Qinghai Ring Road 8 days
The journey to Qinghai is an encounter with clear nature. Morning to see Qinghai Lake sunrise dyed gold waves, lake seagulls skim water, shore rape sea (summer) spread into a yellow blanket even the sky; afternoon tour Chaka Salt Lake, barefoot stepping on salt flats,”sky mirror” reflects snow mountains and clouds shadow, as if stepping on the sky; evening stay Qilian grassland, listen to the bell sound of cattle and sheep returning to the fence, wind wrapped in grass fragrance across the tent. Once in a while, I went to Tibet Stronghold to drink a bowl of hot butter tea and taste sour yogurt. Along the way, prayer flags fluttered. Every glance was vast and gentle. In just a few days, it was full of pure memories of plateau.
