Liancheng
Liancheng crowns the mountains, the lakes and mountains depend on each other, the lake is Shimen Lake, and the mountain is the Guanlan Mountain. Take a boat trip to Shimen Lake, and the hills are like a water in Guilin.
Generally speaking, visiting the Guanlan Mountain must visit Shimen Lake, which is also part of the Guanlan Mountain Scenic Area. The tour of Shimen Lake is relatively easy. It is a boat trip on the lake and the beauty of the lake.
Shimen Lake was originally a reservoir with a water depth of nearly 30 meters. It looks like a deep green and clean water.
The cruise ship departs on time, the lake is not big, 20 minutes is enough to circle the lake. The
dam and the hills in the lake are all covered with dense trees, lush all year round, and the air quality is excellent. Seen from the boat, the scenery around you is like Guilin on the water.
There are two piers by the lake. The cruise ships are parked here to pick up and drop off tourists, and then continue to explore.
The hills are different in shape, and you can use your imagination to gain a more beautiful visual enjoyment. There are no more people in the grass and rafts, all of which are pure natural scenery.
The lake is sometimes wide, sometimes narrow, and the scenery is beautiful, such as the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. The gate of life at Shimen Lake is a wonder of the Guanlan Mountain Scenic Area.
is surrounded by dark brown mountains, which is a typical Danxia landform. Suddenly entering an extremely narrow water lane, only one ship was allowed to pass.
