A view of the lake at Yunman Park in Anshun.

Because they are often very beautiful, lakes are popular recreation and vacation spots. People seek out their sparkling waters to enjoy boating, swimming, water-skiing, fishing, sailing, and, in winter, ice skating, ice boating, and ice fishing.

Many public parks are built near lakes, allowing people to picnic, camp, hike, bike, and enjoy the wildlife and scenery the lake provides.

For some people, lakes are permanent homes. For example, indigenous people in Pingba have lived on near Yunman near Gaofeng Mountains for centuries. The lake supplies almost everything they need. They catch fish from the lake, and even earn and enjoy from the tourism.
