Dream Lake, located in the urban area of Fuzhou, is the core attraction of Fuzhou’s "One Lake, Two Banks" project! Known for its "clear water, beautiful scenery, and few people," it combines the gentle charm of Jiangnan water towns with the vitality of a modern city, making it especially suitable for weekend strolls, family outings, or romantic dates! 🌿
Recommended Route: Leisure + Night View Double Experience 🚶♀️🌉
Morning: Enter from the Dream Lake Park entrance and stroll along the "Lakeside Trail," a roughly 3-kilometer path lined with shady trees, lawns, and blooming flowers, like being in a "natural oxygen bar." Walk to "Dream Lake Square," the core spot of Dream Lake, where the central fountain dances to music, splashing water everywhere, creating a fantastic atmosphere! 💦
Afternoon: Take a boat tour on Dream Lake, a classic activity here. Tickets cost 30 RMB per person, allowing you to enjoy the lake and mountain scenery and experience the feeling of "sailing on emerald waves, traveling in a painting." After disembarking, visit "Dream Lake Food Street" to taste Fuzhou’s local snacks like "Fuzhou Paofen" and "Nancheng Magu Rice Cake," starting a delicious journey through Fuzhou! 🍜
Experience: A soul cleanse + a feast for the taste buds, so healing! 😌🎶
On the "Lakeside Trail," I seemed to hear birds singing; the shady trees show traces of time and the vitality of life. Standing on "Dream Lake Square," the fountain’s spray cools my face, refreshing to the core. The distant city noise contrasts with the nearby lake’s tranquility, creating a feeling of "dialogue with nature" that makes you want to shout out loud!
