As Hefei's flagship urban park, Swan Lake takes its name from its sweeping, wing-shaped shoreline. Framed by shimmering water and ribbons of greenery, the district has grown into a new civic living space where ecological scenery meets cultural life and a modern skyline. With a history stretching back more than two thousand years, Hefei is the capital of Anhui Province and the hometown of the famously incorruptible official Bao Zheng, long celebrated in opera and literature as a symbol of justice. The city sits at the heart of the Jianghuai cultural belt, nurturing local traditions such as the Lu Opera and Chaohu folk songs, which are still performed today. Around Swan Lake, this heritage is woven into contemporary urban spaces, offering a portrait of a city that honors its past while embracing innovation – a spirit now stepping onto the Spring Festival Gala stage.
