Kanas Lake, located in Burqin County, Altay Region, is a high-altitude lake with relatively high elevation and large area in Xinjiang. The lake water changes color with the seasons, presenting a transparent blue-green in summer and congealing into a jade-like ice surface in winter. The scenic area is divided into three core areas:
Kanas Lake Boat Tour:Take a sightseeing boat to closely observe the birthplace of the lake monster legend. The voyage lasts about 40 minutes, and the boat ticket is included in the scenic area combination ticket.
Three Bays Hiking:The morning mist at Fairy Bay, the S-shaped river bend at Crescent Moon Bay, and the vegetation reflections at Wolong Bay form a classic photography route. The wooden plank path is approximately 7 kilometers long, and it is recommended to allocate 3 hours for a leisurely stroll.
Guanyu Platform:At an elevation of 2,030 meters, the highest point can be reached by taking a shuttle bus or riding a horse. It offers a panoramic view of Kanas Lake, with particularly stunning light and shadows during sunset.
