Ice flower landscape appears in Bosten Lake, the largest inland fresh water in China.

In recent days, with the continuous drop of temperature, the ice surface of Bosten Lake, the largest inland freshwater lake in China, is covered with a layer of hoarfrost that looks like beautiful flowers. Against the background of blue sky and white clouds, the ice surface is like a crystal-clear mirror, and clusters of ice flowers are crowded together, like ice lotus flowers blooming in the snow and ice, which has become a unique local landscape.

Frost flowers on the ice are shaped like white flowers, so this landscape is also called "frost flowers". The diameter of each "flower" is mostly between 3 cm and 10 cm. After the sun rises, these "flowers" gradually melt as the temperature rises. The blue sky and beautiful ice flowers, like the world of ice and snow depicted in fairy tales, attract tourists and photographers to watch the shooting.

Su, a tourist from Korla, said: "During the break, my friends and I came to Bosten Lake to enjoy the beautiful ice flowers on the lake. It's spectacular, as if we were back in the ice and snow. We also took a lot of photos and wanted to go back and share them with family and friends. "
