A trip to Qinghai healed me for a whole year 🩹

This is not abroad! It’s the place in China that looks most like an alien planet 🚴 Sheep blocking the road during the lake cycling 🌅 Golden splashes caused by the migration of Huangyu fish at sunrise 🧣 Close-up of a Tibetan grandma braiding colorful hair At Qinghai Lake— ✔️ Spend 50 yuan to ride a horse to the center of the lake ✔️ Shoot the Milky Way reflecting on the lake at 3 a.m. But the most stunning is the roaring sound of blue ice cracks in winter Photography: 👗 The endless reflection of a girl in a red dress dancing on the mirror-like surface 🚂 Salt crystals sparkling as the small train passes by 🕶️ The funny expression of tourists wearing sunglasses while eating salt ice cream At Chaka— Modeling for the "Sky Mirror" in the morning (phone dropping into the salt lake with a scream sound effect) Digging salt caves to shoot the "underground palace" in the afternoon (close-up of salt crystals refracting rainbows) The secret is… (whispering) the pink salt lake after rain at dusk is the real beauty! 🛣️ U-shaped highway aerial shot looks like it goes straight to the sky 📸 Truck roaring past while checking in at Route 66 sign 🏜️ Drone flying through mushroom rocks at Water Yadan On this loneliest highway— ✔️ Shoot wild scenes like "Westworld" (slow-motion cowboy hat flick) ✔️ Stay overnight at Mars Camp to watch the Milky Way arch (red light effect inside the tent) But experienced drivers will tell you… the steering wheel loses control in the crosswind zone! In Qinghai— Pray by turning prayer wheels in the morning (copper bell ASMR sound) Get trampled by Tibetan kids racing horses in the afternoon (laughter mixed with horse hooves) But the most heartwarming is… (music stops suddenly) the temperature of the free butter tea at the herdsman’s home.
