Xining, Qinghai Province, from Hong Kong to Hefei and then directly to Xining, a place with a very high altitude, the weather in July is also the highest in the whole year, only about 25 degrees, and even lower at night, so locals don’t need to install air conditioners in their homes. There are many museums here, and it takes half a day to visit a museum! And the flowers in the city are also very beautiful now! After visiting Xining, we will go to Yushu!
