This is a must-see attraction! We took the scenic bus to the innermost part for 15 yuan per person and started taking photos. It was absolutely beautiful. We were lucky enough to have a sunny day with no clouds. We had a blast.
The salt lake is quite large, and the shuttle bus ride from the scenic area gate takes over 10 minutes. The scenery is quite beautiful, and the lake water is a turquoise green. You can also take an electric car after arriving at the scenic area, which saves you from walking. If you want to take more photos, you can walk around.

It is recommended to go out when the weather is good, otherwise the photos will be dark. I only had an hour and a half to play, so I went to Golden Beach and West Sea Fleet. I couldn't take the same effect without a drone. However, there are rocks on the side of Turtle Mountain that you can climb up, and the photos will be slightly better.
Some people say it's not worth going, that I wasn't amazed or impressed, and that the drive is long. But it's undeniably unique. There's only a speedboat for 160 yuan for 10 minutes, no boat trips. Feeding the seagulls costs 20 yuan for 10 small fish.

Dongtai Jinel Lake is located in Golmud City, Haixi Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province. The lake shimmers in the sun, revealing a unique blue, endless, empty and mysterious. There is no sign of disappearing or appearing, it is a drop of God's "blue tears". Very suitable for punching in and taking pictures. In the past decade, Dongtai Jinel Lake has disappeared many times. After 3 years, it appeared in Gobi like a mirage. The distinctive Tiffany Blue is mainly derived from lithium salt. It is inconvenient to go to Dongtai and it is best to drive by yourself.
1. A must-see attraction on the Qinghai-Gansu loop.
2. The light blue lake is clear and transparent, as beautiful as the Maldives.
3. It is currently a company mining area, and no entrance fee is charged.
4. It is between the water Yadan and the U-shaped road.
5. Free parking lot, stalls, and travel photography shops. It takes 10 minutes to walk to the lake.
6. There are transparent boats on the lakeside for paid photography and to the sandbar in the lake.
7. It is so beautiful!
