Its main parks, namely "World Scenery", "Splendid China", "Bibo Tourist Area" and "Bird Language Forest", cover an area of 3600 mu, and enjoy the reputation of "the first peasant Park in the world".

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Liugou River was controlled by sluice repair, and then the Huaihe River was washed down by a huge flood.

At the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, there were frequent wars, floods, no one visited Liugou River, and floods washed Liugou Town and Baique Temple. A great disaster fell on both sides of Liugou River.

In the Qing Dynasty, it was renamed Bali River.

In June 1938, the Kuomintang government created a dyke-breaking incident at the Garden Estuary of the Yellow River, which resulted in the South flooding of the Yellow River. The dyke-breaking of the Ying River entered the Bali River. The flooding caused disasters. The riverbed rose, the water surface widened, the good fields flooded, the houses collapsed, and the surrounding people fled to survive.

At the beginning of liberation in 1954, the Bali River was not transformed and utilized, and there was no flood in a hundred years. Ying and Huo counties in Chengze State met Ying and Huaihe rivers. Six lakes, Bali River, Daijia Lake, Qiujia Lake, Jiangjia Lake, Chengxi Lake and Tangduo Lake, converged and became oceans.

From the winter of 1954 to the spring of 1955, the government arranged for the displaced people to move northward to save themselves. In the autumn of 1955, the diversion works of the Huaihe River and Bali River began. The dyke along the North Bank of Huaibei River broke ground and started construction, closing the passage of Bali River into Huaihe River, opening the runoff of Bali River into Yinghe River, and building sluice gates for closure. The Bali River is a tributary of Chengying River.

In 1958, the Bali River set up a fishing ground, which did not put into operation and management on the surface of the Great Lakes and produced fish fry solely. During the three-year difficult period, the people on both sides of the Straits went down the river to touch cockroaches, fishing for water chestnuts, fishing for shrimps and mowing weeds to feed their hunger. The Bali River helped the people on both sides to tide over the difficulties.

In 1972, the Yingshang County Committee and the county government concentrated the fishermen of the whole county who had been wandering outside all the year round to settle down in the Bali River and set up a fishery commune to govern the Bali River.

In 1976, four pools, Shengtian pool, Chongtianwei pool, Youhu pool and Daoxiang pool, were successively developed to rebuild Xuqiao and Maqian bridges and to communicate the traffic between Bangang, Guantun and Yingcheng.

In 1978, fish larvae were released and lake management began on the surface of Bali River.

In 1982, the Central Fisheries Company, the Provincial Fisheries Company and the County Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Bureau jointly invested 193,000 yuan to establish the "State-owned Yingshang County Bali River Joint Fishing Ground" to complete the excavation of 1,500 Mu intensive fish pond in Shengtianwei.
