The Winter Beauty of Dongjiang Lake: Vast Misty Waves and Majestic Fog Scenery

Dongjiang Lake in winter has a unique charm. Taking a luxury cruise in the winter, on clear days, the lake and sky are transparently blue, blending seamlessly; when the lake surface is covered with vast misty waves and rising clouds, the fog scenery is magnificent and grand, quite different from the gentle and soft misty views of Misty Little Dongjiang. Climb up to Doushuai Island, where the Doushuai Lingyan Karst Cave maintains a constant temperature year-round—warm in winter and cool in summer—making it comfortable to stroll in just a single layer of clothing during winter. Inside the cave, stalactites hang like a forest, and stone pillars support the sky, forming countless shapes, earning it the title of "The Underground Natural Maze." The cave also hosts wonderful performances: "Seven Demons Play with Tang Monk," where seven demons interact humorously with Tang Monk, and "Past and Present Lives," portraying the intertwined love and hatred of the Green Snake and White Snake across time and space. The Dongjiang Flower Moon Night in the evening offers a special flavor as well. Ride on a rustic red boat, surrounded by the aroma of tea and the warmth of the stove, and you can even roast sweet potatoes, corn, and other delicacies by hand. The intelligent song request system lets you sing to your heart’s content. Additionally, you can check in at popular spots like Misty Little Dongjiang and Fisherman Casting Nets, and breathe fresh air by climbing Longjing Gorge. Come to Dongjiang Lake and start a romantic winter journey!
