Personally, I think qinghai is a very worthwhile place to visit. First of all, although it is relatively remote compared with many other places, qinghai's scenery is always so different because of its location on the qinghai-tibet plateau and natural conditions.Ma has been to qinghai five times, so here are the basics.
Where to go:
Qinghai's tourism resources are quite rich, both natural landscape, and cultural customs, but also can see a lot of religious culture, such as mosques, Tibetan monasteries, at least have to play for seven days.
If you are interested in the natural landscape, qinghai lake, chaka salt lake, qilian mountain and menyuan mountain are the most important places to miss.
The specific route can start from xining, and along the way, you can go from the ta 'er temple, riyue mountain, daotang river, erlangjian, hema river, chaka salt lake, menyuan and qilian mountain.It takes about five days to follow the route, and only those who have been there know the natural scenery.
If like religion and the humanities, is not to be missed kumbum monastery and long service temple, are two monasteries in Tibet and has a very high position, the kumbum monastery is famous, travel more convenient, kumbum monastery buildings are very distinctive, Tibetan temple architecture, and by the kumbum monastery is also is not to be missed murals, butter sculpture, barbola.
And if you want a temple that is a little more niche, then be sure to go to longwu temple, which is a 3-hour journey from downtown xining. Although 3 hours is not far in the northwest, it seems more niche and natural compared to the temple of tal.
How to have qinghai:
There are three ways to travel in qinghai. The first way is by tour bus. Most scenic spots in qinghai have direct buses.
The second way is carpooling or chartered bus,
which is also chosen by many people. Compared with buses, chartered buses have more freedom. They can stop and go along the way and take photos.If it is not the peak season, carpool generally a person 150 yuan a day, in xining a lot of places will have charter car place, but must ask good price before charter car.
The third kind, is driving, this way is also very suitable for outdoor travel, but relatively speaking the cost will be much higher, and the plateau driving is very tired, so act within one's capacity.
