Tianchi Scenic Area in Tianshan Mountain, Xinjiang is centered on Tianchi Lake, including four complete vertical mountain natural landscape zones above and below Tianchi Lake, with a total area of 380.69 square kilometers. Tianchi is half-moon-shaped, with a length of 3,400 meters, its widest point is about 1500 meters, its area is 4.9 square kilometers, and its deepest point is about 1005 meters. The lake is clear and crystal clear as jade. Surrounded by mountains, green grass and wild flowers, it has the reputation of "the Pearl of Tianshan Mountain". The tall and green spruce and tassel pine cover the mountains and rivers, covering the sky. Tianchi Nature Reserve can be divided into "North Slope of the Great Tianchi Lake", "Great Tianchi Lake", "Sam like a hundred thousand arhats", "Niangniang Temple" and "North Slope of Bogda Peak", with eight views in each area and forty views in five areas.
The lake is a collection of melting snow in the mountains, with a water depth of nearly 100 meters, which is pure and pleasant. Every summer, the lake is full of green grass, birds and flowers, and the most beautiful. Even in midsummer, the temperature of the lake is quite low. Sitting on a yacht, blowing a cool breeze and sailing on the lake is a good place for summer vacation.
Southeast of Tianchi is the majestic Bogda main peak (Mongolian "Bogda", meaning Lingshan and Shengshan), with an altitude of 5445 meters. There are two peaks connected around the main peak. Looking into the distance, the three peaks stand side by side, suddenly inserting clouds, just like a pen. The glacier snow on the summit, shining with white silver light, contrasts with the clear Tianchi Lake, forming a graceful natural landscape of alpine Pinghu.
On the hillside around Tianchi, there are many spruce forests, which are pagoda-shaped famous landscape trees. Dark green spruce forest is tall and straight, neat and magnificent, showing the unique scenery of alpine scenic spots. The clear lake, snow-capped peaks and lush pine forests constitute the charming scenery of Tianchi.
Tianchi Natural Scenic Area is a famous summer resort in China, featuring alpine lakes, spruce forests and snow-capped mountains. 1982165438+10 was approved by the State Council as the first batch of national key scenic spots. The Bogda Man and Biosphere Reserve, established by the United Nations on 1990, included Tianshan Tianchi Scenic Area in the scope of the reserve.
You can go to Tianchi by bus from Urumqi. When going up the mountain, the mountain road twists and turns, accompanied by a swift stream, which is the water of Tianchi. The clean stream hits the rocks, arousing snow-white spray, which makes people feel a fresh breath.
Tianchi has four distinct seasons and beautiful scenery. Throughout the ages, literati and poets have been highly praised for their poems and poems. According to legend, more than 3,000 years ago, Mu sang a song with the Queen Mother of the West on the bank of Tianchi Lake, leaving a beautiful story and winning the reputation of "Yaochi" for Tianchi Lake. In the early 1970s, Guo Moruo accompanied Prince Sihanouk on a visit, and he sang a beautiful chapter of "A pool of thick ink sinks to the bottom of the inkstone, and all trees grow to the end". Tiewa Temple and Niangniang Temple were built around Tianchi in Qing Dynasty, but they are all gone now. Niangniang Temple was later restored by donations for the use of pilgrims. There are eight landscapes around Tianchi: Shimen Line, Longtan Blue Moon, Tiansanshi, Haizhong Needle, Nanshan Snow, Xishan Xiansong, Haifeng Exhibition and Hanging Spring Waterfall. It attracts a large number of Chinese and foreign tourists every year. In winter, Tianchi, covered with snow and ice, is a rare alpine skating rink in China.
