Introduction

The Qingyuanshan Park, located at the southern foot of Qingyuan Mountain in the northwestern part of Quanzhou city, is an important component of the Northwest Flood Detention and Drainage Project. The park consists of four islands, three bridges, and three water areas with a total area of 100 hectares and a water area of 82.28 hectares, making it the largest artificial lake in Fujian province. The four islands are Maple Island (the central island), Peach Blossom Island, Ecological Island, and Fruit Island, and the three bridges are 21-hole Bridge (based on the design of 17-hole Bridge in Beijing's Summer Palace), Single-hole Bridge (based on the design of Yudai Bridge in Wujiang), and Five-hole Bridge (based on the design of Wuting Bridge in Yangzhou's Slender West Lake). In addition, there are five specialized gardens in the park, including Pine and Cypress Garden, Palm Tree Garden, and Bamboo Garden. Thirteen commemorative forests have been established, including the "International Friendship Forest", "International Youth Friendship Forest", "Youth Civilization Green Park", and "Voluntary Tree Planting Forest", with more than 200 species of green trees planted. The park is filled with blooming flowers, sparkling waters, jumping fish and shrimp, and resting egrets amidst harmonious lake and mountain scenery, making it a classical lakeside garden with a good ecological environment in the urban area of Quanzhou.
