Once arrived at main entrance of the Qinghai Lake, your driver will assistance you to purchase your tickets (at your own expense), and tell you where he will be waiting for you, then you will enjoy your own time to explore Qinghai Lake. When you’re ready, you will be returned back to your hotel/place of accommodation safely.
Qinghai Lake, in Mongolian language means blue lake. It is the largest inland lake as well as the largest saline lake in China. The source of Qinghai Lake relies on the direct runoff and rainfalls, as well, another over 40 rivers empty into the lake with the Buha River being the largest. Qinghai Lake is enveloped by lofty mountains, and it has two sub-lakes, a saline Gahai Lake and a freshwater Erhai Lake. You will have enough time to explore the whole area on your own.
