The nature reserve is located in the transition zone from the Loess Plateau to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, with loess hills, steep slopes, cliffs and narrow valleys in a V shape. Because the peaks around the scenic spot are protruding, the invasion of dry and cold airflow is weakened, and it meets the southeast airflow, so the climate in the area is mild. The average annual temperature is 5.4 degrees Celsius. The altitude difference is quite large, which makes the climate warm and cold. The annual precipitation is 622.7mm, and the precipitation from May to September accounts for 89% of the annual precipitation.

The plateau with mountains and basins is rich in underground mineral resources, such as Qilian Mountain, which is known as Wanbaoshan and Qaidam, and is called cornucopia.

Qilian Mountain, located on the northeast edge of the plateau, contains pyrite, chromite, copper, lead, zinc, nickel, phosphorus and rare earth elements such as cerium, lanthanum and yttrium. Jingtieshan Iron Mine is the raw material base of jiuquan iron and steel enterprises. Lead-zinc mines such as Guomisi in Qilian County contain useful elements such as gold, silver, antimony, gallium and selenium. Datong River Basin has very large coal reserves, which is called Qinghai Black Belt. Gypsum and mirabilite near Xining have large reserves and good quality.

Qi is famous at home and abroad. The luminous cup made by William Wang, a poet in Tang Dynasty, in Liangshan Ci is made of jade from Qilian Mountain, which has become a world-famous wine container.

Along the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, from Lhasa-Nimu-Yangbajing-Naqu-Cuona Lake-Hot Springs, there are abundant high-temperature geothermal resources. At present, there are more than 20 geothermal sites and 12 geothermal fields with a certain scale, which is the area with the most concentrated geothermal reserves in Tibet. This will provide conditions for power supply to passenger stations and areas along the railway in the future, and will effectively improve and alleviate the current situation of power shortage in central Tibet.

It is self-evident that the air in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is thin. As for the annual sunshine hours, due to the low latitude of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, sunny days account for most of the year, so the annual sunshine hours are naturally more. In addition, solar energy resources are not necessarily related to temperature. For example, in Hainan, there are many rainy days, and the solar energy resources are far less than the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau at an altitude of 1000 meters. The terrain is relatively flat and there are no obstacles; The ground is mostly grassland, with little fluctuation; The temperature difference between day and night makes the airflow stronger. The above reasons make the wind resources in Qinghai-Tibet region particularly rich. The sacred, magical and mysterious Qinghai-Tibet Plateau attracts the world's attention with its unique charm.

Unique history and culture, rich ethnic customs, majestic mountains and lakes and rich plateau ecology endow Qinghai with unique tourism resources. In addition to the unique natural and cultural landscape, the emergence of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway is also full of suspense. After the opening of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, it is like a golden link connecting the magical and beautiful landscape on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. A unique boutique tourism belt of Qinghai-Tibet Railway will be presented to the world. There are nine world-class tourism resources along the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, including Qinghai Lake, Hoh Xil Nature Reserve, Namco and Potala Palace. Including 23 national tourism resources such as Ta 'er Temple, Jinyintan atomic city, Chaerhan Salt Lake, Mount Everest, Lhasa Ancient City and Barkhor Street, 6 national nature reserves and scenic spots, and 193 general tourism resources.
