Sichuan Province, Mianyang City, Xianhai Lake, the water and sky are the same color.
The water area of Xianhai Scenic Area is 7 square kilometers, while the rest is made up of peninsulas of varying sizes. The land area is vast, with a planned area of 43.28 square kilometers for a national tourist resort, and an initial development area of 13.8 square kilometers.
The total area of the scenic area is 75 square kilometers. According to the overall plan prepared by the China Urban Planning and Design Institute, the construction goal of Xianhai Water Conservancy Scenic Area is to become a distinctive national tourist resort and a model area for urban-rural coordinated development in Mianyang City.
The core area centered on Xianhai Lake is composed of 6.8 square kilometers of shallow hills and low mountains and 7 square kilometers of water surface. The forest coverage rate reaches 90%, and the vertical depth of the lake surface reaches 3.8 kilometers, forming 46 exquisite peninsulas. The peninsulas are interlaced, the lake shore is winding, and the mooring shore is more than 40 kilometers long. The natural environment is "mountains embracing water, water flooding mountains" and "mountains lining water, water reflecting mountains". The combination of mountains, water, and colors forms a natural picture of water and milk blending. The water quality is clear and is a secondary surface water source. There are also diverse animals and plants such as cormorants, egrets, wild fish schools, and ginkgo trees.
4 scenic areas involve aspects such as meetings, catering, accommodation, entertainment, water sports, and land-based cycling and fitness activities.
In 2015, the resort area successfully obtained the titles of "National AAAA-level Tourist Scenic Spot", "Provincial Tourist Resort", "Provincial Ecotourism Demonstration Zone" and "Provincial Safe Community" all at once.
In 2016, 2.146 million tourists were received and the total tourism revenue was 268 million yuan. Xianhai has become one of the important destinations for leisure and vacation for Chengdu and Mianyang residents in the suburbs.

🌈 Highlights: This is the small Maldives known as Mianyang. There are beaches 🏖️ but we didn't go there when we were tight. We only went to take a boat 🚢. The boat has yachts, pedal boats, hand-skiing boats, etc. The cost is about dozens of yuan per capita. We take an electric boat for 120 hours. The 4 of us look like 40 yuan. When the weather is good, it feels really a bit like the beach 🌊. If you can't go to the beach, you can go to the lake to have an addiction. 🚗 Address traffic: Our purpose is to navigate the good luck pier by boat, choose to drive by car, and find traffic control when you arrive at the scenic spot. Fortunately, I found a location closer to the pier and walked over. It's just that there is no white run this time, and there are really many cars on holidays. 🎫 Ticket information: No tickets, just take the boat to ask for money. There is also an artificial beach 🏖️ that is charged, and we are not in a hurry. ✨ Tips: Be sure to go early, try to avoid the peak of the holiday, otherwise traffic control. It takes about half a day to walk the whole lake, and there is no much food near the scenic spot.
The beautiful Xianhai Lake Scenic Area, lush trees, sparkling lake surface, it is beautiful to shoot from different angles! Some angles look even like the scenery of Jiuzhaigou. Whether it is hiking, cycling, or leisure sightseeing, it is a good place to go. I once accompanied a friend from Wuhan to visit our Xianhai Lake in Mianyang. She said that it was as beautiful as their East Lake! I think it is more beautiful than East Lake. The key is that I don't charge tickets! You can eat the delicious hot pot fish and Tai'an fish nearby 🐟!
Xianhai Scenic Area is transformed by a reservoir and upgraded by real estate development and tourism facilities. The scenery is average, the mountains and clear waters are beautiful, there are no outstanding characteristics, but the road around the lake is well repaired, cycling, self-driving, running, camping, and summer vacation are all good places.
Where do you go by the sightseeing car on the roadside? I said I walked a few kilometers. 10 yuan is too expensive, he said 10 yuan is expensive. In the city of 10 yuan, taxis are more than running 1.5 kilometers. He said that my legs are more expensive, these staff are too unqualified, the scenic spot is originally poor, I am too lazy to say that I am almost panicked, let's not talk about service awareness, look down on people, do you say this place should be closed?
Xianhai Lake is the Shenkang Reservoir. It is a large storage reservoir in Fuzi Main Channel of Wudu Water Diversion Project. The Wudu Water Diversion Project is called the second Dujiangyan by Comrade Xiaoping. Mianyang City suffered the biggest flood since the founding of the People's Republic in 2018. The Wudu Water Diversion Project has played a huge role in regulating and storing water and protected the safety of Mianyang's construction. After many years of construction, the natural scenery of Xianhai Lake is very beautiful. It is a model of harmonious coexistence between human and nature. The scenic spot is ten kilometers away from Mianyang City and is the back garden of Mianyang City.
Closer to the city, the road is easy to drive. No tickets, parking 5 yuan. There is a battery ferry. Help the old and bring the young together without walking. Drink tea and play cards or be dazed by the lake. Or, rent a bicycle to ride around the lake, which is said to be 36 kilometers and takes 2.5 hours.
