The reservoir was renamed as a lake and immediately became a holiday resort. Look at these artificial lakes in Jiangsu.

Jiangsu is not only full of rivers, but also dotted with lakes. There are 99 lakes with annual water surface area of 1 km2 or above, with a total water surface area of 0.59 million km2, all of which are freshwater lakes. Among them, there are 13 lakes in the province, such as Taihu Lake, Hongze Lake and Roman Lake. Great lakes with an area of over 65,438+0,000 square kilometers include Taihu Lake and Hongze Lake, which are the third and fourth largest freshwater lakes in China respectively.

Some of these lakes are not naturally formed, but are formed by reservoirs (water conservancy engineering buildings for retaining floods and regulating water flow), and many of them have become tourist attractions, becoming national 5A and 4A scenic spots. Let's take a look together.

1. Shahe Reservoir/Daxi Reservoir-Tianmu Lake

From 65438 to 0957, water conservancy experts from Jiangsu Province visited Liyang and studied the local topography. It is found that there are endless green hills on both sides of Shahe River in Ma Pingchuan. For example, in the lower reaches of the Shahe River, it is a good thing to stop these waters, use water to generate electricity, irrigate fields, and ensure the harvest in drought and flood, so as to benefit the people. Therefore, Shahe Reservoir was built.

1992 In order to adapt to the reform and opening up, Shahe Reservoir was changed to Tianmu Lake to develop tourism. Because it belongs to the remnant vein of Tianmu Mountain, it is named "Tianmu Lake".

20 13 Tianmu lake was approved as a national 5A-level tourist attraction. Tianmu Lake casserole fish head is a great food in Liyang, which is famous far and near.

Tianmu Lake actually includes Daxi Reservoir, which is located about 5 kilometers northwest of Shahe Reservoir. Because Fiona Fang 10 km is a water source protection area, there is no tourism development like "Shahe Reservoir", and tourists coming here are very rare. Therefore, the original ecological natural scenery is still maintained here. Compared with the bustling Tianmu Lake, you will feel particularly comfortable and quiet when you visit here.

2. Hengshan Reservoir-Huyun Lake

Hengshan Reservoir is located in the southwest mountainous area of Yixing City, Jiangsu Province. Built in 1969, the dam is 4 1.5 meters high and 4090 meters long.

In 20 10, in order to speed up the implementation of the overall plan of "tourism revitalization", Yixing municipal government developed and built Huyunfeng scenic spot on this "big water tank" which not only has unique geographical advantages, but also carries millions of Taodou people, and named it "Hu Yun", which means a clean and beautiful lake like white clouds.

At present, Hu Yun Tourist Resort is a 4A-level scenic spot, which consists of five parts: Hengshan Reservoir Scenic Area, Xueyuan Temple Buddhist Culture Area, Holiday Service Area, Pastoral Scenery Area and Peasant Style Area, with a construction area of more than 30,000 square meters.

3. Shigouhu Reservoir-yunlong lake

The reservoir is located in the southwest of Xuzhou City, formerly known as "Bojiwa" and also known as "Shigou Lake". 1959 65438+In February, Xuzhou Municipal People's Government officially started the Shigou Lake Reservoir Project to solve the problem that Shigou Lake was flooded all the year round, threatening Xuzhou's urban security. Tang Hainan, then Deputy Commissioner of Xuzhou Administrative Office, suggested that the Shigou Lake Reservoir under construction be renamed yunlong lake, and the municipal government adopted his suggestion, so Shigou Lake was renamed yunlong lake. /kloc-at the end of 0/960, Yunlong Hubei levee was completed. 1967, influenced by the Cultural Revolution, yunlong lake was once renamed as Hongwei Lake, but it was not long before the name "yunlong lake" was restored. 1994 65438+February 1 1 yunlong lake and Hangzhou West Lake have become "sister lakes".

2065438+August 2006 yunlong lake was awarded the national AAAAA-level tourist attraction.

4. Liang Shi River Reservoir-Hailing Lake

Hailing Lake, formerly known as Liang Shi Reservoir, is located at the junction of Donghai County and Ganyu County in the northeast of Jiangsu Province. It was excavated on the basis of the famous Liang Shi River and Dasha River, and it is also the largest reservoir in Jiangsu.

At present, although the scenic area of Hailing Lake is very large, some places are still under construction and not open to the outside world. In recent years, Liang Shi River Reservoir is also building an eco-city to enrich tourism resources.

5. Jinniushan Reservoir-Jinniu Lake

Jinniu Lake is located in the northeast of Liuhe District in Nanjing, connecting Jiangsu, Anhui, Liuhe, Tianchang and Yizheng provinces. It is a national AAAA tourist scenic spot, a national water conservancy scenic spot and a provincial forest park.

Jinniu Lake was originally Jinniushan Reservoir and was built in 1958. It is the largest artificial lake in Nanjing. The lake is named after the mountain, and the mountain is colored by the water. On August 14, 2006, Jinniu Lake Scenic Area passed the evaluation and became the first "National Water Conservancy Scenic Area" in Nanjing.

To sum up, the reservoir can not only hold back floods and regulate water flow, but also give full play to its landscape characteristics and build a tourist ecological resort. The most successful model is Qiandao Lake in Zhejiang. In the past, Qiandao Lake was just a reservoir called Xin 'anjiang Reservoir. At first, this reservoir was used to build an artificial lake for Xin 'anjiang Hydropower Station, and its scale was also very large. With the development of tourism, Xin 'anjiang Reservoir was renamed Qiandao Lake, which made full use of the tourism resources here and has now become a national famous 5A scenic spot. At present, Qiandao Lake is the largest artificial lake in China. There are many reservoirs and artificial lakes in Jiangsu that can develop in this direction.
