Qiandao Lake is located in Chun'an County, Zhejiang Province. In 1959, the Xin'an River Reservoir was built, and the towering dam intercepted the upper reaches of the Xin'an River into a huge lake with vast waves. The continuous high mountains submerge into the lake and become large and small islands, with a total of 1078, hence the name "Thousand Island Lake". The water area of ??Qiandao Lake is 575 square kilometers, more than 100 times larger than Hangzhou West Lake, and its water storage capacity is 17.8 billion cubic meters, equivalent to 3,184 West Lakes.
