Ever dreamed of a dreamy alpine lake surrounded by snow-capped peaks? 🌄 Welcome to Lake Tianchi in the Tianshan Mountains of the Chinese mainland, right in the heart of the Xinjiang region. It’s like stepping into a Pixar landscape! 🎬
To celebrate the region’s rich tapestry, CGTN reporters suited up in vibrant traditional Xinjiang attire—complete with hand-embroidered vests and colorful headscarves—and greeted visitors in six languages: Mandarin, English, Uygur, Kazakh, Arabic, and Russian. 🌍✨
Why six languages? Xinjiang is home to a lively mix of communities, where centuries of cultural exchange have crafted a truly global vibe. From Uygur folk melodies to Kazakh horse games, every corner pulses with stories waiting to be discovered. 📜🐎
Planning your next adventure? Pack casual layers (it can get chilly near the lake), brush up on a greeting or two in Uygur—like 'ياخشىمۇسىز' (Yaxshimusiz) for 'hello'—and get ready to make memories under the Tianshan sky. ✈️🎒
Lake Tianchi’s turquoise waters and cultural welcome make it a must-see for travelers, content creators, and anyone curious about Asia’s hidden gems. Ready to say hello in six languages? 😉
