Donghu (East Lake), formed by the confluence of nine rivers, is situated in Pinghu City, east China's Zhejiang Province. In ancient times, it was known as "Nine-Dragon Port" because, when seen from above, the lake and its surrounding rivers look like nine dragons playing with a pearl. In Chinese, people call it "Jiulong Xizhu." The lake lies at the heart of a scenic view where visitors can enjoy numerous places of interest.
