Lizhong Water Forest Park

The water forest is truly like an oxygen bar, with extremely fresh air and beautiful scenery. There are very few people, and when we went, it was almost just the three of us, very quiet. The sunlight filters through the leaves and falls on the walkway, serene and romantic. There are many amusement facilities for children, and taking a leisurely stroll and looking around, you can easily spend 2-3 hours. You must take a boat ride, from pier 1 to pier 2, it's not a long time, and the water flows gently with excellent views. Occasionally, birds fly by, branches tremble, and the rustling sound is healing and ethereal. Be sure to protect yourself against mosquitoes, as there are many over the water. Although there is shade from the trees, still be mindful of sun protection, as there are many areas with direct sunlight, and the ultraviolet rays are strong, which can easily cause sunburn. Different seasons offer different beautiful views, just enjoy them with a peaceful heart. Perhaps it is also because there are few people, so there is not much to say about services, and most of it is operated by locals, so it's quite casual.

Rapeseed flowers in Pingduo, Xinghua, Taizhou, usually bloom around the Qingming festival each year, and currently about a quarter of them have blossomed, with expectations that they will bloom even more beautifully after Qingming. The Qianduo scenic area is a globally important agricultural cultural heritage, renowned worldwide for its unique 'duotian' landscape. 'Duo' is a type of agricultural landscape unique to the Lixiahe region, which, according to historical records, formed about 750 years ago. In the marshy lands where soil was scarce, the industrious and intelligent people of Xinghua excavated mud from the network of deep ditches or small rivers in the lake and marsh areas, piling it up block by block to form mounds, creating the cultivable 'duotian'. Due to the higher elevation, good drainage, and fertile soil of the 'duotian', it is particularly suitable for growing fruits, vegetables, and melons. Since the 1950s, the 'duotian' rapeseed has been highly regarded nationwide, earning the reputation of 'leading the way in the country'. Due to the variety and high yield of vegetables, 'duotian' is also known as the 'hometown of vegetables'. Every year during the Qingming festival, the 'duotian' surrounded by water in the Qianduo scenic area is covered with golden rapeseed flowers, attracting numerous tourists for sightseeing. 'Rivers with thousands of bends full of green water, fields without a mound not covered in yellow flowers' is the true portrayal of the rapeseed flowers in Xinghua's 'duotian'.
