Experience the Water Forest of Qingshan Lake near Hangzhou
Qingshan Lake, a large artificial lake completed in 1964, is a representative natural attraction in the Lin'an district west of Hangzhou. Enjoy a leisurely walk while admiring the scenery where the lake and forest blend together.
Qingshan Lake is particularly famous for its Water Forest, where trees appear to grow out of the water, creating a unique landscape with straight trees and a calm water surface.
Walk through the forest stretching over the water

Stroll along the boardwalks within the Water Forest to appreciate it from various angles. The forest's colors change with the seasons, offering lush greenery in spring and summer, and vibrant red and yellow hues in late autumn and early winter.
The scenery where water meets forest is perfect for capturing photos. Enjoy the tranquil atmosphere of Qingshan Lake at your own pace.
Enjoy the forest up close with a boat ride

If you wish to experience the Water Forest in a different way, consider taking advantage of the on-site boat experiences. Viewing the forest from the water offers a unique perspective compared to walking the boardwalks.
Navigate through the trees and get up close with the reflections of the trees and surrounding nature on the water. Qingshan Lake is especially popular from late autumn to early winter when the Water Forest displays its most beautiful colors.
