Wu’an Minghu Lake
Originally named Damengyuan Reservoir, Minghu Lake is located in the southern part of Wu’an City, Hebei Province. On the eve of May 1, 2009, the Minghu Ecological Park was officially opened to the public. The opening of "Minghu" provided residents with another leisure, entertainment, and sightseeing destination, while also improving the urban ecological environment of Wu’an City and enriching its natural landscapes.
Damengyuan Reservoir was built decades ago as part of water conservancy projects, originally serving as a source of drinking water for residents and for flood control. In 2005, the Wu’an Municipal Government listed the reservoir as a key tourism project and attracted investment for its development, later renaming it Minghu. After several years of investment and construction, it has become a highlight for both locals and tourists seeking recreation and relief from the summer heat. Every weekend and during holidays, many visitors come here, especially in the peak of summer, when it becomes a popular spot for cooling off and enjoying the water.
The Minghu Ecological Park enjoys a prime location and features abundant aquatic ecological landscapes. The planned area of the park spans 450 hectares, including 330 hectares of water surface. Major planned projects within the Minghu Park include: a lakeside highway, conference service center, Nanhu Hotel, lakeside resort, Forest Sea Villa, agritainment spots, water conservancy plaza, water park, amusement park, swimming pool, lotus garden, Old Dragon Gully, lake islet, lakeside bathing beach, main road scenic area, villa resort area, sports and fitness area, forest leisure area, water activity area, ecological wetland area, and sightseeing agriculture area. Currently, the comprehensive development project of the lake is progressing according to the municipal government’s grand vision of “transforming Damengyuan Reservoir into the Wu’an Minghu Ecological Park.”
