Silk Road City Guide - Tashkurgan

Two huge snow mountains appear on the left. The two peaks are both over 7,000 meters .Kongur Shan and Muztagata. This is a good spot to break the journey to stay by the magnificent Kalakuli Lake, there accommodation and food are expensive and bad, but the scenery is excellent. A stop here is not complete until you have taken a photo of Muztagata and its inverted image reflected in the lake. The weather can change extremely quickly here, sunshine one minute, rain and snow the next.
