Quyang Lake
渠洋湖
A karst plateau lake north of the city, with more than ten small islands reflecting the peaks; stilt-house Zhuang villages line the shore.
Quyang Lake lies in Quyang Town, north of Jingxi City. It was formerly Bamong Reservoir. The lake is wide, with more than ten islands of various sizes, surrounded by karst peak clusters, and stilt-house Zhuang villages and rice paddies line the shore. You can drive or cycle the lakeside road, about 30 km in total, or take a boat across the lake. Lake fish is a local specialty, at about 30–80 yuan per jin (500 g). Admission to the lake area is free, but boat trips charge a fee. Getting there: the lake is about 25 km from the city, and buses are infrequent with irregular timetables, so driving, hiring a car or renting an electric scooter is recommended. Nearby Fudong Mountain (Ho Chi Minh Cave) can be visited on the way.
