Yangzhou Luyang Lake|A Hidden Green Wonderland in the Human World
The 'matcha-flavored' duckweed and the deep sense of the cedar trees are lush and translucent, just like a green barrier. It's so beautiful!

🌈Recommended Attractions
1️⃣Water Zigzag Bridge
This zigzag bridge winds through the forest, with railings on both sides. It serves as both a scenic walkway and a beautiful landscape. No matter which direction you face, pressing the shutter will capture a beautiful picture.
2️⃣Water Forest
After entering the main gate, you can see the neatly arranged water cedars. This area mainly consists of shallow lakes, with a large number of pond cypresses, bald cypresses, and water cedars planted in the water. You can row a boat to enjoy the beautiful water forest.
3️⃣Water Wandering
Boating in the water is also indispensable. There are many narrow boats in the wetland park, painted red. Sailing in the green forest is like a red dot in a sea of green, creating a picturesque scene.
4️⃣Thousand Acres of Green Waves
This describes the invasive aquatic plant 'duckweed'. This duckweed has strong vitality and reproductive ability. As long as there is water, it can survive and quickly cover the pond. Unexpectedly, this duckweed can also become a beautiful scenery.
⚠️Notes
1. You can row a boat. The park's caretaker is very nice, and it's okay to row a little longer when there are fewer people.
2. Wooden boats need to be rowed by yourself, while cartoon boats are double-pedal boats. You can choose according to your preference.
3. The location is relatively remote, far from the city center, so it will take more time on the road.
4. There is nothing to eat nearby, so it is recommended to bring your own food, otherwise, you will be hungry.
5. It is recommended to go early in the morning or after 4 pm. There are fewer people and good sunlight, making it very photogenic.
6. The water is not deep, and the oar can touch the bottom, so there is no need to be too afraid.

A trip to Luyang Lake in Yangzhou, exploring the green wilderness in summer
Address: Luyang Lake, Su-Xue Highway, Jiangdu District, Yangzhou City.
Entering the main gate, neatly arranged dawn redwoods immediately come into view, each standing straight. In spring, fish farmers release water into the ponds to raise fish, and visitors can row boats while enjoying the wetland pond cypress forest. The terrain in Luyang Lake Wetland Park is flat, the trees are lush, the air is fresh, and the water town atmosphere is strong, especially the forest landscape resources dominated by water-tolerant tree species such as pond cypress, bald cypress, and dawn redwood are uniquely distinctive.

Fairy tail green lake
In 扬州 Yangzhou this pretty lake is a must to visit for a day trip in this city. The green becomes so vibrant under the sun it’s the perfect time to visit right now during the summer.
You can rent a boat which is 50 yuans for two people for 40 minutes. And it is a 10 yuan fee to enter in to walk around.
This city doesn’t have a metro system unfortunately so the best way to get here is by DiDi and it is a bit far, around 1 hour away so it will cost you around 100-150 yuans. I still highly recommend and support your local drivers and sellers!

