Hundred-Year Pond Introduction
The "ponds" played an important role in the history of reclamation in Sanwan. Due to the topography, the irrigation water sources here are at the end and cannot maintain a fixed water level; therefore, many ponds were excavated for agricultural cultivation. After the construction of the Yonghe Mountain Reservoir, the significance of these ponds diminished. Coupled with the reduction of agriculture over time, these ponds gradually disappeared. In recent years, in order to preserve this important landscape feature, the residents of Beipu Village have created a recreational agricultural tourism site based on the cultural characteristics of the ponds. Among them, the "Sanlian Pond" is the most extensive, formed by the connection of Guanyin Pond, Liwu Pond, and Dahuangpu Pond, with a history of over a hundred years. The restoration of the pond landscape not only enhances the appearance of Beipu Village but also includes the addition of recreational walking paths and bicycle paths nearby. Events are also planned to attract tourists to experience recreational agriculture and enjoy the rural scenery of the water community.
