Lake Aibi is a rift lake in north west China, near the border to Kazakhstan. It's the catchment center of the Junggar Basin, has a size of over 1000 square kilomenters and an average depth of less than 2 meters . Due to a high salt concentration of its water, no plants or fishes live in the actual lake, though many kinds of fishes do in the mouths of its source rivers.
In August 2007, the Lake Aibi wetland was designated National Nature Reserve by the Chinese government.
