Tuanhu Lotus Park is located within Junshan District, adjacent to the East Dongting Lake area (a national nature reserve), with Provincial Highway 1804 passing by. It covers an area of 5 square kilometers and is an important part of the tourism route: Yueyang Tower -- Dongting Bridge -- Junshan Island -- Lotus Park -- East Dongting Lake -- Tianjing Mountain.
Tuanhu Park has a natural lotus area of over 5,000 mu, making it the largest natural lotus scenic area in Southeast Asia. The park also has high-standard aquaculture waters of over 1,200 mu, currently the largest fishing base in northern Hunan. The park is fully equipped with facilities, with scenery unfolding in pleasing variety, blue skies and clear waters, birdsong and lotus fragrance, making visitors linger and forget to return. It is a rare tourism landscape, attracting many domestic and overseas tourists each year for travel, sightseeing, and leisure.
"Dongting's water is the finest under heaven, Yueyang Tower is the finest tower under heaven, Tuanhu's lotus is the finest lotus under heaven." Climbing the tower to express one's feelings, leaning on the bridge to take in the scenery, resting on the green island, enjoying the lotus at Tuanhu (picking lotus seeds), birdwatching at East Dongting Lake, and exploring the hidden beauty of Tianjing Mountain have formed the distinctive features of Yueyang's tourism route.
Lotus viewing at Tuanhu has become a distinctive brand in the tourism development strategy of Yueyang City and Hunan Province, and has been included as a key development project in the municipal and provincial tourism plans for the Tenth Five-Year Plan period. Its uniquely advantageous transportation and geographical conditions present Tuanhu with enticing development prospects.
