Even the Northwest Tour (2)
Xining, Qinghai Lake
Shanghai - Xining: Only train 376 times (new air-conditioning straight fast), because even when you buy everywhere Lanzhou, Lanzhou - Xining is a complement of the votes, so full price is unclear, Shanghai - Lanzhou sleeper (the Shop) is 408 yuan, Lanzhou - Xining even fill the hard seat 31 yuan.
In August of Xining is very cool, from the air conditioning on trains or even sign of cooling down, it is recommended prepare a long-sleeved, jeans, of course, do not have to say is the best choice.
Live: in went before the Yellow Pages telephone inquiries about the best local accommodation, the general, are very cheap. Even when the place we live, single rooms for about 30 yuan (proposed single trips or choose to single room), a bath is a unified places. local water very cool, not cold water washing.
Eating: Nature is the variety of north-west flavor, vegetables, there are, of course, is not rich in species, but all kinds of fruits and more, cheap. Said that up to late August.
Line: traffic fairly convenient surface starting at 6 - 8 yuan, sit 3km, price seems to be 1.20 per km, even longer remember.
Play: even just went to the Qinghai Lake, Tar, and Riyue. Here we must note that, in Qinghai, where there is a play, but when you have to Xining, as the center, only trips with local travel agents, but even to this a few can be said itinerary for 1 day, there are 2 other tours, travel, etc. 3. This is mainly a matter of personal interest, time, financial resources may be. because these 2 day tour, 3 You go to many people, if you are going to have to count money, according to chartered, many people to it anyway, few people Well ....
Even with the travel agencies also have to come to the right people, in Xining building, a junior brigade and CYTS two offices, one day in advance you can book, reception FIT, 1 day to go a few spots that even the fare 80 yuan , with guide, entrance fee, lunch, take care of themselves.
As for the few spots, even not explained in detail, Qinghai Lake is really a very beautiful, but during the summer vacation will not let you go to Bird Island, because the time is simply no bird. Qinghai Lake has a middle class - huang (not yellow) fish, tasty unusual, but now have put a restraint on the killing, eating may not be authentic, it may be coming from another lake fishing. Tar, founder of the Yellow Sect were the birthplace of Aqaba, is very ambitious, there Ruin --- Butter Sculpture, murals and Duixiu is also worth a visit. In short, that 1 day is still very worthwhile, the most critical is absolutely impossible to take you everywhere, roaming the land of those man-made attractions.
Attractions in Xining city, the North Temple and the Great Mosque, North Temple for a Buddhist temple, even did not go, the Grand Mosque is said to very good, a pity that even when major repairs go. So even the entire run-in Xining is that on the 1st tour However, Ouxiang enough for most people. Note: Xining an altitude of about 2,000 meters, it should not have altitude sickness, but Riyue higher elevations, said to be 3500 or so, there should be more wear more clothes, tour guides also will remind you drink plenty of water, but generally will not have any problems. In addition, Xining darkness of late, about 8:00 until dark. the whole law and order is also good, you can rest assured that, of course, do not go to places where few people go. as it wants to live downtown.
