November 19: Today was a big gamble.

Sayram Lake, known as the "last tear of the Atlantic Ocean," is a high-altitude lake. What kind of charm does it have in winter? 🌟❄️ Winter Sayram Lake Scenic Spots • Blue Ice: In winter, the surface of Sayram Lake freezes over and becomes as transparent as glass. When the sun shines on it, it glows like a sapphire, creating a unique blue ice landscape. • Ice Bubbles: The methane released by the plants at the bottom of the lake forms ice bubbles, layer upon layer, as if the breath of the earth is gushing out from the bottom of the lake, giving Sayram Lake a spiritual aura. • Ice Push: At the beginning of the ice season, the water freezes into thin ice as it flows. As the water flows, the ice surface breaks, and the crystal-clear thin ice is pushed to the shore by the lake water, creating a spectacular ice push phenomenon. Travel Tips • Best Time to Visit: Winter at Sayram Lake begins in November and lasts until March of the following year. Each time period has its own characteristics. From late December to mid-January of the following year, the lake surface is almost completely frozen, making it the best time to see the unique ice and snow landscapes such as blue ice, ice push, ice flowers, and ice bubbles. • Recommended Routes: • Lake Route: Along the lake embankment, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains, including the Ten Mile Long Embankment and the S-bend road. • Point General's Platform: A great place to watch the sunrise, where the sun rises from behind the snow-capped mountains and illuminates the entire grassland. • Accommodation: There are many hotels and guesthouses around Sayram Lake, so you can choose according to your budget and preferences. There are fewer tourists in winter, so you can enjoy a quieter travel environment. • Special Activities: • Ice Entertainment: Have fun on the ice, which is several meters thick, and experience the thrill of driving on the ice. • Ice and Snow Experience Season: From thrilling go-karts and snowmobiles to unique snow mountain slides, and a close-up view of the winter fishing of the whitefish, there are a variety of entertainment activities. Tips • Clothing: The temperature is low in winter, so it is recommended to wear down jackets, cotton shoes, thick socks, scarves, hats, and gloves. Hand warmers are also a must. • Safety: Although the ice is thick, you should still be careful when moving on the ice and avoid areas where the ice is thinner.
