Gazing across Kuilei Lake, can you imagine it teeming with the famed Shanghai hairy crab? Here in Kunshan City, Jiangsu province, Kuilei Lake stretches across nearly seven square kilometers. Kuilei Lake isn’t just a beautiful sight. It’s the lifeblood of Kunshan, serving as the city’s sole source of drinking water. This vital role led to its inclusion in Jiangsu Province’s protected lakes list in 2005. The lake is a haven for the Chinese mitten crab, better known as the Shanghai hairy crab. These crustaceans are a delicacy, prized for their rich, sweet flavor. Picture bustling markets overflowing with these crabs, a testament to Kuilei Lake’s bounty. So, as you admire Kuilei Lake, remember it’s more than just a scenic expanse of water. It’s a vital resource, a protected ecosystem, and a source of culinary delight.
