CHRISTIAN CONNER

You should visit Qinghai Lake at least twice a year

After a night of snowfall in Chaka Town❄️, what would have been a 2-hour journey over Rubber Mountain🚗 to reach Qinghai Lake turned into a 3.5-hour detour via the Jingzang Expressway. During this season, there are very few tour groups and self-driving tourists, making it much quieter, and there's no need to worry about accommodation, tickets, or dining anymore~ The water of Qinghai Lake is very clear. On a good day, it really resembles the sea🌊 with its azure blue beauty, very pleasing to the eye❗️ In the distance, there are snow-capped mountains, and the diverse natural scenery is indescribably beautiful~ ⚠️Important notes: 1⃣️ Parking is prohibited at random on the Qinghai Lake ring road. Self-driving friends should pay attention. 2⃣️ There are many herders' pastures along the way, so drive slowly and carefully. Avoid hitting cattle and sheep that may dart out. 3⃣️ Qinghai Lake is over 3000 meters above sea level. Be sure to walk slowly. 4⃣️ The ultraviolet rays are strong and the temperature difference is large. Make sure to protect yourself from the sun and keep warm. 5⃣️ You can bring some small bread. It's possible to feed the seagulls.
