Chaiwopu Lake

Chaiwopu Lake is a freshwater lake located in Dabancheng District, some 45 km southeast of Ürümqi, in Xinjiang, China. The lake receives (at least theoretically) water from several streams from the Bogda Shan range. The lake is almost round, some 5–6 km in diameter, which makes it the largest freshwater lake in the Ürümqi region. Chaiwopu Township, Chaiwopu Railway Station on the Lanxin Railway, and China National Highway 312 are located near the northern and northeastern shore of the lake.

Located at 43.5, 87.9167 (Lat. / Lng.), about 3 miles away.
