Jiulong Hill in Pinghu area is known for its pine woods, long lakeside beach, reef, unusual rock formations and ancient Buddhist temples and culture.
South Lake, which lies south of Jiaxing, was famous in the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD) for its natural landscape, which includes a small islet.
The lake also witnessed the birth of Communist Party of China, as the CPC was officially founded during a boat meeting in 1921.
