Spring Stroll: Caiyun Lake Park

Caiyun Lake National Wetland Park is the first national wetland park in Chongqing, covering a total area of ​​110 hectares. The theme of the park is to create a "Peach Blossom Land Scene" of "layers of terraces connected to distant mountains, winding wetlands in the clouds, colorful forests surrounding the lake reflecting the water and sky, and a garden full of peach blossoms surrounding the stream." The 2.8-kilometer barrier-free lakeside trail connects eleven cultural landscape nodes, including the Mist in the Fir Forest, the Wind and Rain Covered Bridge, the Lakeside Heron Harbor, the Peach Blossom Poetry Gallery, the Half Peach Blossom Language, the Peach Blossom Peninsula, the Singing Cars and Water, the Double Hui Embracing the Moon, the Peach Forest Ferry, and the Light Boat Mooring. Various varieties of peach blossoms are planted along the route, fully demonstrating the perfect fusion of natural ecology and cultural art. 📍Detailed address: No. 166, Kecheng Road, Jiulongpo District, Chongqing 🕙Business hours: 24 hours 🚉Transportation strategy: Get off at Caiyun Lake Station on the rail transit loop line and walk 800 meters ⏳Visiting time: 2-3 hours 💰Ticket price: Free and open ❤Recommended reason: It was originally a stinking pond surrounded by the city, but now it has become a beautiful landscape with clear water and mountains.

The park is very large and is divided into the West District and the East District. The main scenic spot, the lake, is in the East District; 2. The East Gate is closest to the lake, but there is a steep slope (the bus stop on the northern section of Yilong Road is closest), and the North Gate of the park is closest to the light rail station; 3. The Plum Garden is not close to any gate, and it takes at least 1-2 kilometers to get there after entering the park.
