Seven-km northeast of Kaohsiung City, Cheng Ching Lake is a 90-hectare, man-made reservoir surrounded by greenery landscape. Originally named Big Shell Lake, or Big Parapet Lake, the reservoir was revamped in 1954. When it reopened in 1959, it became a popular tourist area and was renamed as Cheng Ching Lake, meaning clear water lake. The area is divided into three sections; the scenic area for the sightseers, the recreational area and the reservoir area. Except for the reservoir, which is closed to the public, the park has attracted hosts of visitors and community dwellers all year around. The reservoir supplies water mainly to the Kaohsiung industrial areas.

Most of the attractions are scattered along both sides of the round-the-lake walkways. Starting from the main entrance, grounds, you will first pass two large aquariums which keep salt water fish and fresh water fish respectively.

From there, you will pass the Nine-turns Bridge, Lotus pond, Fukuo Islet, Chunghsing Islet, Chunghsing Pagoda, Thousand Tree Woodland, Chungling Pagoda, Youth Activity Center, Three Pavilions, and Moon-gazing Building. The Youth Activity Center is equipped with training field, swimming pool, shooting gallery, youth hostel, and campAdjoining the lake is the 18-hole Kaohsiung Golf and Country Club. Nearby, the historical President Chiang’s Administration Building is now open to the public. It houses a mini library where many of the historical governmental and military documents are kept. These include the declaration of surrender by the Japanese after eight years of confrontation with China.
