Mitijangazanmo Lake

Mitijangazanmo is a great salt lake in the interior of the Tibetan plateau. The Tanggula and Zurken Ula mountains enclose its basin, and streams fed by glaciers enter its waters. To the southwest lies Dorsotung Lake, which has been connected to it at times of high water. Their shores lie in a cold, dry country close to the sources of the Yangtze.
