West Small Heavenly Lake

　　   West Small Heavenly Lake is situated beside the road two kilometers downhill from Heavenly Lake. It is a barrier lake formed during ancient glacial movements and is primarily supplied with water from Heavenly Lake. The lake's surface is round as a full moon, with crystal-clear and deep blue waters. Surrounded by Tianshan spruce trees, the lake reflects the shadows of pine trees on its surface. On clear nights when the bright moon hangs high in the sky, the tranquil reflection sinks into the still waters, creating an exquisitely serene scene—thus it is also called "Dragon Pool and Jade Moon." A waterfall cascades down beside the lake, like a silver river falling to earth, scattering pearls and splashing jade, hence it is known as the "Silver Curtain of the Jade Pool." At the mountain peak above the lake stands a quaint pavilion named Taotao Pavilion.
