Located in Yangzhou, east China's Jiangsu Province, Luyang Lake Wetland Park is known as the "forest above the water" in the city. Surrounded by a verdant forest, tourists can row boats through the trees on a green lake covered with duckweed while soaking up the surrounding natural beauty. The wetland serves as a natural oxygen bar for visitors thanks to the constant efforts of the local officials. The area has been transformed from a remote, barren village into a popular tourist destination that combines agriculture and tourism, attracting numerous visitors every year.
