You can't come to the northwest without seeing Qinghai Lake and Chaka Salt Lake!

Qinghai Lake Qinghai Lake is the largest lake in China, and its Tibetan name is "Cuo Wenbu", which means "blue lake". Qinghai Lake is more than 3,200 meters above sea level, stretching 100 kilometers from east to west, about 60 kilometers wide from north to south, and an area of 4,600 square kilometers. Driving here, looking at Qinghai Lake from a distance, it feels like a large piece of darkness. During the Northern Wei Dynasty, the geographer Li Daoyuan once described Qinghai Lake in "Shui Jing Zhu" as follows: "The sea is around 750 miles, there are two mountains in the middle, facing each other from east to west, the water is clear and green, and it does not dry up or overflow in winter and summer. Looking at it from Riyue Mountain, it is like a black cloud coming slowly." Stop the car, come to the lake, and see the lake water, which is deep blue, deep blue, and invisible blue. There are many water birds on the lake, rising and falling with the waves. You can take a hot air balloon to the sky by the lake and overlook the large lake and landscape. Chaka Salt Lake Chaka Salt Lake is located in Chaka Town, Ulan County, Haixi Prefecture, Qinghai Province. "Chaka" in Tibetan means salt lake. Chaka Salt Lake is a natural crystalline salt lake and one of the four major salt lakes in the Qaidam Basin. It is famous for its rich production of "Daqing Salt". It has a mining history of more than 3,000 years and is still being mined. Chaka Salt Lake is a solid-liquid coexisting brine lake. During the day, the lake surface reflects the blue sky and white clouds, and the water and the sky are connected, reflecting each other, and it is praised as the "mirror of the sky". Tourists put on shoe covers in the scenic area and can walk in the salt lake, emptying their bodies and minds in this vast expanse of whiteness. There is a shuttle train in the scenic area that slowly travels between the salt lakes, which is also a landscape; Chaka is the first in China to create large-scale salt carving art, and its salt carving group has been recognized by the World Record Association as the world's largest outdoor salt carving art group. Salt lakes are landscapes in a few areas. The trip to Chaka exceeded the original expectations and is worth recommending.
