Xinyang harbors a hidden water forest

Xinyang harbors a hidden water forest.|||As an outdoor enthusiast, I have a particular fondness for Xinyang's Borden Forest Park. I've visited multiple times, bringing my parents and friends from other places. This year, the mountain streams are not as strong, and the waterfalls and streams are smaller, which is a bit disappointing. However, the bald cypress forest remains unchanged, full of vitality, deeply rooted in the mountains. Starting on the trail, it doesn't take long to reach Ming Lake. This spot is especially picturesque, with the bald cypress forest in the water and the thatched cottages in the distance, evoking the atmosphere of the movie 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon'. Every time I come here, I end up staying too long at this spot, reluctant to leave. Once, I brought a close friend from Beijing, and she couldn't resist performing a set of Baduanjin exercises by the lake, saying that it would be a waste not to do so in such an environment. Another time, I brought my parents, and we set up a lightweight outdoor table and chairs by the lake to enjoy some tea. Having seen the summer and autumn here, I hope to catch Borden's snow and rain to experience a different kind of beauty! Parking fee is 20 yuan per car, entrance ticket is 45 yuan per person, and the ferry car costs 10 yuan per person for a one-way trip. Apart from the elderly and children, we should still hike up and down, after all, it's a free oxygen bar, a rare opportunity to cleanse our eyes and lungs!
