The Origin of the Name of Menghai Park in Handan City

The barren land in the north of this city, which is about to become a "sea of dreams", was originally a flood storage and detention area in Handan City. Flood storage and detention area is a simple drainage water body, which can hold floods, and will dry up without floods. After the flood storage and detention area is converted into an urban reservoir, there will be water all the year round, and the storage capacity can be vacated during the flood season. Its water surface accounts for half of the total area of 5 square kilometers in the scenic spot, and it will become the lung of the city to adjust the urban climate and improve the regional ecology.

As an ecological park, Menghai Park emphasizes the combination of natural environment and history and culture. Handan is rich in historical and cultural heritage, and the comparison with Lv Xian Temple of Huangliangmeng provides a basis for the planning of Handan. The concept of Menghai Park Scenic Area perfectly embodies the artistic conception of "Menghai Peng Ying, Living in the Yinghu Lake of the World". The "Sea of Dreams" was born.

According to historical records in Handan, "my hometown has been hit by disasters and has become a Zeguo". The natural disasters in Handan history are mainly floods. After being regulated by Qicunba, the flood of Qinhe River (above Qicunba) merges with the flood of Yuanyuan River along the spillway and enters Huangliangmeng flood detention area from Wuyuan River.
