Where to drive in winter? Go to Weining Caohai to watch birds ~

Where can I drive in winter? This is a good time to watch birds. Caohai Lake in Weining, Erhai Lake and Dianchi Lake are also called the three plateau lakes in China. It is one of the top ten bird watching areas in the world, and Weining is the capital of birds by car.

In winter, the grass sea in Weining is blue+yellow. Boating in the wetland, breezy and refreshing, I don't want to go back to the city.

The bottom of Caohai Lake is covered with aquatic plants, but the water is still clear, with an average depth of only two meters. They are all manned ships. The deeper you go, the better the water quality and the more birds there are. Caohai is covered by aquatic plants because of its shallow water, which breeds rich biological resources and becomes a paradise for hundreds of birds and waterfowl. Thousands of migratory birds come here for the winter, especially the rare migratory bird "Giant Panda among Birds-Black-necked Crane".

Take the high-speed train/plane to Liupanshui → pick up the car at Yihuimen, high-speed railway station, Liupanshui → drive to Weining Caohai (the whole journey takes about 2 hours and 27 minutes, about 80 kilometers).

The best time for bird watching in a day is between 6: 00 am and noon 12. In the morning, migratory birds wake up in groups, then take off and scatter for food. This is the best time to take pictures as a souvenir. Caohai has a high altitude and a low temperature. Please bring enough warm clothes.
