“The water is the colour you see in the photos. Boats are small, and the hills come straight down into it.”
Excerpted with attribution; full note linked from the creator's channel.
On the water
Local boats leave from several landings. Ask for the northern bays, where the shoreline is steepest and the water clearest; two hours is enough.
Around it
The Xixia dinosaur fossil museum and the forest trails of Laojieling fill a second day if you are staying in the county.
Practical notes
- Bring cash for boat operators
- Two hours by car from Nanyang East station
- 08:00–18:00
