About 40 kilometers far from downtown Shenyang, Shenyang West Lake is well known for its natural pretty scenery. It was named as “ Jiangnan of Shenyang”. Its main lake area is about 10 thousand mu, with 3 thousand mu covered by water lilies - the reeds rising with the wind, which looks very beautiful. This kind of special scenery is very different from other two west lakes in China.
The islands here Covers an area of almost 700 mu , and aroud the island there are 2000 mu water covered water lilies, this vast lake presents unaffected scenery, making you feel fresh and relaxed. Countless reeds extend far into the distance, interspersed with masses of pink water lilies. Reed catkins are as white as snow flakes. Boating among the water lilies brings you great joy. All the pleasant view wins the honor of No. 1 Water Lilies Town in China.
Like a huge emerald, the lake is green and clear. You can watch fish swim delightedly in the water. In summer, the light pink water lilies bloom all over the lake and send out a delicate fragrance with the gentle breeze. Sitting in the pavilion on the zigzag bridge, you will feel as if transported to the poetic watery villages on the southern bank of the Yangtze River.
Since 1992, the Shenyang Government has paid much attention on the development and construction of Shenyang’s West Lake. They built a series of facilities there, such as restaurants on the water, a fishing terrace, and West Lake Fairyland etc. Every summer or autumn, many visitors come here to enjoy the beautiful scenery and relax themselves.
