Flowering: from early July to mid-August.

Location: It is best near Jiro Sword.

Mode of transportation: It is recommended to hire a car/car.

The golden rape flower sea is embedded in the blue lake, which constitutes a beautiful picture with bright colors. You must not miss it!

There are several rape flowers in Qinghai, among which the Baili Rape Flower Sea in Menyuan is the most famous, but the flowering period is very short, only about 20 days, and the road is far away. Therefore, it is recommended that you can see the rape flowers by the lake without much effort.

The rape fields around Erlangjian are the most beautiful along Qinghai Lake ~ However, the rape fields are generally privately owned by Tibetans and will be fenced off. The photo should be submitted to 10-20 yuan, and the time is not limited.

Gahai

Photography index: ★★★★★★★

Fun index: ★★★★★★★

Location: near Shadao.

Mode of transportation: It is recommended to hire a car/car.

Due to geological and climatic reasons, a desert appeared along the coast of Qinghai Lake. The double landscape of lakes and vast sand dunes is spectacular.

Sand island is the main attraction to watch the desert customs, attracting a large number of tourists: on one side is the vast sand dunes, and on the other side is the boundless blue Qinghai Lake. You can also ride a cross-country motorcycle and experience sand skiing, which will make it a complete explosion of Erlang Sword Scenic Area that regular travel agencies must visit.

However, the entrance ticket to Sha Island is expensive, and the peak season is 100 yuan per person. You need to queue up for the shuttle bus to enter the scenic spot, and all kinds of projects in the scenic spot have to be charged separately.

In fact, not far from the sand island, there is a place where the scenery is not lost to the sand island but the cost performance is higher-Gahai. Sharing the same desert with Shadao, plateau lakes are bluer than Qinghai Lake, and neat yurts are very primitive, little known, quieter and undisturbed.

Ivory temple

Fun index: ★★★★★

Venue: Ivory Temple

Transportation: Take it back by chartered car/car, or ride it near Erlangjian.

The sunset on the lake is shocking and magnificent, and it is also a unique scenery of Qinghai Lake.

The Ivory Temple, not far from Erlang Sword, is an excellent choice to watch the sunset. Although it is close to the scenic spot, it is little known and can be appreciated very close. Silent temples, romantic swings, brilliant sunsets and lakes reflected by the afterglow of the sunset, enjoy this beauty alone in such a small and secret place!

Heimahe

Recommended index: ★★★★★

Photography index: ★★★★★

Fun index: ★★★★

Location: Heima River to Bird Island 15. 1 km (near Huanhu West Road).

Mode of transportation: It is recommended to hire a car/car.

The sunrise landscape of Heima River is also classic enough. When the weather is fine, a blockbuster can be released in a few minutes.

Although many people come here, most tourists live in Heimahe Township, not by the lake. You need to get up early to watch the sunrise and go to the bridgehead or Panchen scenic spot in the town. There are so many people.

The secret is to stay in a hotel by the lake, recommend a business hotel by the lake, and you can see the sunrise of Heima River through the window. Walk 100 meters to see the lake at close range, and enjoy the best sunrise viewing place alone, which has absolute advantages!

Peak season reference price: 680-800 standard room near the lake.

Independent as Gahai!

On the half slope facing the mountain and the sea, flowers are everywhere in midsummer, and the excellent geographical location is quiet and beautiful.

Surrounded by fertile pastures, cattle and sheep are everywhere, and there are countless springs, which have a rare wetland landscape.

All kinds of waterfowl fly over the lake, and if they are lucky, they will meet very precious black-necked cranes strolling in wetlands.

Ps: Black-necked crane is the highest flying bird in the world, and it has very high requirements for the ecological environment. Nowadays, global climate change has greatly affected the living space of black-necked cranes. A doctor of ornithology once said: Now the black-necked crane looks at it once, but less once.

Kaka salt lake

Fun index: ★★★★

Location: Near Chaka Town

Admission price: 70 yuan/person (round trip by train 100 yuan/person).

Opening hours: 7: 00 ~ 18: 30.

Chaka Salt Lake, as an online celebrity spot in Qinghai Lake, has attracted countless people with the popularity of Top 1.

Remember that classic red dress photo ~

Although people have different views on tea cards, people who have special feelings about tea cards will not hesitate to put it on their itinerary.

The biggest attraction of Chaka Salt Lake is man in the mirror. The best effect appears on a sunny day without wind or waves. The thin lake is covered with a layer of white salt. The lake reflects the whole sky and the skyline disappears in the distance. Water and sky are the same, ethereal and distant, just like a fairyland. At present, Chaka Salt Lake is being upgraded and reopened in May this year 1.

Since I'm here, the following suggestions can maximize the experience of Chaka Salt Lake:

1. Most hotels go to Chaka Salt Lake by car in the afternoon, so fewer people will go in the morning, and the traffic jam on the road will be improved a lot.

2. The head and tail of the scenic spot are the places with the most people (the whole journey is 2-3km). Most people either stay only a few steps away from the scenic spots without taking a small train, or take the train to the deepest place. At this time, if you walk farther inside, you can find the least crowded road ~

3. Take some interesting photo props, such as red umbrellas, scarves and hats. No matter what weather can play a role, the effect is good.

Tips:

1.

Except Erlangjian, Chaka Salt Lake and Sand Island, many places are privately owned by local Tibetans and separated by fences. So although there are no tickets, you still need to pay some fees to enter the game. General 10-20 yuan. The best way is to find a reliable local driver to take it with you, so that you won't be trapped, and you can be sent directly to the least crowded place according to your experience.

