北海南巷半微凉西海东城过薄凉
[bĕi hăi nán xiàng bàn wēi liáng xī hăi dōng chéng guò bó liáng]
"Slightly cool in the south lane of Beihai, thinly cold over the eastern city of Xihai". This poetic description paints a picture of two contrasting yet equally serene and cool places. It may evoke a sense of distance, loneliness, and melancholy in beautiful surroundings.
