Qinghai Lake Tour Guide 2017

When it comes to Qinghai Lake, we have to talk about its beauty. In fact, I have always wanted to take a good look at this place where I study. When I finally had the opportunity to embark on this journey, I was filled with emotions. I keep wondering if the beauty here is real. Sometimes people can easily become confused.

As we all know, Qinghai Lake is the largest inland saltwater lake in China. Every year in July and August, thousands of acres of rapeseed flowers attract many tourists. The beauty here is far more than that. There are many beautiful scenery on the road that are indispensable. Let's start my journey!

First stop: Kambula

Kambula National Forest Park consists of unique Danxia landforms, dense forest vegetation, ancient religious culture, majestic power station dams, The beautiful canyon reservoir area and unique Tibetan customs make it an ideal destination for travel, pilgrimage, sightseeing, vacation, camping, scientific research and eco-tourism.

Tip:

Tickets: 50 yuan per person, but the ticket price is 200 yuan.

Private cars are not allowed to enter the scenic area.

Second stop: Qinghai Lake (Erlangjian Scenic Area)

Erlangjian Scenic Area, due to its special geographical location winding deep into Qinghai Lake, has an ecology dominated by grasslands, beaches and animals. Natural resources and folk cultural activities have become a dazzling pearl in the Qinghai Lake tourist area.

Erlangjian built a viewing area in the dock square consisting of a bird watching platform, a deer watching garden, a sea watching bridge, a sea watching pavilion, and a leisure area composed of the "Four Auspicious Sites" sculptures.

Tip:

Before arriving (Erlangjian Scenic Area), you have to walk a long way around the lake. There will be local herdsmen’s pastures surrounding the lake on the roadside for a fee of 50 yuan. /people.

I recommend you not to go. Not worth it. Go straight to (Erlangjian Scenic Area) and you will find everything you need.

Heimahe Town, Qinghai Lake tourist season, the houses near attractions like this are so expensive. Standard rooms (prefabricated rooms) are generally 300 yuan/night, and better ones are 500-600 yuan/night.

The third stop: Chaka Salt Lake

Get up at four in the morning and rush to Chaka Salt Lake overnight to watch the sunrise there. I heard that it is so beautiful when the sun rises over the sparkling lake. Although the scenery here does not look as beautiful as expected, it is still very suitable for taking pictures.

Tips:

Tickets: Tickets for Qinghai Lake 151 Scenic Area: 100 yuan/person, and you can take a cruise within 45 yuan.

Summer and autumn are the best places to go. There is snow in the winter and industrial salt mining in the spring.

The fourth stop: Wanli Rapeseed Fields

The scenery from Qilian County to Menyuan is beautiful, surrounded by mountains, with rolling grasslands and cattle and sheep everywhere. At this time we were going crazy on the grassland and had no fun at all.

The rapeseed was not harvested and it was said that it was hit by hail. I only saw the rapeseed tree trunks, not the thousands of acres of rapeseed tree trunks! Choosing the season is important!

Tip:

From early July every year, the rapeseed flowers here are in full bloom. The flowering period is from July 5th to 25th, and the best flowering period is from July 10th to 20th.

Driving on the grassland by the lake, it is not very wide, and there is an indescribable feeling, the winding mountain road Climbing mountains is also quite fun.

But driving by yourself is too tiring. Drivers of more than two must be "prepared"

All gas and tolls must be paid by themselves.

The deposit for violations is 2,000 yuan, which will be returned within 30-40 days after returning the car.

The price is 330/day, which is a bit expensive, but traveling over mountains and ridges will cause a lot of damage to the car, so it’s worth it.

Chartered car: (including driver) is about 800 yuan/day, and the chef has to pay for his own meals and accommodation. Postage and travel costs will be borne by the owner. The legendary master can take you to some beautiful places unknown to outsiders, and even evade fares!
