莲花池,地处河北保定莲池区,是保定八景之一,称“涟漪夏艳”,距今已有近800年的历史。为全国重点文物保护单位,中国大园林之一。

Ancient Lotus Pond, originally named as Snow Fragrance Garden, was built by Runan King Zhangrou in Yuan Dynasty and completed in 1234. It was destroyed by earthquake in 1284, leaving only the deep pool water and luxuriant lotuses. After the Ming Dynasty (1644-1911), it was recorded as “Lotus Pond” in annuals.

古莲池初名雪香园,为元代汝南王张柔建造,建成于公元1234年。公元1284年被地震震毁,仅存深池清水,繁茂荷花,明代以后的志书,就把它随俗称为“莲花池”。

Lotus Pond Academy was built there in Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), full of talents and renowned at home and abroad. Lotus Pond gradually became the palace for the emperor to enjoy the nature, and the emperor stopped over there several times while travelling. After several reconstructions, Ancient Lotus Pond reached its peak with magnificent pavilions, ancient books, cultural relics, precious jewelry, exotic flowers and plants, rare animal, gaily-painted pleasure-boats, towered ships and fragrant lotus. All of these are surrounded by the rivers and hills, like a beautiful painting or an elegant poem. Therefore, the famous Twelve Spots in Lotus Pond are composed by mountain, water, buildings, terrace, pavilions, halls, side rooms and sheds in good order, and get a reputation as “City like Peilai” (a fabled abode of immortals).

到了清代,兴建了莲池书院,一时间人才济济,扬名中外。莲池又辟为皇帝的行宫,皇帝多次出游驻跸。古莲池几经修建,达到了极盛。园内琼楼玉阁,典籍文物,珠玑珍玩,以及奇花异卉,仙禽灵兽,画舫楼船,芙蕖香荷,尽托于山山水水之间,交织成画,交织成诗。山、水、楼、台、亭、堂、庑、榭参差错落,组成了著名的莲池十二景,博得了“城市蓬莱”的美称。
