Wusute Water Yadan | You must see the gradually disappearing water yadan!

| You must see the gradually disappearing water yadan! Water Yadan, also known as Wusute Yadan Geological Park, is located in Xitai District, Dachaidan Administrative Committee, Haixi Prefecture, Qinghai Province. It is one of the largest and most spectacular water yadan communities in the world. The area of this yadan community is about 21,000 square kilometers, and the height of the earth mound is between 10-25 meters, up to 50 meters. It is called "Lake of Thousands of Birds and Thousands of Islands" by the locals, because every spring and autumn, groups of water birds and wild ducks 🦆 will play and chase here 🌊. "Yadan" is Uighur, meaning "a small hill with steep walls", also known as "wind erosion forest", which is a strange wind erosion landform. Due to billions of years of geological changes, the exposed Tertiary strata that have risen due to folding and broken due to fractures have formed various residual hills and trough-shaped lowlands under the long-term action of external forces. 🕑Time: 8:00-19:00 🎫Tickets: Adults 60r Children Students 30r, 🚗Sightseeing car: Round trip 60r There are 4 stops in the middle to stop, in fact, the scenery is similar, it is recommended to go directly to the last one, there is a viewing platform after getting off the car to overlook the panoramic view of the water yadan landform. The water yadan is darker than other salt lakes, and the overall presentation is a quiet dark blue. Here, the Gobi and the lake coexist. Compared with ordinary yadan landforms, the rate of extinction is faster due to the influence of water erosion. 📢Tips · Cowboy style, wasteland style is very good here, in short, it must be cool · There are many bugs, the air is full of flying bugs and mosquitoes. You must bring mosquito repellent water. If your skin is sensitive, you should wear a mask and sunscreen. · The wind and sand are big, bring hats, scarves and shawls. If you are not careful, you will be blown away. · The sun is very hot, the ultraviolet rays in the northwest will make people black in one day. Sunscreen should be applied thickly, but it is best to use hard sunscreen. Ultraviolet rays are really everywhere.
