[Fu] The warm sun dispelled the thick fog that locked the colorful salt pond, and the lake water sparkled in the morning light. The United States has Salt Lake City, and China has Yuncheng, Shanxi. For thousands of years, the salt lake has selflessly become a natural salt field. The snow-capped Zhongtiao Mountain in the distance dimly reflects the lake, making the water and sky one color.
[Fu] The Pond God has protected the people for generations. The Chishen Temple was first built in the 12th year of the Dali period of the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Daizong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yu, named the Yuncheng Salt Lake "Baoying Lingqing Lake", ordered a temple to be built in the salt lake, conferred the name "Lingqing Gong" on the lake god, and included it in the national sacrificial rites. The temple was renovated and sacrificial ceremonies were held during the Ming and Qing dynasties.
