Hongjiannao was also known as the "Tears of Wang Zhao Jun" derived from the local and beautiful legend in the ancient China. People are saying that Wang Zhaojun who was a palace lady and was sent far from home and kindred to marry a Hun chieftain in those days. She would finally say goodbye to the Central Plains, got off her horse and turned again towards her hometown.
At the thought of the miles upon miles of remote native town from then on, a fear that his life would never come back to her country, she instantly felt thousands of wretchedness and extremely indefinable sadness. The sight that never fails to move her and set her thinking made her eyes water for seven days and seven nights, then the Hongjiannao lake covering an area of about 70 square kilometers is finally formed.
The Queen Mother was deeply impressed by the thing, and sent seven fairies come down to the human world, each of the fairies held one splendid belt and walked towards from seven different directions, then came the seven intermittent rivers flowing into the "Tears of Wang Zhao Jun" at the same time.
