"Huanhuan"----the mascot of the West Lake Expo comes from a goldfish in the West Lake turning into the shape of "Three Pools Mirroring the Moon", one of the Ten Views of West Lake. "Three Pools Mirroring the Moon" is the landscape typical of the West Lake; the lotus flower in full bloom is the flower typical of West Lake while lotus root products are the typical folk food to treat guests in Hangzhou. The shape of the stone pagoda and the lotus in full bloom in the view of "Three Pools Mirroring the Moon" constitute a vivid symbol of this beautiful ancient capital. "Huanhuan", a lovely image coming from the personalized stone pagoda, with a lotus flower in a hand and both arms stretching, welcomes guests from all directions of the world, which demonstrates that the West Lake Expo is open to the outside at all directions.

The image of "Huanhuan" embodies the beauty of Hangzhou's mountains, rivers, city environment and people, and displays Hangzhou's humanistic spirit featured by "elegance, harmony, grandeur, and openness".
