Nestled in Huanggang City, Hubei Province, Yi'ai Lake Park is rewriting the playbook for cultural tourism with its magical blend of Northern Song Dynasty heritage and pristine wetlands. 🌊 Named after literary legend Su Shi (aka Dongpo), this 4A-rated gem shows how history and nature can tango perfectly.
More Than Just Scenic Views
Walk through bamboo groves 🎋 and you'll stumble upon poetry stones engraved with Dongpo's verses—like stepping into an 11th-century TikTok feed. The park's wetland ecosystem shelters over 120 bird species, turning birdwatching into a real-life Pokémon GO adventure.
