Boasting ties to the mythical Queen Mother of the West, Xinjiang's Tianchi Lake is more than a body of water – it is the embodiment of mother nature's spirit. The beauty spot is known for its alpine setting within the Tianshan Mountains of Xinjiang and the "Feilai Pavilion," a vantage point to the snow-capped summit of Bogda Peak perched on the mountainside along the eastern shore of the lake. The pavilion's elegantly upturned eaves give the impression that it has alighted from the skies, and with the gentle lake breeze brushing against one's cheek, the scene is enough to heal any weary soul.
