蓮花池,地處河北保定蓮池區(qū),是保定八景之一,稱“漣漪夏艷”,距今已有近800年的歷史。為全國重點文物保護單位,中國大園林之一。

Ancient Lotus Pond, originally named as Snow Fragrance Garden, was built by Runan King Zhangrou in Yuan Dynasty and completed in 1234. It was destroyed by earthquake in 1284, leaving only the deep pool water and luxuriant lotuses. After the Ming Dynasty (1644-1911), it was recorded as “Lotus Pond” in annuals.

Lotus Pond Academy was built there in Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), full of talents and renowned at home and abroad. Lotus Pond gradually became the palace for the emperor to enjoy the nature, and the emperor stopped over there several times while travelling. After several reconstructions, Ancient Lotus Pond reached its peak with magnificent pavilions, ancient books, cultural relics, precious jewelry, exotic flowers and plants, rare animal, gaily-painted pleasure-boats, towered ships and fragrant lotus. All of these are surrounded by the rivers and hills, like a beautiful painting or an elegant poem. Therefore, the famous Twelve Spots in Lotus Pond are composed by mountain, water, buildings, terrace, pavilions, halls, side rooms and sheds in good order, and get a reputation as “City like Peilai” (a fabled abode of immortals).

到了清代,興建了蓮池書院,一時間人才濟濟,揚名中外。蓮池又辟為皇帝的行宮,皇帝多次出游駐蹕。古蓮池幾經(jīng)修建,達到了極盛。園內(nèi)瓊樓玉閣,典籍文物,珠璣珍玩,以及奇花異卉,仙禽靈獸,畫舫樓船,芙蕖香荷,盡托于山山水水之間,交織成畫,交織成詩。山、水、樓、臺、亭、堂、廡、榭參差錯落,組成了著名的蓮池十二景,博得了“城市蓬萊”的美稱。
