#Xuzhou is located in the northwest of Jiangsu Province, at the junction of Jiangsu, Shandong, Henan and Anhui provinces. Its geographical position is very important. It is known as "the thoroughfare of five provinces" and "the place for military strategists". It is the junction of the east coast and the central region, the Shanghai Economic Zone and the Bohai economic circle. Beijing Shanghai railway and Longhai Railway meet here, and Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal passes by the city. Highways extend in all directions, and serve as an important water and land transportation hub and an important "crossroads" for economic links between East and West, North and south. It was officially established in 1945, and now has jurisdiction over four counties, namely Feng, Pei, Tongshan and Suining, two county-level cities, namely Pizhou and Xinyi, and five districts, namely Yunlong, Gulou, Quanshan, Jiuli and Jiawang. The total area of the city is 11258 square kilometers, including 963 square kilometers in the urban area. The total population is more than 9 million, and the annual average temperature is 14 ℃.
Xuzhou, with a long history of more than 6000 years, is the oldest city in Jiangsu Province. Liu Bang, the first emperor of cloth clothing in China, was born and made his fortune in the Han Dynasty. The cultural remains of the Han Dynasty in Xuzhou are represented by the "three wonders of the Han Dynasty" - Han tombs, Han painted statues, and Han terracotta warriors and horses. In addition, the Han Emperor's ancestral mausoleum, Xiang Yu's horse stage, the Jiulishan ancient war site where Chu and Han fought fiercely, the place where the overlord bid farewell to his concubine, the tomb of Yu's concubine, and the gefengtai where Liu Bang returned to his hometown to sing the famous poem "song of the wind" for thousands of years. Other cultural relics in Xuzhou include Peng Zujing, Peng zuci, Fanghe Pavilion, Huanglou, Dongpo stone bed, Kuaiya Pavilion, cliff inscriptions in Tang Dynasty, swallow tower in Guan Panpan, big stone Buddha in Northern Wei Dynasty, Xinghua temple, the first temple in Northern Jiangsu, folk custom museum featuring Ming and Qing dwellings, Memorial Tower Garden for martyrs in Huaihai Campaign, etc.
Xuzhou's natural scenery has both the sudden atmosphere of the north and the beautiful Zhong Ling of the south. The water quality of Yunlong Lake is clear, like a pearl inlaid in the south of the city. The Lushan Mountain Forest Park, the old Yellow River scenery belt, the Yunlong Lakeside Park and many landscape road projects make Xuzhou full of beautiful scenery.
Xuzhou is gradually becoming a well-known tourist attraction at home and abroad with perfect tourism facilities, continuous improvement of comprehensive tourism reception capacity, continuous growth of tourism reception number and total tourism income.
Hello, everyone. Welcome to Xuzhou to watch the 11th Asian Triathlon championship. The competition started in 20xx and moved to Yunlong Lake in Xuzhou. This is the third time so far.
Triathlon was first proposed by Brigadier General John Collins in 1972. It is a new type of sports that conquers nature and self. People are required to finish swimming, cycling and long-distance running in a row. It not only requires athletes to have excellent physical fitness and speed, but also needs to have considerable skills, so it is favored by more and more sports fans.
Today, there are 14 competitors from 14 countries and regions. What they are going to do is the Olympic standard distance, namely: 1.5km swimming, 40km cycling and 10km running. We are now watching the competition next to the moon shadow sail scenic spot in the Lakeside Park. In front of us is the ten thousand people swimming pool in the East Lake of Yunlong Lake.
Well, with the starting gun, the iron men jumped into the lake one after another, and the calm water of the lake suddenly began to boil. Xuzhou Yunlong Lake scenic spot is surrounded by mountains in the East and West and faces the city in the north. The lake is vast and beautiful. It is an excellent place for tourism and leisure. With its wide surface and good water quality, it is very suitable for swimming, rowing and other water sports.
