Yuantouzhu Scenic Area, or "Turtle Head Isle," is a popular tourist resort on Taihu Lake. Its name derives from a colossal rock protruding into the lake, which looks like a sea turtle raising its head.
Yuantouzhu is known for its natural landscapes, pastoral scenes, and classical Jiangnan-style gardens.
It is a gift endowed by nature, as people can bask in the green hills and crystal-clear water.
Here, you can enjoy the beauty and magnificence of Taihu Lake. There are sakura flowers in full bloom in spring, vast green waves in summer, beautiful fallen leaves in autumn and tree branches covered in frost and snow in winter. The mist-covered Taihu Lake is also stunning.
The lake and mountain at sunset and the fishermen's songs at night always create a romantic atmosphere.
