Northwest Loop | Bicolor Lake: This Road on the Water is So Beautiful!

Northwest Loop | Bicolor Lake: This Road on the Water is So Beautiful!❗️ The road on the water is located between Mangya and Yadan on National Highway 315 (you will also pass this section of the road on Mars Highway 1), which is the Bicolor Lake (Xitaijinai'er Lake) on the Qinghai-Gansu Loop. The water section is about 10 km long, with many large vehicles and poor road conditions, which is quite bumpy. It is only a few kilometers away from Yadan, but it is often missed. When the drone takes off, you will see G315 divide it into two. One side is green and the other side is blue. 💰Free admission. ⛽️There are gas stations along the way. 🌞Be sure to protect yourself from the sun, as the UV rays are too strong. 👔The temperature difference between morning and evening is large, so be sure to bring warm clothes and keep warm when resting. 🕑The best time to visit is from May to October every year, when the lake is at its most beautiful! 🍜It is best to bring your favorite snacks. There are restaurants along the way, but they are expensive and not very tasty. 📶The signal is poor, so remember to download offline maps in advance (China Mobile is slightly better, China Telecom/China Unicom is weaker). ⚠️TIPS: 1️⃣Wear comfortable shoes with thick soles. 2️⃣Do not go into the water. Although it is beautiful, the lake water is very corrosive. If you want to go into the water, be sure to prepare shoe covers. 3️⃣Sun protection! Sun protection! Sun protection! The UV rays are very strong. 4️⃣Fences are currently being built, so you may not be allowed in later. Go early and enjoy it early!
