Bositeng Lake

Reviewed By Leslie S - Revelstoke BC

Bosten Lake is a good 2 hour drive from Korla but worth the trip, though you'll have to hire a driver. The motorboat ride is lovely--through reed-lined canals to an island. The meal prepared by locals is way too expensive so we didn't have it.

Tiemen Pass

Reviewed By TripAway7 - Dublin, Ireland

The gate has been rebuilt following destruction during the cultural revolution. The path continues for a short distance, but ultimately is covered by a Reservoir. The unsaved path however was more reminiscent of the original Silk Road than many other sites. Other reviewers appear to have climbed the nearby mountain to a lovers shrine. We would have liked to do this, but were short of time.

Peacock River

Reviewed By Perixte - Xi'an, Shaanxi, China

Running through the middle of Korla, the city has developed it well in recent years. Along the river are little play areas, a roped off swimming area (if you are brave enough to swim in 'dirty' water), and a fairly decent path for walking. Several coffee shops can be found too. (as of 2006)

Lotus Lake of Korla

Reviewed By 林美麗 - 台北

不知道因為甚麼原因,千里迢迢拉車到景區,去到蓮花湖才發現沒有蓮花,有的只是兩旁高高的蘆葦,搭著快艇前進蓮花湖,景色還是漂亮但是少了蓮花點綴讓我有點敗興而歸;
