Tianshuihai

From the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin Chinese pronunciation for 甜水海 (Tiánshuǐhǎi).

On a vast, dry lakebed called Tianshuihai, we came to a community of sorts, a desperate huddle of concrete and mud structures. My map labeled the region “Soda Plain,” and it seemed a long time since any water had gathered there. It was also, evidently, earthquake country. Buildings, many of them abandoned, had been shaken off their foundations; their walls had cracked and roofs fallen in.
