Hot summer is the best time to travel in summer. Golmud in Qinghai is a tourist attraction with a series of snow-capped mountains, Sanjiang, Hoh Xil and Salt Lake Canyon. So what are the tourist attractions in Golmud, Qinghai?

1, Chaerhan Salt Lake

Chaerhan Salt Lake is located in the south of Qaidam Basin, which spans Golmud and Dulan. The salt lake is 160 km long from east to west, 20-40 km wide from north to south, with a salt layer thickness of about 2-20 meters and an area of more than 5,800 square kilometers, almost 56 times that of Chaka Salt Lake. It is the largest natural salt lake and the largest soluble potassium magnesium salt deposit in China.

It is understood that Chaerhan Salt Lake consists of several adjacent salt ponds, such as Dabusun Lake, South Hobson Lake, North Hobson Lake and Nissen Lake, with an altitude of 2,670 meters, which is the lowest point in the Qaidam Basin. The lake has nearly 500 million tons of potassium chloride, 65.438+65 million tons of magnesium chloride, 8.246 million tons of lithium chloride and 46.22 billion tons of sodium chloride, all ranking first in the country, especially the sodium chloride reserves.

2. Golmud Populus euphratica desert park

Golmud Populus euphratica forest generally refers to Golmud Populus euphratica forest reserve, but the reserve is usually closed to tourists. The place we come from is called Golmud Populus euphratica Forest desert park, which belongs to the same area as Populus euphratica Forest Reserve, and is located in the desert Gobi area at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, only15km apart, but the scale and density of Populus euphratica Forest are slightly poor. This is a free and open tourist attraction.

Populus euphratica is a magical and ancient plant. It can live and die for thousands of years, but it will not rot for thousands of years. It is a unique and precious forest resource in desert area, which grows in desert and Gobi, and has the characteristics of cold resistance, drought resistance, saline-alkali resistance and sandstorm resistance. Its vitality is extremely tenacious and it is known as the patron saint of the desert. In fact, it was not the most beautiful season when we came. If we come to play in autumn, the photos will be more beautiful.

3. Wild luxury town of Taj Nair

3 15 National Road is called route 66 of China, and there are many famous scenic spots among network celebrities along the way, among which the wild and luxurious Taj Mahal town is one of them. It is located at 894 kilometers of 3 15 national highway, adjacent to the famous Dongtai Jinaier Lake. However, the lake in Jinaier, Dongtai has dried up in a large area, leaving only a vast Gobi desert and a wild and luxurious town, which, like the advanced human civilization lost on another planet, brings us unlimited imagination.

The wild and luxurious town of Jinaier is divided into four types: Ya Dan Villa in Salt Lake, Dome Starry Room, Luxury RV and Wild and Luxury Tent. Some are like five-pointed stars made of glass balls, some are like constellations made of family cars, some are neatly arranged, and some are dotted. There are many scenic spots around this town, such as Ya Dan on the water, west taihu lake and online celebrity expressway. For friends who come to 3 15 by car, it is a very good place to stay and rest. At night, you can enjoy the lonely smoke in the desert and shoot the Gobi starry sky at night. It's beautiful to think about it.

4. Kunlun Grand Canyon

Kunlun Mountain Grand Canyon, also known as Kunlun Mountain Grand Canyon, is a part of Kunlun Mountain World Geopark. The entrance is about15km away from the main road of Qinghai-Tibet Highway, and there are natural wonders such as the Grand Canyon, Antelope Valley and Snow Mountain Canyon. The Grand Canyon is the first scenic spot to enter.

There is a small river in the canyon, which is said to be a tributary of Kunlun River, and there is no sightseeing trail beside it. So if you want to visit, you have to drive an SUV through a narrow canyon, where the water is splashing and it is extremely cool. Especially in July and August, major cities all over the country are welcoming the high temperature of 40 degrees, and the cool wind in the canyon blows on the face, which is very comfortable.

