You must arrive at Chaka Salt Lake around seven or eight in the morning (there are quite a lot of people at the entrance of the scenic spot at this time), and there will be more and more people coming in one after another, and there will be a crowd of people when you come out at 12 noon 2. If you want to rent shoe covers to go down to the lake, you have to rent them early, or you will have to queue up! 3.

Admission ticket + small train (free for Zhejiang people) The small train goes directly to the last station to get off, the lake inside is blue and green, the lake you see when you first enter is not good-looking 2. There will be no one's angle to take pictures after getting off the car and walking in a bit, the lake near the road is crowded with people, and the background is all people 3. I went in the afternoon, and the sky was a bit cloudy. It is recommended to go in the morning 4. The wind is very strong, pay attention to the items not to be blown away
