Qiandao Lake is like a bright pearl, set in the green mountains and green waters of western Zhejiang. On the weekend, I set off on the journey to Qiandao Lake with expectations. In the early morning, the sun was shining on the lake and sparkling. The lake is crystal clear, as if you can see the tranquility of your heart. The cruise ship slowly advanced in the lake, and the islands were dotted with stars. Some islands were tree-lined and the birds and flowers were fragrant; others were strange rocks and stones, which had a special charm. I stood at the bow, the breeze was blowing, breathing the fresh air, and I was refreshed. Climb up Meifeng Island and follow the winding mountain road. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can see the beautiful scenery of Qiandao Lake. The lake is blue and the islands are scattered, as if you are in a huge landscape painting. In the distance, several sailboats floated on the lake, adding a little bit of agility to this picture. Qiandao Lake is not only picturesque, but also delicious food. The lake is the signature here, the steamed fish head is fresh and juicy, the soup is rich, and each mouth is endless. There are also various mountain and wild flavors, which make people mouthwatering. The trip to Qiandao Lake made me linger. There is both the magic of nature and the unique food culture. I will definitely come again next time and continue to explore this beautiful land.
