CHINA-DAY4--NORTH XINJIANG---BUERJIN TO KANAS LAKE

 

22 Sep 2014

Buerjin to Kanas Lake


The bus journey from Buerjin to Kanas took us 3 hours, but we travelled through some breathtaking scenery, passing through grasslands to high mountains. For the long journey from Urumqi, it was worth it.


Viewed from the bus:




















Kanas Lake is located in a valley in the Altai Mountains borders to the north by Russia, east by Mongolia and the west by Kazakhstan. Tourists are all bussed to Kanas Scenic Area to see this beautiful lake, which contain a crescent moon bay, a lying dragon shaped bay and a fairy bay always embraced by mist. Because of the alpine forests and the hills, this place is sometimes referred to as the Switzerland of the East.

















The crystal clear water originates from glacier.












 

Seasonal changes and weather conditions give the lake and surrounding constantly changing appearance. We saw the autumn colour of green and yellow and the water rich turquoise colour.













This lake is bless with untouched natural beauty
