Jingpo Hu (Mirror Lake)

Harbin, China

The Jingpo Lake (Jingbo Lake) is located in the Heilongjiang Province of China. It is a very scenic area full of natural beauty. Legend says that the lake was formed when the mirror of a fairy fell onto the Earth. It is shaped more like a flowing river rather than a land-locked lake and looks like it is made from jade. The most picturesque site here is the Diaoshuilou Waterfalls. It is famous for the exhibition-jump-stunt that is done by Di Huanran, a local man for the benefit of visitors. He jumps from the 40 meters wide waterfall to a depth of 20 meters and then climbs the sheer volcanic rocks on the cliff face with the bare hands.
