Winter

Come to Yuantouzhu to find water elves,

At the invitation of winter.

Take a boat trip around Taihu Lake, watch and feed the birds.

Have a close look at the elves of Taihu.

These elves, black-headed gulls, from afar,

Are light and elegant dancers.

Flying over Taihu Lake every day,

Leading a comfortable life,

Ready to embrace the winter,

In the Gorgeous Yuantouzhu.

Thousands of piles of snow by the Cuihu Lake,

Adds a gentle touch to the winter,

Different from the extensive snow-covered lands.

Wanlang Bridge, a unique and popular tourist spot,

Remains the best place for lake-viewing, sunset/sunrise-watching, and snow-appreciating.

On a snowy day, tea makes a perfect day.

Drinking hot tea at a rest in the Teahouse of Huanbi Complex,

And the splendid scenery is just adequate for pleasure.

Have you eaten the Laba porridge yesterday?

Look at the Guangfu Temple covered with snow,

And it seems quieter in this blanket.

The plum blossom is in bud, and if winter is coming, will spring be far behind?
