Lushan Island is a pearl on Chaohu Lake in Anhui

Once you get to Lushan Island, you can see the endless lake. There are many snack stalls opposite the pier, and almost every shop sells shrimp cakes and fried knife fish, which are three for 10 yuan, probably a specialty of Chaohu. I bought both to try, but they were a bit greasy and not highly recommended. After eating, I bought two yacht tickets at the ticket office, 60 yuan per person. There are two yachts running back and forth, and there are several speedboats nearby, which look quite exciting. After checking the ticket at the pier, I went directly to the second floor of the yacht, where the view is wider. Later, more and more people came. After about five or six minutes, when there were almost enough people, the boat set off. It was my first time and it felt pretty good, especially when the boat got further and further away from the shore. Seeing the endless lake made me feel open-minded. After about ten or more minutes, we arrived at the pier on the island. After getting off the boat, I sat in the rest hall for a while, then went to a scenic spot called Fishing Village. Inside are some renovated old houses, restaurants, and more accommodations. The roads are very clean and there are not many people, which is quite quiet. Further inside, there is a place where you can see the entire lake, which is particularly suitable for taking pictures. It looks good even with the original camera. In the direction of the center of the island, there is a stone staircase that can be climbed to the top of the mountain. There are forests on the side, which is very cool. There are also some pavilions where you can rest in the middle. After climbing a short distance, I felt a bit tired, so I returned the same way. It was almost four o'clock, so I returned to the Fishing Village and found a restaurant for dinner (because after six o'clock, you can't take a yacht). The boss recommended their noodle fish and silver fish, so we ordered two dishes and a soup. The taste was okay, and the price was definitely a bit more expensive than outside. After dinner, I walked around the mountain road for a long time. I originally wanted to walk around the island, but I didn't expect it to take so long. However, the surrounding scenery was really good. There was a tunnel full of rocks inside, which was quite novel. Later, when I saw that it was almost six o'clock, I chose to take a sightseeing car back to the pier on the island. When I went back, I wanted to experience a speedboat, so I added 10 yuan to take a speedboat. At that point, the sunset had come out. Sitting on the speedboat and watching the sunset was incredibly beautiful. Sisters who go to play must experience the speedboat!! When I got to the shore, I called a Didi. I originally thought I would have to queue for a long time to get a ride, as there were quite a few people playing. I didn't expect to get a ride so quickly. My friend and I spent more than seventy yuan each on the taxi ride back and forth, which was a bit heartbreaking. On the way back, there was a section of road that was super congested, which caused us to sit for almost two hours before we got home. I suggest that friends who go to play should go early and return early to avoid traffic jams.
