Qianlong Lake

Tourists enjoy a boat ride on Qianlong Lake.

Spreading across a charming 9.2 square kilometers, the Qianlong Lake Eco-Tourism Resort is located in Wangcheng county, 30 kilometers away from downtown area. Qianlong became an official wetland area in January 2015 as a testament to its immense environmental and touristic value.

Take a trip to Qianlong Lake to enjoy nature in all of its unadulterated glory. The water is clear and cool, the trees tall and generously shady, the scenery enthralling and romantic. Elegant villas stand beside the water, small islands rest in the midst of the vast lake like precious stones of jade, bridges of traditional architecture are dotted along the water's perimeter. Simply put, one look out over the vast lake is enough to get the pulses racing.

The local ecosystem is incredibly rich and supports more than 400 types of plants, 46 varieties of fish, and 126 kinds of birds. Qianlong Lake is the ideal place to take some time to enjoy life's simplest pleasures. Stroll along a lakeside path, sit on a bench and enjoy the sound of rustling leaves, take out a rowboat and watch clouds drift leisurely overhead.
