Xiaochaidan Lake, also known as Xiaochaidan Lake, is located on the east side of the Xiaochaidan transportation hub of Haixi Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Qinghai Province, belonging to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The water of Xiaochaidan Lake is blue and clear, and the environment is beautiful. It is in stark contrast to the Gobi Beach on the opposite side. The car passing by here must visit and punch in.

💙 On the way from Delingha to Cha'erhan Salt Lake, I was confused and didn't know how long it took, and I shuttled through a piece of stone sand mountain that was not born with an inch of grass, and I met Xiaochaidan Lake. 💙 Seeing a blue in the vast Gobi is a very pleasing thing. Xiaochaidan Lake seems to be a sapphire in Gobi. Not amazing, but very eye-catching, people are happy. 💙 Maybe the weather is not very good, there is still a trace of white fog on the quiet lake that is not scattered, which leaks a little ethereal and a little otherworldly. But the lake is not very blue, with a little tan, P4 is a direct picture of the drone. Qinggan came back in a circle and found that this lake is the most distinctive, but the moment I came here through Gobi, I was still happy. 💙 Finally, this lake is a free attraction, there is no parking space, there is an open space on the side of the road to stop. It is not necessary to come here deliberately, just stop by when passing by.

Little Chaidamu Lake is not a salt lake, it looks like a calm sea, the lake looks crystal clear! And you will see Chimae duck, spotted scorpion, gray-necked cranes hovering and flying by the lake.

7月19日早晨，我们告别大柴旦，前往乌素特水上雅丹。大柴旦到水上雅丹有两条路，一条是S314转G215，再转G315，全程225公里，无收费，路上有大柴旦雅丹魔鬼城、南八仙雅丹地貌等看点；另一条是走柳格高速转G315，全程216公里，同样无收费。路上有小柴达木湖、U形天路、陆上雅丹地貌等看点。 为此，我们决定，今天走柳格高速转G315进乌素特水上雅丹，明天出乌素特水上雅丹去冷湖镇再走G315转G215。全程不走重复路，两条路上的风景都不错过。 驶出大柴旦就是一片苍茫，起伏不定的莽原上看不到一点绿色。面对不毛之地，我们敬畏上天的造化、更敬畏我中华之先人，正是有了他们的世代接力，才有了戈壁上的片片绿洲，使得我们来此旅行是如此地便捷！ 沿着柳格高速向南行驶不到一小时，就到了著名的小柴达木湖。小柴达木湖地处德小高速和柳格高速十字路口，这里向南60公里就是我国最大的盐湖——察尔汗盐湖，据说，它蕴藏的盐量足够全世界食用600年；西连接著名的G315，G315东起西宁，横贯青海，向西穿越塔里木到新疆和田的莎车。沿途风光绮丽，地貌奇特，一路串连了诸多地理网红新秀，是一条名副其实的景观大道。 小柴达木湖又称小柴旦湖，湖面69平方公里，是大柴旦境内最大的咸水湖。它与大柴达木湖有“一山隔两湖”之称。饶有趣味的是，小柴旦湖却比大柴旦湖要大，故有“大柴旦湖不大，小柴旦湖不小”之说。 　　青海柴达木盐湖众多，许多虽然算不上景点，但这些湖泊很有特色，每当天气晴好无风，每天早晨或黄昏，这些盐湖就会水如镜面，以山为景，水天一色，景色亦真亦幻。 小柴旦湖也是一座咸水湖，由于它周边人迹罕至，茫茫戈壁之上，远看它就像一片绿洲。更为奇特的是，每逢季节交替，天气变化、不同的时间段，小柴旦湖会呈现不同的色彩，每当风平浪静，湖面就会雪山群峰和蓝天白云倒映，仿佛一幅画卷。 我们到达小柴旦湖当天，风很大，天气也不好。眼前的小柴旦湖并不出彩，但人们在茫茫戈壁能相遇一方碧水，自然也会情趣盎然。此刻，站在这个风高浪涌的大湖边，以雪山昆仑为盟，以高原的云和风为证，人们都竞相在此留下一份属于自己的记忆！ 据说，如果运气好，每逢大浪淘沙之后，小柴旦湖的岸边就能捡到昆仑玉之类的宝石，还是那句话，信不信由你。今天，这里确有许多“淘宝人”。我们随即加入其中，可在此寻寻觅觅，最终也没看见宝石的模样！ 小柴旦湖一景。

The small Chaidan Lake next to the Dexiao Highway, the scenery is beautiful, it is simply.
