This small lake (size: 300x600m) just beside the Yangse River, and the water is drained from the Yangse by a dike. The water is very dirty. Because the place is not big, it's just flat water. Water is not deep, good for learning. Lake can dry out or be very shallow. So be careful with jumping.

Fees

Dangerous spot because the beach is not wide enough, but with good safety care, that works out. It's a nice little spot with Northeast. To enter the lake resort area you have to pay 20 RMB, we have negotiated it down to 10 RMB at unusual hours, that's when we kite here, like 6am, before work or in the early spring or late autumn, when others do not use that resort anymore.
