The blue sky was slightly blue when I reflected Qinghai Lake. I heard other tourists say that the sea and sky are the same color, and the lake is what color."Haiyan8.5km from downtownHighlights: The Tibetan name of Qinghai Lake is "Cowinbu" (meaning "blue sea"). Located in the northeast of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and in Qinghai Province, it is formed by the fault collapse between Datong Mountain, Riyue Mountain and Nanshan Mountain of the Qilian Mountains.

[View] The summer pasture under Qilian Snow Mountain 🏔️, the herdsmen have set up tents in early July and gradually transferred 🐮🐏 to this place. Unlike several types of grasslands in Inner Mongolia, this is a gentle slope and valley at the foot of a mountain. Qilian grassland and snow-capped rapeseed fields that gradually opened in early July have the best edible effect.
