東国This film area is a bit special. The white salt field looks like snow shadows, which is very beautiful. However, once you get to the film area, you have to pay extra for almost every attraction. You can't move an inch without paying.

优雅的搞笑女This Tibetan culture museum is definitely worth visiting. It has a very long Thangka painting that's over 600 meters long. It's also great for taking photos. It's a place worth coming to, but there is an entrance fee. Book your tickets in advance.

大 牛Kumbum Monastery is famous for two main reasons. First, its location is close to Xining, the capital of Qinghai Province, only 28 kilometers away, making it easily accessible to travelers with excellent service. Second, it is the birthplace of Tsongkhapa, the founder of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism, for whom a large silver stupa was built. Later, a monastery was built around the stupa, which was then directly named Kumbum Monastery. It's a vast complex, built against the mountainside, very majestic. Walking among it, experiencing Tibetan Buddhism, and watching the Tibetan people prostrating themselves in devout worship, you'll feel somewhat mesmerized. 😂

M25***94The bus costs 60 yuan per person, and the ride is really long, haha. The colors of the scenic area are beautiful, very beautiful. You must go when the weather is good, otherwise it's not really green or emerald green.

pupu ོAbsolutely stunning! You absolutely must take a speedboat and a paraglider – it's totally worth it! Otherwise, you won't see even a fraction of the beauty of the water-based Yadan landforms! These are unfiltered, real photos! But you really need to take a speedboat to see them.

金牌小皮皮Emerald Lake is still beautiful in winter. There are fewer people, and the ticket price is half price. You can go to the viewing platform to see the whole lake. You can go up if you want. Because it is a bit cold in winter, the staff also let me go inside to wait for the mini train, which was very kind. I walked around and took pictures for three hours.

Anonymous userThis was an experience that exceeded my expectations. I especially want to commend the driver; he was warm, friendly, and provided excellent service. He even recommended some local delicacies based on our needs. Overall, it was fantastic in every way 🎉. Although it was the off-season, it wasn't crowded, and the experience was great. Highly recommended!

gogo_0930The Xining Qinghai-Tibet Plateau Wildlife Park is worth visiting two or three times. We saw the adorable giant pandas, and even spotted the internet-famous Ling Xiaozhe, with its agile movements and commanding presence. The Garden Babies were working hard, exuding their own cool charm. The Pallas's cat was curled up in its wooden enclosure; every single animal was incredibly cute.

M35***28The 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-)
