What travellers say about Qiandao Lake

Qiandao Lake's charm lies in its expansive and expansive island layout, clean water, and strong sense of natural beauty, making it ideal for leisurely vacations and road trips around the lake. Taking a boat to the islands is a unique feature, but the boat routes are fixed, and long queues at the docks can occur during holidays. The attractions are scattered, making it inconvenient without a car. The overall pace is relaxed, not suitable for those seeking a dense itinerary; those who prefer lake views, leisurely walks, and a slower pace will enjoy it.

Visiting Qiandao Lake in early November was a good value for money. It was very affordable for us, as we preferred natural scenery and leisurely strolls rather than large-scale entertainment. Meifeng Island and Longshan Island in the central lake area are highly recommended. The other two, Moonlight Island and Fishing Island, are purely for entertainment and have no special features.

The sunset view of the lake from the Tianyu Mountain viewing platform is absolutely stunning and highly recommended. The escalator to the viewing platform is effortless, and on the way down, you can enjoy the water slide – a little thrilling – which leads directly to the parking lot, making it incredibly convenient.

This season is truly wonderful for a visit; the Southeast Lake area pier avoids the crowds, allowing you to fully enjoy the tranquility of the lake and mountain scenery. We upgraded to a cabin on the second floor, which offered access to the deck for taking photos and admiring the surrounding views. The tour guide's explanations were also very helpful.

The whole process is effortless. Three elevators take you up the mountain to the observation deck. Continuing upwards, there's a gate for taking photos. If you don't want to explore other areas, you can follow the signs to take the water slide down. However, you can actually continue walking upwards. 1-2 hours is enough. The water slide is very fun, long enough, a little thrilling but not scary.

Meifeng Island is the most worthwhile destination in Qiandao Lake, with beautiful scenery. However, the ticket price is a bit expensive, and you need to purchase a cable car ticket separately. The cruise ship has two levels, with the economy class on the lower level offering a less desirable experience. A premium business class experience requires an additional fee to purchase on-site.

If price isn't a factor, this is a pretty good adventure park where you can experience fun that many other parks don't offer. What I especially enjoyed was the cable car ride upwards. During the ascent, you can see many distant natural landscapes, and when you reach the highest point, you can overlook Thousand Island Lake.

If you don't want to go to the islands, the botanical garden is a great choice for your trip. It's rich in negative oxygen ions, has beautiful scenery on sunny days, and you can get close to various animals. It's also suitable for camping and picnics.

The number one lake view in East China, bar none! The weather was great today, the rain stopped and it wasn't sunny. We visited Osmanthus Island with monkeys, Tianchi Island with koi carp, and Huangshan Peak overlooking the magnificent island group. We also rented a drone for aerial photography, and successfully completed our trip.

After waiting for 2 days, we finally waited for an hour without wind and rain. The store contacted us and said that we could fly at 4pm. We grabbed our kids and went there. We finally got on the hot air balloon. Although the clouds were still very thick, it did not affect the beautiful scenery. We also saw Phnom Penh in the sun. We were so lucky😀
