📍Stop asking! This is not abroad, it's Mingcui Lake...
Mingcui Lake National Wetland Park was rated as one of the first 'International Wetland Cities' in China in 2018, and it is part of the historical 'Seventy-two Lakes' of Yinchuan~
'Looking far into the distance, a pair of egrets take flight; up close, the wind flips the lotus.' Mingcui Lake has beautiful scenery all year round, with birds singing in spring, lotus in the summer breeze, reed maze in autumn, and ice and snow in winter.
So let's take a tour of Mingcui Wetland and enjoy the beautiful scenery of 'Jiangnan'.
In spring, Mingcui Lake is a great place for city dwellers to go for a walk, hike, and enjoy the flowers, with the lake reflecting the willows, the trees shrouded in mist, crows gathering, and fish jumping.
In summer, the breeze is gentle and the lotus fragrance is overflowing by Mingcui Lake. Boating on the lake in the morning sun, picking lotus, enjoying the reed maze of the wetland, it is refreshing. The cool water expansion project in the scenic area and the lake view hot pot barbecue experience are even more unforgettable.
'The setting sun and the lone duck fly together, the autumn water shares the long sky.' Walking in Mingcui Lake in autumn, picking early autumn lotus pods, chasing the wind in the reeds, admiring the wild chrysanthemums on the roadside, watching the egrets fly together, you can feel the comfortable and leisurely slow life.
