The snow-kissed shores of Sayram Lake are a magnet for visitors! The lake's brilliant blue waters create a vibrant scene under a clear autumn sky. Located in Bortala, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Sayram Lake is nicknamed the "last tear of the Atlantic" as it's the furthest place you can feel the warm air current of the Atlantic Ocean.
