Scenic spot introduction:
Lake Tahoe in California, also known as Lake Tahoe, was called "the most beautiful landscape on earth" by the famous American writer and speaker Mark Twain. It is a treasure of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. This picturesque lake is one of the deepest and clearest mountain lakes in the world. Not only is it surrounded by mountain peaks and the scenery is intoxicating, it is also a paradise for people's enthusiastic outdoor sports. Every weekend and holiday, you can always see campers towing jet skis and even canoes on the road to Lake Tahoe; and when winter comes, ski trails of all levels also welcome an endless stream of skiers. Or, even the Winter Olympics were held here. I believe that every visitor to Lake Tahoe will be deeply moved by the gem-like blue water and the lively sports atmosphere. The unique wooden houses and hotels will also lead people to enjoy a paradise-like vacation time.Attractions distribution:
