Erhai Lake was called Kunming Pool, Hull River and Ye Yuze in ancient times. Located in Dali City, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, Jiangjun Lake covers an area of about 246 square kilometers and has a storage capacity of about 2.95 billion cubic meters. It starts from the southern tip of Eryuan County in the north and reaches Xiaguan in Dali City in the south, with a length of 40 kilometers from north to south. It is the second largest lake in Yunnan after Dianchi Lake. Erhai Lake was formed at the end of the Ice Age, and its main reason was settlement and erosion. It belongs to plateau tectonic rift lake, with an altitude of1972m.

Erhai Lake belongs to the Lancang River Basin and is the upstream source of Xi River, a tributary of Yangbi River. This lake flows from Xi 'er River to Xiaguan, Dali, and flows westward into Yangbi River. Erhai Lake has seven functions: water supply, agricultural irrigation, power generation, climate regulation, fishery, shipping and tourism. Cangshan is like a screen in the west of Erhai Lake and faces Yushan in the east, with a beautiful space environment.
