Double Dragon Lake
双龙海
A lake in lower Shuzheng Valley with two travertine ridges on its bed that wind toward each other, like two swimming dragons beneath the water.
Double Dragon Lake lies in lower Shuzheng Valley, between Reed Lake and Sparkling Lake. Two travertine ridges on the lake bed stretch out in ribbons, faintly visible through the water, resembling two swimming dragons. A small waterfall at the lake's end murmurs continuously. The lake is modest in size, so it is usually viewed from the sightseeing bus or enjoyed on foot as a detour from Sparkling Lake along the boardwalk. On overcast days the light is dim and the travertine ridges are hard to make out; the best views are on sunny mornings.
