Live Your Best Lives
Lishui's recreational activities are mostly based on nature. If you visit Lishui in the summer, rafting is the best option. Rafting in Lishui includes Oujiang River rafting, Suichang Shenlong Valley rafting, and Suichang Wuxi River rafting. The rafting season is from April to October each year.
In the south of Lishui City, there is a river with a story flowing through it, and its name is Oujiang River. Like many other rivers flowing in the south, Oujiang River always flows gently and gracefully, slowly passing through the rice fields, villages and hills on both sides. The winding Oujiang River is the mother river of the people of Lishui. It is 388 kilometers long. Among them, the most beautiful water and scenery are the twelve-mile waterway from Bihu Baikou Village to Taoshan on the outskirts of Lishui City. Take a small boat and drift on the river with the breeze and rippling blue waves. Along the way, there are undulating mountains, dotted with fishing boats, egrets flying, and green scenery everywhere, with a round field scenery. Rafting is for 6 people per boat
