The Yadan on the water is indeed unique and the scenery is beautiful. There are many large and small Yadan on the shore, you can climb up to enjoy the view, but be careful. There are seagulls in several places, and children will love it!
The scenery of the scenic spot is quite special, and the Yadan landform on the water is very special. The area is also relatively large, and you still have to take a sightseeing bus. There are many entertainment projects in the scenic area. The scenery is quite photogenic, and there are many seagulls.

The zoo is worth visiting. There are many animals that you can't see in the mainland. What touched me most was the zoo's unremitting efforts to save wild animals. Snow leopards, lynxes, and manuls are the children's favorites~
The zoo is very big, and there are many animals from the plateau, which are not found in other zoos. When I went there, there were not many people inside, which was really comfortable. There were not many people, and the leisurely and slow-paced feeling was really good.

The location here for viewing Qinghai Lake is excellent. The newly opened scenic area is not crowded and the price-performance ratio is high. Driving from here to Heimahe via Huanhu West Road is probably the most beautiful section of Qinghai Lake.
Free admission, the shuttle bus is 38 yuan regardless of the crowd. High cost performance, beautiful scenery, many 湟鱼, no need to queue for the shuttle bus, very convenient. Directly to the edge of Qinghai Lake, worth going.

Just by the four words "Qinghai-Tibet Plateau", it has irreplaceable uniqueness, attracting people to explore the magic of the plateau, so after being closed on the first day, we have to come again the next day, which is also the last stop of this trip to Xining. 24 exhibition halls of landform models/topography science/animal and plant specimens/Sanjiangyuan water samples, every step in the natural science popularization experience a sense of substitution, the spirituality of all things on the third pole of the roof of the world is majestic and magnificent.
No matter how smart and rare the Helena Morpho Butterfly is, or how full and sacred the Rhodiola rosea is, it is not as persistent and vivid as the exploration of Sanjiangyuan, and the scientific expedition to Mount Everest is so great and magnificent. The last two displays are particularly interesting
The museum is very large, rich in content, eye-opening, restoring the true history, popularizing humanities and geography, and improving the pattern! I admire the beautiful mountains and rivers of the motherland and the hard work and friendship of people of all ethnic groups. I like the beautiful mountains and rivers of the motherland!

I bought a double ticket for 238 yuan. When I went there, three or four projects were not open. I played all the projects that were open. I also watched the dolphin show in the aquarium. The aquarium was very rich and beautiful. Since it closed at 18:00, I didn't see the aquarium carefully, which was a bit regrettable. Water World was also open, which was included in the pass. I didn't go in because I didn't bring swimming trunks, but I didn't have time to play. Overall, it was worth it.
Xinhualian Tongmeng Park integrates amusement, animal and plant appreciation and knowledge popularization, providing convenient conditions for children to get in touch with and understand relevant animal and plant knowledge in an all-round way. It also has convenient transportation and parking, making it an ideal choice for family leisure and entertainment on weekends.

The 5A scenic spot feels a bit small, the natural scenery, the cost performance is OK, it's good to have fewer tourists, I don't want to go to crowded scenic spots, it's good to come here. The staff service is very good, the scenic spot is well equipped, it would be better if you can drive in by car.
We drove from Xining and enjoyed the picturesque scenery. After arriving at the scenic spot, the staff allowed us to drive in because the mountain was about to be closed and there were few tourists. We were so happy! There were almost no tourists in the scenic area, only a few construction workers and aboriginals. There were cattle and sheep everywhere. It was so beautiful against the backdrop of blue sky, white clouds and snow-capped mountains! It is worthy of being a 5A scenic spot and it is worthy of being on the National Geographic Magazine of China. Beautiful China! Qinghai is so beautiful!

There was almost no one there when we went there. There were only two young ladies taking photos. I have to say that this attraction is really very secluded. It is very suitable for taking some nice pictures. There are some animals whose names I don't know, wild ducks. The lake is quite wide.
Qinghai Lake has a large area. This place called Fairy Bay has attracted so many people to visit it before and today. In addition to the special scenic spot, many migratory birds spend the winter here every year.

No.1 of Hot Springs Attractions in Qinghai

It is very suitable to take children to play. The water is very hot. After soaking, the skin is very good. The legs are not dry. I like it very much. The only drawback is that the restaurant is not open. You need to bring your own food. The indoor and outdoor areas have their own characteristics.
The Snow Mountain Hot Spring is still worth experiencing. It is perfect to soak in the hot spring at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, accompanied by a bottle of beer. The place is relatively large and there are many pools. The snow on the top of the mountain in the peak summer season has not melted yet, which is great.
