Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Thousand Islands, Canada is located near Kingston, more than 200 kilometers southwest of Ottawa. Kingston is also known as the "Water City" because of its location at the junction of the Great Lakes, and was a well-known water transport fortress long ago. The Thousand Islands of Qiandao Lake refers to the stretch of the St. Lawrence River connecting with Lake Ontario. There are more than 1,800 islands of different sizes scattered. The smaller is just a reef, and the larger can reach several square miles. The definition of an island in Qiandao Lake is very interesting. It is said that as long as there are two trees growing out of the water, it can be called an island. These islands spread across the St. Lawrence River like stars, like a fairyland in a fairy tale.

We really didn’t know what to expect but our family was captivated by the city, the scenery and the area. We planned a short overnight stay but ended up staying 2 nights and it was a pleasure!
Mainly to see Heart Island. It is said that Bolt Castle was the richest man in the United States in the early last century after Bolt bought the Heart Island to build a most luxurious castle for his wife. Since 1900, the castle has been built for four years. Unexpectedly, Bolt's wife died before the castle was almost completed, so Bolt never stepped on Heart Island again. Later, Heart Island was bought by the US government and developed into a tourist attraction in Qiandao Lake District. Sure enough, the building with the story can stimulate imagination.
