The snow scene of the west lake is enjoyed very high praise by people, especially the view of "malting snow at broken bridge". Why it is called as "malting snow on the broken bridge", there are different sayings. One of them is that it snows almost every winter in Hangzhou and when the sun comes out after snowfall, the snow on the sunny side of the bridge melts first, while the snow on the shady side still lingers. Looked at a distance or from a nearby hill, the bridge appears to be broken. It is a favorite stopover for you. Especially on fine winter days after a snow, you may stand on the bridge to feast your eyes on the snow scene far and near. Distant hills, clad in white, grow more enchanting. The famous Chinese folk story "The Tale of White Snake" brings the broken bridge some romance.
