When planning your tour to Xinjiang, China, Kanas Lake is definitely an area cannot be missed. Situated in northern Burqin County, Altay region, it is a famous freshwater lake in the Altai Mountains.

Look at the mist, does it indicate the appearance of the Kanas Lake monster, the Big Red Fish? |
Unimaginable complicated orgnization of colours |
Autumn scene? |
Another mist |
Birches? Maybe |
It seems that the sky and the lake are linked together |
What are the two horses talking about? Go swimming in the lake? |
A real view or a Chinese painting, so quiet |
How free they are |
So clever to bring a tent and spend a night beside the lake, maybe you are lucky enough to witness the Big Red Fish by your own eyes. |
Stone? distinctive |
A group of camels, where are they heading for? |
Colourful pool |
