I have a map on the wall with a five-pointed star, only Qinghai Province has fewer. Although I went there three times in 1999, 2006, and 2018, they were all superficial and did not go deep into it. I searched the Internet and saw that there was an eight-day in-depth tour, so I invited my brothers to participate together. Departure on August 6th, take the train Z376 from Shanghai to Xining, and arrive in Xining 3 hours late, so the planned Dongguan Mosque and Nanshan Observation Deck did not go, I just took time to visit my relatives in Xining .

Today's itinerary: Xining - Chaka - Delingha. The driver, Master Li, chose Huanhu West Road to avoid repeating the old road on the return trip, so we had to travel 150 kilometers longer than the other two cars, and we also went to Huangyuan Atomic City, Huangyu Migratory Place, and Daodao. It was 4:00 p.m. for lunch, 4:30 p.m. to enter Chaka Salt Lake Scenic Area, 8:00 p.m. to leave the scenic area, and 10:00 p.m. to Delingha. Accommodation: Delingha Huayu Hotel.

Today's itinerary: Delingha - Chaerhan Salt Lake - Dongtai Jinel Lake - Yadan on the water. Chahu Lake is near Golmud. It is the largest salt lake in China. It is composed of multiple salt ponds with billions of tons of reserves. It is also a salt chemical base and the hometown of potash fertilizer in China. Then turn back 100 kilometers, follow National Highway 315 to Dongtai Jinel Lake in Qaidam Basin, and then go to Wusut Water Yadan Scenic Area 45 kilometers away.

Today's itinerary: Water Danxia - Xitai Jinel Lake - Aiken Spring - Huamugou. Today's journey is longer. Huamugou Town is the administrative seat of Mangya City, which is close to Xinjiang, so the epidemic prevention measures are relatively strict. Aiken Spring is located deep in the Gobi, and the road is relatively difficult. This is a spectacle. Seen from the sky, the spring looks emerald, which contrasts with the surrounding rocks, like an eye, so it is called "angel's eyes". Stay at Huamugou Jinkun Hotel.
Early morning Yadan on the water:

Today's itinerary: Huamugou - Mangya Emerald Lake - Golmud. Emerald Lake is not far from Huamugou, but it is a long way to Golmud, and it takes 7 hours to drive by car. Mangya Emerald Lake is the most beautiful lake seen on this trip: surrounded by mountains, the lake is crystal clear and emerald in color, and the whole scenic spot is like a fairyland fairyland. Tourists are all amazed and have a deep memory. Overnight at Golmud Magnolia Hotel.

Today's itinerary: Golmud - Jade Everest - Hoh Xil - Suonandajie Station - Golmud. The Beijing-Tibet Expressway is cut off when it exits Golmud, and we have to take the national highway. Here you have to cross the 4,760-meter Kunlun Mountain pass, and the scenery is endless along the way. The Hoh Xil Reserve has a large area and access is restricted. We walked along its edge, parallel to the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, and crossed the Budongquan to reach the Sonam Dajie Protection Station.

Today's itinerary: Golmud - Donggecuona Lake - Longyang Gorge. Depart from Golmud and take the Beijing-Tibet Expressway to Delingha, transfer to the Chengdu Expressway, and arrive at Dongjitsona Lake in Guoluo Prefecture. This lake is a niche attraction, not many people go there. From here to the east, you will enter the pastoral area. The scenery here is different from the front. It is a plateau meadow with gentle terrain and green grass. When the cattle and sheep are scattered, the scenery is very beautiful under the blue sky and white clouds. Stay overnight in Desheng Village, Longyang Gorge Scenic Area.

Journey to the West's "Eight-Day In-Depth Tour of Qinghai" ended yesterday, and the donkey friends will return to their respective hometowns. According to the plan, my brothers and I will go to Jingtai Yellow River Stone Forest in Gansu, and Shapotou Scenic Spot in Zhongwei, Ningxia, and then fly back to Shanghai. So early in the morning we have to take the K2188 train to Lanzhou, then transfer to K9882 to Baiyin, and then take the Baiyin special line to the Yellow River Stone Forest Scenic Spot.

Last night, we agreed with the hotel owner Zhang that at 5:30 this morning, he drove us to the Yinmagou Observation Deck to take pictures of the sunrise, and then we toured the Yinma Grand Canyon on our own, and then he picked us up at the 22nd road to view the scenery Taiwan took a panoramic view, and then sent us to the scenic bus station. We set off on time, covered with a slight morning light, went straight to the gate of the scenic spot, and got on the karting lane until the car was hard to drive. After we visited the scenic spots, we just caught up with the through train to Jingtai at 12:20. It was delivered safely on time for 10 yuan, and we easily caught up with the K2889 train to Zhongwei at 3:26. Two hours later, we checked into the Zhongwei Hotel up.
