Dongshan Lake Park: An Oasis in the City

Dongshan Lake Park is an old park. For the older generation in Guangzhou, it is a park they dug out with their own hands. It is a memory for them and a place where they sweated when they were young. There are four artificial lakes in Guangzhou, all of which were dug out by the older generation with shovels, and Dongshan Lake is one of them. It is an oasis hidden in the old city, where you can see the Canton Tower and the East and West Towers of Zhujiang New Town. It is also a good place to bring children to play. It has now become a popular spot for taking photos, and many people are taking pictures with cameras or mobile phones. The photo rate is quite high. There are also many cats in this park, and many kind people feed them. There is also a lake tour here. In addition to taking photos in the park, you can also rent a small boat to take some beautiful photos on the boat. The scenery and the water reflect each other, giving a feeling of two worlds. Donghu Park has a zigzag bridge. Taking photos with the Canton Tower on the zigzag bridge, plus the exotic kapok blooming in Guangzhou during this period, has a special flavor. There are also many birds here. In addition to wild birds, there are also several black swans here, swimming in the clear water, sometimes bowing their heads and sometimes playing happily, just like the description in Luo Binwang's "Ode to the Goose". It is suitable for bringing children to play. There is a small water fountain in the middle. The venue is not big, but it is a lot of fun for children. Dongshan Lake doesn't look big, but it is a very good oasis in the city. Dongshan Lake Park is connected to the Pearl River by water and to Ersha Island by road. If you want to have a special forces-style tour, you can go to Ersha Island opposite after visiting Dongshan Lake Park.
