Three Pools Mirroring the Moon, Stone pagodas in West Lake, China.
Three hollow stone pagodas rise two meters above the water surface, arranged in an equilateral triangle formation measuring sixty-two meters on each side.
The original stone pagodas were constructed during the Northern Song Dynasty to mark a no-planting zone, later reconstructed during the Ming Dynasty period.
During the Mid-autumn Festival, locals place candles inside the pagodas and cover the holes with white paper, creating multiple reflections on the lake.
Visitors can access Three Pools Mirroring the Moon from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with an entrance fee of 45 yuan including boat transportation.
Each pagoda features five round holes on its surface that, when illuminated from within, create the effect of multiple moons reflecting on the water.
