Xin Jiang

Yes, this is the another relaxing travel. This time, I choose XinJiang as my another destination.

Xinjiang , officially Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, is an autonomous region of the People's Republic of China in the northwest of the country. It is the largest Chinese administrative division and borders Russia,Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India. It has abundant oil reserves and is China's largest natural gas-producing region.
Xinjiang is divided into the Dzungarian Basin in the north and the Tarim Basin in the south by a mountain range. Only about 4.3% of Xinjiang's land area is fit for human habitation.


Very strange right? This is the sight from the aeroplane and can see that north side of XinJiang is cover by cloud but South side is totally no cloud at all. Because of this climate, therefor, there are Oasis in the north side while desolate desert in the south side of XinJiang.


This is the snowy mountain in XinJiang.
This is my first time to see such a landscape!



Please believe your eyes. Photos below are not a painting, they are real landscape of XinJiang!
I also cannot believe my eyes when I step into those place, However, it is real!
This place call Sailimu Lake.
Sailimu Lake located in the territory of Xinjiang Bole, its elevation of 2073 meters east to west about 30 km, 25 km north-south width, perimeter 90 kilometers of water area 455 to 460 square kilometers, maximum depth of 92 m, total 21 billion cubic meters water, It is the highest and largest alpine lake water. 
 Because the location is higher, the amount of evaporation is larger, the water salinity is 3 g / l and slightly salty. 
Besides that, Sailimu Lake also know as the Atlantic last tear. 



So this is the another relax travel for me after Pelagie Island. I spent about 3 days in XinJiang.
From this trip, I found that there is still such a paradise in Asia.
