Introduction to Chaka Salt Lake Tour

Chaka Salt Lake is located in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, where the natural environment and ecosystem have maintained their original features. The clean sky, fresh air, pure lake water and various vibrant animals and plants make you closer to nature. Here, I will share with you the road trip Raiders of Chaka Salt Lake.

With longing for uyuni Salt Lake, I went to Chaka Salt Lake, the "mirror of the sky" in China.

1, route overview route: Ta 'er Temple → Sun Moon Mountain, Daotang River → Qinghai Lake (Erlangjian Scenic Area) → Bird Island → Jinyintan Grassland → Chaka Salt Lake.

2, detailed travel notes After all, the southern hemisphere is a bit far, but my northwest is within reach. On this trip around the northwest, tea card is my most anticipated stop.

The weather is not very sunny, and I'm afraid it will rain at any time. Maybe I didn't catch up with its most beautiful season and didn't come here at its most beautiful time.

Sitting on the small train in the scenic spot and pushing into the middle of the lake, I still can't help but admire the incredible imagination of the creator and inadvertently create such a beautiful place on this barren plateau.

The salt lake I see in my eyes is not the clear picture reflected in a mirror in the photo.

On the contrary, there is a white scene described in A Dream of Red Mansions. There is no sadness in the tone, only purity and tranquility.

When I was a child, I always fantasized that I must hold a person's hand and travel all over Qian Shan. The man also promised to take me around the world.

Ironically, we have never been out of town together. The vision of traveling hand in hand with the world is beautiful, but the hand is not so firm.

If you want to travel all over Qian Shan, you still have to rely on your own feet. Just leave. You don't care who you are with, but indulge in the scenery far away on the road.

Don't be the child waiting for someone to give you candy, to discover and discover the little sweetness of life. Traveling is by no means simply going from one place to another. This is a kind of spiritual practice.

The world is very big, and the place where we live is just a dot on the map. How can I make my life just linger at that little point? I want to start constantly, draw a line one by one, and blend into my unique life track.

Next stop, where to go?

This trip, the preparation was a little hasty, coupled with procrastination and lazy cancer, many necessary equipment were not brought at last. Including the camera, I had to shoot each other with my mobile phone.

Because the scenery is good enough, the effect of a casual shot is ok. It was a little cold, and I wore a black winter coat by mistake, which didn't match the pure jade temperament of Salt Lake at all.

Fortunately, a Burgundy shawl used to keep warm was saved, wrapped in a big shawl, and immediately integrated into the atmosphere of the salt lake. This is another way to do as the Romans do.

Therefore, when you go to a place, you still have to do more homework. The thickness of clothes is very important, so is the harmony between color and surrounding environment. In this way, we can take beautiful photos and increase the fun of traveling.

If it is a travel photo shoot, if it is not a professional and stubborn alternative blockbuster. It is recommended to wear brightly colored clothes and knock on the small blackboard. It must be bright and lively, so it is neither abrupt nor prominent.

For example: red and white, the effect is good. Don't pursue perfect travel, just try to constantly expand your understanding of the world.

Chaka Salt Lake is about to cry! Clear lake water and sky are inseparable, but to capture the sky, the weather should be clear first, and then the best month of Chaka Salt Lake should be known, May-10. Time: Around 10 and 4 pm in a day, the light is too strong at noon and too weak at night. On a cloudy day, the light is too strong to see the reflection. When there is wind, the water is uneven and can't be reflected. Water depth, insufficient refraction angle and unclear reflection. When there are many people, the water will become turbid and ugly. So just take pictures when there are few people along the railway track until you reach the depths of the salt lake.

The scenery of Chaka Salt Lake is so beautiful. Follow the train track to the center of the lake, where the lake is extremely shallow, less than 10 cm. The salt at the bottom of the lake is white as snow and smooth as a mirror. Standing barefoot on it, it feels very cool and delicate, and the photo effect is excellent. White clouds in the sky and distant mountains appear on the lake together with tourists' reflections, just like in a mirror. Down to the lake, there is more gravel on the shore, so it is easier to walk in sandals, and you will be fine in the middle of the lake. But pay attention to some hidden caves under your feet. The darker the feet, the easier it is to have holes, and the clothes will suffer if they are stuck in.

During the peak season, I will go with the group to meet many people. It is best to travel by yourself. I will stay in Chaka Salt Lake 1 day and spend the night. I can arrive at noon, and the best time to shoot in the salt lake is at night. You can look at the stars and shoot the stars at night, but you should keep warm. Even in July, it will still be very cold at night.

Laughed.

I hesitated about going to the lake or not. I can't bear to get involved in it, for fear of doing some harm to this whiteness and innocence.

The scenic spot managers didn't ban the water, just didn't let tourists wear shoes. Perhaps, going on will not cause any damage to the salt lake ecology, and we can only comfort ourselves.

After all, I couldn't resist the temptation of beauty, so I took off my shoes and socks and had a close contact with Salt Lake. The water is a little cold, it's no big deal. It's a bit extravagant to step on all the big salt grains of glistening.

Walking towards the middle of the lake feels different from the shore. The dividing line between the sky and the earth is only a slightly dark line, and the sky and the lake set each other off.

Walking into the lake is like walking into a pure white dream, as if both body and mind can melt into pure white and soft silence, and people become extremely calm.

This scene is like a paradise in a movie. If it weren't for the pain caused by the salt particles under your feet, you would really be lost in pure white.

Standing in the middle of salt

It has not failed me, and it has gone through the wind and frost all the way. Me, too, don't ask it to show me the most beautiful side. Therefore, it is good for both sides to have fun!

3, pay attention to tips Chaka Salt Lake is an inflow lake, so the place you step on is not easy to know, it is best to go to an unmanned place.

Bright colors should be matched with a scarf, which will look better and protect you from the sun.

The farther you go, the fewer tourists there will be, and the whole salt lake will be unobstructed, and the photo effect will be better.

Admission 50 yuan/person.
