memorial halls and art galleries: Bai Juyi Memorial Hall, Zhejiang West Lake Art Museum, Zhejiang Provincial Museum, West Lake Museum... and so on.

I don’t think there is anything interesting about “Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake”, one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake.

I went at the wrong time, so I couldn't see the Autumn Moon over the lake, but the scenery was nice.

Is this the location where the film "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake" was shot? Unfortunately, the moon has already set, and the West Lake, covered in morning mist, looks like a bride in a white veil, shy and lovely!

Finally arrived at the autumn moon on Pinghu Lake.

Although this season does not have "the lake is full of autumn colors", it does have "the spring water is green like oil, and the new moth's reflection is soft in the mirror."

Green leaves reflect spring waves, spring waves reflect green leaves. They complement each other.

"The lake is covered with mist, and only gods and immortals can live there. The love of the mortal world is in vain, the peach and plum blossoms are withered, and the snow and red rain are flying. ..."

Pinghu Qiuyue cannot be considered as a separate scenic spot. I don’t know why?

The moon over West Lake in autumn has been recognized as a beautiful sight since ancient times, full of poetic and picturesque beauty. Looking far ahead in the autumn night, you can see the bright moon in the sky, the lake and the sky are blue, the golden wind brings coolness, the water and the moon blend together, and you don't know what day it is.

When we were visiting Baidi Bridge, we were tired and wanted to take a break, so we sat down at Pinghu Qiuyue's lakeside restaurant. A bowl of osmanthus lotus root powder is 15 yuan, and a serving of tea is 48 yuan with a small snack. You can also buy corn tofu next door and sit down to eat. The taste is super good and the view is great.

Part of the beautiful scenery of West Lake. According to the name, it should be seen on the night of August 15th.

It takes about half an hour to walk from Broken Bridge to Pinghu Autumn Moon. The scenery is nice, but it is a pity that it is inconvenient to take pictures due to the rain.

The staff in the teahouse are required to bring their own meals, so the teahouse doesn't provide meals?

As the words suggest, you have to wait until early autumn when the weather is cool to appreciate its beauty.

In summer, standing on the Pinghu Qiuyue terrace, you can see the green lotus and clear water nearby, and the lake and sky blending into one in the distance, and you should be content.

The scenery is beautiful, it would be better if it was not the peak season

Pinghu Autumn Moon is at the end of Su Causeway. You can visit it together with Broken Bridge and Residual Snow. The two scenic spots are at the two ends of Bai Causeway. Here I remind you that if you want to enjoy Pinghu Autumn Moon, you must check the lunar calendar. There is no moon for 5 days before and after the first day of each month. The most beautiful time is around the 15th day of the lunar calendar, when the moon is the roundest. There is no particularly good shooting location near Pinghu Autumn Moon. It is mainly a pavilion, as shown in the photo below. Well, that's all.

Pinghu Autumn Moon is one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake, located at the foot of Gushan Mountain in Hangzhou.

If you have time, you can enjoy tea and view the scenery here. But it is still a bit hot in October.

I personally think that Pinghu Qiuyue is one of the most beautiful scenic spots in the West Lake Scenic Area, with pavilions, towers, and green trees. It is like a landscape painting with light ink and light colors.

The scenic spots are occupied by businesses and have become more of a place for tourists to rest.

A very small place, not far from the Broken Bridge and the Residual Snow, with very nice old trees

/A clear moon is hard to come by, and colorful clouds are easy to disperse/

This is the verdict of Qingwen in Dream of the Red Chamber

The artistic conception depicted by the four words "Pinghu Qiuyue" is very beautiful.

However, it is not easy to see the moon clearly.

The moon in the picture was photoshopped in by me kk

However, in addition to enjoying the moon, there are many other things to see at night in West Lake.

I remember one time when my whole class in college chartered a boat for a night cruise on West Lake.

On the left is the looming traffic on Beishan Street

On the right is the Liuhe Pagoda and the Leifeng Pagoda.

In Pinghu Qiuyue, you can see the dazzling tower lights at the foot of the opposite mountain.

