Climb up to the Dongger Viewing Platform to admire the magnificent Qinghai Lake and easily take stunning photos

Qinghai Lake, known as the 'Blue Gem of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau,' is the largest inland saltwater lake in China. Its Tibetan name is 'Tso Ngonpo' (meaning 'Blue Sea'). The lake covers an area of 4,625.6 square kilometers and has a water volume of 74.3 billion cubic meters. It is also one of the highest lakes in the world, with a surface elevation of 3,196 meters. The lake water is clear and blue, with high transparency. Due to its high salt content, the lake exhibits a unique blue color. The color of the lake water changes with different weather and lighting conditions, sometimes appearing as deep as a gemstone, and other times as bright as the sky. There are several viewing platforms around Qinghai Lake, and the Dongger Viewing Platform is one of them. It is located on the eastern shore of Qinghai Lake and offers a panoramic view of the lake. 🌈 Highlights: ✅ There are multiple boardwalks for visitors to stroll along, making each step feel like walking on a painting.

The shimmering lake surface is magnificent, and it is also a great place to feed the fish and interact with them, adding a unique touch of fun. ✅ This is the closest spot to Qinghai Lake, with many props on the viewing platform, making it an excellent choice for taking photos and checking in‼️ ✅ This is a paradise for photography enthusiasts. Whether shooting landscapes or portraits, you can easily capture stunning photos! 🎫 Ticket: Free 🚗 Transportation: Navigate 🧭 and drive yourself.
