The Yuntai Aquatic Flower Garden is a national AA-level tourist attraction.

The Lianyungang Yuntai Agricultural Eco-Tourism Area (Yuntai Farm, Yuntai Aquatic Flower Garden) is situated at the southern foot of Yuntai Mountain within Yuntai Farm, near the city center and close to attractions such as Donglei, Yuwang, and Kongquegou. With convenient transportation and a prime location, the area covers about 20,000 mu. It primarily centers around modern, high-efficiency, and facility-based agriculture, striving to create a natural, harmonious, pleasant, green, ecological, vibrant, and uniquely rural environment. The goal is to establish a well-known agricultural eco-tourism and rural tourism destination both within the city and across the province.

The Yuntai Farm Agricultural Eco-Tourism Area has currently developed a 11,000-mu lotus root production base, a 500-mu Yuntai Aquatic Flower Garden, a 600-mu Yuxiang Fruit and Vegetable Picking Garden, a 3,000-mu export vegetable demonstration zone, a factory-based seedling center, and a one-square-kilometer agricultural product processing and sightseeing park. The area features well-developed facilities and beautiful scenery, making it an ideal leisure, vacation, tourism, and sightseeing destination for residents of Lianyungang.

1. 10,000-Mu Lotus Root Base: Covering 11,000 mu, this area is planted with shallow-water lotus in large patches. From May to October, the vast lotus ponds form the picturesque scene of "endless green lotus leaves stretching to the sky, and lotus flowers glowing red under the sun."

3. Yuxiang Fruit and Vegetable Picking Garden: Covering 500 mu, it utilizes solar greenhouses and steel-frame greenhouses to produce picking items such as tomatoes, cucumbers, watermelons, and melons. The garden operates year-round without interruption, offering distinctive and well-balanced products. Visitors can personally pick fresh fruits and vegetables in the greenhouses, experiencing the joy of a bountiful harvest.

The Yuntai Farm Aquatic Flower Viewing Garden has planted nearly 10,000 mu of lotuses, including more than ten varieties of lotuses and water lilies. It is currently one of the largest aquatic flower planting and viewing areas in Lianyungang. The flower viewing garden was developed and invested in by Yuntai Farm two years ago. After careful planning and the addition of tourism facilities, it is now fully equipped to accommodate large numbers of visitors.
