Come to Chengdu to see the sea

Sancha Lake.
Enjoy the sea view at Sancha Lake and the joy of cycling 15 kilometers round trip along the lake

When there are clouds, of course you have to go to a place with water. The shadows of the clouds on the water must look like a dream.

Because there are many villages and towns along the road of Sancha Lake, and it is not a waterfront area, it is not convenient for vehicles to enter. Therefore, I chose to ride a shared bicycle for a 15-kilometer round trip to Sancha Lake. There are many forks leading into the lake area along the way, which has a high safety factor and is suitable for a one-person cycling outing.

The first stop of navigation: Sancha Lake Bicycle Rental Point. After parking the bike, continue navigating to Ma'anshan Observation Deck.
🚖Parking fee 10 yuan
Tickets: 0 yuan
🚲 Shared bicycle round trip 10 yuan

🔶🔶Recommended photography spots along the way🔶🔶

✅Taoyuanba Leisure Road, you can see Longquan Mountain in the distance from the dam, there are people fishing and camping by the lake, the water area is wide

✅There is an independent big tree in Sancha Lake Pomegranate Island Leisure Villa, giving you a feeling of being isolated from the world. You can camp under the tree and wait for the sunset.

✅Find the dam next to the tea bar and the gravel riverbank, it feels like walking on the seaside.

✅Bai San Road Dam, looking straight ahead from Xunjian Tea Bar, you can see the small orange-roofed house on the dam.

✅The highest point of the observation deck, overlooking the entire dam, it is best to wait until a red car passes by.

✅After returning to the starting point, follow Jiansan Road to the end. The waters are relatively narrow, so I prefer to use a telephoto lens to frame the picture. The edges of the islands are winding and crisscrossed. When taking pictures of the buildings on the opposite side, the mountains are crisscrossed and looming. The nearby buildings are located by the water, and the picture has a stronger sense of story.

In general, families with children can choose free camping, families with many elders can book a farm stay, and couples or solo travelers can choose cycling to add points to the fun and photo-taking index.
