Are you going to wander in the northwest

I found that I haven't been out to play for a long time. After work, I can't always date my friends. I am busy with all kinds of work and have no time. Ok, I'll go shopping by myself.

Before leaving, I saw a lot of raiders in Weibo and Xiaohongshu, and I also saw a travel agency in Taobao. The night before departure, I saw the "Veteran Outdoor" recommended by some people in Xiaohongshu, mainly because the photos were so beautiful, and I also took aerial photos with drones, so I booked this 7-day and 6-night Northwest Link. Because I am alone, I can carpool with others. If there are many people, I can choose to charter a car.

Preparation before departure: 1, clothes. It is best to wear a long red dress in the desert, a white or yellow dress by the lake, and a handsome one on the road. A pair of Martin boots can travel all over the world, and a pair of flip-flops can be taken. You can change into the water, and it is best to bring a thin down jacket. It's windy, rainy and cold in Qinghai. 2. others. Sunscreen and mask must be brought. The northwest is too dry. You should apply a mask every day. Sunscreen should be applied at any time. If I don't, my nose will get sunburned like me. Sunglasses are necessary for concave modeling. Scarf, sun protection, wind protection. Fisherman's hat, sunshade. Ice sleeves, sun protection. A small bag and a carry-on bag.

Day 1 day: Shenzhen flies to Xining. The early flight in the morning arrived in Xining at noon, and I checked into the collapsed youth hostel in Xining booked on the flying pig. Just across the street from Dongguan Mosque, two people share a bed, only 40, and I was the only one living that night. The environment is ok, and the boss is super good. The room I saw on the flying pig was obviously 68, and he said that as long as it was 40, just take a room of 40. ...

After a short rest in Xining, I began to wander around in the afternoon, eating skin and yogurt, visiting Dongguan Mosque (it didn't open the door, but I didn't see anything), Geometry Bookstore (a big bookstore, I like the design inside, which is very atmospheric), Mojia Street (just one street, it seems there is nothing to visit) and Qian Xin International Plaza (a night market in Xining, where I ate some snacks casually, but not as good as Dunhuang night market).

Do you want to go out to play together? Do some more shopping to prepare for tomorrow's Northwest Great Ring Road.

The next day: get up early, put on makeup, pack my bags, have breakfast and start my trip to the Great Northwest Link. After getting on the bus, the team leader Lao Yan said that the weather is not good today, so let's take the return route. If you go to Chaka Salt Lake in Qinghai Lake in this weather, you won't see anything. Then we discussed with two other friends in the car and took the return route. The first stop on the return trip is Zhangye. On the first day, I will pass through Daban Mountain and Menyuan, and cross the Qilian Mountain Prairie. In fact, on the first day, because of the weather, it was windy and rainy, and I didn't see anything. I was freezing to death. At this time, a thin down jacket is very important. The jacket I'm wearing is still very cold, so I dare not get off.

Arrive in Zhangye in the evening and stay in Zhangye. The hotel arranged by Lao Yan is still ok. As long as 100 a night, the scenery outside the window is the beautiful Danxia landform. The beef noodles casually eaten at noon are not very delicious, and the pepper chicken eaten in Zhangye at night is quite delicious.

Day 3: On the second day of the Great Ring Road, I made an appointment with two other friends to watch the sunrise at Danxia landform at 5: 30 in the morning, and I overslept. I am really embarrassed. I met my teammates in this pit on the first day. I was embarrassed to let them wait for me, so I let them go first. I dawdled and washed myself, and then went to Danxia landform alone.

After Danxia landform came back, I set off for Jiayuguan. The city wall is the first pass in the world, but after reading it on the Internet, others said it was not very good-looking, and I was not very interested, so I strolled outside, digested it and didn't go in.

Jiayuguan came out and went to Dunhuang. In the evening, I went to Dunhuang and went directly to see the performance of Dunhuang again. Two other friends went to the night market. I have to say that seeing Dunhuang again is very shocking. The figures are in front of us, and the form of live performance left us the deepest impression. We stood on the ground and watched their performance in the glass below. This has never happened before, but it's ok. It took an hour and a half to introduce Dunhuang.

? I am the vast galaxy you look up at.

I am the endless road you look down on.

I am the most magnificent wheat field in this land.

I am the vastest sky in this wheat field.

I am a road, and I am the oath on this road.

I am your ancestor, from 2 100 years ago.

I am your moment, I am your Millennium. ......

Day 4: Tickets for the Mogao Grottoes 1 1 are booked in advance, and I can finally sleep in in the morning. We bought A-class tickets and can visit eight caves? I fell asleep watching two small films about the Mogao Grottoes. ...

After coming out, we went to Yue Quan Town to eat super delicious cold rice noodles and Tongguan Chinese hamburger. Because I thought it was delicious, I went back to Dunhuang to eat it again. In the afternoon, the team leader Lao Yan took me to the camping base, which is also a desert, and opened the desert photo mode.

And wait for camping in the desert at night? At the bonfire party, I met many lovely friends, all of whom came out to surf. I stayed in the inn of my friend who was the tour leader at night, or I could choose to camp in the desert, just to set up a tent, but I didn't see the starry sky that night, which was a bit regrettable. Desert camping is still worth a visit. From 9: 00, we will go sand skiing in the desert, and then come back to eat hot pot and drink together, and we can also enjoy singing and dancing performances. After eating, we will start a bonfire party. Finally, we will camp in the desert and watch the stars. In the morning, we can watch the sunrise and meet many lovely friends.

Day 5: Dunhuang set out for Dachaidan. Originally, I was going to Yangguan, but everyone agreed not to go to Yangguan or the oil town. My curiosity made me go, and then I went in alone and took some photos. Sure enough, they are very clever ... We passed a ghost town in Ya Dan on the way, and we went in to take pictures again.