【Yangzhou Secret Realm·Luyang Lake Wetland】: Matcha Lake Shore·Adventure in the Metasequoia Forest
🌲 Deeply immersed in the green fairy tale of Yangzhou, in the mysterious 'Wild Oz' of Luyang Lake Wetland Park, we will join hands to sail on the emerald-green lake surface like matcha, and shuttle through the tall and verdant Metasequoia forest belt🌳.
🔍 Destination Focus:
📍 Yangzhou Luyang Lake Wetland Park, hidden in the pastoral village🏡, away from the hustle and bustle of the city🌆. To fully enjoy this natural beauty🌿, it is recommended to take a taxi🚖 or drive🚗 there, and it takes about an hour from Yangzhou city center to reach this secluded fairyland🏞️.
💰 Spending Guide:
The park's plank road only costs 10 yuan per person🎫, which is a great value for money👍. The most characteristic water activity - boating is a must-try🚣♂️, 50 yuan for a leisurely forty-minute boat ride🚣♀️, with an additional charge of 1 yuan for every minute of overtime🕰️, and each boat can carry 3 to 4 passengers to share the fun👫.
📷 Photo Tips:
When dressing, be sure to choose light-colored clothing👕, which stand out against the lush green background🌟, and every casual shot is of blockbuster quality📸. Personally tested, absolutely eye-catching👀!
📅 Travel Tips:
It is highly recommended to visit between 1 and 2 p.m.🕐, when the sunlight slants down, casting shadows through the Metasequoia leaves like a dream🌤️, the lake water ripples🌊, and the color saturation reaches its peak🎨. When boating, please be sure to be careful and slow, so that every paddle stroke resonates harmoniously with nature🌳.
Visiting Yangzhou Luyang Lake Wetland Park is not just about immersing in picturesque scenery🖼️, but also a spiritual baptism of returning to nature🧘♀️. Here, time seems to stretch, every inch of light and shadow, every duckweed conveys the rhythm of life and the breath of the earth🍃. Boating on the green waves, one is as if traveling in a painting🛶.

The Water Forest in Yangzhou, severely underrated【With Guide】
❤️Yangzhou actually has such a photogenic spot! It's like Yangzhou's own version of the Emerald City, the greenery is just too beautiful.
❤️Yangzhou's water forest🌳 is covered with duckweed, which at first glance might be mistaken for a lawn. If you want to take photos, it's best to go in the morning when there are fewer people. The photos will also look better.
📍Address: Yangzhou Luoyang Lake Wetland Park
🚃Transportation🚌: Take bus No. 219, get off at Luoyang Lake Tourist Service Center Station
🚕It is recommended to drive🚗 there, as it is quite far from the city center of Yangzhou
⏰️Opening hours: 8:00~17:30
🚏Free admission⬛Boating: 50 yuan for a wooden boat (40 minutes)
🚏An additional 10 yuan is required to walk on the boardwalk above
✅Recommended reasons:
1⃣️This is a water forest where you can enter by boat or wooden boardwalk. The scattered Metasequoia forest has a kind of cool feeling, and the morning light adds a bit of serene beauty.
2⃣️The shadows of the Metasequoia trees are elongated by the light into the depths of the lake, casting on the green algae, creating a shadowy effect. Some people row through every part of the water under the Metasequoia forest, while others lie lazily in the boat, letting it drift and spin. The boat's movement causes ripples, pushing the green algae aside, which is very healing.
📷Photo tips:
✅Best shooting time: 7:00-8:30 in the morning, 16:00-17:00 in the afternoon when the light is beautiful and you can capture the mottled sunlight.
✅Clothing: Solid-colored clothes are more photogenic, black and white clothes give a different feel.
✅In summer, be mindful of sun protection and mosquitoes near the lake, and make sure to use insect repellent.
✅In May and June, the water is covered with a large amount of bright green duckweed. This place is also a paradise for birds and animals. Among the more than 70 species of birds, more than 10 are nationally protected animals.

This is the place where I encountered the greenest Wizard of Oz. It's really too suitable for taking pictures. Sisters must bring a photo prop

1⃣️It is recommended to go from October to November, and there will be no green scenery when it is too cold

Yangzhou | Experience the Wizard of Oz in Green Ocean Lake
🍃Location: Yangzhou Green Ocean Lake Wetland Park
🍃Distance: About 50min drive from Yangzhou city
🍃Transportation: Only self-driving or taxi is available. However, this place is a bit off the beaten path, so it might be difficult to hail a taxi for the return trip. If you take a taxi, it's best to arrange the return trip with the driver in advance
🎫Ticket: 50 per boat, can seat 2-3 people (if you don't take a boat and just walk around inside, you still need to pay)
👗Outfit: It seems that you can wear white or light-colored dresses. The one I'm wearing has some green embellishments, which I think matches the scenery quite well
