Guanyin River Reservoir

　　Guanyin River Reservoir is located 3 kilometers northwest of Hanyin County and consists of two parts: the upper section, the Guanyin River reservoir area, and the lower section, Guanyin Gorge. The upper section features over 1,150 acres of water surface and is part of the 15-kilometer-long Guanyin River Reservoir—the largest medium-sized reservoir in Ankang. It boasts a natural landscape where the sky, water, mountains, and people blend seamlessly. Stretching about 8 kilometers from the dam to Guanyin Gorge, the area encompasses serene valleys that hide colorful farmland scenery and vividly shaped rock formations, such as Turtle Mountain, Snake Mouth, Malong Cave, and Shuiwei Fort. These offer urban visitors a tranquil, “Shangri-La” experience.
