三潭印月 Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon

We arrived at Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon, one of the "Ten Scenes of Xī Hú".
Three Ponds Mirroring the Moon is an artificial island made from mud in the bottom of a West Lake in 1607 of the Ming Dynasty.
It is the maximum one in three islands that float on the West Lake.
There are four ponds inside the island, and of each is connected with the veered nine bridges.
Because, it is said "The person can advance along the bend bridge, however,the evil spirit only goes to straight and cannot finish bending and falls into water".
The island is very beautiful like a garden on the water with the green trees.

Unfortunately, it is not good weather on the day.
However, there seemed to be a kind of flavor all the better for rain.

Everyone takes photos though there is strong wind and rain.
Of course, me too.

This is a very popular spot for the tourists.

Do you want to wear the traditional costume for the photo?

It's almost time to go back to the down town.

A lot of people are waiting for the boat.
Have attention to your company.
Actually, I couldn't encounter my husband almost half hours!
