Sailimu Lake Tourism Experience

Sailimu Lake is located in the west of Yining City in the west of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. It is located in the alpine basin in the western section of Tianshan Mountain. It is the highest altitude and the largest alpine cold water lake in Xinjiang. Sailimu Lake is a plateau lake with an altitude of 2073 meters. It is about 30 kilometers long from east to west, 25 kilometers wide from north to south and 90 kilometers in circumference. The whole lake is oval.

Sailimu Lake, as the highest altitude and largest alpine cold water lake in Xinjiang, is not as famous as Kanas Scenic Area, but it is worth a visit because there are relatively few tourists and the natural vegetation is well protected. Needless to say, the water in Sailimu Lake itself is clear and beautiful, not to mention that summer has gone. The grassland near the lake is full of flowers, cattle and sheep are everywhere, and yurts smoke from the kitchen, showing a picture of the most authentic scenery of Xinjiang Plateau Lake. Sailimu Lake is not far from Horgos Port, and you can also drive from Sailimu Lake to this important port of China and Kazakhstan. There is a feeling of coming to the seaside by Sailimu Lake. The color is more beautiful and purer than the sea, but the sea is dynamic and Sailimu Lake is calm, but it is this tranquility that is more precious to people from the city. Living by Sailimu Lake, enjoying the sunrise and sunset, and observing the light changes of Sailimu Lake, a big glass-transparent lake, is a kind of enjoyment in itself. If you have the chance to catch up with the Nadam convention next time, it should be more exciting.
