Shibalicui Water Conservancy Scenic Area

The Shibalicui Water Conservancy Scenic Area is a national AAAA-level tourist attraction and a national water conservancy scenic area.

The Shibalicui National Water Conservancy Scenic Area is situated in the southeastern part of Suichang County, along the upper reaches of the Songyin Stream, a tributary of the Ou River. It is developed along the meandering and pristine Shisiduyuan River. Spanning over 70 square kilometers, the area encompasses key attractions such as the Chengping First and Second Reservoirs, Shenlong Valley Rafting, and Shenlong Waterfall. With the Shibalicui Ecological Corridor as its axis, the scenic area integrates water engineering, water landscapes, water culture, water resources, and various eco-tourism assets through a linked development approach. It has now evolved into a comprehensive water conservancy tourism destination that combines sightseeing, leisure, entertainment, vacationing, and self-driving travel.

The Shibalicui National Water Conservancy Scenic Area is a true water-centric destination, centered around key hydraulic landscape elements such as waterfalls, streams, rafting experiences, and reservoirs. By utilizing ecological riverways to connect diverse eco-tourism resources along the waterways, and through the development of water conservancy scenic assets, the area ensures the safety of water infrastructure, enables efficient allocation of water resources, and enriches its tourism offerings. This not only maximizes the socio-economic benefits of water projects and landscapes but also enhances the city’s image and elevates the overall quality of tourism in Suichang. Furthermore, it significantly boosts the visibility and reputation of Suichang’s “Five Elements Suichang, A Promise Worth a Thousand in Gold” tourism brand. This development lays a solid foundation for Suichang’s goal of becoming a “Famed Leisure Tourism City in the Yangtze River Delta.”
