The Xin'an River basin in Jiande is winding, whose upper reaches connecting Qiandao Lake and lower reaches connecting Qiantang River. It flows from west to east, but when flowing through the Zhijiang Village area, two 180-degree turns appear. As a result, this section of the river comes about into the west, making Zhijiang Village on the bank a peninsula.
This section of the river not only retains the characteristics of the "four uniquenesses" in the upper reaches, but also is the widest and most changing section of the river. Besides, it passes through the unique wetland block of Xiayabu where birds are flying leisurely over the water, making the place extraordinarily beautiful. During the daytime, it boasts of intoxicating scenery, while at night, the stars shine brightly in the sky, making it a favorite of photographers and camping enthusiasts.
