  1. Kanas Lake 喀纳斯湖

Kanas Lake is the core essence of Kanas National Nature Reserve. The glaciers are strongly eroded, and the ice and stone surface blocks the valleys, forming the final surface ridges and lakes. The lake is 1375 meters above sea level. The lake is shaped like a crescent moon, with a length of 24.5 kilometers, an average width of 1.9 kilometers, an average water depth of 90 meters, a maximum depth of 188.4 meters, an area of ​​69,000 mu, and a water storage capacity of 4 billion cubic meters. It is one of the deep-water lakes in China. Around the lake is a green coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forest, which is connected with the vast mountain grassland.

2. Wolong Bay 卧龙湾

Wolong Bay is located on the way from Burqin County to Kanas, 140 kilometers away from the county seat and 10 kilometers away from Kanas. The lake is surrounded by dense forests, flowers and green grass, and the islands in the lake are beautiful. The boulders at the entrance of the lake reach the middle stream.

At the outlet of the lake, there is a wooden bridge flying from east to west. Standing on the bridge, to the north is a mirror-like Wolong Bay, and to the south is the roaring Kanas River. From Wolong Bay along the Kanas River for about 1 km, you will see a blue crescent-shaped lake bay in the canyon, that is Moon Ba

3. Hemu Grassland 禾木草原

The mountains around the basin are wide and thick, and the top is round. The rivers are mostly cut into canyons, and the terrain is complex. The Hemu River runs through it from northeast to southwest, dividing the grassland into two halves. The shady slopes are full of green grass, the flowers are blooming, the fragrance is overflowing, the bees are picking flowers and making nectar, the cattle and sheep are all over the mountains for food and fun, a charming vast grassland scenery.

4. Fish Viewing Platform 观鱼台

Guanyutai, with a round-trip shuttle bus of 20 yuan per person, is a must-see in Kanas. It was built in 1987 and was called Guanyutai after this reconstruction. Why is it called Guanyutai? I think there are three reasons.

First of all, those who call the pavilion must have the top pavilion larger than the bottom platform, and this reconstruction is precisely because the bottom platform is larger than the top pavilion, and the platform is larger than the pavilion. Of course, it should be called a platform.

In addition, the pavilion is suspected of being self-enclosed, and the station has the attitude of opening to the outside world, which is in line with the requirements of the progress of the times. Secondly, compared with the word pavilion, the homophony is too particular.

For ordinary people, the pavilion is stopped, and the platform is lifted. I spend money to travel, in order to seek happiness and auspiciousness, why should I stop and not lift? Who doesn’t want to make progress in life and achieve success in career after traveling back to Kanas?

Again, looking up at Guanyutai in the lake at the bottom of the mountain, it is just like an incense platform sitting on the west mountain. If there is a scene of clouds and mist in the sky or sunset glow, the incense table is filled with clouds and clouds, and the eyes are full of auspicious clouds and fairy spirits. These three are the reasons why bidders are better than bidders.

5. Taiga Corridor 泰加林廊道

The Taiga Forest Corridor is 4.5 kilometers long, which is concentrated in the essence of the taiga forest in Western Siberia. The corridor faces the sparkling Kanas Lake in the west and the towering mountains in the east. The Taiga Swamp, King of Taiga, Giant Root Carving Wall and many other attractions.
