Sayram Lake
Sairam Lake, also known as Santai Haizi or historically the "Clean Sea", is an endorheic freshwater lake in the northern Tianshan Mountains at Börtala Mongol Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, China, less than 50 km from the border with Kazakhstan. The name Sayram originally derives from Kazakh, meaning "blessing". The lake is the largest and also the highest alpine lake in Xinjiang, largely filled by glacial meltwater, residual precipitation from the Eurasian westerlies and runoffs from the surrounding mountain chains, as well as some groundwater springing and seepage.
