Salt Lake is located in Alahak Township, Altay City, and its specific formation time is unknown. The lake is about 3600 mu, with an irregular oval shape, slightly longer from east to west and slightly narrower from north to south. Lake water mainly comes from underground, followed by snowmelt water in surrounding areas. In summer, the average depth of the lake is 50-200 cm. In the autumn salt mining season (15- 1 15), the lake basically dried up. Lake water contains many minerals such as iron, sodium, potassium, silicon, calcium, copper, carbonate, silicate, fluorine and bromide 10. Alahak Salt Lake has the function of floating. According to the research, salt water floating is another physiological therapy after traditional acupuncture and yoga. It can relax body and mind, quickly eliminate fatigue, and has obvious health care functions such as sedation, blood lipid reduction and weight loss. American scientists say that floating for one hour is equivalent to four hours of deep sleep, and it can also reduce the tension of body and mind. Anyone who floats frequently will reduce the amount of cigarettes and alcohol consumption by 45% every day.
