Ghost Town
|
 |
| On the western part of the |
| Jungar Basin is an anceint |
| "town" exceeding several |
| square kilometers, known as |
| "Ghost Town". In the remote |
| past, the area was once a |
| vast fresh water lake and |
| became land during the |
| orogenic movement.The deposit at bottom of the lake through
a |
| long,long time of weathering and erosion became a fortress-like |
| town of about 60 sq,km known as "Ghost Town". It
is an attractive |
| site for tourists. |
| Today's Ghost Town is not an empty town as it once was but
a booming |
| Oil Town,with countless oil-drilling rigs that produce natural
pitch |
| which is an essential material for making high-quality paint
and |
| insulation material. |
