Lakes in China

Ok, imagine a big swimming pool that's so big, you can't even see the other end. These are called lakes. In China, there are lots of lakes that are very special and important.

Now, lakes need water to fill them up and keep them clean. In China, sometimes people use too much water from the rivers that go into the lakes. This can make the lakes smaller and not as clean for the animals and plants that live there.

But some lakes in China have been made even more special because they have something called hot springs. This means that the water is really warm and has some special things in it that can help people's skin and health.

Some lakes in China are also very pretty and have lots of colors. This is because of the different things that are in the water, like minerals and plants.

Overall, lakes in China are important for the environment and to help people feel good. It's important to take care of them so they stay clean and full of healthy and happy animals and plants.
