Dalongdong Reservoir

　　   Dalongdong Reservoir is situated on the upper reaches of the Dalongdong River in Duanfen Town, western Taishan City, spanning an area of 22,000 mu. Construction commenced in September 1958, and the main structure was largely completed in just thirteen months. It is a large-scale reservoir primarily used for irrigation, while also serving flood control, power generation, and fish farming. The reservoir has a catchment area of 148 square kilometers and a water storage capacity of 250 million cubic meters. It irrigates 150,000 mu of farmland and provides flood protection for 250,000 mu. The irrigation area includes six towns: Duanfen, Guanghai, Chonglou, Doushan, Duchu, and Chixi, making it one of Taishan City’s key commodity grain production bases.

　　   Nestled among rolling mountains, Dalongdong Reservoir boasts fresh air, tranquil surroundings, and stunning lake-and-mountain scenery. Its waters are dotted with 138 tree-lined islets, earning it the nickname "Thousand Island Lake." Visitors can enjoy fishing or barbecuing by the lake, or take boat trips to explore the "Thousand Island Lake." Since the lake water is formed by mountain spring runoff, the fish and shrimp caught here are especially delicious.

　　   The surrounding area features towering green mountains, crisscrossing valleys, steep peaks, and ancient trees that form a breathtaking natural landscape. Waterfalls and streams cascade through the mountains, accompanied by birdsong and floral scents. Crystal-clear brooks wind their way through the land, scattered with uniquely shaped rocks. The peaks are home to centuries-old trees, millennia-old vines, and a rich variety of vegetation, creating an immersive experience as if entering a verdant paradise.
