Sayram Lake is perfect for photographers all the year-round. It is also the ideal place for young couples to spend their honeymoon; the lake is like a brilliant emerald inlaid in the basin surrounded by Tianshan Mountain. Flocks of ducks and swans coast on the lake surface, which formed a spectacular view.
