Qinghai Travel | Frozen Qinghai Lake

| Frozen Qinghai Lake. ❄️The Qinghai Lake in winter is different from the summer when the lake and sky are one color. The frozen lake surface is like a silver mirror, presenting another beautiful scenery. Qinghai Lake begins to enter the frozen period in mid-December every year. The frozen period lasts about five months each year. Ice will begin to form from the shore and gradually extend to the center of the lake until the entire lake is covered with ice. The whole process generally lasts until the end of January. The frozen lake surface for about forty days is like a broken jade belt, forming a unique landscape. The Northwest has the most tranquil and original appearance, with snow scenes everywhere. More and more people choose to come to the Northwest in autumn and winter to avoid the crowds during the peak season. ☁️About temperature: There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening in the plateau area, and the sun is warm at noon. Friends in the south are advised to wear thick clothes when winter comes. 💰About the cost: You can enjoy the treatment of private tour. Tickets to various scenic spots are half-price, and hotel prices are dropping again and again. The price of peak season travel can be saved by at least half in autumn and winter. The Qinghai Lake in winter has a unique charm that is different from other seasons - it is covered in silver, yet the lake itself is azure blue, and the ice and jade make it look like a fairyland. Qinghai Lake is ethereal and charming against the backdrop of snow-capped mountains. After November, the edge of Qinghai Lake begins to freeze, and the snow-capped mountains along the way are covered with snow. There are yaks and sheep all over the mountains, and you can see the original grazing scene! Around January, Qinghai Lake is no longer a deep blue lake, but a white world of ice and snow!
