  • Tiaodunhe Reservoir Dashanbao Nature Reserve, Zhaotong

    The magnificent and colorful Dashanbao nature reserve benefits from the mist-covered boundless Tiaodunhe Reservoir(跳墩河水库) which is a plateau reservoir of more than 340 hectares, nestling in the rolling hills, like a fairy mirror reflecting the broadness, vastness, tranquility and profundity of this place.

    Tiaodunhe Reservoir was originally a series of natural small lakes and wetlands. After the expansion of water area, the surrounding ecology has changed significantly, and it has become the main wintering habitat of black-necked crane in Dashanbao Nature Reserve. Hence, locals call it "Crane Lake".

    Every early autumn, the black-necked crane flying from the remote Qinghai-Tibet plateau. Just at the same time, the bird lovers, photographers, and researchers from far and near follows. "Crane Lake" is the home of black-necked crane, as well as the paradise of bird lovers and photographers.
