Yamdrok Lake in Autumn

The autumn sunlight is gentle, shining on the lake surface, and Yamdrok Lake displays a rich range of blue-green tones—from deep sapphire blue to clear turquoise, even shimmering with golden hues under certain light, like a huge natural gemstone. The lake is as calm as a mirror, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, and distant mountains, creating a stunning "sky and water as one" scene. The surrounding mountains don their autumn attire, with vegetation on the slopes turning from green to yellow, orange, and red, colorful and vibrant, forming a strong visual contrast with the deep blue lake water. Under the slanting sunlight, the mountain contours are distinct, with interlacing light and shadow, full of three-dimensionality.
