Sanjiangyuan | You should always visit the national park that belongs to us at least once

I believe 90% of people like to look abroad 👀 The sea of the Maldives, the mountains of Switzerland, the forests of Germany, the savannahs of Africa... Conversely, 99% of people can't deeply understand the description of China's 'vast territory and abundant resources, beautiful mountains and rivers' in elementary school textbooks as to what kind of scenery it is~ 🍃 This time I went to one of our own national parks—'Sanjiangyuan National Park' Situated on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, with an average altitude of 4500 meters Making it one of the world's highest, largest And most complete alpine ecological systems of natural heritage 🍃 Here we trekked all the way and witnessed Danxia landforms, snow peaks, deserts, glaciers, lakes, wetlands, and a variety of wildlife up close 🍃 ✅Wildlife paradise Sanjiangyuan area is one of the regions with the highest density of large carnivores in the world No need to go to Africa or America You can see a lot of wildlife right at your doorstep What kind of divine experience is that❓❗️ - Large herds of blue sheep, countless Tibetan hares and pikas, the massive Thorold's deer, the elusive musk deer, the Tibetan antelope with its young, the elegant black-necked crane, the running Tibetan wild ass, the expressive Tibetan fox, the adorable Tibetan gazelle, the bearded vulture, the peregrine falcon, the bar-headed goose, the ruddy shelduck, wolf packs... It's like stepping into 🏃 'Animal World' - My favorite is the Tibetan antelope's great migration every summer, the scene is truly spectacular Standing there at that moment, you can feel the wonder of nature very clearly❗️ - ✅Donggecuona Lake 'The lake surrounded by a thousand mountains', next to Qinghai's sacred mountain Animaqing A blue lake like a pool of seawater, with sunlight sprinkling on the surface✨ You can feed the black-headed gulls that nest by the lake (not afraid of people at all), and take photos 📸 that turn out great - The nearby wetlands have different colors of grass We also found traces of snow leopards in the Valley of Strange Rocks, and we followed the tracks and found a pile of snow leopard 💩 Felt a different kind of primitiveness and roughness from the traditional scenery~ 🍃 📋Strategy 🕘Best travel season: End of March - November 🎒Travel gear: Sun protection, warm clothing, windbreaker, hiking shoes/sneakers, backpack, trekking poles, water bladder, altitude sickness medication 🍃 ⚠️Tips ⭕️For observing wildlife, it is recommended to carry a long-focus camera/high-power binoculars. ⭕️At the end of the trip, you will receive a unique numbered visitor certificate, which can be used to collect stamps for a national park version 'passport', very meaningful~ ⭕️Familiarize yourself with the direction of the clock, many animals will appear while driving, and the leader will prompt the direction of the car's clock. 🍃 Due to the word limit, that's all for today's share! More stunning views of the Sanjiangyuan National Park will be updated later
