Kusugul Lake in Mongolia, with 380 billion cubic meters of fresh water and 168 times to discover this natural wonder.
When it comes to the world's largest freshwater lake, many people immediately think of Lake Baikal. However, in Mongolia, there is another little-known, but also amazing, large lake, Lake Khuvsgul. You've probably never heard of it, but the water here is staggering.
Its size is comparable to Lake Baikal].
Lake Khuvsgul in northern Mongolia has a water surface of 2,760 square kilometers, which is very similar to Dongting Lake. But the incredible thing is that this reservoir has 380 billion cubic meters of reserves, which is 15 times larger than Poyang Lake, which is the largest lake in China!
The total reserves of all freshwater lakes in the country are 224.9 billion cubic meters, and the reserves of Lake Khuvsgul are equivalent to 168 times.
Incomprehensible, create infinite].
The main reason why Lake Khuvsgul is able to store so much water is its exceptional depth. It is a huge lake, with an average depth of more than 138 meters, and the deepest point is more than 262 meters.
That's why Lake Khuvsgul is almost a vast expanse of water, and its reserves are simply staggering. The lake, along with Lake Baikal, is the most precious fresh water in Mongolia**.
The Mongolian "Navy" defending the Motherland].
Ironically, although Mongolia is a landlocked country, there is still a "naval" army stationed on the shores of Lake Khuvsgul. This small fleet of only seven men looks weak, but they regard the lake as their own land, defending their country with their lives.
Such patriotic feelings moved us all. Perhaps one day, we will be able to see the vast lakes of Mongolia with our own eyes, and appreciate its vastness and vastness.
Scenic Scenic Area].
Due to its unique location and abundant water sources, Khuvsgul Lake has become a famous leisure destination in Mongolia. The lakeside is beautiful, and more than 40,000 people visit it every year.
Here, snow-capped mountains, green grass, European-style houses reflect dazzling light on the blue lake, giving people the feeling of being in a fairyland. When it comes to Lake Khuvsgul attracting tourists, it's hard to say no to this gem located in the mainland.
Geological wonders, colorful and colorful].
Lake Khuvsgul is also a great attraction for explorers and photographers. The lake is surrounded by small islands that provide a haven for hundreds of species of birds, as well as animals such as sheep, wild horses and moose. The lake is ever-changing and home to many rare fish.
From May to September, the island becomes a "bird paradise" due to the rising water level and the large swampy area where a large number of waterfowl inhabit. Many photographers come here to capture this special moment during such a season.
Civilization Heritage, Historical Imprint].
Khuvsgul Lake is also a lake with a long cultural heritage. In the 13th century, the great leader of the Mongols, Genghis Khan, used to hunt here. Around the lake, there are many ancient monuments, especially lava plateaus, which record the rise and fall of many savannahs.
Here, we can appreciate the atmosphere of the ancient savannah. They had never seen their ancestors, but from the lake, they could feel the taste of the ancients.
