Tiger Lake
老虎海
In autumn, colorful lakeside forests reflect in the water in mottled patterns like tiger stripes; Shuzheng Waterfall lies at its outlet.
Tiger Lake lies in upper Shuzheng Valley, between Rhinoceros Lake and Shuzheng Waterfall. It is said to be named because in autumn the red, yellow and orange forests on the slopes are reflected in the lake in patterns like tiger stripes. Another explanation is that the sound of the waterfall at its outlet resembles a tiger’s roar. The lake is not large, but its autumn colors are intense, making it a hotspot for autumn photography. It is about a 10-minute walk from Rhinoceros Lake along the boardwalk, or you can get off at the Shuzheng Lake Cluster stop and visit Shuzheng Waterfall on the way.
