Ecological Restoration of Tongjian Lake Park

Year

Status
Built

Tongjian Lake, located in Shuangpu Town of Hangzhou, is historically the sister lake to the famous West Lake. Positioned at the convergence of the Qiantang, Fuchun, and Puyang Rivers, it was a key ferry point in southern Hangzhou and a significant cultural hub during the Southern Song Dynasty. Over time, sediment from the Qiantang River and land reclamation projects caused the lake's waters to recede. This led to local water shortages, flooding problems, and a fragile ecosystem. The project's challenge was to improve flood control while enhancing water quality, ecology, landscape, and regional cultural-economic revitalization.