Yunlong Lake was originally named Shigou lake, but later it was named after the mountain. When Su Shi, a writer of the Northern Song Dynasty, was the magistrate of Xuzhou, he was fond of this lake and had a fantastic idea: "if we can draw water from dingtang Lake in the upper reaches The lake is like the West Lake, while Xuzhou is like Hangzhou. However, Su Shi had no such wish. On December 11, 1994, Yunlong Lake and Hangzhou West Lake became "sister lakes". However, the West Lake is charming, while the Cloud Lake is beautiful; the West Lake is gentle, but the Cloud Lake is solemn; the West Lake is thick, but the Cloud Lake is light; the West Lake is deep, but the Cloud Lake is magnanimous. Its water area is 5.8 square kilometers. It is divided into East and West Lakes by a willow dike. Around the lake, there are 18 scenic spots, such as "boating in the Cloud Lake", "water world", "ten mile long dike", "hanging hook on the lakeside", "Fishing Song of lotus wind", "apricot blossom and spring rain", "poetry Gallery of lake and mountain" and "charm of strange stones". The scenic spots are decorated with jade beads and colorful in four seasons.
The building opposite us on the island in the middle of the lake is the largest freshwater fish palace in Asia. There are exhibition halls for rare fish, ecological simulation hall, tropical fish exhibition hall, Crystal Palace and video broadcasting hall. There are Chinese sturgeon, alligator, giant salamander and rouge fish, Japanese carp and Egyptian catfish. A group of fish swim freely with thousands of postures, and people walk among them like they are in a fairyland. Well, now some of the swimmers have finished the swimming competition and started to ride bicycles. They will cycle around the lake eight times. They are now the first to come to the ten mile long dike "Su dike". Because it was built by Su Dongpo when he knew Xuzhou to prevent the flood of the lake and mobilize the people, it has the same name as the "Su dike" of the West Lake in Hangzhou.
On both sides of the levee, there are rows of willows with peach trees between them. In early spring, willows are green and peach flowers are scarlet. On the west lake behind the levee, lotus flowers bloom in midsummer every summer. It is "peach trees and willows are green on the east bank in spring, lotus flowers are colorful on the south bank in midsummer, maple leaves are burning on the West Bank in late autumn, and pine trees are proud of snow on the north bank in winter". However, the most beautiful time of Cloud Lake is night. There is a saying that "summer lake is not better than spring lake, Spring Lake is not better than snow lake, snow lake is not better than dusk Lake". At the beginning of the Lantern Festival, Yunlong Lake is extremely enchanting. On the night of the Mid Autumn Festival, when I boarded the Yunlong mountain viewing platform, I saw the bright moon in the sky and the bright lights around the lake. The breeze comes slowly, the water waves are rippling slightly, and the light and moon shadow fluctuate with the waves, as beautiful as gold and broken jade.
Now the iron men come to the east bank, skim the water park and Jinshan tower, and March at the foot of the lush Yunlong mountain. The hillside on their right is full of apricot flowers, which is called "Apricot Flower Village", and Su Dongpo's poem "apricot flowers are the same color for 30 Li" is described here.
In the middle of spring, the breeze blows, the fallen trees are colorful, and the layers of forest are all dyed. It's really charming. Now the athletes are passing by Xuzhou Han Dynasty stone Museum. Han Dynasty stone relief is one of the three treasures of Jiangsu Cultural Relics and one of the three unique Han Dynasty stones in Xuzhou. Xuzhou is one of the places where the Han Dynasty stone carvings are concentrated. More than 700 pieces of Han Dynasty stone carvings have been unearthed. Covering an area of 10000 square meters, the museum is composed of a group of buildings imitating the Han and Tang Dynasties. It has a collection of more than 500 pieces of Han Dynasty stone carvings. From it, we can not only watch the singing and dancing of the immortal world and the luxury of the rich and noble families, but also see the joys and sorrows of the common people and the hardships of labor. Visiting Xuzhou Han Dynasty stone art museum is like being in a magnificent historical Gallery, which can bring people enlightenment of knowledge and enjoyment of art. OK, let's have a look first and come back to the game later.

