Booked a room to see the fireworks. You need a room with a superior Victoria Harbour view to see the fireworks. Finally, I stayed in a superior Victoria Harbour view suite with club benefits. The room view is very dreamy, exactly the same as the official picture. The hotel informed us in advance, because there was a float cruise on the first night of the first day, there was a fireworks display on the second night of the first day, and the road around the hotel would be closed. It is recommended that we arrive in advance. Very intimate. Because the room view is very good and the wine is rich, the club is very convenient and delicious. The children didn't play everywhere but liked to stay in the room, play cards, chat and read ..... and spent a very relaxing and pleasant two days. It was a holiday feeling.
Beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful afternoon sun is now the 4th observation point beautiful dead, no filter, because there is a little dark cloud when going, the sun will come out, hide for a while, especially amazing

Chaka Salt Lake is as dreamy as a mirror in the sky, so where is it? It is located in Chaka Town, Ulan County, Haixi Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, in the northwest of my country. From a general direction, it is on the northeastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. This magical salt lake is like a bright pearl sprinkled on the earth. Imagine walking in the salt lake, the sky and the salt lake are reflected, and the beauty is extreme. One day, let's go together to experience the unique romance of the northwest and rush to this clear and clear place in the distance💕
At first, I was still hesitating whether to go to Chaka after visiting Emerald Lake. After I came here, I found it was worth it. The gift of nature is never repeated. The weather was very good, and I could go directly to the salt lake, which was very beautiful. But I must check the shoe covers I rented carefully. My child went in without checking, and the shoes were all wet. After the water solidified, it was difficult to take off the pants and shoes.

As the western starting point of the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty, Jiayuguan has a strategic geographical location, a sophisticated military defense system, a profound historical and cultural heritage, and the core characteristics of the development of the times that blend the ancient and modern times.
The perfect fusion of natural barriers and military defense systems
The terrain advantage of mountains and rivers.
Located in the narrowest canyon (about 16 kilometers) between Qilian Mountain and Heishan Mountain, it controls the throat of the Hexi Corridor and forms a strategic point where "one man guards the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it".
With the help of natural barriers such as Taolai River Canyon and Xincheng Caohu, a three-dimensional defense network with a depth of 100 miles is constructed.
The overall route is relatively smooth and orderly. You can only go to one city at night and see the snow-capped mountains in the distance. The sunset from the city wall is still beautiful. In the evening performance, the actors spoke very softly and it was almost impossible to hear what they said. The on-site management was relatively chaotic. There was no fence in the performance area. It was dangerous for children to rush in during the acrobatics and archery. Except for the last collective performance, the others were a bit perfunctory. The light show at night was still spectacular, covering the entire city wall, but the content of the show was not nutritious, and I didn't see any historical content or anything like that.

The scenery is magnificent, the attractions are set reasonably, and there are many interesting activities and performances. The staff is warm and thoughtful and recommended to friends who like to travel!
Passing through the "Chaerhan Salt Lake", Asia's largest and the world's second largest salt lake, the lake has its own filters, showing charming azure, green blue, and even deep indigo in different light. Although it was peeling in the afternoon, I saw this beautiful jelly color and the heat was gone.

The guide introduction of the entire scenic spot is lacking. There will be no direction for passengers who have just entered the scenic spot. Others are not bad, and a little thought has been spent. Some scenery sketches and price control are good
Hotel location is great, just in the city center, there are many shopping malls around, it is convenient to go out. The room has a good view, can see the city view, the price is affordable, the price is super high, recommended!

The second time I went to Qinghai Lake, the smell of mulberry leaves became a lot heavier. But the scenery is still beautiful, you can see flying seagulls everywhere, the lake is also very clear, and there are many more facilities on the sea.
Sanya in the mountains, the sea and the blue sky are connected to the front line, there are seabirds to feed by the lake, and there is the only national second-level protection in the lake: salmon. Swim around the shore to find food. Bring a pair of sandals to play in the water and play in the sand.

The scenery is very beautiful. I and everyone like this attraction very much. This attraction is very rich in natural scenery, scenery, many historical places and monuments, and there are many enthusiastic staff. They all like this scenic spot. This scenic spot is simply great. I really like this scenic spot
Easy to miss places. Thousand Buddha Cave and Horseshoe Temple are very beautiful ～ is a bit far away. Basically, it is mainly self-driving. There are not many tour groups to go to ～ This season, there are rape flowers on Zhangye Road. It is worth stopping to take a photo ～

The scenery is still very shocking! Tourists can climb up the mountain, and then do the water slide down the mountain, 75 per person, or you can! A little colorful Danxia means, Qilian Mountain scenery is pleasant
Zhuoer Mountain Scenic Area is located on the edge of Qilian County, Qinghai Province. If you live in Qilian County, you can drive there in 10 minutes.
Zhuoer Mountain belongs to Danxia landform, with red exposed rocks, endless green grassland, yellow rapeseed fields, and snow-capped peaks of Qilian Mountain in the distance. The scenery is so beautiful that it deserves the reputation of Oriental Little Switzerland.
Recommended for summer travel!
Pay attention to sun protection and wear thicker clothes. It is still a bit cold on the top of the mountain.
There will be no altitude sickness if you go up slowly.
We happened to encounter the Qinghai Lake 🚴🏻♀️ cycling race. Qilian County closed the road at 7 o'clock in the morning, so we had to leave Qilian County in advance and arrived at the entrance of Zhuoer Mountain Scenic Area before 7 o'clock. I thought I had to wait at the door for 1 hour because the scenic area opened at 8 o'clock, but I didn't expect the scenic area to go to work early and check tickets at 7 o'clock. Like 👍👍👍

It's so beautiful that it makes no sense. It's very photogenic.
You need to make a careful plan beforehand. We didn't arrange it well, and the kids kept taking photos, which resulted in a bit of time constraints. As a result, we gave up one or two attractions. But we saw the main ones.
The weather is very important. It's so beautiful on a sunny day.
God's palette sprinkled on the northwest land
Blue, green, yellow... like pieces of jade inlaid on the ground
Thousands of miles of jade, boundless blue sky
I have to admire the magic of nature
Take the saltiest road to see the jade left in the world
Be fascinated at first sight, and slowly be amazed
Photos can't capture the actual beauty
I believe everyone who comes here will be shocked
Friends who love taking pictures can experience the Internet celebrity's aerial photography crystal boat, which is very photogenic

The second time I came to Chaka, the last time I went to Chaka Salt Lake Scenic Area, this time I came to the Sky No. 1 Scenic Area, I felt good, but the weather was not good, but there was no wind, the reflection could still be photographed, the small train arranged the line more reasonable.
Here is the reputation is relatively large, the scenery really needs to see the weather, the propaganda sky mirror is generally invisible, there is no reflection, all white flowers of salt fields, like ice. so so.
