In the middle of winter, the temperature in Zhaosu County, Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang continues to drop, and ice bubbles and ice lotuses appear in Yuhu Lake in the Aheyazi Grand Canyon. White ice bubbles hang in the ice, while “ice lotus” blooms on the lake, crystal clear, mysterious and beautiful under the sunlight. Ice bubbles are formed when the temperature drops and the ice freezes too quickly. A large amount of gases such as methane released by the decomposition of microorganisms in the lake bottom humus are “locked” in the ice during the rising process.
