Lianghong Wetland Park
Located inside the Exhibition Park of Chinese Wu Culture in Wuxi's Xinwu district, Lianghong National Wetland Park is close to Taibo Canal and bordered by Cao Lake in the east and Wangyu River in the south. It is named after the legend of Liang Hong and Meng Guang, who, after their marriage, treated each other with great courtesy.
The park integrates natural wetlands with rustic charm, attractive water culture and pristine pastoral scenery. Tourists are able to feel relaxed enjoying an abundance of rivers, lakes and lush green vegetation, with boats gently swaying on the water and birds flying above.
Visitors can row boats, learn the soft Suzhou dialect, listen to local folk songs and appreciate the scenery. Tourists can also trace the clues of the historic story of Taibo, the ancestor of Jiangnan who regulated the rivers and watercourses, and the love story of Liang Hong and Meng Guang by traveling overland and experiencing Wu culture in Lianghong Wetland, including its water conservancy, farming, old bridges, romantic tales and farming life.
