Chenghai Lake is located at the bottom of the basin formed by Chenghai fault zone. In ancient times, it was Hecheng River, a tributary of Jinsha River, and then fell into the lake. Lake water mainly comes from mountain springs around the basin. The lake initially flows into the Jinsha River (Haihe River and Aqin River) in the lower reaches of Hecheng River through the southern hukou. In modern times, due to the changes of hydrology and climate, the lake water generally stopped leaking and became an inland lake.
