The lake was originally named as Jhongjun Pi or Minong Lake. In 1956, the lake was renamed to Zhongzheng Lake since the visit of Chiang Kai-shek, and in August 2016, the lake was renamed to Meinong Lake.[1]
Covers an area of 21 hectares (52 acres), it is the second largest artificial lake in Kaohsiung after Chengcing Lake.[2] It has a capacity to store water for irrigation of over 130 hectares (320 acres) of farmland. It also serves as a fishery. The lake is surrounded by mountain to the west and fields on the other three sides. The lake features trails alongside the lake for cycling or jogging.[1]
