The Yangchenghu Peninsula Tourist Resort in SIP has gained wider attention due to the recent hit TV drama “Shine on Me”, which was adapted from Chinese writer Gu Man’s novel of the same name.

One of the filming locations for the drama is the lakeside cycling path, which stretches about 50 kilometers with 7 kilometers over water. On one side lies the shimmering Yangcheng Lake and on the other is a lush forest hailed as a “natural oxygen bar”. Multiple bike rental stations across the resort make it easy for visitors to enjoy a refreshing ride.

Along the path, wooden pavilions extend over the water, providing perfect spots to rest and immerse in the serene lake views.

For a reunion with families and friends, the Indigo Suzhou Yangcheng Lake, where the annual meeting of the female lead’s company was filmed, is a good option. The hotel features a combination of Jiangnan-style elegance and modernity.

In recent years, the resort has become a favorite filming location for films and TV series, including last year’s highly-acclaimed family drama “As Husband As Wife”. Whether cycling, relaxing by the lake, or dining in style, the resort promises a wonderful escape from the fast-paced urban life.
