Sanqing Lake
三清湖（七一水库）
A large reservoir lake at the southeastern foot of Mount Sanqing, where you can take a boat across the shimmering water and gaze at the mountain's peaks in the distance.
Sanqing Lake, formerly known as Qiyi Reservoir, lies in Zihu Town, Yushan County. It is the largest body of water at the foot of Mount Sanqing. Islands dot the lake, green hills mirror themselves on the water, and on clear days you can make out the silhouettes of Mount Sanqing's peaks. Boat tours run across the lake, and guesthouses and farmhouse restaurants line the shore, making it a relaxing spot for a half day after exploring the mountain. Admission and boat fares vary, so check on site. Boat rides take about 1 to 1.5 hours. The lake is about 25 km from Jinsha Service Area, so you'll need to drive or hire a car to get there.
