Lushui Lake is the scenic-area name for the Lushui Reservoir. Its water surface covers about 57 square kilometers, with more than 800 islands of various sizes scattered across it. Wooded hills line the shore, and in 2002 the lake was designated a national scenic area. From the piers in the lake area you can take sightseeing boats to cruise and land on the islands, or cycle or drive the lakeside road to take in the bays and islands. Lakeside restaurants serving fresh lake fish line the shore. The piers are about 10–20 minutes' drive from the city center; boat tickets are sold separately. The coordinates mark the center of the reservoir, so confirm the pier location before setting out.
