[edit] Description
Yushan Mountain-Shanghu Lake is in Changshu City, consists of Yushan Mountain area and shanghu Lake area. It is hard for visitors to this tranquil, culture-steeped town not to be attracted to the beauty of Shanghu, or Lake Shang, much the same as Hangzhou's West Lake captivates tourists.
There is a difference, though. Shanghu is not as famous as Xihu, which was likened by Song Dynasty poet Su Dongpo to Xishi, the most beautiful woman in ancient China, described by Su as "forever beautiful with or without makeup." Shanghu lake is close to Yushan Mountain, was named after Jiang Shang, known more popularly as Jiang Taigong, a legendary man of great wisdom who once fished by this lake when he was fleeing the tyranny of the Shang dynasty. Today, Jiang's stone statue adorns the shimmering Shanghu, holding a fishing pole without a hook and bait. It combines the beautiful scenery and the scenery of humanities and mingles the sight-seeing and entertainment as a whole.
