🏞️Qinghai Lake, the largest saltwater lake in China, attracts countless visitors with its magnificent scenery and unique ecological environment. 🏍️Embark on a road trip and drive slowly along the lakeside road, where you can admire the emerald green waters and the blue sky reflecting each other. 🍃Along the way, you can see herds of cattle and sheep leisurely grazing on the grasslands, feeling the tranquility and harmony of nature. 🏡By the shores of Qinghai Lake, you can also experience the local customs, taste delicious Tibetan cuisine, and feel the warmth and hospitality of the Tibetan people.

Only taking into consideration that it's the biggest, it's worth visiting. Yet I think Scenic area tickets are overpriced. There's not much to do in the area apart from taking pictures, riding a boat (3 types, start from 100yuan) and feeding seagulls. Still it's worth visiting, though it feels much much better if you drive a car in Qinghai (we took a shared taxi from Xining to Qinghai lake) and overall had pretty much headache with transportation in this province. Almost all the wild areas around are privately owned and you need to pay to enter (or, say, ride a horse, 200yuan per 3km round-trip to the lake🙄). This numerous fences and herds of tourists made it difficult for me to fully enjoy the beauty of the lake and surrounding landscapes (I just ran into the mountains 😂) . Also it was pretty hard to find a hotel accommodating foreigners (beginning of August). Only Chinese food (quite pricey) Still it was a great trip, I'd like to come back driving a car😁 #qinghai #qinghailake

We spend 2.5 hours on the road to get to Qinghai Lake via Sun-moon mountain, the largest salt water lake of China. There you may feel that the air is so fresh and the sunshine is so warm it makes you feel as if you are in paradise. You can see groups of sheep, yaks, blue sky and white clouds. We dressed up in traditional Tibetan clothing and enjoyed some of the activities they had. The main scenic area we visited was the Erlangjian Scenic Area. You can enjoy the charming lake, take a boat cruise, horse riding and bike riding which is also available around the lake. #qinghailake #horseriding #tibetanculture #yak #coffee #freshair #sunshine #blueskies #xining

Chin rating (5 stars is the highest) Recommended: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Highlight recommendation🤤 - Lake Qinghai is located in the northeast of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It is the largest lake in China. It is so big that you can't see the end. Lake Qinghai has some plateau cows. Visitors can come and take pictures #doublechinlife #doublechinlife #chin #travel to the mainland #OverseasTravel

Exploring the Natural Wonders of Gansu and Qinghai, China Nestled in the northwestern part of China, Gansu and Qinghai provinces offer some of the most breathtaking and diverse landscapes in the country. These regions are less visited than other parts of China, making them perfect for travelers seeking authentic, off-the-beaten-path experiences. In Gansu, the Zhangye Danxia Landform is a must-see. Known as the “Rainbow Mountains,” this surreal landscape features multicolored rock formations created by millions of years of geological activity. The colors are especially vivid during sunrise and sunset. Gansu is also home to the ancient Mogao Caves in Dunhuang — a UNESCO World Heritage Site filled with thousands of Buddhist murals and statues, reflecting the rich cultural exchange along the Silk Road. Moving west to Qinghai, the star attraction is Qinghai Lake, the largest saltwater lake in China. Surrounded by rolling grasslands, snow-capped mountains, and fields of blooming rapeseed flowers in summer, the lake offers a peaceful retreat and is perfect for cycling or photography. Another highlight is Chaka Salt Lake, often called the “Mirror of the Sky” due to its stunning reflective surface. It’s an Instagram-worthy spot that captivates every visitor. Both provinces offer unique cultural experiences, with strong Tibetan, Hui, and Mongolian influences visible in architecture, cuisine, and local customs. The high-altitude scenery, pristine air, and spiritual atmosphere make Gansu and Qinghai ideal for nature lovers and cultural explorers alike. In short, if you’re looking for a journey through some of China’s most underrated yet extraordinary landscapes, Gansu and Qinghai should be at the top of your travel list.

Before you set off, you can check with your tour guide for more information and choose a suitable place to visit. 🔥🔥🔥If you're planning a trip to Northwest China in April or May, here's some information worth considering: 1. Entering April, the overall temperature in Northwest China rises significantly, with daytime temperatures reaching the teens or even twenties (Celsius). 2.
