Longyangxia Reservoir

The so-called "dam locks the Yellow River, Gaoxia out of Pinghu", Longyangxia Reservoir also called Longyang Lake. Longyang Lake is the largest artificial freshwater lake on the Yellow River main stream formed by the Longyangxia Hydropower Station intercepting the Yellow River, with a water area of 383 square kilometers and a reservoir capacity of 24.7 billion cubic meters, equivalent to 1700 West Lakes, and is also known as the "sister lake of Qinghai Lake". Longyang Lake is the reservoir area formed by the interception of Longyangxia Hydropower Station. Longyangxia Hydropower Station is the first large-scale step-level power station on the main current of the Yellow River, so it is called the Yellow River "lead" power station. The dam is 178 meters high (equivalent to the height of 60 floors), and in the early stage of construction, it set the national and Asian records with the highest dam height, the largest single capacity, and the largest reservoir capacity, and it is also known as the "first dam of the Yellow River". Longyangxia Reservoir is also the third largest reservoir in the country after the Three Gorges and Danjiangkou Reservoirs. The dam started construction in 1976 and lasted 13 years, and went into production in 1989. Longyangxia Hydropower Station has comprehensive benefits such as annual water storage and power generation, flood control, flood control, irrigation, breeding and tourism. You can take a boat to see the dam up close. Longyangxia Reservoir is in Longyang Lake Park. It is actually Longyang Lake. There is a water park and a special homestay Hongliu Manor. It is mainly a park similar to a city park based on industrial sites. Every year, you can watch the scene of the lake's fishing fire against the starry sky.

Longyangxia Reservoir, I understand that this reservoir is in a variety show before. The reservoir is very large, on the way from Hainanzhou, Qinghai Province to Huangnanzhou. Here are the results of the hard work of several generations.

Longyang Gorge is located in the upper reaches of the Yellow River in Gonghe County, Qinghai, 1,684 kilometers from the birthplace of the Yellow River, and 3,376 kilometers from the mouth of the Yellow River into the sea. It is the first canyon of the Yellow River Canyon area after the Yellow River passes through the Qinghai Prairie. The "Longyang" is Tibetan, that is, the meaning of the trench valley, and the mouth is only 30 meters wide. The canyon is 33 kilometers long and the hard granite walls are nearly 200 meters high. It is an excellent dam site for building hydropower stations.

The "Longyang" is Tibetan, that is, the meaning of the trench valley, and the mouth is only 30 meters wide. The canyon is 33 kilometers long, and the hard granite two walls are erected nearly 200 meters high. It is a great dam site for building hydropower stations. In 1976, the country decided to build the Longyangxia Hydropower Station. The dam site was chosen at this gorge. The hydropower builder added a professional term "gorge" after "long sheep". There is today's title; after the completion of the power station, it has become the first large-scale step-level power station in the upper reaches of the Yellow River. The hydropower station is also known as the "first dam of the Yellow River", known as the Yellow River "faucet" power station; Due to the completion of the hydropower station, the local tourism industry has sprung up, and now it is a national AAAA-level tourist attraction. Longyang Canyon has become also known as the "Colorado of China" Grand Canyon, which is famous overseas.

The reservoir is large, clear, and the surrounding environment is very good. There is currently a free bonfire party in the evening.
