Changshou Dahong Lake

　　　　Dahong Lake is located to the west of Changshou District, adjacent to Yubei District in Chongqing. It is about 30 kilometers from the Changshou urban area. The lake was formed in 1958 when the Dahong River Hydropower Station built a dam on the Qingyun Gorge, blocking the Yulin River, making it a natural scenic area. The lake area spans both Changshou and Linshui, with a leaf-like water surface. The reservoir controls a catchment area 90 kilometers long, covers an area of 43 square kilometers, and has a total storage capacity of 160 million cubic meters. The lake area features flat terrain, vast waters, numerous islands scattered across the lake, and a maze of bays and inlets, hence it is known as the "Thousand-Island Hong Lake."
