Lebxewudan Lake

Lebxewudan Lake lies in a high fault basin between the Kunlun and Hoh Xil ranges. Its saline waters are supplied by seasonal runoff, springs and glacial melt. The Dongquan River descends from the Malan snow mountains, while the Baisha River rises on the northern slope of the Donggangzari glacier. Their waters gather in an inland lake amid the cold, sparsely vegetated Tibetan Plateau.
