Scenic Spot Introduction
Located six kilometers southwest of the seat of Naiman Banner People's Government, Shelihu Reservoir ranks among China’s 300 large-scale reservoirs, and its exceptionally short main dam is a one-of-a-kind marvel.
Stretching in a ribbon shape, the reservoir extends 25 kilometers from east to west and 2.5 kilometers from north to south. Surrounded by white sand dunes and forests, its shoreline winds along the water, creating endlessly delightful vistas. Since its development as a tourist resort, lush tamarisk trees have flourished across the area, crafting serene scenery that earns it the reputation of "Paradise of the Sand Sea".
Numerous attractions and aquatic activities keep visitors lingering, including the Zigzag Waterway of Ninety-Nine Bends, Jiangnan-style Fishing Village, Mandarin Duck Bridge, Lake View Pavilion and sand sliding grounds. Folk tales of the Southern Wanderer, Golden Horse Colt and Golden Cabbage endow Shelihu Tourist Area with refined charm and an air of mystery. Gazing afar at the rippling green waters, one beholds a breathtaking natural masterpiece of golden sand set against crystal clear blue waves.
