Cuiping Lake
翠屏湖
A large artificial lake formed by the Gutian Reservoir, with islands scattered across the water. The ring road is ideal for a self-drive to watch the sunset.
Cuiping Lake is a reservoir created in the 1950s when the Gutian Stream Hydropower Station was built. It has a wide water surface, winding shores and islands scattered across the lake, and morning mists are common. You can drive or cycle the ring road and watch the sunset from viewpoints, or take a boat tour (depending on departure times on site). Lake fish and Gutian silver fungus are local specialties. It is located next to Gutian County town, about 1.5 hours by car from Ningde urban area, and can be combined with Linshui Temple in the same day.
