Kenswate Scenic Area, Shihezi, Xinjiang | A blue heart in the Tianshan Mountains.

| A blue heart in the Tianshan Mountains. This is a perfect combination of nature's craftsmanship and a fairyland on earth. 💧 Kenswate Lake is as blue as a sapphire, shimmering in the sunlight. The water is crystal clear, like a giant mirror reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, and surrounding mountains. 🏔️ The surrounding mountains are undulating, with rich and diverse vegetation, from green grasslands to dense forests to snow-capped peaks, with distinct layers and breathtaking beauty. 🌄 Here, you can enjoy the magnificent sunrise and sunset. When the sun rises or sets, the entire Kenswate is dyed golden, a breathtaking sight. 🚗 Whether you're on a road trip or hiking, Kenswate will surprise you. Stroll along the lake, feel the breeze, listen to the gentle lapping of the water, and all your worries will disappear. There is a Gobi Desert downstream of Kenswate where you can camp 🏕️, and if you drive up the mountain road, you can see the reservoir. There are many farmhouses opposite the reservoir where you can eat and stay. The scenic area is under development, and there will be other entertainment facilities such as a high-altitude swing 🪂 in the future. (On the way to Kenswate, there are vast grasslands where you can camp in spring and summer ⛺ and ski in winter 🛞) 👉 [Travel Tips] ✅ Popular coffee shop: The coffee shop is under construction and not open, but there is a temporary stall by the reservoir fence with seating. It's best to buy something so you can take photos with peace of mind. ✅ Kenswate sign: You can take a photo of the sign at the visitor center. ✅ Devil's swing: Very exciting. When you swing high, you can see the beautiful scenery of the entire reservoir, as if you're about to jump off (not recommended for those afraid of heights). ✅ High-altitude walkway: Walking in the air, as if you're in the clouds, but this thrilling feeling is really enjoyable. ✅ High-altitude cycling: Riding a bike in the air, focusing on the bike, actually reduces the tension. ✅ You can take photos of the reservoir and the distant Danxia landform, a truly beautiful combination. 📍 Kenswate Reservoir | A stunning blue.||| Kenswate Scenic Area is located 📍 in the middle reaches of the Manas River, 60 km north of Manas County.
