- This is a great park where it always has something on the lake, either boating or ice skating. There are bars, restaurants, and shopping. I prefer a beautiful lake over the masses on nanluoguxiang
- Dave McMarch 30, 2023The lake is pretty fun, but also crowded with pretty aggressive pedicab drivers that hunt you incessantly. Probably better at night with all the bars lining the lake. 🍻
- Bibishi NuMay 1, 2016This place is really nice, prices are really good, live music and good vibe. Better visit in the summer.
- Dave McMarch 30, 2023Beware of the boat rides, they’re fun but they let anyone with ¥200 drive them so there’s all kinds of collisions! 🚤
- Ivan GarinSeptember 24, 2015One of the most folkloric places in Beijing. If you are in winter, don't miss the ice skating. In summer, if you don't fear to suffer from mutation go for a dip.
- Jyldyz SattarovaDecember 13, 2014Saw ice-skating on the lake, a bunch of ducks dwelling on a side and floating beside the edge. Lots of parked boats, which are probably all around the lake in spring and summer time.
- Parisa HaqiqatJanuary 11, 2015At winter u can enjoy ice skating n at summer rent a boat n go around the lake but restaurants n bars around the lake have expensive price
- Emily XuNovember 26, 2018There are popular bars along the Houhai Bar Street, beautiful scenery from the lakes and lots of old Beijing snacks. What Beijing looks like.
- Kristina TsanovaOctober 10, 2014Beautiful at sunset. Try some of the bars with a rooftop terrace if the weather is good. The view is worth it.
- Herbert YangApril 14, 2012almost the most lovely place in all Beijing. Get off from taxi at Lotus Market, walk around the lake clockwise.. countless restaurants and bars, many live music performances

- Xiao YuJuly 1, 2018Be extremely forceful. Belittle, insult, intimidate your way into not getting scammed.
- Paco PalaNovember 16, 2016Déjà, avec sa pagode, le lac est beau, ensuite, c'est un lieu de vie pékinoise. Mais en hiver, ça devient carrément foufou, avec côte à côte les patineurs et ceux qui viennent prendre un bain glacé!
- Belem CeballosAugust 26, 2015Caminas como loco mientras ves mil puestos de lo que te imagines para terminar en algún bar al pie del lago. Ojo, no hay comida para ordenar en ningún bar, come antes de llegar al lago!
- Diego RufoMarch 11, 2011Precioso lago en una de las zonas más tradicionales de China. Ni se te ocurra marcharte sin haberte tomado una cerveza en la calle Shishahai, con el lago en el horizonte... Read more
