At that time, Gejiu did not discharge floods like ordinary cities, but chose to build dikes around the lake to stop floods.
Gejiu City set up a flood control committee to mobilize the people of the whole city to fight floods and rescue. The 523 site of Yunxi Company is responsible for organizing 1500 retired soldiers to build dams along urban depressions to contain floods. A plateau lake with an area of 0.8 square kilometers and a water storage capacity of 5 million cubic meters was born and was named Jinhu by Ba Jin, a famous literary master at home and abroad.
Thanks to Wukong for inviting me!
Getting old is undoubtedly beautiful. There is both a unrestrained beauty and a graceful beauty. There is the legendary Great Xishan Mountain and the God-given Golden Lake. So, why do you say that an ancient golden lake fell from the sky? Come and have a look with me!
Gejiu, Xi Du is located in the south of Yunnan Province, about 280 kilometers away from Kunming. Yunnan province is rich in tin, which is one of the national bases and is known as the "tin capital". This city, which was included in the Encyclopedia Britannica, is the headquarters of Yunnan Tin Company. Gejiu is a metallurgical industrial and mining city based on tin and prospered by tin. The Red River still has the saying that "there is tin first, then there is a city". Tin is not what it used to be. In 2008, it was listed as the first batch of tens of thousands of workers who were unemployed and laid off. At the end of the road, there are a group of left-behind tin miners who are unwilling to leave the mine. Their embarrassing life is a portrayal of the city's difficult transformation.
In the mining area of nearly 100 square kilometers in the north mountain of Gejiu, the area of mined-out areas, mountain cracks and landslides caused by mining has reached 40 square kilometers. However, according to Zhao Gang, the former Party secretary of Gejiu, it may take 65,438+000 years to completely complete this transformation. But now Gejiu is mining nepheline.
Now, Gejiu is transforming from a resource-based industrial city to a cultural tourism city. The establishment of a large number of cultural associations such as the Han Culture Association in Gejiu City, and the development of festivals such as Dragon Boat Festival and Dragon Boat Race have made efforts for the transformation of Gejiu City.
Gejiu Jinhu is located in the center of Gejiu, also known as Gejiu Lake. It is no exaggeration to say that the Golden Lake fell from the sky. In history, ancient water was as expensive as oil, but when the rainy season came, the surrounding landscape slipped away along the sinkhole at the foot of Yinshan Mountain and disappeared without a trace. In fact, the real Golden Lake is an artificial lake formed by heavy rain and accumulated water. After all, what falls from the sky is just a legend.
Liu Kaiqu, a famous sculptor, praised Gejiu's West Lake-like scenery of "two mountains and three gardens surrounded by green, one city with mountains and half a city with lakes" and called it Florence, China. Visitors who have been to an old place also have a deep memory of Jinhu: the scenery of "the city is by the water and the city is in the water" is full of vitality during the day and brightly lit at night.
It turns out that before the founding of New China, there was no Golden Lake in Gejiu. How did Jinhu come from?
Simply put, a rain formed a lake, which sounds like a legend. From August 1954 to August 10, after three days and three nights of heavy rain, a miracle appeared. A lot of water does not fall into the water, but gushes out from the sinkhole. Coupled with the rolling landscape, factories and houses in low-lying areas were quickly submerged, and an old city became a Wang Yang.
There has been such a continuous rainstorm in the old city. The continuous rainfall in the urban area is 334.6 mm, and the maximum water output of Laoyin Mountain is 2 cubic meters per second. The factories and houses in the low-lying areas were quickly flooded, and half of the old city was turned into Wang Yang. Traffic was interrupted, and Yunnan Tin Machinery Factory and Refinery were forced to move.
Gejiu City set up a flood control committee to mobilize the people of the whole city to fight floods and rescue. The 523 site of Yunxi Company is responsible for organizing 1500 retired soldiers to participate in the construction of dams along urban depressions to stop floods, and a plateau lake with an area of 0.8 square kilometers and a storage capacity of 5 million cubic meters was born.
In the last century 1960, Mr. Ba Jin was invited to Gejiu, Xi Du, and stayed in this small border town for six days. During this period, faced with a clear golden lake, brand-new buildings by the lake, vibrant factories and groups of high-spirited workers in the West Side of New China, he must be deeply touched. He not only recorded the tin miners who worked hard in the mine with a pen, but also named Gejiu Lake "Jinhu".
Jinhu is the center of displaying ancient cultural landscape, urban culture, modern culture and tin culture. Along the Jinhu Lake, there are gymnasiums, gymnasiums and tennis courts in the whole province. The most striking thing is the horseshoe-shaped stadium designed by artistic means. The stadium is ingeniously integrated with the urban landscape from seat positioning to modeling to color matching. The audience can enjoy the city scenery while watching the live game. At the same time, citizens outside the venue can also see the activities inside and outside the venue, forming internal and external interaction, which is usually open.
Because the water in Jinhu has become clear, it has created another national fitness environment for an old citizen. Now there are dragon boat races in Jinhu every year, and Gejiu is also a paragliding training base with provincial conditions. The athletes took off from the top of Laoyinshan Mountain and landed on Jinhu Lake. Colorful paragliders fly over the city, decorating the romance and fashion of Xi Du.
There was no lake in Gejiu. Because the terrain is low and it rains all the time, it is artificially enclosed to form an artificial lake. Later, Ba Jin named it Jinhu.

Gejiu Jinhu is located in the center of Gejiu, also known as Gejiu Lake. It is no exaggeration to say that the Golden Lake fell from the sky. In history, ancient water was as expensive as oil, but when the rainy season came, the surrounding landscape slipped away along the sinkhole at the foot of Yinshan Mountain and disappeared without a trace.
1August, 954, three days and three nights of heavy rain, a miracle appeared. A lot of water does not fall into the water, but gushes out from the sinkhole. Coupled with the rolling landscape, factories and houses in low-lying areas were quickly submerged, and the old city became a Wang Yang. At this critical juncture, Gejiu Municipal Committee made a correct decision according to the instructions of the State Council and Yunnan provincial party committees and governments: to stop floods and build dikes around lakes, so as to turn disasters into blessings and benefit the people. Thus, a plateau lake with an area of 0.8 square kilometers and a water storage capacity of 5 million square meters was born. After the formation of this flying lake, the Gejiu Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government named it Jinhu on the advice of experts, which means that Gejiu is rich in metals, the lake water is hard to come by, and Gejiu construction is in a golden age. Although the administrative map has been named Jinhu, most citizens are still used to calling Jinhu Lake "Gejiu Lake".

Jinhu is picturesque all year round. The city is in the mountains, the lake is in the city, the green hills reflect the clear water, and the lake is home. Colorful flowers are in full bloom, warm in winter and cool in summer.

Today's Jinhu is the crystallization of the wisdom of the old people, a flower in the flood ~ ~ ~
