The Eyot

The oval-shaped island looks like a whale. As the water rises and falls the island comes close or distant from the one in the south. On the eyot, there are extraordinary plant vies. In the southeastern part there is a botanical garden with more than 470 species, among which are rare plants as eucommia, yellow firs etc.

Up front on the left in the lake, there is a small island which looks like a mossback, namely the Linggui Island. Legend has it that a 10,000-year old tortoise saved Lan Caihe, one of the 8 immortals, who negligently delayed the tortoise's time to become an immortal. The tortoise had to wait more than 3,000 years and finally turned into an island.
