Angel's Tears~Sailimu Lake

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Sailimu Lake ~ "The poetry of the last tear under the Atlantic Ocean" Sailimu Lake is located on the north side of the Tianshan Mountains. It is the highest and largest cold water lake in Xinjiang! ! The ancient name of the lake is "Pure Sea" because the lake is so clear that the visibility can reach 12 meters deep, so it has this beautiful name! ! 📕Geography class time: Sailimu Lake is a "graben lake" formed by the Himalayan orogeny 70 million years ago. The water of Sailimu Lake comes from precipitation, "snowmelt from the Tianshan Mountains", and groundwater, but why the water in the lake has never decreased is still a mystery~ Due to its clear and blue scenery, it is also known as "the last tear of the Atlantic Ocean💧"~! 📝Mythology: Legend has it that it was formed by the tears of a pair of young lovers who died for love. It hangs like a dazzling sapphire in the fault basin between the western Tianshan Mountains, casting a mysterious veil over the beautiful Sailimu Lake. Therefore, it is also known as "Angel's Tears 💧"~~ ✨Must-see highlights: ~Clean and colorful sea~ Because the lake is extremely transparent and deep, a variety of colors are formed with the help of sunlight and the Tianshan Mountains. Blue, purple, cyan, green, orange, yellow, red and gray can be seen, forming a huge ink painting for this land! ! Very poetic❗️❗️ ~ Songtou Mist Waterfall~ Located at the southern end of the lake, the spruce trees on the continuous peaks are dense and tall; the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, the spruce forests nearby reach the lakeside, the mountains, forests, grasslands and lakes are integrated into one, the scenery is deep and quiet, standing in it, you are the owner of this wonderful scene~ ~Keshan Pine Viewing~ Known as one of the most magnificent views, you can see the spruce trees of "Kogurchin Mountain" in the distance. When the wind blows, the shadows of the trees sway, forming a green ocean. 📒Seasonal enjoyment ~Spring when the blue ice begins to melt~ During March and April every year, a large amount of ice is pushed to the shore, which is a good time to appreciate the melting ice. There are relatively few people in Sailimu Lake during this season, and you can also go to Yili Xinghuagou to enjoy the apricot blossoms! ! ~Summer with wild flowers in full bloom~ Every June, the flowers on the grassland are in full bloom. This season is the best for strolling among the flowers and swimming around the lake. ~Golden autumn~ In September every year, the green grass by the lake turns yellow. When the setting sun falls, the golden color and the quiet blue form a different harmonious picture, just like a poet wandering around the world, so free and happy~ ~Winter of blue ice bubbles~ From January to March every year, tourists can walk on the ice and take photos. Because the climate is dry and the ice surface is flat, you can see many lovely "little ice bubbles"❗️ 📍Address: Beside National Highway 30, Bole City, Bortala Mongol Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region 🕰️Opening hours: 09:00-21:00 🚴Transportation: 1.
