Surrounded by rolling grasslands and snow-covered peaks, Sayram Lake is often called “the last tear of the Atlantic Ocean”, as it was formed by ancient glacial movements.

• Cycle around the lake for stunning 360-degree views of the pristine waters.
• Experience Kazakh nomadic culture, with the opportunity to stay in traditional yurts.
• Stop at Guozigou Bridge, an architectural marvel offering spectacular views of the valley.

Tip: The best months to visit are July and August, when the weather is warm and the pastures are lush.
