Lu Bu Ge Artificial Lake in Qujing

The formation of Bu Lu Ge artificial lake was from the Bu Lu Ge power station. After the power station storing water and starting power generation, the former deep and serene and mysterious valley became an artificial lake with the length of 19.8 kilometers. Some students who have been there during the period when they learn Chinese in the city of Kunming said that the widest part of the lake might be as wide as 500 meters while the narrowest part might be 30 meters.

On both sides of the artificial lake are the precipitous cliffs and a group of mountains. There are some main scenic spots you should visit when you go there. The Lion Valley was named because the large stone on the rock looks like a lion. Another one you should know is Diling Valley. In the dialect of Buyi people, Diling means monkey. On these cliffs, you can see some nimble and lovely monkeys. Some visitors ever saw the famous snub-nosed monkeys with golden fur there.

The Double Elephants Valley is named also because of the shape of two drinking elephants lowering their heads. Besides, you can see waterfall in this artificial lake. If you visit Lu Bu Ge artificial lake when you learn Mandarin Chinese, there is no need to worry about the food and accommodation. With the blooming development of tourism there, many people set up numerous hostels with good environment but cheap price. You can use the appliance of the rooms free.

In the hostels provided by the local citizens, delicious and fresh food is also available. There are not so many restaurants around it and you may be possibly have dinner in the hostel. But the most important thing is that the foods provided are all authentic and traditional Yunnan foods. Of course, the students who study abroad in China should know how to get there. In the station of Qujing, there is one bus departure to Lu Bu Ge power station each hour and it will take you only 40 minutes.

Even though Lu Bu Ge is only an artificial lake, it has beautiful scenery to enjoy. However, the power station might inevitably influence the natural environment there. Therefore, the local government has carried out some measures to protect the natural landscape from pollution so that the tourists can always enjoy the comfortable environment.
