Beach resort in the middle of the Xinjiang desert, the farthest place from all the seas in the world

 

[oprih]

A paradise in the middle of a desert.

 

[beijingwalker]

Real seas are at least 5,000 kilometers aways from all directions, that place is the farthest point from all seas.

Is it a lake or oasis?or which sea?can u elaborate

A huge lake and reservoir, serval water diversion rivers and canals move water melted from glaciers and snow mountains to this desert region.

This is in Xinjiang?wow just amazing , seriously u Chinese shouldn't listen to anyone's propaganda and keep doing your good work
This is so beautiful

lol the Caspian sea is literally less than 1500 km away...you can stop making up facts...

Dude....you can stop worshipping them now.


All they did was divert more water into a natural lake. I don't know which place the OP's talking about since everything is in Chinese but here's what a quick google search pulled up:

The lake is in the upper left side of Xinjiang.

By using the measuring line at the bottom right of the map, you can see it's within 1500 km of the Caspian sea. But going back to the topic, it's just a lake made bigger by more inflow of water from the surrounding area. Meaning less water for the places where it usually (naturally) went.

Also, this:

You can see even bigger lakes as you start approaching Tibet. This is all normal. Not a great engineering feat.

It's called a sea but basically a big salt water lake.

Mean better management of water instead of letting it evaporate in the middle of the desert, diverting and collecting water to be better used is no easy task, like China's south north water diversion program, I doubt that every country can do those projects on national levels and local levels as what China does.

Nope, it's a sea because it's mostly salty water and not freshwater. It was once connected to the Black Sea...so there you go.

Lakes are freshwater so it can't be classified as a lake.

LOL you can quit your bs right there. Multiple countries have done what you have done a long time in the past and will continue to do so.

Read up on the Hoover Dam (USA), Lake Nasser (Egypt) and many others.

Of the top 15 largest lake by volume, Russia has 6 (one at #2). China comes at #21, followed by Turkey at #22.

Lake Kariba in Zamiba/Zimbabve is the largest lake in the world by volume and Africa has 4 of the top 15 (5 out of top 20).

You can google this info if you want a source.

That's your definition, China has many salt water lakes and many lake once connceted to the oceans.

I said on state level and local local all across China, of course most countries have their water projects, but no one is close to China all across the country on state and local levels, this scale is unprecedented in human history.

That's partly explains why Xinjiang as one of the most water scarce plane on this planet people can still lavish on water just for fun while in neighoring central and south Asia, even big cities are running out of water and in rural regions people are fighting to get water from dirty puddle.

Salt water lakes?? Show me sources, links, proofs...

Like I said before, check out the Hoover Dam (USA) or Naseer Lake (Egypt) or the biggest artificial lake, made in dirt poor Africa.

It's easy to do stuff like this when you're rich, before China, I think poor African nations deserve the attention and the gratitude.

lol BS

The dead sea is a lake because it is a landlocked body of water. And it isn't just "basically" but by definition a salt lake. I hope I dont have to explain the salt part either.

Lakes are freshwater so it can't be classified as a lake.

lol BS

The classification of a body of water as a lake has nothing to do with freshwater or its level of salt or sulfur or whatever salts, metals or other chemicals are contaminating it. You probably missread some Google results that were talking about classification of lakes themselves.

Some of the largest lakes in the world like the "Aral Sea" or "Dead Sea" are salt lakes.

Now how about you spend 5 more minutes with your Google to look up how much BS you just posted, before ranting at me?

How about you read the post you are replying to first?
He said "I doubt that every country can". Do you understad what "every" means? It means objectively speaking two or even just one fucking country that cant and his assumption is proven true. So what are you even foaming about? Is Uganda doing it? Is Tajikistan doing it? Ethiopia doing it? Sri Lanka doing it? Afghanistan doing it? Lithuania doing it? Haiti doing it? Congo doing it?

If you try to prove that so that so "many" other countries have done it, what is even the point of cherrypicking two of the top 1% most obvious greatest historic and present contenders to China building some dam here or there. Bad habit? I mean we all know your motive is to refuse China credit where its due. Its the logic of the bs you come up with just for some silly denial that is in question here.

And he said "as what China does" not somehing like "the kind of things China does" "What China does" encompasses every contemporary achievement including some of the and the largest dams and largest canals in the world all together. This isn't a one on one competition. Many countries do not even have the dimensions to replicate even one of the larger Chinese projects, but here you are in total denial. Rather than apples and oranges you are comparing peanuts and oranges.

Salt water lakes?? Show me sources, links, proofs...

How about
