Silk Road - Badain Jaran: desert
In the desert, there are over one hundred lakes of source water scattered among the dunes, some are fresh water and others are salty. These lakes give the name of the desert that in Mongolian language means mysterious lakes. © Tina Ponzellini - See the Silk Road map with a complete picture set.
