Description
The two lakes are divided by a tree-lined walkway with a bridge at the north end. The north end of the bridge, where it meets the northern boundary, East Lake Road, is considered to be the north gate of People's Park. The eastern boundary of the lakes is Bo'ai South Road, the main northbound entry into the Bo'ai Road area. The eastern lake, the bigger of the two, has a peninsula connecting to the land on the north side. It occupies a large part of the eastern lake. The southern end of this peninsula connects to the south shore with a footbridge. For at least ten years prior to 2018, this peninsula was essentially a city rubbish depot and mostly unused building. The western lake narrows at its western end, goes under a small footbridge, and then connects to one of Haikou's many drainage canals, eventually discharging into a lagoon at the east side of Evergreen Park, then into Haikou Bay.Renovation
