Located at Shangguan Village, Malanyu Town, Zunhua City, the Shangguan Lake was named Shangguan Reservoir 24 kilometers from Zunhua City.
In this scenic area green mountains, clear water and grotesque-shaped rocks make a different sight. In the lake there is a small island covering an area of 30,000 square meters. The Cockscomb-Shaped Hill on the island, Double-Breast Hill and Black Water Valley form a natural sight. Small scenic spots like Clever Tortoise Island, Tortoise Fairy Hole, Sky-Supporting Rock, Island in the Lake, Male and Female Urn, Heavenly Book Hill, Fairy Girl in the Mirror and others appeal to your eyes.
According to General Records of Zunhua County, in the 17th fall of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, he toured here and blurted out one poem:
Waterfalls falling along the cliff must be certain.
Cold trees and clouds shroud the sky like a curtain.
North of the Great Wall simple customs are clear.
For many years prestige and virtue have been here.
Legend says that the Ming General Qi Jiguang was once here on his tour and composed some poems. |
