Shichahai Ⅲ

Currently, there are ten famous Taoist and Buddhist temples and several formal royal mansions and gardens remaining around the lake. The most well known are the Prince Gong's Mansion and the Prince Chun Mansion, the residence of Soong Ching Ling, wife of Dr Sun Yat-sen and China's late honorary president, the residence of Guo Muruo (poet), and the residence of Mei Lanfang (great master of Peking Opera).

In the evening, standing on the Yinding Bridge provides the best view of Shichahai Lake. In summer, visitors prefer to go boating on the lake and songs and music. Some young people like to float small paper boats with lit candles inside on the water. All of sudden, it gives the feeling of boating on the Qinhuai River in Nanjing.
