Snow-capped mountains, grasslands, flower fields, and the azure lake surface create a stunning panorama. In 2026, the scenic area will implement a year-round open policy, extending daily operating hours to 8:00-23:00, allowing visitors to freely choose between watching the sunrise over the lake amidst morning mist or witnessing the majestic scene of golden sunset rays bathing the snow-capped mountains in the evening.
