Jinlong Lake & Quarry Park
金龙湖宕口公园
A lake park converted from an abandoned quarry, where cliffs, waterfalls and water form a distinctive landscape. It is a popular spot in Xuzhou's urban ecological restoration drive.
Jinlong Lake lies in the Xuzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone. The Quarry Park on its north side was transformed from an abandoned stone quarry (dangkou). It retains steep rock walls and has added waterfalls, boardwalks, the lake surface and vegetation, creating a distinctive combination of cliffs and lake. Together with the Zhushan Quarry at Yunlong Lake and Pan'an Lake, it is a flagship example of Xuzhou's ecological restoration. There are walking paths and green spaces around the lake. Entry is free, and it suits photos and walks. Stations near Jinlong Lake on metro line 1 provide access, and it is about 20 minutes from the city centre.
