Daoxiang Lake

　　The beautiful and pristine natural scenery creates an unparalleled space for relaxation, allowing you to freely breathe in the pastoral air and experience the green ecology of nature.

　　Daoxiang Lake mainly consists of a natural lake covering an area of over 600 acres and expansive rice fields along its shores, spanning nearly 12 square kilometers. Visitors to Daoxiang Lake Wetland Park are mostly young people coming for conference retreats or weekend outings. Due to the relatively remote location of Daoxiang Lake Wetland Park and underdeveloped public transportation, it is more suitable for self-driving trips. Driving along, stopping as you please, freely breathing in the pastoral air, casually enjoying the scenery around you — where the route leads isn’t really important. What matters is that rare feeling of contentment, which may be the biggest difference compared to visiting scenic spots within the city.

　　Another highlight of Daoxiang Lake Wetland Park is its endless appeal to those who enjoy barbecuing and fishing. As long as the weather cooperates, on this quiet and vast land, you can freely set up your own barbecue “base,” enjoy the beautiful scenery and delicious food, and relax in leisure. Or, you might choose a shady spot by the lake, set up your fishing rod, and cultivate your mood while waiting quietly for the fish to bite. However, according to many netizens, when fishing at Daoxiang Lake Wetland Park, you should maintain the mindset of “the drinker’s heart is not in the cup” — because the fish there are really quite hard to lure in (though it may also be due to the low fish population). Additionally, for those planning to barbecue, in order to protect the beautiful environment, it’s best not to damage the wetland vegetation when choosing a barbecue site. Opt for designated barbecue areas within the park, and clean up your trash after barbecuing. After all, the park is quite large and the staff relatively few, so garbage may not be cleared very promptly.
