Qinghai's 'Maldives', Dongtaijinaier Lake

Hey everyone, today I have to recommend a super beautiful place to you all - Dongtaijinaier Lake! This place is simply Qinghai's 'Maldives', breathtakingly beautiful! 🌈 Lake Color The color of the water in Dongtaijinaier Lake is absolutely stunning! It's a very unique Tiffany blue, crystal clear, as if a giant sapphire is embedded in the earth. Walking by the lake, it feels like being in a fairy tale world, instantly lifting your spirits! 🌸 Lakeside Scenery The scenery by the lake is also incredibly beautiful! The lakeside is covered with white salt crystals, soft underfoot, like stepping on cotton candy. Moreover, there are small sand dunes by the lake. Climbing up the dunes and overlooking the entire lake is an amazing experience! 🌈 Surrounding Attractions Besides Dongtaijinaier Lake, there are other beautiful spots nearby! For example, Wusute Water Yadan, where the Yadan landforms are faintly visible in the water, like castles on the water, very spectacular! There's also Mangya Emerald Lake, where the water presents different colors, like pieces of emerald, so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off it! 🌸 Travel Tips Best travel time: June to September, when the weather is clear and the lake's color is the most vibrant, perfect for photography! Essential items: Sunscreen, sunglasses, hat, as the UV rays by the lake are strong, so make sure to take sun protection measures! Transportation: It is recommended to drive or hire a car, as Dongtaijinaier Lake is located in the heart of the Qaidam Basin, and public transportation is not very convenient. Notes: It can be windy by the lake, so keep warm; the lake water is clear, but it is not recommended to go barefoot, you can wear waterproof shoe covers. ⚠ So, what are you waiting for? Grab your friends and go on an impromptu trip! ✈
