Xizi Lake Ecological Tourism Area is a natural and serene ecological home. It is located in the southeast of Tongcheng and is named after the children along the lake often playing in the lake. The unique lake and mountain scenery, the hearty and simple local customs and folkways, and the abundant land and water products give people the beauty of returning to nature and returning to simplicity. The wetlands along the lake are continuous, and rare birds migrate and inhabit seasonally, forming a rare wetland landscape.
In the season when the lake water rises, Xizidun stands alone, and the scenery of the islands in the distance and near is beautiful. The fishing village is simple and unsophisticated. The fishing boats fly and the nets are bright, and the life of boatmen is full of fun. Songshan Mountain, standing majestically by the lake, has three peaks connected. The vegetation is dense and the dark-colored rocks are crisscrossed. Climbing up and looking into the distance, the lake and mountain scenery around are all in sight. Walking by the lake, the willows are intoxicated by the spring mist, and gulls and herons gather. All are beautiful scenes. Sailing on the lake, the blue waves and whitecaps, and the waves are shimmering, like an endless silk. Whether it is the early morning glow rising, the setting sun in the west, or the twinkling stars, the bright moon in the sky, or the fishermen singing in the evening, the wild geese formation startling in the cold, the end of the year in the countryside, or the spring coming in the water country, it is all pleasing to the eye and makes people linger and forget to return. Xizi Lake is just like a vivid painting and a poem without words, which makes people daydream and has a long aftertaste. Thus, it forms the ‘Wild Geese Landing on Song Lake’ among the eight scenic spots of Tongcheng. Not far from Xizi Lake, there is a Luofengwo. It is a lakeside resort where ‘there are a thousand people greeting during the day and ten thousand bright lamps at night’. Since Zhang Ying’s father buried his mother here, there have been father-son prime ministers, and there is the prominent honor of ‘the first family in Jiangnan permitted by the emperor’. Legends have blurred history, but history has proved the ancient city with outstanding people. The descendants of later generations are majestic and return home gloriously, enjoying the honor of being the pillar of the country.Opening hours: From January 1st to December 31st, open from 08:00 to 18:00.
