Hey friends! Let's explore the beauty of Qinghai together during the Qingming Festival! Here's a two-day itinerary for Qinghai Lake, Chaka Salt Lake, and Riyue Mountain. Save it now! 🚩Itinerary at a Glance: D1️⃣: Riyue Mountain—Dao Tang River—Erlangjian Scenic Area of Qinghai Lake Starting from the mystical Riyue Mountain, we'll explore the unique beauty of Dao Tang River and finally arrive at the magnificent Erlangjian Scenic Area of Qinghai Lake to enjoy the stunning lake and mountain scenery. D2️⃣: Chaka Salt Lake—Jinsha Bay Nature Reserve of Qinghai Lake—Jinyintan Grassland On the second day, we'll head to the dreamlike Chaka Salt Lake, then visit the pristine Jinsha Bay Nature Reserve of Qinghai Lake, and finally experience the tranquility and harmony of nature at Jinyintan Grassland. Recommended Attractions: 🏞️ Chaka Salt Lake: The salt is as white as snow, and the lake surface is like a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds. It's incredibly pure. 🌊 Erlangjian Scenic Area of Qinghai Lake: A sharp peninsula stretching for over ten kilometers, like a sharp sword unsheathed, thrusting straight into the heart of the lake. 🏔️ Riyue Mountain: A legendary mystical place with rolling mountains and colorful prayer flags fluttering in the wind. 🌸 Jinyintan Grassland: Golden and white flowers intertwine, resembling a beautiful tapestry of nature. 🎒 Travel Essentials for Qinghai Lake, Chaka Salt Lake, and Riyue Mountain: 👚 Clothing: Pack light and breathable sportswear, a windproof and warm jacket, a scarf, and a hat. The weather in March is moderate but changeable, so be prepared. 📸 Accessories: Sunglasses and sunscreen are essential. The UV rays are strong at Chaka Salt Lake, so protecting your eyes and skin is crucial. Also, don't forget your charging cable and power bank. 🆔 Documents: Be sure to bring your ID card. If you have a student ID, senior citizen card, or other discount cards, bring them along to save money on tickets. 💊 Medicine: Pack common medications like cold and stomach medicine. It's also recommended to bring altitude sickness medication, such as Rhodiola, just in case. I hope these suggestions are helpful. Have a wonderful trip! 🎉 Explore Qinghai Lake, Chaka Salt Lake, and Riyue Mountain, and take in all the beautiful scenery. Don't forget to share your travel stories!
