The scenic area is a large reservoir, named Youluokou (Oil Basket Mouth) because the Zhang River flows through this section where the riverbed is narrow but the water body is wide, resembling the shape of an oil basket.
The reservoir boasts vast, crystal-clear waters, making it a natural paradise for tourism and water-based recreational activities. On sunny days, the reservoir shimmers with gentle waves under light clouds; on rainy days, it is enveloped in misty, dreamy scenery with blurred mountain silhouettes. The lakeside is surrounded by rolling low hills and solitary peaks, while the surrounding mountains are lush and green, covered in dense foliage. The reservoir area offers motorboats for exploring the waters, allowing visitors to trace the source of the Gan River and enjoy the beautiful landscapes along the lake. During holidays, fishing by the lake adds a special touch of leisure.
