CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- At the mention of sea, coastal cities first come to mind. Chongqing is far from the sea, but it has many places similar to the sea. Yes, they are lakes. Let’s go to see these beautiful lakes in Chongqing.
Qinglong Lake 青龙湖
Qinglong Lake is about 60km away from downtown Chongqing, with elevations between 400 and 800 meters. The scenic area covers over 50km2, with fifteen hectares of water. Due to the frequently foggy weather in the scenic area, clouds and mist often veil the lake. It has a short summer and long spring, with relatively small seasonal temperature differences. The lake is very vast and the water is very clear, with mountains reflected in it. There are also boats to be seen.
