Tianchi Lake, Huaying
华蓥山天池湖
A high-mountain lake at the western foot of Mount Huaying; the loop path around the shore and the small stone formations by the lake are weekend favorites of Huaying residents.
Tianchi Lake lies in Tianchi Town, Huaying City, a long, narrow lake ringed by mountains. A greenway loops around the shore for walking or bike rental, and small stone formations and farmhouse restaurants are scattered around the lake. At dusk the mountains reflected in the water make for very photogenic views. Free admission. It can be combined with the Baoding Scenic Area of Mount Huaying on the same day; it is about 20 minutes by taxi from Huaying city center. On weekends the lakeside is busy with barbecues and fishing, so keep an eye on your belongings.
