There was nowhere to fall in the water, but the pool, which is also called the "Chinese Dead Sea", was literally teeming with people last weekend.

People with colorful inflatable circles turned the surface of the water into a rainbow kaleidoscope.
However, it was possible to swim with so many visitors only conditionally: about 10 thousand people crammed into the water like herrings in a barrel.
That's how much this pool holds at a time. According to the owners of the water park, more than a million people visit the huge pool every summer.
The man-made sea was created using the rich salt reserves of the region. Water contains 43 different minerals and trace elements.
In addition to the pool, visitors can enjoy the spa, play on the golf course or watch the performance of foreign cheerleaders.
