On October 27, 2024, Paddy Field Wetland Marathon started from the Chengnan Park in Sihong County. Over 10,000 runners from across China participated in the marathon. The design of the route is well-thought to showcase the rural and pastoral characteristics of Sihong, a place known for its big lakes and wetlands. To complete the match, runners will pass through scenic spots such as Lihewa Scenic Belt, Liushan Lake Scenic Area, Guxu Water Street, and Hongze Lake Wetland Park, fully immersing in the beautiful scenery of Sihong.  Photo by Xu Rui
