Tourism development of Hualiangting Reservoir

In November 1986, the county government decided to develop the Hualiangting tourist attraction, and adopted the suggestions of provincial tourism experts and relevant personnel to name the Hualiangting Reservoir Huating Lake. In 1987, Huating Lake The scenic spot was announced by the provincial government as the first batch of provincial key scenic spots. In order to strengthen the leadership of tourism work, based on the establishment of the County Tourism Bureau in 1997, in October 2001, the Huating Lake Scenic Area Management Office was established. The honors of Huating Lake Scenic Area also followed one after another: it has successively won five national-level "gold-lettered" signs such as a national scenic spot, a national AAAA tourist area, a national water conservancy scenic area, a national agricultural tourism demonstration site, and a national wetland park. Since then, a new page has been opened in the history of tourism development in Taihu County. An endless stream of tourists from both inside and outside the province come to Huating Lake every year.
