I want to go to Qinghai Lake around August 15, and I will have a holiday of 10. How to arrange it? Comrades, give some good advice ~
On your first day in Xining, I suggest you visit the mosque, Shuijing Lane and Ma Bufang Mansion in the east of the city. This is not a feature, but people who generally live in plains and basins will feel altitude sickness to a greater or lesser extent when they reach the plateau above 2000 meters above sea level, and they will have symptoms such as dizziness and nausea, or they are prone to catch a cold due to the large temperature difference between morning and evening. These are normal phenomena, so don't worry, a very simple solution can be solved: just take an aspirin. At the same time, you can use this day to eat snacks in Xining! I recommend you to try authentic Tibetan food at the "Suu Kyi Nyima Palace" near the central square. It's great. Of course, people here have the habit of eating barbecue at night. After the evening activities, you can go to the Salar barbecue stall to eat barbecue and highland barley.
On the second and third days, I suggest going to Qinghai Lake and Bird Island first. It is important to appreciate the scenery along the way. You will go through the vast virgin forest and climb the Sun Moon Mountain (where Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty entered Tibet to rest). After going down the mountain, you can see the vast grass beach, and cattle and sheep look at the stars from a distance ... It's half an hour's journey to Qinghai Lake and you will see the most famous scenery: rape blossoms in Huang Cancan are nearby, a little far away. It is recommended to stay there for one night, where you can eat yellow croaker dinner and pure yak yogurt!
On the fourth day, I returned to Ta 'er Temple via Xining. If you are not interested in historical sites and Buddhism, you may not go at all. On the contrary, if you are interested in humanities, it is necessary to visit it, because its position in Tibetan Buddhism is second only to the Potala Palace in Lhasa, and many Tibetans have made pilgrimage there their lifelong goal.
On the fifth day, I went to Maixiu Primitive Forest near Huangnan Prefecture, more than 200 kilometers away from Xining. You can see wild boar, squirrel, antelope and fox, all of which are wild! Take a hot spring bath and stay in a tent hotel at night. If you meet the annual grassland festival, there will be a lot of fun! There will be a delay of about two days.
On the seventh day, I went to Tianchi, Mengda. Live in Xunhua County at night and watch the stars. It is said that watching the stars in the summer night there is the closest and clearest to the sky, and I can see the Milky Way!
On the eighth day, I went to Huzhu Tuzu Township in Haidong area, where I could see the local customs.
Go back to Xining for rest in the ninth and tenth days.
If you want to shorten the travel time to Tibet, you'd better book a personal tour group in Xining, with a total time of about five days. It's a pity that Qinghai can't go to Tibet.
