Where is Danjiangkou Reservoir? Danjiangkou reservoir travel guide

Not many people know about Danjiangkou Reservoir, but in front of Beijingers, there are still many people who know this place very well. On the one hand, the South-to-North Water Transfer Project started in 2008 has brought better water sources to Beijing. On the other hand, because the water quality here is very clean and clear, the drinking water of Longfuquan comes from Danjiangkou, so many people should know about Longfuquan, so today I mainly introduce Danjiangkou to you.

Danjiangkou water quality

Affected by the terrain, Danjiangkou is a place surrounded by mountains on three sides. The terrain here is unique and there are many mountain springs. Therefore, the water quality of Danjiangkou Reservoir remains above the second-class drinking water standard all the year round. The entire reservoir is 700 square kilometers, and the residents on both sides of the river depend on this water quality.

Danjiangkou brand-Nongfu Spring and Wudang Spring

This is the birthplace of Nongfu Spring and Wudang Spring. Although the reputation of Wudang Spring has not yet started, the local people's purchase of Wudang Spring far exceeds that of Nongfu Spring. We can also see the silent support of local residents and verify the drinkability of Wudang Spring.

"South-to-North Water Transfer Project"

Danjiangkou is also the water source of the Middle Route Project of South-to-North Water Transfer, which links Nanyang, Xuchang, Zhengzhou and Beijing more closely. It can be said that "a flood of clear lake runs through the mountains and around the continent, and there are endless fireworks". 、

As the saying goes, one side is pregnant. Because of the terrain here, Danjiangkou really benefits many local people. This is not only the place where the water source begins, but also the best area for local residents to survive.

The top of the dam has a good view overlooking the reservoir area and the whole city of Danjiangkou. Unfortunately, the exhibition hall has been closed for many years.

Danjiangkou Dam is 2.5 kilometers long, with a maximum dam height of 97 meters and a crest elevation of 1.62 meters. Equipped with 6 generator sets, the installed capacity is 900,000 kilowatts, and the average power generation for many years is 4 billion kWh.

At the source of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project, the dam is magnificent. On the top of the dam, there are vast rivers on one side and patches of farmland on the other, which is very spectacular!

The ticket here is 20 yuan/person. You can walk to the dam to see it. The feeling of overlooking the panorama is great!
