✅✅✅Today, we have compiled a detailed travel guide for the Northwest Qinghai-Gansu Grand Loop for everyone. It is comprehensive, detailed and considerate. Friends who are preparing to set off in 2025 should quickly collect it❗️ . ✅The routes in the northwest are generally fixed; therefore, when traveling in the northwest: ① package 🚗, ② group 🚗 will be very popular . ❌It is not recommended to travel by car in the northwest because the road conditions in the northwest are very complicated; there are many winding mountain roads, and there are several areas with strong side winds; there is no signal here in the Yadan landform. Driving in the Northwest without any experience is not a good choice. .

Northwest Attractions Collection 💎Qinghai Lake: Qinghai Lake is deep and pure blue, like a jade that has abandoned the hustle and bustle. 💎 Chaka Salt Lake: A mirror left in the human world, the water reflects the sky, the sky connects to the ground, and people walking in the lake are like swimming in a painting 💎Emerald Lake: A piece of magnificent emerald in the mortal world, with clear and shimmering green, composing a legend of treasure in the barren Gobi land 💎Water Yadan: The world's only water Yadan landform is a peculiar wind erosion landform 💎 Mogao Grottoes: After thousands of years of wind, sand, rain and snow, it still stands tenaciously, showing the fusion and collision of ethnic groups for two thousand years. 💎 Crescent Lake in Mingsha Mountain: "Mountain and spring coexist, sand and water coexist", the water is sweet and clear like a mirror 💎Colorful Danxia: The color is like red, as bright as the clouds, crisscrossed, undulating and stretching, like a maze-like canyon 💎 Qilian Grassland: Vast alpine grassland, accompanied by pastoral songs and beautiful scenery . 🏠Northwest accommodation options 🔹Xining Railway Station: The transportation is convenient. You can also go to the West Gate of the Central District, Shuijing Lane, and Wanda Golden Street in the West District, where you can experience many local delicacies. 🔹Qinghai Lake: Basically you can only choose the one near Erlangjian Scenic Area. The environment is very good, but the price is relatively expensive. 🔹Chaka Town: The Heimahe Hotel has been demolished. It will be more crowded to stay in Jiangxigou and Erlangjian. It is recommended to stay in Chaka Town, where it is more convenient to eat. 🔹Dachaidan: This is a remote area with no people, so the housing supply is limited and the price is very high. It is recommended to book online in advance 🔹Dunhuang: There are many options for accommodation, including business hotels, homestays, and desert camping. 🔹Zhangye: To watch the sunrise in Danxia Scenic Area, you can choose to stay in a farmhouse near Linze Danxia Scenic Area . ⚠️Northwest Notes 1⃣️There are many paid attractions in the northwest, and the tickets are not cheap. Remember to bring your student ID and military ID to get a discount. 2⃣️ Check the weather for the next few days before going out, and dress accordingly. The temperature difference between different regions in the northwest is large, and the temperature will drop immediately when it rains, so you must bring one or two pieces of warm clothing 3⃣️If you want to ride a horse, remember to compare prices from several shops and bargain, you can get a much cheaper price 4⃣️Find a photo studio outside Mingsha Mountain Scenic Area to rent clothes for taking photos~ But be sure to compare more🆚 The clothes in each studio are similar, so makeup is the top priority
