[2024 Bole Stay] Travel Guide for Sayram Lake Chaoke Glamping (Updated Oct)
Sailimu Lake in autumn is quiet and beautiful, and there are fewer tourists.
Sailimu Lake in autumn is quiet and deep. Its beauty is like the mellow wine deposited over the years, which is intoxicating. The seagulls hovering in the sky and the swans in the lake are leisurely and content, attracting tourists to stop and take photos.
The only downside is that it's only available in autumn! There are few tourists in the off-season, and the experience is full.
✅Lake tour
Self-driving is a better experience, you can stop at any time, 143r/person. It takes a day or most of the day to go around the lake for 90 kilometers, and you can play clockwise around the lake.
📝Note tips:
The wind in Sailimu Lake is quite strong, so it is necessary to have a windproof, warm and comfortable coat. It is best to wear outdoor clothes that can be worn in layers, which is convenient to wear and take off when it is cold and warm.
✅The grass turns yellow in autumn, and the photos are also very exciting.
Swans are here on the wooden plank road, you can see them on the side of the road, you can get off to take pictures, there is a parking lot on the side of the road. The blue lake, beautiful white swans, distant snow-capped mountains, and nearby withered grass are also full of atmosphere~
👍There is also a tent coffee shop here, the scenery is more beautiful.
✅🚤Continue to go forward and you can take a boat to visit the lake, which is a different experience. The photos on the boat are also beautiful.
✅After the boat ride, I came to the West Sea of Sailimu Lake. There is a rest area here where you can solve the urgency.
🌇The most important thing is that the sunset here is beautiful. There is a large stone on the side of the lake that goes deep into the lake. Many people rush to take pictures. Standing up and taking pictures can give a sense of deja vu.
🏨Stay at the Chaoke Starry Sky Camp near the east gate at night. You can see the starry sky here, and the sunrise in the morning is beautiful. Although the price is expensive, it is worth it. It is really beautiful and comfortable to live in.
There is floor heating in autumn and winter, which is very warm. The rectangular space capsule is very large, with two rooms, one double room and one standard room, a separate bathroom, hot water, floor heating, and air conditioning.
Standing outside the camp, you can see the snow-capped mountains, lakes, and golden grass in autumn.
🍲The camp has a free breakfast, and the service is also very enthusiastic. The waiter will pull the guests and luggage to the residence by a small car.
Location: Near the east gate of Sailimu Lake, it will arrive in more than ten minutes by car. The price is over a thousand yuan.

After the Pacific Ocean cried, it left the most beautiful tear!
Self-driving tour to Sayram Lake, Guozigou Bridge, from Guozigou to Sayram Lake, these sceneries are all free. We are setting off today, and I have to say, I'm a bit reluctant to leave. This campsite has trees for shade, charging facilities, tap water, and free showers. Today we are heading to Wenquan County in Xinjiang, passing by Guozigou Bridge and Sayram Lake. On this route, all the beautiful sceneries are free, including the Guosai Scenic Area coming from the Yini direction of Sayram Lake. First, we will go to Guozigou Bridge. Behind me is the most luxurious bridge in China, the Guozigou Bridge, which cost 2.39 billion yuan. If you come here, make sure to navigate to the Guozitou Viewing Platform Resort. From there, you can see Viewing Platforms 1, 2, 3, and 4. I am currently at Viewing Platform 4, and over there is Viewing Platform 5. There is a popular stone here, but you have to queue up. Look at the number of people! I am now heading to the east gate of Sayram Lake. You can get a pass there and then walk through Sayram Lake to Wenquan County. This way, you don't need to buy a ticket. This is the last tear of the Atlantic Ocean. The water of Sayram Lake is so clear. Actually, driving around the lake is very nice. Seeing the scenery of this lake, I think the views from all directions are pretty much the same. We just entered from the east gate, and it's about 20 kilometers to the north gate. We just came out from the north gate, and it's 50 kilometers to Wenquan County. This time, we still haven't had enough fun.
