Did you know that two of most successful reservoirs in Guangdong have been renamed, one Heyuan and other Dongguan?
Guangdong is an important central province with a developed economy in my country, bordering Hong Kong and Macau, surrounded by sea and mountains. Back in BC, there were traces of people living and developing here, during Qin Dynasty it was divided into several counties and was a battlefield for military strategists.
During Sui and Tang dynasties, Guangdong had its original name, which was used until 21st century. During Ming and Qing dynasties, Hainan was also part of Guangdong, and southernmost point could reach Zengmu Ansha. Today, importance of Guangdong cannot be underestimated. This is not only an important economic development reform area.

There are also ports with developed foreign trade. It plays an important role in cultural exchanges, scientific and technological progress and other fields. In recent years, overall economic value of Guangdong Province has steadily increased.
In such a flat area, there are two famous reservoirs: Xinfengjiang Reservoir and Songmushan Reservoir. They play a huge role. Follow my footsteps to appreciate their uniqueness.

One. Xinfengjiang Reservoir
The water of Xinfeng River, judging by its name, can reflect its splendor and vitality. Since it is located in Guangdong Province, climate is pleasant and four seasons are not very distinct, but each season has its own unique color. Xinfengjiang Reservoir not only provides water to residents of surrounding area, as well as industrial and agricultural water, but also has a dam.
The dam is surrounded by large power plants that use potential energy of water to transform and benefit people. Overlooking Xinfengjiang Reservoir, a huge blue-green screen is dotted with several lush islands, and white boats bobbing upstream are scattered across lake.

All beautiful landscapes are like a vast ink landscape, with dynamic creatures becoming finishing touch, alive and well on paper. In 1960s, Xinfengjiang Reservoir was successfully built.
From a small river with a single dam at beginning to a huge ecosystem of mountains and rivers, after decades of perfect restoration, it has gradually gained momentum and become known for thousands of miles. The environmental value is important, but industrial value cannot be destroyed. The Xinfengjiang Reservoir has a huge area and an amazing water storage capacity.

As a famous ecosystem,the reservoir has pure water quality and minerals, and dozens of surface water resources can be used in many provinces and cities. There are several towns around reservoir whose residents rely on fishing to grow their economy and support their families. Then comes tertiary industry.
Tourism plays a huge role in development of Xinfengjiang Reservoir. During harvest period, ethnic minority cuisine attracted many Chinese and foreign tourists here.Including stuffed tofu, yellow rice wine, and special salted meat and vegetable rice. , all of which are rarely tasty. People flock to it, queuing for hours to try these fresh delicacies. You can also play in water on a boat in summer, take a boat, travel through green water and green mountains, and enjoy scenery of river.

two. Pine Hill Reservoir
Songshan Lake, formerly known as Songmushan Reservoir, is a huge natural reservoir. It is located in Dongguan urban area adjacent to three cities and surrounded by innovation development parks and technology industrial parks. During new phase of urban construction, Songmushan Reservoir was completely renamed Songshan Lake.
For decades of development in Dongguan, Songshan Lake is best witness. In early days, it was just a small pond, and surrounding inhabitants drank and fished in pond. With economic prosperity of Dongguan, importance of city has increased dramatically, and Songshan Lake has become a carrier that opens up a new world around it.

Walking along Songshan Lake, you will understand meaning of a small European town. Hundreds of tall maple trees are planted by lake, and green hills can be seen in distance. The sandy beach by lake has a dull yellow color in sun and, unlike sandy beach by sea, is characterized by a high content of silt.
You can take a boat through forest to first small island. There are white windmills and small pavilions in center of island. From afar, it looks like a large farmland in Denmark. A breeze is blowing and you can smell fresh and natural floral fragrance.

In addition, there is a small city built by Huawei, a European architectural complex that combines technology, culture and tradition. With a bicycle, you can move around city freely.
There is a huge library in scenic area, Dongguan Municipal Library, which has a huge collection of books. It is hidden in a group of villas, and surrounding villas are uniquely built and have a unique style, echoing green mountains and green waters, creating a radiant scene.

Today's Songshan Lake is still under development. Even though it integrates economy, trade, culture, entertainment, service and health care, there is still a lot of room for improvement.
The next step is to integrate a larger technological scheme around scenic spot and develop innovative industries. When building a residential complex, we also do not forget to invest in obtaining energy at a commercial level.

The local conditions and customs of Guangdong are manifested in many aspects, and only by visiting this place in person, you can experience its unique features. Whether you come here to enjoy the beautiful scenery, travel, study, develop or find a place to work, this is a rare place.
