How about traveling in Qinghai? Is Qinghai tourism fun?

It is more appropriate to arrive at 10 every May. Qinghai belongs to the plateau continental climate, and there is dust pollution in spring and autumn, resulting in dust weather. In July, the lake in Qinghai is full of rape flowers, yellow flowers and endless blue lake water, and the scenery is beautiful. At that time, the temperature did not exceed 18 degrees Celsius, and the climate was comfortable and pleasant. The average minimum temperature in winter in Qinghai can reach -20 degrees Celsius, and the maximum temperature is only -7 degrees Celsius, which is very cold. However, there will be more traditional activities in temples and rural areas in Qinghai in winter, and many tourists choose to wear thick down jackets to visit Ta 'er Temple on the 15th day of the first month.

July and August are the best time to go to Qinghai Lake. Rape flowers are in full bloom in a large area, and the yellow sea of flowers is accompanied by an endless blue lake, with excellent scenery. The annual cycling race around the lake was also held at that time. April and May, although the grassland is not green yet, is the best season for bird watching island. The island is full of eggs and birds, which is very lively. If you want to see the swan, it will come in 1 1 month.

From February to April every year, there are more days of strong winds and sandstorms in the lake area. It is windy in the afternoon and evening, and the northwest wind prevails. The extreme minimum temperature of Qinghai Lake in winter is more than 30 degrees below zero, so it needs to keep warm.

Dressing skills

Don't forget to keep out the cold in any season. A rain near Qinghai Lake can make the temperature plummet. Even in the midsummer of July and August, the temperature may be lower than 10 degrees. Therefore, it is essential to keep warm and windproof coats, and it is not an exaggeration to bring down jackets and cotton-padded jackets.

Riding skills

The cycling route around Qinghai Lake has excellent road conditions, and the requirements for physical strength, cycling technology and equipment are not very high. As long as you are healthy, men, women and children with exercise habits can be competent. If you are purely interested in scenery, there is no need to ride every section of the road seriously. You can take the shuttle bus halfway, saving time and effort and living in a place with more beautiful scenery. Besides paying the fare, you also need to add some money to your bike when you pick up steamed buns on the way.

About altitude sickness

The average elevation of Qinghai Lake is 3000 meters. Some people will have altitude sickness symptoms above 3000 meters above sea level, such as dizziness, headache, general weakness, insomnia and so on. Mild hyperreflexia usually disappears within 1-2 days as the body adapts to altitude.

For altitude sickness, we have the following suggestions:

1. Smoking and drinking are prohibited before departure to avoid fatigue. You can take preventive drugs such as rhodiola a few days in advance. It is not advisable to go to plateau areas during a cold, which may easily lead to pulmonary edema.

2. Do not need physical exercise, eat more fruits and vegetables and drink more water to ensure sleep and relaxation.

3. Mild altitude sickness will gradually heal itself as the body adapts to the altitude, so don't take oxygen easily to avoid dependence on oxygen bottles. You can take high Yu Anan or American ginseng to relieve it.

4. Avoid running, jumping and jumping when passing through high-altitude sections.

Beware of wolves when camping at night (according to Tibetans, there are wolves in the east of the lake), and beware of dogs when approaching herdsmen's homes. There is no habit of tying dogs locally.

Don't wander around the grassland, because Qinghai Lake is mainly a wetland, and there are swamps in many places. Don't venture near the lake easily.

Don't swim in the lake. Qinghai Lake is a sacred lake for Tibetans. The temperature of the lake is relatively low and it is easy to catch a cold.

7. The meadow between the highway and the lakeshore is often surrounded by barbed wire. In principle, outsiders are not allowed in. If you want to enter the lake through the dividing line, you'd better get the consent of the local people.

8. There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening, so you need to add or subtract clothes at any time. Check the weather forecast before you go out. In July and August, there are frequent rainstorms and hail, and the wind is fierce. Raincoats need to be prepared, and pants and waterproof shoes are best prepared.
