East Lake is located at the foot Ruofen Mountain in eastern Shaoxing. It is a famous place of interest in the east of Zhe jiang.
Emperor Qinshihuang once traveled to Kuaiji and stopped to rest his horses and carriages here. From the Han Dynasty， masons chiseled the hill to get stones generation after generation. Man-made precipitous peaks and deep pools thus came into being， which look as it made by nature.
Taojunxuan， a noted person of Kuaiji in the Qing Dynasty had this landscape built in the style of the artistic conception of Taoyuan and named it East Lake.
Wonderful rocks， poolafter pool dotted with pavilions and winding paths， East lake are reputed as an epitome of Kuaijishan Mountain as pretty as west Lake. It has also enjoyed the reputation of being the first big potted landscape.
