Climb up to the Dongger Viewing Platform to admire the magnificent Qinghai Lake and easily take stunning photos

Qinghai Lake, known as the 'Blue Gem of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau,' is the largest inland saltwater lake in China. Its Tibetan name is 'Tso Ngonpo' (meaning 'Blue Sea'). The lake covers an area of 4,625.6 square kilometers and has a water volume of 74.3 billion cubic meters. It is also one of the highest lakes in the world, with a surface elevation of 3,196 meters. The lake water is clear and blue, with high transparency. Due to its high salt content, the lake exhibits a unique blue color.

Whether shooting landscapes or portraits, you can easily capture stunning photos! 🎫 Ticket: Free 🚗 Transportation: Navigate 🧭 and drive yourself.
