Photo taken on Jan 19, 2016 shows the scenery of mirabilite rime on the Salt Lake in Yuncheng, North China's Shanxi province. Mirabilite rime is formed when mirabilite crystalizes at a low temperature. The Salt Lake of Yuncheng, a typical inland saltwater lake, is the world's third largest sodium sulphate inland lake. Due to its high saltness, it is also called the "Dead Sea" of China. [Photo/Xinhua]
