A short hop from the city of Xichang, Qionghai Hu offers some fantastic views of the lake and the mountains around it, as well as opportunities to explore the immediate surroundings like Lu Shan.
The previous day, I had seen Qionghai Hu, or Lake Qionghai, on my way to and from Puge, to the south of Xichang in southern Sichuan province. But this morning, I decided to explore the lake itself, and some of its surrounding area. I took city bus 22 to the last station, and just a few kilometers south of Xichang, I already saw the lake on the left. Rays of sunlight were falling through the cloudy sky and shedding light on the tranquil waters of the lake. At the final stop, I decided to continue walking along its shore, and ended up walking on some narrow paths cutting through agricultural fields on the southern side of the lake. From here, the views of the lake and the surrounding mountains are superb. Even though the lake is quite big at 31 square km, it looked like a perfect mirror, reflecting the mountains around it and the cloudy sky. There is more to Qionghai Hu than just the lake itself, and my next destination was Lu Shan, a mountain on the western side of the lake. I declined all the offers to take me up in a car made at its base, right on the shore of Qionghai Hu, because I wanted to walk up.
