    Mars Base 1 is located in Jinchang City, Gansu Province. It is the first Mars-themed immersive real-life experience base in China. There are multiple experience centers in the base, including the Mars Simulation Survival Experience Center and the Mars Interstellar Exploration Experience Center. The rich facilities and activities allow visitors to enjoy a real Mars exploration experience. Visitors can also feel the desolate scene of Mars around here and take photos in this special environment, just like an interstellar explorer. The base ticket is 99 yuan, and visitors can also choose to stay for one night, and experience the magnificent view of the stars in the sky at night. So on the whole, Mars Base 1 is still worth a visit.

    It is known as the first snow peak in life, because it is the closest snow peak to the city more than 5 kilometers. Traffic is a big advantage. From Xining, it is very convenient to take the Zhangwen Expressway or the 227 provincial road. The good thing is that the attractions are free and only need a shuttle bus for 25 yuan. The fly in the ointment is that there is only a small amount of snow at the end of the arrival, which is a little disappointing. I heard that if you want to climb the snowy mountain, you must issue a specific inspection report and a professional mountaineering certificate.

    I had low expectations for this attraction based on reviews, saying it was mostly group tours. But when we arrived, the first thing we felt was the warm service. From selling tickets, borrowing wheelchairs, to getting a tour guide, every staff member we interacted with was truly heartwarming. The tour guide was especially enthusiastic throughout the entire experience, as was the Tu ethnic brother who promoted Tu ethnic customs. We enjoyed authentic barley flour mooncakes and heartwarming milk tea. Finally, the brother gave me a self-study textbook for the Tu ethnic language, giving me the opportunity to learn my own language while living in a foreign land. Thank you! I hope the Tu Ethnic Culture Park can reflect on its strengths and weaknesses and continue to improve!

    First, be cheerful and enjoy the beauty of nature wherever you go. At over 3,000 meters above sea level, enjoying a meal of beef and mutton stewed with Qilian Huanggu tea, followed by a glass of local barley wine, is the perfect experience. A must-do for family and friends.

    This Tibetan culture museum is definitely worth visiting. It has a very long Thangka painting that's over 600 meters long. It's also great for taking photos. It's a place worth coming to, but there is an entrance fee. Book your tickets in advance.

    The Dongguan Grand Mosque in Xining City is a rare and solemn building. The nine gold-plated regular script characters "Xining Budongguan Grand Mosque" are inscribed on the middle door lintel, and the inside and outside of the other door lintels are inscribed with gold-plated Arabic classic quotations. The "Hundred-Character Praise" inscribed by Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty, for mosques across the country is preserved in the temple and is embedded in the wall of the middle door, which is worth seeing.

    A worthwhile museum offers a window into Qinghai's history and culture. To explore Qinghai and the plateau, start at the Qinghai Provincial Museum. The museum displays artifacts from across the province, including brocades, silks, gold, silver, and bronze artifacts unearthed from the Reshui Tombs in Dulan, painted pottery from the Liuwan Tombs, 4,000-year-old Lajia noodle containers and noodles, the first bronze mirror and tile end from the Guinan grasslands, Panxiu from the Rainbow Homeland, row lanterns from the ancient city of Danger, and Qutan artifacts from the imperial monasteries. The exquisite craftsmanship is breathtaking and unforgettable.

    Also known as "Puning Pearl", it was built with the aid of Shanghai Pudong New Area, and is named after Pudong and Xining.

    It's a small zoo. If you're not interested in seeing the pandas, just buy a regular ticket. Seeing the Pallas's cat and lynx is largely a matter of luck; we only saw a Pallas's cat on our second visit, and we didn't see a lynx at all.
