What are the tourist attractions in Xining, the capital city of Qinghai Province?
Speaking of Xining, many people may not be familiar with it. Today, I will introduce this city to you. First of all, Xining is the capital city of Qinghai Province, located in the east of Qinghai Province, and is the eastern gateway of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. In addition, Xining has a long history. Due to its superior geographical location, Xining has always been a major traffic artery and military fortress in the northwest. It is precisely because of this that Xining has also won the reputation of "locking the key in the west sea and hiding the throat in the sea".
Then why are people unfamiliar with Xining? I think it may be because the tourist attractions in this city are more famous than the city itself. Xining is rich in tourism resources and a bright pearl on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Today, I will introduce you to three scenic spots in Xining. Don't forget to punch in when you travel to Xining.
First, introduce the Grand Mosque in Dongguan. The temple was built very early, but it was repeatedly destroyed in the long history. The building you are visiting now was rebuilt in 19 13. It is one of the four mosques in northwest China. The architectural style of this temple is very unique. It is an Islamic building integrating towers, walls and temples, and it is also the highest institution for the study of Islamic classics.
The second place is the ancient city of Tangar that appeared not long ago. The ancient city was built during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty and has a history of more than 600 years. Because of its superior geographical location, the ancient city has been welcomed by business travelers since its establishment, and it is known as "tea horse merchant" and "Little Beijing".

Laoye Mountain, located on the Beichuan River in the east of Qiaotou Town, Datong County, Xining City, is known as "Wudang in the North", so why is this mountain called Laoye Mountain?

As a whole, Laoye Mountain runs from northwest to southeast, with majestic mountains and picturesque scenery.

1, Qinghai Lake
Qinghai Lake is also called Ku Counord, which means "blue sea" in Mongolian. Qinghai Lake Basin, located in the northeast of Qinghai Province, is the largest inland lake in China and the largest saltwater lake in China. It is formed by the fault subsidence between Datong Mountain, Sun Moon Mountain and Nanshan Mountain in Qinghai. There are five small islands in the lake, of which Haixinshan is the largest. Bird Island is located in the west of the lake, with an area of 0. 1 1 square kilometer. It is the breeding ground of 10 kinds of migratory birds, such as spotted geese, fish gulls, brown gulls and cormorants, with the number exceeding 100000. Bird Island Nature Reserve has been established. This lake is rich in Qinghai Lake naked carp. The lakeside grassland is a good natural pasture. On the endless lake, the blue waves are soaring, the snow-capped mountains are reflected, the fish are jubilant and the birds are soaring. Qinghai Lake is surrounded by vast grasslands. Lakeside is a natural pasture with abundant aquatic plants, open and flat terrain, abundant water resources and mild climate. On the prairie in summer and autumn, green bacteria are like carpets. Golden rape blossoms, fragrant in the wind; Herdsmen's tents are dotted around; Flocks of cattle and sheep fluttered like clouds.

Every July, a large area of rape blossoms on the north shore of Qinghai Lake, which has become an important scenic spot in Qinghai Lake. But if the main purpose of the trip is Bird Island, May is the best.
2. Sun Moon Mountain
In the early Tang Dynasty, Sun Moon Mountain was named Chiling. Located in the southwest of Huangyuan County and the southeast of Qinghai Lake, it is not only the junction of Huangyuan County and Gonghe County, but also the dividing line of Qinghai agricultural and pastoral areas. It is the only place for tourists to enter the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau at an altitude of 3,520 meters, so it is known as the "West Sea Barrier" and "Grassland Gateway". It is said that Princess Wencheng passed through this mountain when she entered Tibet. She climbed to the top and looked east, but she didn't see Chang 'an's hometown. Her sadness began in her heart. The empty mirror fell to the ground and split in two. Half of it turned into a golden sun and the other half into a silver moon. The sun and the moon complement each other and illuminate the journey to the west. It became a transit point for the exchange of materials and the exchange of envoys between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo. At present, there is a blue stone tablet with the words "Sun and Moon Mountain" standing at the mountain pass. On the top of the mountain, there are sun pavilions and moon pavilions that are far away from each other, and there is a unique Daotang River at the southern foot of the mountain. Standing on the top of the mountain, looking east, it is pastoral; Looking to the west, the blue waves of Qinghai Lake are rippling, and Haixin Mountain is beautiful and moving, which is quite different from the pastoral beauty. Therefore, tourists all say, "climbing the Sun, Moon and Mountain is another heavy day".
