Chaka Salt Lake - China Travel

introduce

Chaka Salt Lake is a salt field with a history of more than 3,000 years. The lake has a high salt content and will naturally crystallize into a white lake, reflecting the sky, clouds and mountains on the other side in the lake. The scenery is very beautiful. Visitors can also walk barefoot on the lake to watch and take pictures of their own reflections, just like the realm of the sky.

Chaka Salt Lake has a high degree of crystallinity on sunny days. You can see that the white salt lake is covered with a thin layer of brine, and the scenery and reflections are clear and pure. In the sculpture area of the scenic spot, you can see the guardian goddess of the salt lake carved in stone. In addition to this sculpture, about a dozen other huge sculptures are all salt sculptures, including Maitreya Buddha and Genghis Khan.

Walking along the passage to the lake, you can see the white and pure Chaka Salt Lake, where you can take off your shoes and walk into the lake barefoot to enjoy yourself. There is a railway extending into the lake in the middle of the lake. The starting point is the place where you can take a small train. You can take a car to the depths of the lake, where the scenery is more pure.

must see tips

1. Before visiting Chaka Salt Lake, it is best to prepare some wet paper towels. When the skin is stained with salt or salt water, wash it with fresh water or wipe it off with a paper towel. If it takes a long time, it will cause some damage to the skin.
2. When it is sunny here, the light is very strong, and there is reflection on the lake surface, sun protection is required, and it is best to prepare a pair of sunglasses to protect the eyes.
3. You cannot eat in the scenic area, and shopping is not very convenient, so it is best to bring your own drinking water and dry food to enter.
4. The Chaka Salt Lake area is about 3,000 meters above sea level. Be careful not to exercise vigorously to avoid altitude sickness.
5. Because the salt layer is relatively rough, it will be a little painful when walking barefoot, and the deep silt in the lake is deep, so it is not recommended to walk too deep.

The sky in China is comparable to the Uyuni Salt Lake in South America. When the weather is good, the water and the sky are the same color. It really feels like walking in the sky. It is also the nearest online celebrity check-in attraction. It is worth visiting.

[Scenery] Time seems to stand still here, giving everyone a pure dream. The sky is very low, Chaka is the lake in the sky, and the lake is the blue sky and white clouds on the ground. Take her and take the small train. What you leave is the scenery, and what you leave behind are good memories. [Fun] Under the clear sky, in the mirror of the sky left behind in the world, you become the center of the world, the reflection in the lake, you can't tell the boundary between the sky and the lake, the real world or the phantom in the lake. Reflected in the lake, the beautiful picture is produced instantly. [Value for money] Under the shining of the sun, light blue, silver, and pink purple appear on the lake surface to accompany the romantic moments. The beautiful starry sky at night makes you imagine the scenery under the same starry sky hundreds of years ago.

To go to Chaka, you should first make a strategy, especially the weather. I was lucky. It was cloudy when I set off from Xining, and it was raining on the road, but when I arrived in the afternoon, it suddenly cleared up, and I took quite good photos. Secondly, you should reserve a good amount of time. If you have the conditions, it is best to live nearby. Although the hotel may not be satisfactory, you can bear it in order to have fun. Then talk about transportation, if you have enough time, you can choose to take the train to the town to rent a car or charter a car to the scenic spot. It is really tiring to go to and from Xining, and it won't last long. Rubber Mountain tends to get foggy at night, and driving at night is also dangerous. If you pass by Qinghai Lake Scenic Area, if you don’t have high requirements for hotels, you can stay near Qinghai Lake. In the last picture above, all the unpleasantness of the journey will be diluted by the beautiful scenery, and all the good memories will be left behind!
