Runsheng Lake

Runsheng Lake

Runsheng Lake is located on both sides of Yingbin Street at the eastern exit of Shanba Town, 2.5 kilometers from the built-up area of Shanba Town and 15 kilometers from Linhe District. It covers an area of 3,000 mu, including a water surface area of 2,600 mu and 400 mu dedicated to greening, landscaped hills, small features, roads, and squares. Runsheng Lake is divided into northern and southern sections, with the southern lake covering a water area of 1,400 mu and the northern lake covering 1,200 mu.

The Runsheng Lake Wetland Restoration and Ecological Protection Project plays a vital role in replenishing the urban water source of Shanba Town after the project's completion, ensuring water supply safety, restoring wetlands, and protecting the ecology. Construction began in 2011 with an investment of 140 million yuan.

The Runsheng Lake Wetland Restoration and Protection Project is located on both sides of Yingbin Street in Shanba Town. It is the most important landscape water system under our banner’s “Ten Thousand Mu of Living Water · Green Corridor Protection” wetland protection and restoration initiative. It also represents a significant measure for our banner to actively integrate into the main urban area of Linhe and align with the city’s “One Region, Three Zones, One Cluster” plan. This project holds substantial practical significance for improving residents' quality of life, enhancing urban appeal, improving the ecological environment, and creating a “Green and Civilized New Hanghou, Scenic Garden New Shanba.”

The Runsheng Lake project commenced construction in May 2100, covering a lake area of 3,000 mu. Of this, the water area spans 2,600 mu, while greening, landscaped hills, small features, roads, and squares occupy 400 mu. The lake is divided into northern and southern sections: the southern lake covers 1,600 mu with a water area of 1,400 mu, and the northern lake covers 1,400 mu with a water area of 1,200 mu. The estimated total investment for the project is 300 million yuan. Currently, all engineering and greening work has been largely completed.

Once completed, Runsheng Lake will serve four main functions. First, it will replenish the urban water source wells. Second, it will restore wetlands and protect the ecology. Third, it will support urban development. Fourth, it will enhance the city’s appeal.

Upon completion, Runsheng Lake will become a new highlight of the urban area where “water and greenery blend, water reflects greenery, landscapes are stunning, and the ambiance is refined.” It will create a tranquil and picturesque environment, providing residents with a high-quality venue for leisure, entertainment, and tourism, becoming the “back garden” of the municipal government and a scenic landmark for visitors to our banner.

A total of 3.3 million cubic meters of earthwork were excavated for Runsheng Lake. The designed depth is 3.5 meters, with a water storage capacity of 3 million cubic meters during the wet season and 2 million cubic meters during the dry season.

The lake area currently features a perimeter road, landscaping, parking lots, fitness plazas, rockeries, and pavilions. The scenic area is divided into zones such as the musical fountain viewing area, lakeside sightseeing area, koi fish feeding area, and barbecue dining area.
