Three Pools Mirroring the Moon

next
This is one of the 10 attractions of West Lake. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, candles are lit in the stone lamp posts in the Three Pools, and the holes are covered with paper. When the candle lights are reflected in the lake, they present a wonderful picture of "a moon in the sky and three more in the lake."
