Don't underestimate the cold in Qinghai! 🎒Secondly, some essentials are necessary for the journey, such as sunscreen, lip balm, windproof glasses, and sun hats. Although it is winter, the ultraviolet rays in Qinghai are very strong, so you need to protect your skin effectively. 🥤Next, the high-altitude area can easily make people feel dehydrated, so hydrating drinks are necessary. It is recommended to prepare some mineral water and instant drinks to ensure you can replenish water at any time. 📸Of course, Xining, Qinghai Lake, and Chaka Salt Lake are very beautiful, so photography equipment and spare batteries are also necessary. Make sure your camera equipment is always ready to capture your wonderful moments. 📒Finally, don't forget your documents! Such as ID cards and driver's licenses. Especially in places where ID cards may be checked on highways and accommodations, so carry them with you! -------- That's it, Xining, Qinghai Lake, and Chaka Salt Lake, a mysterious world of light and color, waiting for you to explore and experience with your heart!
