Located in Altay Prefecture of Xinjiang, Kanas Lake is hailed as a fairyland on earth and the jewel of the Altai Mountains. Formed by ancient glaciers, it is one of China's deepest glacial moraine lakes with a crescent shape.

The lake's water magically shifts hues with seasons, light and weather, presenting shades of emerald, turquoise and sapphire. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks, dense primeval forests and vast meadows, it boasts stunning layered scenery all year round. Autumn turns the woods into a sea of golden and crimson foliage, creating a breathtaking oil-painting landscape. Shrouded in legends of lake monsters and enriched with Tuva ethnic culture, Kanas Lake blends natural charm and mysterious folklore, making it Xinjiang's most mesmerizing alpine resort.
