Renowned Chinese artists, including Shanghai musician Liu Jin, vocalist Han Lei, veteran singer Anson Ping, and singer/song writers Ulan Tuya and Bai Xue, will present an audio-visual feast for the audiences. 

The calm water in Sayram Lake, the largest and highest alpine lake in Xinjiang, offers tourists a sense of serenity. During the performances, the artists will also tour in various locations along the lake.

The performance consists of two parts: "Jade Water and Green Mountains" and "Cultural Fusion and Ode to the Journey." Incorporating local cultural characteristics, the poem A Big Embrace to Sayram Lake was specially created to pay tribute to this splendid body of water, and will be recited by actors Liu Jin and Wen Yujuan. 

The Sayram Lake performance celebrates the lake's vibrant culture and Xinjiang's ethnic unity, weaving a rich tapestry of music, dance, and drama that speaks of a new high-quality development era in the region.
