The lake shore is mostly surrounded by fixed and semi-fixed sand dunes; the western shore is covered with reeds and swamps, and the lakeside is a lake plain; the northern shore has a silver beach about 10 kilometers long, suitable for water entertainment activities such as swimming, Surfing, skateboarding, and boating.

The scenery you see when you go boating on the lake is comparable to the "800-li Dongting Lake": calamus and reeds grow densely on the east coast and both sides of the estuary; the bird island in the lake is a "bird paradise" with seagulls spreading their wings, white swans and spotted cranes, and flocks of wild ducks in summer and autumn. Bird nests and eggs are everywhere on the island. Wherever people go, birds fly away in surprise, and the lake is full of vitality. Ulungur Lake is also rich in more than 10 kinds of fish, including carp, crucian carp, pine perch, red perch, and white pike.

98 yuan is a great deal, highly recommended, and it's right in the city center. The sunset is absolutely stunning, far more beautiful than any sunset at Baihaba. The concert after sunset features really good music. A great choice to come here after returning from Kanas. General Mountain, I feel like I owe you a skiing experience. Our short visit of just over an hour left me wanting more. This project is very well managed. If you need to take the train, don't wait until 9:30 PM to go down the mountain, as it will likely be crowded.

The changes of the sunset at Ulungur Lake in Altay in 30 minutes. This is a seaside sunset that belongs to Xinjiang alone. 🌇 A thick layer of ice has formed on the Ulungur Lake in winter. 🧊 The team leaders will wait at the best viewing point of Ulungur Lake according to the time. ❗Best sunset time: arrive around 17:00 and leave after 19:30.

It's a great place to drive up the mountain. The road is beautiful, and they're still working on a post station and hotel. The climb is easy, not very high, and there's only a lookout at the top. Admission is free.

The Altai Mountain Hot Spring Forest Park has a beautiful natural environment and infinitely beautiful original scenery. There are large birch forests and many hot springs in the scenic area. Although the transportation here is convenient, the communication is not very good, and there are not many tourists visiting here, so you can fully enjoy a good life.
