🌍 Exploring Wusute Water Yadan, the dream miracle of northwest of Shanghai This Qinggan Great Ring Road trip, Wusute Water Yadan Geopark is definitely the most amazing stop for me! 🚗 Transportation and itinerary: From Xining, all the way west, through the vast and endless Gobi desert, the scenery along the way has made me full of expectations for the destination. When the car slowly drove into the vicinity of the scenic spot, you could see the picture of the magical waters and the Yadan landform from a distance, and the heart was instantly choked. 🎫 Tickets and scenic facilities: The ticket price includes sightseeing tickets, which is reasonable. The sightseeing bus route planning in the scenic area is very clear, and the site setting is just right, and it is easy to reach the main observation decks. However, there are many tourists during the peak tourist season, and it takes some patience to wait in line. 🏞️ scenery: The moment I stepped into the scenic spot, I seemed to have entered another planet by mistake. The blue gem-like lake, sparkling under the sun, and the Yadan landform standing on the lake, in different shapes, some like mysterious castles, some like spirit animals, and some like expeditionary fleets, nature's ghostly work is displayed here. Walk along the plank road, enjoy the water Yadan up close, you can see the traces of wind erosion, touch the texture of the years. The light from different angles makes Yadan and the lake change different colors, sometimes golden, sometimes blue, each step is a beautiful picture. In the evening, the embers of the sunset were sprinkled on this magical land, and the whole world was dyed warm tones. The water Yadan was more magnificent in the embers. At this time, taking pictures, Zhang Zhang is a blockbuster! 🤸‍♀️ Play projects: The scenic area is rich in play projects and the experience is full. I took a speedboat, galloped on the lake, felt the roar of the wind, and watched the cliffs of Yadan up close; I also tried desert go-karts, and enjoyed the speed and passion on the Gobi. In addition, the camel riding project is not to be missed. Cycling slowly on the edge of the desert, as if crossing the Silk Road. 💡 Intimate tips: 1. Be sure to bring sun protection equipment, the ultraviolet rays here are very strong. 2. There are more mosquitoes, especially in the evening, remember to bring mosquito repellent supplies. 3. Aerial photography can take the whole picture and shock of the water Yadan, and friends with drones must not miss it. 4. The dining options in the scenic area are limited, and you can bring some small snacks and drinking water. Wusute Water Yadan Geopark is a treasure given by nature to the world.

Dongtai Jinel Lake is located in Golmud City, Haixi Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province. The lake shimmers in the sun, revealing a unique blue, endless, empty and mysterious. There is no sign of disappearing or appearing, it is a drop of God's "blue tears". Very suitable for punching in and taking pictures. In the past decade, Dongtai Jinel Lake has disappeared many times. After 3 years, it appeared in Gobi like a mirage. The distinctive Tiffany Blue is mainly derived from lithium salt. It is inconvenient to go to Dongtai and it is best to drive by yourself.

This time I traveled along the coast to the west. I saw on the Internet that Queen Mother Yaochi is a must-visit attraction when going to Golmud. Because I heard that the road in the past was very bad, it took six hours to walk a hundred kilometers, so I went there with the mentality of giving it a try. I didn't expect that after I went there, I found that the road was repaired. It was a two-lane asphalt road. It started from Wuji Longfeng Palace and went west all the way. There was no speed limit throughout the journey (but it was best to drive 80 miles per hour). The tourist attractions on the road were all under construction. I didn't see people and cars along the way. The end of the road was Queen Mother Yaochi. As for the scenery, it was amazing. There were snow-capped mountains all the way, and I saw Tibetan antelopes and wild donkeys. I gave up the Tibetan antelope viewing platform in Kekexili later because I saw them here. The only shortcoming was that after arriving at Queen Mother Yaochi, I didn't stop the car, walked around, and left directly. The reason was that there were so many mosquitoes under the sun in the daytime that they stopped on the car windows. I was scared and left immediately and didn't dare to get off the car. Fortunately, the scenery on the way there was amazing, and you could stop and take a rest (no mosquitoes). Except for mosquitoes, everything else was good. Recommended! ! !