It has been a thousand years since the last hatred came true. On December 11, 1994, Yunlong Lake and Hangzhou West Lake became "sister lakes".

Yunlong Lake, located in the southwest of Xuzhou City, is the main scenic spot of Yunlong scenic spot. In 1984, it was approved as a provincial scenic spot by Jiangsu provincial government. It connects Hanshan in the west, yunlongshan in the East, dashantou and Zhushan in the south. The original water surface is 5.8 square kilometers, and the land is 5.6 square kilometers. It is the ten sister lake of Hangzhou West Lake, bigger than Hangzhou West Lake, with clear water, green mountains and vast expanse. It is the resplendent pearl of Xuzhou.
Yunlong Lake in Xuzhou is adjacent to Hanshan in the west, Yunlong mountain in the East, dashantou and Zhushan in the south. The original water surface is 5.8 square kilometers, and the land area is 5.6 square kilometers, including the newly developed Xiaonanhu scenic spot (with a total area of 1.661 square kilometers, including water area of 0.962 square kilometers). The water surface area of Yunlong Lake has reached 6.76 square kilometers, and the land area is 6.3 square kilometers (including Xiaonanhu scenic spot). Bounded by Huzhong Road, the perimeter of East Lake is about 8.1 km, West Lake is about 7 km, and the perimeter of the whole lake is about 12 km (excluding Xiaonanhu).
Yunlong Lake is full of mountains and waters, with beautiful scenery, beautiful scenery and brilliant scenery. Since ancient times, the natural beauty of its three green mountains and one city has attracted many tourists. When Su Shi, a litterateur of the Northern Song Dynasty, knew Xuzhou, he was fond of this lake and had a fantastic idea: "if the water of dingtang Lake in the upper reaches can be diverted, the North Lake will be like Hangzhou." However, Su Shi had such a wish for thousands of years. Today, with the reform and opening up, it has become a reality. The West Lake is delicate and beautiful; the West Lake is gentle and solemn; the West Lake is heavy and the Yunlong Lake is light; the West Lake is deep and the Yunlong Lake is magnanimous. On December 11, 1994, Yunlong Lake and Hangzhou West Lake became sister lakes.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are now located in Yunlong Lake scenic area. The total area of Yunlong Lake scenic spot is 11.4 square kilometers, the surrounding mountain forest area is 5.6 square kilometers, and the water surface area of Yunlong Lake is 5.8 square kilometers. One lake has vast waves and green hills on three sides, forming a natural scenery with mountains on three sides and water on one side. If you walk along the lake, the grass on the bank is lush and the willows are green. In April and spring, the peach blossoms and the willows are green. In midsummer, a pool of lotus flowers on the south bank is just blooming, and the pomegranate trees are as red as fire. In late autumn, although there are colorful fallen leaves, there are maple forests all over the mountains. In severe winter, there is a heavy snow all over the country, which shows that the lake is full of green waves and a few red plums.
Yunlong Lake was a depression in ancient times. According to the ancient records of Xuzhou, "there are two mountains in the East and west of Jiuli in the south of the city, which are commonly known as bojiwa because they are similar to bojiwa". The wa became a lake for a long time. In the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, because the lake water was often overflowing, it was made into a stone dog Town, so it got the name of shigouhu. It was officially renamed Yunlong Lake in 1963.
