No matter at Mirror Sea(Jinghai) or Xiniu Hai, see the reflections before 8:30. If you missed these hours, then it would start blowing so that the surface of the lake would be ruffled, not mirroring anything. However, our tourist guide told us that the lake surface could be extremely flat and bright after a heaven rain.
