Cao E River is a picturesque spot, and Zaoli Lake is a leisurely destination—Shangyu Zaoli Lake Scenic Area

Zaoli Lake Scenic Area is located in Shangyu District, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province. Zaoli Lake is the largest freshwater lake in Shangyu, with a water area of about 1,500 mu, and is known for its reputation as 'a landscape resembling Qiandao Lake and a beauty akin to Xi Shi'. In the heart of Zaoli Lake, there are small hills scattered about, with the surrounding terrain being flat and open. Walking along the lakeside, the mountains reflect in the water, and the water mirrors the mountains, complementing each other and creating an elegant and tranquil landscape painting. There is also a seventeen-arch bridge on Zaoli Lake, which is 180 meters long and 11 meters wide, connecting the narrowest part between the inner and outer lakes, and is a unique viewing spot on Zaoli Lake. Zaoli Lake Scenic Area is also particularly suitable for driving around the lake. The vast lake surface, the beautiful landscape, the distinctive roads, and the cool breeze by the lake all attract tourists to stop their cars, linger, and forget to return.
