Tips

culture
滨湖区 of Wuxi wraps around the northern shore of 太湖, China's third-largest freshwater lake. It contains 鼋头渚, traditionally considered the best cherry-blossom viewing spot outside Japan, and 灵山大佛, an 88-meter bronze Buddha. Hefei also has a 滨湖新区 on Chaohu Lake.
memory
滨 = shore/coast (see also 海滨 'seaside', 哈尔滨 'Harbin'). 滨湖 literally 'lake shore' - many lakeside districts across China share this name.