2. There are many Tibetans in the local area, so we should pay attention to avoiding conflicts and show respect. Don't go into their "territory" by mistake, and don't destroy the local environment, animals, etc.

Suggested location: Thangka: Na Brinca Hotel near Erlangjian, and then pass Garila Temple.

Thangka is a unique painting art form in Tibetan culture, and its subject matter contains almost everything related to Tibetans. Painted with pure natural pigments such as gold, silver, pearls and cinnabar, it can be circulated for thousands of years without discoloration. Along the Qinghai Lake, there are projects set up by Thangka painters, which can give you a preliminary experience of painting Thangka.

Turning the scriptures is a unique ritual of Tibetan Buddhism and a manifestation of believers' piety. Walk clockwise, turn the warp beam and feel the profoundness of Tibetan culture in the unique Lanshan Ancient Temple.

Cycling around the lake

Recommended index: ★★★★★★★

Experience index: ★★★★★★★

Fun index: ★★★★★★★

Qinghai Lake is about 350 kilometers long. If you ride all, time and physical strength will be very difficult, but it would be a pity not to ride.

In fact, riding around Qinghai Lake has many levels of scenery.

Around the whole Qinghai Lake, we selected three elite cycling sections, each of which is about 7km (30 minutes' cycling time), which is relaxed and wonderful.

1. Riding in the desert (about 7 km)-the section near Huanhu East Road.

2. Riding at sunset (about 7 kilometers)-the section near Ivory Temple.

3. Ride the lake (about 7 kilometers)-the section near Huanhu West Road.

Xiaobo Lake "Museum"

Recommended index: ★★★★★

Experience index: ★★★★★

Fun index: ★★★★★

Tickets and opening hours: Private museums are free to open at any time without tickets, but it is best to make an appointment in advance.

Venue: Hu Xiaobo Wetland

There is a very shabby private "museum" in the humble Xiaobo Lake wetland near Qinghai Lake. It is a teacher from Nanjia, Tibet who has been waiting for the witness of Qinghai Lake for more than 20 years: sand control, garbage cleaning and saving rare animals such as Huangyu and Przewalski's gazelle.

I was deeply impressed by Nanjia's story about Qinghai's past life and his presence here.

You can follow him to see the wetland that changed from sand to wetland under his management. If you are interested, you can also donate a small sapling to plant it yourself, which is very memorable!

Ta 'er Temple, a scenic spot near Qinghai Lake.

In addition to thousands of palaces and courtyards where Han and Tibetan are integrated, Ta 'er Temple has three artistic wonders-butter sculpture, mural painting and pile embroidery. The butter sculpture museum is especially worth seeing. Its flowers and plants are rich and restrained in color, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false. Its characters are delicate and vivid, and its face is shining, just like their real bodies.

Admission to Ta 'er Temple: 80 yuan/person.

Opening hours: 8:00- 18:00 in summer and 8:00- 17:30 in winter.

Zhuo'er Mountain

When you board Zhuo'er Mountain, you can see the snow-capped mountains in the distance and the colorful Danxia nearby. There is smoke at the foot of the mountain and meadow forest on the mountainside. Sunlight shines on the hillside, forming light and shadow, and sketching a magnificent and vast three-dimensional picture for Zhuo'er Mountain. Zhuo'er Mountain is temporarily closed, and the opening time is undetermined.

Menyuan rape flower scenic spot

At the beginning of July every year, 600,000 mu of rape blossoms in Menyuan are in full bloom, interwoven with the highland barley in the field, like an overwhelming yellow-green blanket, stretching wantonly under the vast sky, and connecting with the boundless distant blue sky and towering snow-capped mountains, which is spectacular. The best flower viewing period of Menyuan is July 10-20.

Best shooting location and viewing platform tickets: Dabanshan viewing platform 60 yuan, Yuanshan viewing platform 60 yuan, Zhaobi Mountain 30 yuan.

Huanhu west road

Qinghai Lake is the most beautiful section, with straight and flat roads and wide horizons. Many people sit on the road and take pictures. Qinghai Lake is also close at hand, even through the window glass, it keeps shooting.

Sunrise and sunset in Heima River

In the morning, it was dark between heaven and earth. The lake was red first, then dispersed, the sun slowly emerged, and then suddenly jumped out. The lake is still beating violently against the shore, as if it had become accustomed to it, leaving only the admiration of tourists.

In the evening, clouds like cotton are quietly suspended on the lake. The golden sunset polluted the lake and burned the whole sky like a fire.

How can you miss such a beautiful scenery!

Heimahe Town is the most concentrated place for catering and accommodation, but the accommodation conditions are very simple. The lake is very cold, so you should pay attention to cold protection even in summer. Spare down jacket is recommended.

Binggoulinhai

Over the Dadongshushan Pass at an altitude of 4120m, there is an ice ditch and a forest in front. The scenic spot has not been developed yet, and it is a relatively primitive natural scenery. The top of the mountain is covered with snow, and there are many pines and cypresses on both sides. At the foot is a grassland, and a stream of snow water flows through it, which is cool even in midsummer. There is also a camping base in the scenic area, where you can have a picnic and barbecue.

qilian mountain grassland

The endless Qilian Mountains grassland is one of the most beautiful grasslands in China. Every July and August, the scenery is the most beautiful, the grass is lush and the river is winding. The surrounding snow-capped mountains surround the grassland like snow-white Hada, and flocks of cattle and sheep graze leisurely, which looks like black and white notes from a distance, composing a touching melody for the grassland.
