　　Introduction to Kanas Lake:

　　Kanas Lake (Kanas Lake): National AAAAA scenic area, National Geological Park, National Forest Park, Chinese Nature Reserve, National Natural Heritage, National Low-carbon Tourism Experimental Zone, China’s Most Beautiful Lake. Kanas Lake, with towering snow-capped peaks and dark green forests, boasts breathtaking lake and mountain scenery and is praised as a "fairyland on earth, the garden of gods".

　　"Kanas" is a Mongolian term meaning "beautiful and mysterious lake". Kanas Lake is located in the north of Burqin County, Altay Prefecture, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. The lake water comes from glacier meltwater from mountains such as Kuitun and Friendship Peak, as well as local precipitation. The lake surface is at an altitude of 1,374 meters, with an area of 45.73 square kilometers. The maximum depth of the lake is 188.5 meters at an elevation of 1,181.5 meters, and its water storage capacity reaches 5.38 billion cubic meters. It is China’s deepest moraine dammed lake, a high-mountain lake and inland freshwater lake nestled in the deep mountains and dense forests of Altay.

　　The Kanas Lake scenic area integrates spectacular natural landscapes such as mountains, rivers, forests, lakes, and grasslands; historical and cultural relics such as the platform for rallying troops of Genghis Khan’s western expeditionary force and ancient rock paintings; and the Mongolian Tuwa people. It has main attractions such as Camel’s Hump Bay, Color-changing Lake, Dragon’s Bend, and Fish-watching Tower, and has extremely high values for tourism, nature conservation, scientific research, and history and culture.

　　Kanas Lake has several wonders. One is the kilometer-long deadwood dike, formed by floating wood in the lake being blown upstream by strong valley winds and piled up at the upstream end of the lake. The second is the giant ‘water monster’ in the lake, which often drags horses drinking water by the lake into the water, adding a few mysterious elements to Kanas. Some people also believe it is caused by a local specialty, the large red fish (Hucho taimen). The third wonder is the Kanas sea of clouds and Buddha’s light, which can only be seen after the rain clears up.
