Sanchahe Scenic Area (Zhenfeng)

三岔河

A plateau lake formed where three rivers meet near Zhexiang Town in Zhenfeng. Buyi villages, a bamboo-and-stone forest and campsites are scattered around its shores.

Sanchahe is a national 4A tourism resort area. It takes its name from three rivers that converge here to form a lake with a coral-like shape. It lies near Zhexiang Town in Zhenfeng County, about 7 km from Shuangru Peak. Around the lake are Buyi villages, the Zhulinpu Stone Forest and the Huya cliff inscriptions. Within the scenic area, Guanfeng Pavilion offers views of Shuangru Peak. In recent years, an international campsite and a lakeside cycling path have been built, and it has become a popular summer retreat and camping destination in Qianxinan. Most of the area is open, and opening hours vary by platform (09:00 to 17:30, or all day). Camping and boat rides cost extra. It is about 1.5 hours' drive from Xingyi and works well as a day trip combined with Shuangru Peak and Zhenfeng Old Town.
