Snow-capped mountains, glaciers, the dreamy Karakul Lake

Passing by Karakul Lake and Mount Muztagh on the way from Baisa Lake to Taxkorgan, the Muztagh Glacier Park is still under construction. You can take a detour and drive in because it was too late, we didn't go further. When we returned, the gate was already closed. Next time, when it officially opens, I must come and have a proper visit. It's a pity that I didn't get to the Muztagh Glacier, but the clear sky on the return trip and the beauty of Karakul Lake really broke my heart. Sharing a few photography spots: 1. On National Highway 314 from Taxkorgan to Baisa Lake, after passing the Tashkurgan Wetland Park viewing platform but before reaching Tashkurgan Township, there is a small path that leads off the highway. Navigate to Mayierjiang Pastoral Happy Home in Tashkurgan County, Tashkurgan Township. The country stone road leads to a spectacular view of Mount Muztagh in the distance. 2. The southwest corner of Karakul Lake, that short stretch of road is along the lake, and the aerial view from here is amazing. 3. Karakul Lake Scenic Area is a paid attraction, with an entrance fee of 45, but it's definitely worth a visit. There is a monument of Karakul Lake. You can walk to the lakeside and see a whole, intact lake and snow-capped mountains, which is a much better view than from the roadside. The wind is very strong by the snow-capped mountains and lakes, so be sure to keep warm~
