On the shore of the lake, many trees were planted.
Tall and straight Chinese parasol trees, round and dark green pagoda trees, green pine trees like an ocean, upright cypress trees, persimmon trees covered in red lantern-like fruits, and elegant, swaying willow trees. The most numerous were the maple trees sprinkled throughout, forming clusters of red clouds. They were red as fire, dazzling the eyes.
As they gradually approached, they could see the clear water of the lake and the reflected fiery red scene. The aquatic plants in the lake had also begun to turn yellow, competing with the fiery red reflection in the water, making it even more beautiful.
The most abundant trees were the ancient Chinese parasol trees with lush branches and twisted roots that lined the lakeside. Their overlapping and staggered canopies were a deep, cloud-like green.