The Hubin District is a model of the night scene of China's second-tier cities with its colorful lights.

A newly carved stele with the words "Pinghu Qiuyue" written on it is just a stone tablet against the West Lake.

Pinghu Autumn Moon, Qingxing Palace Ruins, Su Causeway, Flower Harbor, Watching Fish, Nanping Evening Bell. The fog was a bit thick. We went up to Leifeng Pagoda at 4 pm, and the visibility was not very high. ~ Enjoy Leifeng Pagoda from multiple angles. If you want to eat in the evening, go to Xin Bailu Restaurant to eat authentic Suzhou cuisine!

One of the ten scenic spots of West Lake, you can see it by walking along the Baidi Bridge, close to Gushan.

It's a nice place with a wide view, but when I went there it was morning and cloudy, so I didn't even see a shadow, let alone the moon... This is a big pity~~~

Pinghu Lake is really quiet and peaceful, the water is clear, and you can see many small fish by the lake.

Pinghu Qiuyue is located at the west end of Baidi Bridge, the south foot of Gushan Mountain, and close to the Outer West Lake. As one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake, it is a place where you can enjoy the scenery of "the lake is full of autumn colors" when the autumn weather is clear and the moon is bright. However, in the early autumn afternoon, you should be satisfied if you take a photo of the scenic monument first, then go to the Pinghu Qiuyue terrace to see the green lotus and red flowers in the near distance and the lake and sky in the distance.

Whenever the autumn weather is refreshing, the surface of West Lake is as calm as a mirror, the bright autumn moon is in the sky, the moonlight and the lake water complement each other, giving a feeling of "the lake is full of autumn colors", so it is named "Pinghu Autumn Moon". The moon in the autumn night of West Lake has been recognized as a beautiful scene since ancient times, full of poetic and picturesque beauty.

In this autumn night, you can look far and wide, and see the bright moon in the sky, the lake and the sky are blue, the golden wind is refreshing, the water and the moon blend together, and you don't know what day it is.

Pinghu Autumn Moon is very beautiful. It seems that everything is beautiful beside the West Lake. Pinghu Autumn Moon, judging from the name, should be the most beautiful when there is moonlight at night. It's a pity that I didn't go there at night.

This scenic spot on the edge of West Lake is also one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake.

The boat ride is an introduction with explanations. The ancients were elegant and gave it a nice name.

Pinghu Autumn Moon is one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake. Pinghu Autumn Moon is best enjoyed in the lakeside courtyard in autumn.

2015-01: Autumn moon over West Lake.

It's a very quiet place, making people want to stay for a long time.

I'll post a few photos first and then give a review in a few days.

The "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake" landscape refers to: every time the autumn air is refreshing. The surface of the West Lake is as calm as a mirror, and the bright autumn moon is in the sky. The moonlight and the lake water complement each other, giving a feeling of "the lake is full of autumn light", so it is named "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake". It is indeed a good place to enjoy the scenery during the day, with a few small boats floating in the large lake. However, there are too many people, so it is impossible to take pictures. Just look at it, the focus is on the art gallery opposite.

Maybe it was late autumn when I went there, I didn't feel anything special

The moonlight and the lake water complement each other, giving a feeling of "the lake is full of autumn light", hence the name "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake". Such scenery can only be seen in certain seasons and is hard to come by.

No words can describe how good it is.

Pinghu Qiuyue is surrounded by water on three sides. The scenery of lakes and mountains here is very interesting, no matter spring, summer, autumn or winter, sunny or rainy. It can be said that "the water and mountains are bright and beautiful everywhere, and the sun and rain are always interesting".

In winter, the view did not meet my expectations.

Very comfortable, suitable for taking a walk and enjoying the breeze~~ There is also the Xiling Seal Society nearby

I feel that Pinghu Autumn Moon in this season is a bit ordinary and has no special features.

I can’t feel the autumn moon over the lake on New Year’s Day, but the water here is wide and the scenery is beautiful.

The moonlit night should be more impressive. However, during the day, you can also see the wide lake from the waterside pavilion, which is nice.

Come when there are few people, this is heaven. It is so beautiful that it is beyond words
