The photo, taken on August 3, shows a picturesque landscape composed of lush mountains and lucid waters at the Jinling Reservoir in Xintian County. In recent years, the county has given priority to ecological protection and green development. It designated river, reservoir, and lake chiefs, and carried out such eco-environment protection projects as closing hillsides to facilitate afforestation and banning fish farming in reservoirs. These measures would help build an eco-friendly, civilized, harmonious, and livable "place of happiness". (Photo/Liu Guixiong)
