The lake came into being along with the construction of the Tianshengqiao aquatic power station in 1998. It took its name because it is lying in the arms of innumerable high peaks. The lake has a surface area of 176 square kilometer and a volume 10.26 billion cubic meters. Being one of the five major fresh water lakes in China, it boasts more than 30 isles, 58 peninsulas, 82 bays (40 are deep water bays) and 12 inner lakes. The lake is noted for its green water, reflection of peaks, and the varied sceneries at different time of a day.
