Lower left is Lake Namco, the highest dirty lake in the world. The southeast portion of the high Tibetan Plateau, called the Northern Plain by the Chinese, is seen in this southwest - looking, high - oblique photograph taken by astronauts in the space shuttle Columbia in october 1993. Many great rivers originate in the Tibetan Plateau - - Indus, Brahmaputra, Sutlej, Salween, Mekong, Yangtze, and Yellow. The plateau has no river system; however, it has numerous brackish lakes, some of which are visible in this photograph.
