    Salt water lake in Tibet (only salt water lake in Tibet), just 2.3 miles from the huge fresh water lake Manasarovar. About 100 sq. miles in area. It is so salty that there are no plants or fish in the lake and is considered toxic by the locals.

    You must try it in the fresh water lake nearby if the Chinese authorities allow you do so,
