Sayram Lake in winter is breathtakingly beautiful.

Destination introduction: Sayram Lake, known as the "last tear of the Atlantic Ocean," is the highest and largest alpine cold water lake in Xinjiang.

Itinerary: • D1: Arrive at Sayram Lake - From Urumqi, you can take a high-speed train to Bortala, then transfer to a bus to Sayram Lake, or choose to charter a car from Yining. • D2: Tour around the lake - The tour around the lake is about 90 kilometers, you can choose to rent a car or a shuttle bus, and in winter you can experience the unique feeling of walking on the ice. Accommodation suggestions: • There are accommodation facilities in the Sayram Lake Scenic Area, and it is recommended to stay overnight in the scenic area to enjoy the sunset and starry sky. Dining suggestions: • Due to the lack of dining facilities around Sayram Lake, it is recommended to bring some dry food and water. Photography suggestions: • Golden Flower Purple Flower: This is an excellent place to watch the sunset and swans, and also the best place to see flowers. • Pine Tree Head: Climb to the top of the mountain to see the Guozigou Bridge and the surrounding valley landscape, which is a must-see. • Waterside Beach: Get up close and personal with the swans and experience the beauty of living in harmony with nature. Notes: • Keep warm: The temperature is extremely low in winter, so you must wear enough warm clothes, such as down jackets and thermal underwear. • Safety: Be careful when walking on the ice, although the ice is thick, you still need to pay attention to safety. • Sun protection: Even in winter, the UV rays are still strong, so you need to take sun protection measures. • Moisturizing: The climate is dry, so you need to bring moisturizing creams and other skin care products. Winter in Sayram Lake is a frozen fairy tale world, with natural wonders such as ice bubbles and blue ice that make you feel like you are on another planet.