In the afternoon, I went to the Emerald Lake in Dachaidan. There are many people, and the photos are not so good. In the evening, the team leader took us to eat super delicious Kangguo mutton.

Day 6: The most beautiful highway-Dongtai Jinaier Lake-Ya Dan on the water.

There are so many people taking pictures on the U-shaped highway. Take a picture to see if the car has arrived. Safety is the most important thing. The most beautiful is Lake Jiner in Dongtai, which is called the China version of Maldives. Super beautiful, beautiful beyond description. Ya Dan doesn't feel anything on the water, so he needs a ticket of 120. It can only be said that the scenic spots are more beautiful without spending money. I ate roast lamb kidneys near the hotel in the evening.

Day 7: Dachaidan-Chaka Salt Lake-Qinghai Lake

The weather is not very good? Chaka Salt Lake, where no one takes pictures of me, feels very ordinary. I walked around and went out, and then I went to Qinghai Lake. Friends in the same trade actually said that they would go straight back to Xining at night. What a ghost! I won't return to Xining until tomorrow. I didn't go to the Daotang River as expected, and I didn't finish visiting Qinghai Lake ... I finally returned to Xining, but the tour leader said I would go to Qinghai Lake again tomorrow. Okay, okay, I just think this trip is a little too much.

After returning to Xining in the evening, I ended the first part of wandering, then started the second wandering trip and went to a place where I didn't play enough.

Day 8: Visit Qinghai Lake again.

See rape flowers, ride a white horse, rest in places like yurts at night, attend small bonfire parties at night, and dance there. The boiled yak meat, hand-grabbed mutton and sauerkraut vermicelli eaten in Qinghai Lake are all delicious, and I want to eat them again.

Day 9: Qinghai Lake-Chaka Salt Lake (the second time)

Having breakfast in the morning, I met a little brother in the northeast. Several of them signed up for a two-day tour, which happened to have a vacancy in their car. Then I joined another group, met two big brothers in Northeast China and a little sister in Gansu, and came to Chaka Salt Lake. This time, someone took a picture of me, because with my friends, I felt that Chaka Salt Lake seemed more lovely.

These two big brothers in Northeast China are very nice, straightforward and talkative. When chatting, one of them said that I definitely don't have any northeast friends, and then said that you will have northeast friends from today, which poked my tears and left tears that moved me.

Chaka Salt Lake passes through Qinghai Lake Prairie on the way back to Xining. It's so beautiful, every shot is wallpaper!

When I went back to Xining in the evening, I ate a hot pot that broke up. Today, friends in Northeast China will say goodbye.

Then I started my third journey, from Xining to Dunhuang. For the night market and the starry sky, I always feel that it is an incomplete journey not to see the starry sky.

Day 10: Xining-Dunhuang

Starting from Xining at noon and arriving in Dunhuang at night, the first thing to do is to visit Dunhuang night market, ask another friend I met on the road before what is delicious in the night market, and then go straight to the destination.

Day 1 1: Wei and Jin Tombs-Dunhuang Museum-Dunhuang Ancient City-Desert Starry Sky

The next day, I found Sister Zhen whom I met on the road before. She is a private car. Then I went to rub a seat and ate and played with Sister Zhen and her leader Oda, a literary fat man. At noon, I finally ate my favorite cold rice noodles and China steamed stuffed bun, and then I went to the Wei and Jin tombs. It really went through a grave. That feeling! Two tombs, one was stolen by grave robbers and the other was opened by the state. Elder sister introduced it very carefully, even more carefully than the commentator in Mogao Grottoes. There are a couple guarding the tomb here, which reminds me of the scene where Wang Jianguo said the tomb was dancing. Originally, Sister Zhen planned to ride a camel in Crescent Spring, but when she arrived at the door of Crescent Spring, she couldn't walk when she saw the ancient costume. Then I changed their plans and asked Oda to take us to the ancient city of Dunhuang and had a wave of costume addiction. I also wanted to shoot a set of Hanfu in the desert, but the photographer ruthlessly refused because it was too late. ...

It's time to go back after eating and drinking. This is a shocking news. Prior to this, the team leader Lao Yan went to Dunhuang. In order to satisfy my little wish to see the starry sky, I left moving tears! Look at the starry sky. The stars in the sky are really beautiful. I also saw the Big Dipper and the Milky Way, which means that my trip is complete and I can go back without regrets.

Traveling to the northwest, carpooling or chartered car is still the first choice. Of course, you can also drive by car, but if the road is unfamiliar and there is no signal on some sections, it is still a bit difficult to drive by car. Carpool/chartered car leaders are generally familiar with the route in the northwest and know where there are interesting and delicious foods. Hotel accommodation prices will be more favorable along the way. Of course, the most important thing is to take your picture. That's why I chose them. I can shoot wherever I want. Drone aerial photography is splashing water, and I am very satisfied with the photos and videos taken. I'm still glad that I chose this "veteran outdoor" before I left. Then I happened to meet our team leader, Lao Yan, who took so many beautiful photos for me, took care of us along the way, reminded us of various things, took us to eat delicious food, bought us yogurt and ate apricots casually in the car, instead of letting you out when you got off the bus and coming back during the activity time, as some tour groups did. Those who want to go to the Northwest Great Ring Road and Sichuan-Tibet Line can pay attention to it. If you want to contact me, you can trust me privately.

I gained a lot of memories and feelings when I went out for a circle, and I also met many friends who like waves. Some waves went to Tibet, some went to other places, and some returned to their original cities. Regardless of age or sex, we are all travelers and friends! Life is boring, depending on how you treat it. May you be interesting and lovely, and the sun be warm. May we meet again next time and have a good drink.
