Qianlu Lake Scenic Area

Qianlu Lake Scenic Area

Qianlu Lake Scenic Area is a national AAAA-level tourist attraction.

Qianlu Lake—thousands of egrets, thousands of lakes. "Thousands of egrets" refers to the diverse species and large population of egrets here, while "thousands of lakes" stems from the area being a typical mountain pond and marsh wetland, where numerous lakes are scattered across the valley’s dense forests.

The Qianlu Lake area features a wealth of ponds, lakes, marshes, farmland, and forests, forming an integrated wetland ecosystem of “mountains, waters, forests, fields, lakes, and grasslands.” Countless bodies of water are scattered throughout, with lush aquatic plants and abundant fish. This pristine wetland environment attracts thousands of waterfowl and wading birds, particularly herons from the Ardeidae family—including Little Egrets, Grey Herons, Chinese Pond Herons, Black-crowned Night Herons, and various bittern species—creating a breathtaking scene of egrets gathering in flocks and birds soaring gracefully through the air.
