The scenic spot "Yuedao Wenying" is located in the south area of the Grand Canal Cultural Tourism Scenic Area. Yuedao is featured by a convex and concave terrain formed in the process of river training in the North Canal. Surrounded by water on all sides, it resembles a crescent moon, hence the name Yuedao (which literally means "moon island" in Chinese). Yuedao Wenying has a planned area of 256 mu (about 17.06 hectares). Various trees, shrubs, flowers and grasses are planted all over the island, providing an unprecedented natural environment for nesting birds. Birds come here in large droves, with bird and insect chirping to be heard everywhere on the island. In addition to nature's singing, you can also see eye-catching green vegetation, and nightingales that soothe the heart. Moreover, Yuedao Wenying is also a sacred place for lotus viewing. The 100-mu-large (about 6.67 hectares) lotus pond is divided into two by a long bridge. Looking from afar, the emerald green lotus leaves are dotted with pink lotus, a great feast for your eyes.
