Taihu is noted for its “Huating Lake” with its mountains and scenic waters. The lake was originally built for flood control and power generation with a dam constructed in the 1960s. Although it was formerly blamed for destroying large areas of farm land, it has evolved into a popular tourism location. The county has a long history of Zen, an important tributary of Chinese Buddhism.
