Manshan Island (漫山岛) is now opening and accessible by ferry lines! You can take the ferry at Taihu Lake No. 3 Bridge Ferry Port.
Manshan Island is located in Guangfu Town, Wuzhong District, with an area of 1.46 square kilometers. As the third largest island in Taihu Lake, Manshan Island is about 3.5 kilometers away from Chongshan Peninsula and blessed with picturesque scenery and pristine environment. Traditional lifestyle unique to Jiangnan water town is kept intact here.
If you are looking for a good refuge from the hustle and bustle in the urban centers, Manshan Island will be an ideal destination for you. The island offers a whole myriad of recreational activities.
At sunrise, a short hike will offer you a good chance to soak in the beauty of changing sunlight over the Taihu Lake. While enjoying solitude, you can also explore the visit-made paths and see where it leads.
There is a bird themed library on the island, which grew out of a local primary school. A cup of coffee, a book, and a cat will make for a relaxed and cozy afternoon.
The island is also a go-to place for family time. Just pick a random spot and set up camp, and you’ll have all it needs to spend a good time with you family: sightseeing, hiking, watching birds…
