Qinghai Lake is absolutely divine!! A breathtakingly beautiful fairy-tale lake

Sisters! Trust me!! You must visit Qinghai Lake at least once in your lifetime!💙 Just got back and my soul is still floating on the lake!! The water is so blue it looks like it's filtered! Yaks strolling on the grasslands🦬, rapeseed flowers stretching to the horizon🌼, clouds so low you can almost touch them☁️... This city worker was instantly healed!! (Fervently recommending face) --- 🚗 My 2-day 1-night lazy itinerary (copy this!): ✅ Day1: Xining → Qinghai Lake → Chaka Salt Lake ▪️ Morning carpool from Xining (150💰 per person, super easy to book!) ▪️ Head straight to #Qinghai Lake Erlangjian Scenic Area! Ticket 90🎫 👉 Key tip!! Don't crowd at the main entrance! Ask the driver to go to "Nanshan Viewing Platform" (free!) ✨ Overlooking the entire sapphire lake + snow mountains, so stunning it leaves you speechless!! (Check my pic in Figure 2!) ▪️ Afternoon dash to #ChakaSaltLake (lives up to its "Mirror of the Sky" reputation!) 👗 Wear bright-colored dresses! Red/yellow are super photogenic! ⚠️ Don't go barefoot! Salt crystals hurt! Rent boots for 10¥/pair~ ✅ Day2: West Lake Ring Road → Gangcha Grassland → Xining ▪️ Early morning cycling along West Lake Ring Road!🚲 (50¥/hour rental) Lakeshore + prayer flags + wildflowers, every shot looks cinematic! (My cycling pic in Figure 5 got tons of praise) ▪️ Stop at Gangcha Grassland on return, take photos with gentle lambs🐑~ (Locals are super nice, 10¥ for unlimited photos📸) --- 🍜 Foodie radar activated! 🔥 Must-eat list⬇️ ▪️ Kangguo lamb! Potatoes tastier than the meat! ▪️ Yak yogurt! Sprinkle sugar for perfect sweet-sour balance~ ▪️ Highland barley bread! Best eaten hot and crispy! 📍Recommend: Xining's "Ma Yidao BBQ" - 60¥ per person for a feast! --- ⚠️ Hard-earned tips: 1️⃣ SUNSCREEN! SUNSCREEN! SUNSCREEN!☀️ (UV rays will teach you a lesson! Keep hats/glasses glued to your face!) 2️⃣ Huge temperature difference! Bring a windbreaker/light down even in July! 3️⃣ Chaka Salt Lake has softest light before 10am/after 4pm, midday reflections are blinding! 4️⃣ Skip souvenir shops! Handmade shawls from local herders for 50¥ are better~ --- 📌 Lazy package: 🏠 Stay: Heimahe Town (perfect for sunrise views!) 🚗 Transport: Carpool/charter most convenient (500¥ daily for 4-person car) 💊 Altitude: Qinghai Lake's 3100m barely noticeable, bring glucose just in case~
