I am at Sayram Lake, enjoying the fresh air!

I have thought of countless words to describe Sayram Lake, but I found that none of them are as good as taking you to see it with your own eyes! The encounter between the Atlantic sea breeze and the Tianshan Mountains has opened the gates of heaven on this mountaintop lake 🌊. In the wind, there is the scent of blue sky and white clouds, the smell of cow, sheep, and horse manure, but no 'class smell'. The biggest surprise for me was my incredible luck ☞: It didn't rain in the afternoon, and I even saw a rainbow cloud 🌈! At sunset, I had a close encounter with a family of five swans 🦢 by the lake. I also discovered a 'Bird Island' full of birds, where seagulls, wild ducks, ruddy shelducks, bar-headed geese, and demoiselle cranes gathered together! Each species crowded together. This is probably the most charming aspect of Sayram Lake. 🌟 【TIPS】 ✅ Go early, it takes about an hour to queue up to enter by car; ✅ It's recommended to go counterclockwise, although there are many cars, there are even more going clockwise; ✅ If you go counterclockwise, manage your time well, otherwise, you won't have time to climb Pine Tree Head in the evening; ✅ Besides Pine Tree Head, the Guozigou Waterfall outside the scenic area is also a good place to see the Guozigou Bridge; ✅ Drones can fly up to 1000 meters within the scenic area, which is quite thrilling~ ✅ Plan to go again in winter to see if I can take some swan photos 🦢. 🌟 PS: Keep a distance when photographing birds, use a telephoto lens if possible, and try not to disturb them!
