Yanggongdi Beiting

Yang Mengxuan, Sichuan Yudu people, when Hangzhou Zhifu, once tried to clean up the silt of the West Lake, so the people of Hangzhou built Yanggongdi in order to commemorate Yang Mengxuan, and erected Yanggongdi monument on the West Lake.

Yanggongdi Beiting is rarely seen by tourists, because Yanggongdi Beiting is near Weizhuang next to Yanggongdi. Tourists usually visit the route to cross six bridges on Sudi to see the scenery of the West Lake along the way.

Yanggongdi is one of the "West Lake Three Dikes" with the name of Baidi and Sudi. Because Yang Mengxuan presided over the excavation, it was named Yanggongdi. Yanggongdi is located in the west of the West Lake. There are six bridges on the embankment. Kangyou was famous in the "desolate white horse city Zhongxu, dreaming into the West Lake number six bridges. Who can see the great river and mountains? The sound of the waves broke the tide in Zhejiang. Just written in the second time, Ming Xu ruled for 16 years (1503) and became Hangzhou Zhizhou. At that time, the West Lake was silted, and Yang Mengxu carried out dredging, clearing nearly 3,500 mu of fields formed by the water surface of the West Lake, and building a north-south direction on the Xili Lake with dredging and grass. From the north, Renshou Mountain, Maling Mountain foot, south to Chishan Mountain, Qianliangsi Lingdong, connecting Dingjia Mountain, Mianniu Mountain, etc., the sixth bridge was built on the embankment. The latter people commemorated Yang Mengxuan, calling this embankment "Yanggong Dike", and the sixth bridge on the embankment was "Liliu Bridge".

Hangzhou West Lake is a famous attraction in China, so there is no one less, especially Baidi, Sudi, Leifeng Tower, these famous attractions have more people, but this Yanggongdi has fewer people, the scenery is better, and the cultural relics are not in the minority.

Yanggongdi is my favorite place. There are not so many people in Sudi Baidi, but the scenery is particularly good. The most recommended thing is to ride a bicycle here to play slowly. Of course, it is also suitable for running.