"If we can draw water from dingtang in the upper reaches, this lake will be like the West Lake, while Xuzhou will be like Hangzhou." As early as 900 years ago, Su Dongpo, a great writer of the Northern Song Dynasty, stood on Yunlong mountain when he was the magistrate of Xuzhou, facing the small lake at his feet. Perhaps Su Shi himself would not have thought that after 920 xx years, his imagination became a reality: in 1994, Hangzhou West Lake and Xuzhou Yunlong Lake became sister lakes. After listening to this introduction, you must not say that the two sisters of West Lake and Yunlong Lake are a little far away from each other in appearance. However, you may have heard a poem: "the water is bright, the sky is clear, and the mountains are clear and rainy. If you compare the West Lake with the West Lake, it's always appropriate to wear light and heavy makeup. " Of course, this poem is not about the Yunlong Lake in Xuzhou, but the beautiful scenery of Hangzhou West Lake in Su Shi's works. But it is also very appropriate to use it to describe the Yunlong Lake. Su Shi wrote the above poem when he was an official in Hangzhou, but when he was the magistrate of Xuzhou, he also left a beautiful article like "the story of the crane Pavilion" which is handed down from generation to generation: "at the turn of spring and summer, the grass and trees are in the sky, the snow and moon are in the sky, the wind and rain are in the dark, and the sky is full of changes." The story of the crane releasing Pavilion is very popular and has been handed down for thousands of years, which makes Yunlong landscape famous in the world. Jiujie Yunlong mountain, which stretches for three kilometers on the East Bank of Yunlong Lake, is as green as a dragon. There are many places of interest: the Xinghua Buddhist temple is built on the mountain, with a stone Buddha of the Northern Wei Dynasty as high as 11.5 meters, which is known as the three brick hall and three Zhang Buddha; the stone bed of Dongpo, the crane releasing Pavilion, the crane drinking spring and other historical sites also make people Miss Su Shi's immortal achievements and natural and unrestrained anecdotes; the 40 calligraphy inscriptions of Wang Xizhi, Huang Gongwang, Dong Qichang and Qianlong make Qingshan's ink treasures fragrant.
It can be said that Xuzhou and Hangzhou are inextricably linked because Su Dongpo, a great writer of the Northern Song Dynasty, first built Yunlong Lake in Xuzhou and accumulated valuable experience before arriving in Hangzhou. This is the historical background why the West Lake is more beautiful than Yunlong Lake. There is a Su Causeway in West Lake of Hangzhou, and there is a Su Causeway in Xuzhou, but it is not in the lake, but a road in Xuzhou City. At that time, Su Dongpo had just arrived in Xuzhou and the Yellow River burst. Xuzhou was besieged by the worst flood in a hundred years for more than 70 days. Later, Su Dongpo built a levee to control the flood, and the water retreated. This levee became a main road in the city, and has been preserved to this day. There is also a place near the ancient Yellow River in Xuzhou where "the flood falls". It is said that Su Xiaomei, the sister of Su Dongpo, threw water into the town to retreat the flood in order to retreat the flood. Su Dongpo, who has been the governor of Xuzhou for one year and 11 months, has been praised for his diligence and love of the people for nearly a thousand years. In Xuzhou restaurants, there is also a special dish called "Dongpo meat". It is said that in order to thank Su Dongpo, the people piled up the pork into hills. Su Dongpo had to pickle all the meat and "give it back" to the people. Xuzhou Dongpo meat is also called "give back meat". Please look this way. The tower on our right is called Su Gong tower. It was built in memory of Su Shi.
Yunlong Lake is full of mountains and waters, with beautiful scenery. A jade belt like Huzhong road divides the lake into East Lake and West Lake. The road around the lake is broad and flat, with green willows and green water. On the lake, the sceneries look at each other, scattered all over the place. I think after visiting Yunlong Lake, you will naturally give out such admiration: "the dyke is full of willows, no less than Hangzhou lake.".
On the West Bank of the lake, the modern building is the largest freshwater fish palace in Asia. Further on is the Lakeside Park, which is a modern high-tech park integrating sightseeing, catering and vacation. It is 4038 meters long and 140 meters wide, with a total green area of more than 80%. Here will be dynamic and static, natural and artificial carving, garden green space and European architecture clever match together, give people a different style of aesthetic enjoyment.
