Bailong Lake
摆龙湖(红旗水库)
A blue-green highland lake west of Puzhehei, ringed by lone peaks. In autumn and winter, wild ducks and egrets gather in flocks, and it is ideal for boat trips and driving around the lake.
Bailong Lake, also known as Hongqi Reservoir, lies in Shuanglongying Town in Qiubei County, about 15 km west of Puzhehei's core area. Its water is blue-green, with visibility of 4 to 5 metres, and karst peaks are reflected in the water and along the shores. In autumn and winter it is a wintering ground for wild ducks, egrets and other waterbirds, and the scenery is quiet and open. You can take a tour boat across the lake (about 1 hour; fares as posted locally), or drive along the lake and stop to take photos. It is often combined with Caihuaqing as a half-day route.
