Balikun Lake consists of two lakes-the east lake and the west lake. The surface of the east lake is always rippled by cool breezes, while the water in west lake is clear and clean. There are some romantic legends about the lake. It is romantic to sit on the beach, enjoying the cool breeze and thinking about the beautiful stories.
