In 1959, Xin 'anjiang Reservoir was completed, and the Wei dam intercepted the upper reaches of Xin 'anjiang River into a huge lake with vast smoke waves. The continuous mountains flooded into the lake and became large and small islands, ***178, hence the name "Qiandao Lake".

Qiandao Lake covers an area of 575 square kilometers, which is more than 1 times larger than the West Lake in Hangzhou, with a storage capacity of 17.8 billion cubic meters, equivalent to 3,184 West Lakes. Qiandao Lake is located in Chun 'an County, Zhejiang Province.

Qiandao Lake is famous for its clear mountains, beautiful waters, grotesque caves and grotesque rocks, which combines the mighty spirit of rivers and lakes, profound canyon scenery and rich cultural relics. Putting a boat on the lake is like entering a glass mirror. In addition to clear water, there are countless islands.
