Recently, with the gradual decrease of temperature, most migratory birds have migrated. But there are still herons and other waterfowl near Shahe Reservoir and Shahemen, and they don't want to leave here.

A variety of plant systems not only meet the diverse ornamental needs of citizens, but also attract a variety of animals and plants to inhabit the park. Many additional ecological islands in the park have created one.

There used to be a road around the lake in Longtan West Lake Park, which was about one kilometer long and varied in width. Due to the terrain, the roads are uneven, which brings a lot of inconvenience to tourists. This upgrade will build Yuanshan Park Trail into two loops, namely, the pedestrian loop around the lake and the seaside popular science loop.

During the reconstruction, the original main road around the lake was retained and updated to a red asphalt pavement with a width of 3 meters, which improved the comfort of tourists walking and jogging, and combined with the fitness facilities on both sides, a characteristic walking ring was formed.

In order to facilitate visitors to get close to plants and watch birds, a pro-Shui Mu plank road with a length of188m was built on the basis of the original hydrophilic trail. Relying on the lake, science popularization billboards reflecting various animals and plants were set up, and a 660-meter waterfront science popularization ring was formed along the lake, which became the highlight of the natural ecological science popularization tour in the whole park.

At the same time, the upgrading of the park also pays attention to humanized design, with facilities such as children's play bunkers, elderly arcades and barrier-free ramps. Meet the needs of different users and reflect the characteristics of the elderly-friendly park. With the restoration of Longtan West Lake Park, the three parks running through Longtan Three Lakes are all open with their own characteristics.
