Situated in the heart of Wulingyuan Scenic Area, Baofeng Lake is the region’s only water-focused tourist attraction in Zhangjiajie.
A natural lake-centered scenic spot, Baofeng Lake seamlessly blends picturesque landscapes with cultural elements and is often hailed as a China and “World-Class Lake.” Surrounded by lush mountains, the lake is known for its crystal-clear waters, tree-lined islands, and captivating views, making it a treasure in the region’s natural landscape. The Baofeng Lake Scenic Area is made up of Baofeng Lake and Yingwo Village. Together, these sites form the “Four Wonders of Wulingyuan”—Baofeng Lake, the Qifeng Waterfall, the Village of Eagle Nest Yingwozhai, and A Thread of Sky (Yixiantian)—each demonstrating the incredible artistry of nature. As a rare high-altitude lake, Baofeng Lake offers a serene, almost poetic atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for visitors to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature and local cultural traditions in their China travel.
