Heading to the Flower Harbour Park.”Viewing Fish at Flower Harbor”, is one of the ten views at the West Lake, a famous scenic area in China. This view is to the southwest of Su Causeway. Emperor Kangxi arrived at the West Lake in 1699, and he was so taken by what he saw that he wrote an epigraph with the title “Viewing Fish at Flower Harbor.” A stele with the epigraph was erected by the side of the fishpond. Later when Emperor Qianlong traveled around Jiangnan (the area to the south of the lower reaches of the Changjiang River), he also visited the West Lake, also moved to compose verses, and he had them engraved as an epigraph on the back of Kangxi’s stele. One of them is “At the Flower Harbor under the Mountain of flowers, flowers touch fish, and fish kiss flowers.”