5. Jade Mount Everest in Kunlun Mountain

Emerald Everest is located in Xidatan, Golmud City, Qinghai Province, about 160 km away from the urban area (you will pass the Emerald Everest Observation Deck when you go to Hoh Xil). It takes more than two hours to drive to the observation deck. Also known as Coco Saijimen Peak, the highest elevation is 6178m. It is one of the six famous peaks in Qinghai Province, more than 6000 meters above sea level, and the highest peak in the east of Kunlun Mountain. It is said to be the incarnation of Princess Yuzhu.

6. Hoh Xil Nature Reserve

Hoh Xil is a transliteration of Mongolian, meaning "blue mountain", and some people call it "beautiful girl". Known by Tibetan compatriots as "A Qin Gongga", it is one of the regions with the best preserved primitive environment in the world, and it is also one of the nature reserves with the largest area, the highest altitude (above 5,000m on average) and the richest wildlife resources built in China.

It takes about 3.5 hours from Golmud to Hoh Xil, passing through the observation deck of Mount Everest, Wuji Longfeng Gong and Kunlun Mountain Pass. Our region no longer belongs to Golmud, but to Yushu Prefecture in Qinghai. But it is adjacent to Golmud, where there are more than 230 kinds of wild animals unique to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, such as wild yak, Tibetan antelope, wild donkey, white-lipped deer and brown bear. It is one of the regions rich in animal resources in China, but

7. Sanjiangyuan National Nature Reserve-Asia Water Tower

Sanjiangyuan is the first national park in China and the largest national park in the world. Located in the hinterland of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the birthplace of the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the Lancang River, it is known as "China Water Tower" and "Asia Water Tower". Moreover, the three rivers originated from the geographical wonders of the same area, which is unique in the world.

The average elevation of the source of the Three Rivers is more than 4,500 meters, and life forbidden zones over 5,000 meters abound. There are vast snowfields, many rivers, swamps and lakes, with as many as 167 lakes, with an area exceeding 1 square kilometer. These lakes are basically formed after the melting of glaciers and snow-capped mountains, and then gradually form countless small rivers, and finally flow into the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the Lancang River. We are going to the source of the Yangtze River, and the source of the Three Rivers is only a small one.

8. Kunlun Shenquan

Kunlun Shenquan, also known as Nachitai Qingquan, is located in the depths of Kunlun Mountain, known as the ancestor of Wanshan Mountain, next to the Qinghai-Tibet Highway in Nachitai Town, Golmud City, Qinghai Province, about 90 kilometers away from Golmud City. The spring water is the melted snow water of the snow peak over 5000 meters, which is filtered by the underground undercurrent. It is more than 3700 meters above sea level. Surprisingly, the spring water here keeps spewing upward in spring, summer, autumn and winter or when it is cold. Even in winter, the snow has already closed the mountain and frozen thousands of miles away, but this Nachitai Spring still spews out, so it is also called Kunlun Ice Spring.

9. Promise Longfeng Gong

Longfeng Gong, the Wuji Mountain in Kunlun Mountain, is located at the southwest of Golmud120km beside the Qinghai-Tibet Highway, which is the only way for Golmud to reach Hoh Xil. It is more than 3800 meters above sea level. According to legend, it is a place where Jiang Ziya enjoys both fame and fortune. We got off and looked at some doorways, only to see that it was under a cliff, followed by snow-capped mountains, and it was a semi-closed terrain. I feel quite "hidden wind".

10,315 Online Celebrity Highway

National Highway 3 15 starts from Xining, the capital of Qinghai Province, in the east and ends in shache county, Kashgar, Xinjiang in the west, so some people call it Xisha Line, with a total length of 3,063 kilometers. The highway extends along the edge of Taklimakan Desert at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, across Lop Nur, over Altun Mountain, across Qaidam Basin and around Qinghai Lake. Like a black ribbon, it strings together strange natural scenery such as desert, Gobi, saline-alkali beach and salt lake. The scenery is picturesque and beautiful all the way.
