The park exhibits over 180 species and more than 3,000 wild animals, making it the world's only zoo that integrates captive-bred populations of snow leopards, Himalayan vultures, and Pallas's cats.
Guests can see rare animals unique to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, such as snow leopards, Tibetan antelopes, and wild yaks, as well as introduced species like hippos and giraffes.
It was so much fun…a really fun and interesting zoo.
The only downside was that I didn't get to see "Teacher Xiao Liang." Apparently, Tibetan foxes aren't on display anymore because they're afraid of people…

The hotel does not have a navigation system, so it is best to ask the hotel staff before going. The staff was very attentive and even upgraded us to a larger RV for free, which was very nice (｡•̀ᴗ-)
Weather is crucial! The scenery in Chaka is dramatically different on sunny and cloudy days. Check the weather forecast carefully; if it's cloudy or rainy, don't hesitate!
When taking photos at the salt lake, wear shoe covers. 1. Bring your own or rent them at the scenic area. The shoe covers you bring shouldn't be too short; ideally, they should be above the knee.
Also, bring sunglasses, sun protection clothing, and a sun hat. Ultraviolet rays are very strong, making it difficult to keep your eyes open when taking photos.

Xining's Family Treasure! A Day of Fun at Xinhualian Tongmeng Park
Bringing my kids to Xining's Xinhualian Tongmeng Park completely blew away my expectations of Northwest theme parks! As a comprehensive park offering one-stop family fun, it's truly worth adding to your Xining travel bucket list.
The most stunning attraction was Xining Ocean World. As the world's highest aquarium, you can see lively penguins, spectacular dolphin shows, and the unique Qinghai Lake naked carp display on the plateau. The children's eyes lit up the entire time, and the underwater performances were truly captivating. A ride on the 108-meter "Eye of Qinghai" Ferris wheel in the land park is a must-do. When it lights up in the evening, you'll get a panoramic view of the park, creating stunning photos. The thrilling tornado pendulum and the immersive "Arabian Nights" dark ride offer fun for both adults and children.
If you're traveling with young children, Tongmeng Kingdom is an absolute paradise. With nearly 8,000 square meters of indoor space and safe, fun facilities, children can enjoy a long day of fun. The fully heated Tongmeng Water World is sun- and cold-resistant, and the wave pool and lazy river are fantastic, perfect for parent-child interaction.
The Silk Road Town within the park is unique, featuring miniature replicas of buildings from 18 countries. While taking photos and checking in, you can also educate your children about their culture. If you're hungry, head to the Ethnic Food Street, where you can sample specialties from 56 ethnic groups all in one place, allowing you to experience the flavors of each region without having to travel too far.
The only caveat is that the plateau's ultraviolet rays are strong, so remember to wear sunscreen. The temperature difference between morning and evening can be significant, so bring a light jacket. The fireworks show is only held from Tuesdays to Saturdays, so plan your time well in advance. Overall, whether you're traveling with children or friends, this place has something for everyone. It's a fulfilling and enjoyable day out, and I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Xining!
- Family-Friendly Experience: The park features rides like a pirate ship and a carousel, perfect for young children. It also boasts Qinghai's first large-scale indoor children's playground, the Dream Kingdom, and dolphin shows at the Ocean World, ensuring children have fun and making it a great destination for families.
- Extensive Attractions: Featuring attractions like the Kunlun Tower, Qinghai's tallest and fastest bungee jumping platform, and an indoor version of the Chaka Salt Lake rafting system, as well as thrilling rides like a giant pendulum and roller coasters, the park caters to a variety of visitors.
- Diverse Dining: The park's food court is a paradise for carb lovers, offering popular specialties like Qinghai traditional yogurt, dog diaper cakes, and yak skewers.
- Excellent Scenery and Performances: The evening features dazzling fireworks displays and bonfire-based Guozhuang dances, creating a delightful atmosphere. Furthermore, the park's diverse architectural styles make for excellent photo opportunities.
