Yuantouzhu Park, located at the most beautiful corner of Taihu Lake, is a gift endowed by nature. It allows people to indulge themselves in the green hills and crystal-clear water.
Here, visitors can enjoy the magnificence of Taihu Lake – there are cherry blossoms in spring, a boundless stretch of clear water in summer, beautiful fallen leaves in autumn and tree branches covered by frost and snow in winter. The mist-covered Taihu Lake is amazing.
The lake and mountain under the light of the setting sun and the fishermen's songs at night always create a poetic atmosphere.
