Haishe Peninsula Park
海舌公园
A narrow peninsula reaching into Erhai beside Shaxi, where willows, boardwalks and lake water come together; a popular place on Erhai's western shore for sunrise photos.
Haishe Park lies near Sha Village in Shaxi town. It takes its name from a peninsula about 1 km long that stretches into Erhai like a tongue. The peninsula is shaded by willows and lush with water plants. A boardwalk leads to the tip, where you can look across at Cang Mountain and the Haidong shore. Early morning is the best time to see the sunrise over Erhai, and black-headed gulls visit in winter. Entry is free. It is about 10 minutes by electric bike from Shaxi Old Town. It is usually combined with Shaxi, Zhoucheng and Butterfly Spring on a one-day trip along Erhai's western route. Please protect the wetland and do not trample the water plants.
