Hidden Gem in Hami: The Colorful Lake, a Pink Dream World

Hidden Gem in Hami: The Colorful Lake, a Pink Dream World 🎈The Colorful Lake in Hami, Xinjiang is super beautiful😍! No entrance fee👏. If you depart from Hami Bus Station, you can go to Yiwu County first, and then to Yanchi Town🚌. From Yanchi Town to the Colorful Lake, you can find a car at the bus station where you get off, and the price is CNY 10–30/person. It's actually less than 10 km, and a taxi ride costs only a dozen yuan💰. Remember to get the driver's phone number, and call the driver to pick you up when you go back😉. Accommodation in Yanchi Town costs CNY 100–150, but I suggest staying in Yiwu County, which is more convenient to visit other scenic spots🤗. It's more convenient to drive to the Colorful Lake, as it is not a very well-developed scenic spot, but it is a pink lake featured in the Chinese National Geography magazine💖. If you don't drive or take a bus, you can find a 1-day tour on various platforms, departing directly from Hami to the Colorful Lake and other places nearby, for a price of CNY 300+😎. September to October is the pinkest time🌸. The lake is currently blue and pink, and it will be pinker in good weather, but in bad weather, you may only see a blue and white lake😜. Don't go before June, as it is just an ordinary white salt lake before June, and it will slowly change color after June when it gets hot⚠. Next to the lake is a salt marsh and wetland, with a large heart-shaped wooden walkway and a viewing platform👀. There are mountains in the distance, and people often graze here. Someone may ask you if you want to ride a horse. There are not many tourists here, and the horses are more energetic and can run🐎. The lake is really pink now, so don't miss it💗! You can get there by navigating to the Colorful Lake, which is a free scenic spot. The pictures I posted are all original📷.
