Encountered the legendary section of Baisha Lake Road near Kashgar in Taxian County, but missing the snow!

It takes 3 hours by car from Kashgar to reach the north shore of Baisha Lake. The highest point offers an excellent view, overlooking the entire lake and the Baisha Mountain opposite. The south shore requires an entrance fee and was not visited; the north shore offers a yak photo opportunity for 30 yuan per person. The lake itself is fairly ordinary, with the reflection of the white sand mountains being the biggest highlight, great for photos, but personally, I think the lake view is not as good as Zhaosu Yuhu. The much-discussed "road, lake, and snow-capped mountains in one frame" beautiful section of Baisha Lake that is popular online, we never found it until unexpectedly encountering it on the way back from Taxian to Kashgar. Every casual shot is wallpaper-worthy. This scenery is already stunning, but unfortunately, there was no snow. If it had snow-capped mountains, it would be truly legendary!
