Westward Journey Memoirs

Driving from the vast plains of Ningxia to Xining, Qinghai, we traverse the rich geomorphology of the loess plateau and the Qinghai-Tibet plateau, experiencing the visual shock brought by the natural changes. Upon arriving in Xining, the first stop is the Xining Wildlife Park, which is not only an ecological education base but also an ideal place for parent-child interaction. Children will observe rare plateau animals up close in the shady park, experience feeding the Milu deer, and watch the national treasure pandas play, each lively moment becoming a beautiful memory of family travel, enhancing family affection while also cultivating a reverence for nature and life in the children. Then, we set off from Xining to the Chaka Salt Lake, as if stepping into a dreamlike painting. The lake surface is like a mirror, reflecting the endless blue sky and white clouds, and being there is like entering a pure and bright fairy tale world. Children happily step onto the snow-white salt fields of the lake, while parents are intoxicated by this peaceful and grand natural wonder, and the whole family marvels at the craftsmanship of nature. The sunset at Chaka Salt Lake is particularly moving, with golden-red twilight covering the lake, like gems scattered from the sky to earth, deeply touching. Finally, the journey returns to Qinghai Lake, this piece of jade inlaid on the plateau, vast and boundless, where the lake water meets the sky, revealing a profound and mysterious aura between the sparkling waves. Walking along the lakeshore, looking around, the distant snow mountains are towering, and the nearby migratory birds are graceful, as the family shares a quiet time by Qinghai Lake, allowing the soul to return to the embrace of nature. This trip is not only a visual feast but also a family journey that purifies the soul, with each scenery becoming the brightest star in memory, illuminating the beautiful aspirations of future life.
