Stay up all night, climb a mountain, and watch a sunrise.

Romantic people are the craziest. On the way up the mountain at 5:30 am, the bright moon and stars in the sky make the night before dawn full of anticipation. After arriving, I chose a flat place nearby and looked around. Many people had already gathered on the viewing platform in the distance and on the mountain behind me to watch the sunrise. Some people were setting off fireworks, some were waving flags and shouting, and some were dancing around the bonfire... injecting fresh and warm life into the silent night. The wind was whistling in my ears, raging on my cheeks and hair, playing a symphony for the sun that was about to break through the sky. Looking at the golden light slowly appearing on the horizon, the earth was lit up inch by inch, and the scenery in front of me became vivid. I saw the golden mountain, and all the waiting was worth it! Route: Navigate to [Laji Mountain], 40–50 minutes from downtown Xining. Drive carefully on the mountain road and pay attention to safety. Cost: The scenic area is open for free. Next to it is Zongkala, known as the "First Pass of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau," where you can pray and light a lamp. Climate: Located at a high-altitude mountain pass, it is windy and cold. Wear thick cotton clothes, leather boots, etc., and wear a hat, mask, and scarf.
