Plateau Holy Lake | Qinghai Lake

The sky is azure, the sun is bright. In the distance, verdant mountains contrast with the vast lake, like a flowing painting. On the grassland by the lake, clusters of wildflowers bloom in competition, forming an interesting picture with the leisurely cows and sheep. The lake surface is sparkling, gently exuding a blue glow, like a dreamy fairyland. The charm of Qinghai Lake lies not only in its magnificent natural scenery, but also in its profound historical culture and rich human landscape. On the northeast shore of the lake, there is the famous Bird Island, which is a gathering place for various birds. Every spring, tens of thousands of migratory birds nest and reproduce here, forming a vivid ecological picture. Qinghai Lake is also a sacred place in the hearts of Tibetans. According to legend, it is a drop of sweet dew sprinkled by Guanyin Bodhisattva, which turned into clear lake water. Every year, thousands of Tibetans spontaneously go to Qinghai Lake for pilgrimage and sacrifice, forming a unique religious and cultural landscape.
