Three and a half kilometers northwest of Shanhaiguan, Yansai Lake (Yansai hu), also known as Stone River Reservoir (Shihe shuiku), is now a scenic area that is not too popular but a pretty area where you can boat and fish.
This sight is newly developed and has a fairly balanced eco-system, quiet and well-maintained, in parts. It is unfortunately considered similar to the scenery of Guilin, so recent tourist infrastructure could soon ruin the lakes simple charm.
How to get there: Take bus No.25 from the South Gate, or take bus No.34 from the Railway Station and get off at Wuli Tai, then take a minibus to the lake area.
Opening Hours: Daily; 08:00-18:00.
