Qinghai Tibetan Culture Museum
AAnonymous UserThe Tibetan variety is rich, the layout is reasonable, and it is worth watching. The supporting catering is not too comprehensive. After all, it is a day to watch the exhibition here. It would be better to have a variety of snacks, fast food and rest places to choose from.
Qinghai Province Museum
勇勇敢的哥Qinghai Provincial Museum has Tibetan Buddhist treasures from the Neolithic Age, Bronze Age, Han and Jin Dynasties, and Ming and Qing Dynasties... There are so many things to see that it's hard to take them all in. I suggest you buy a picture album and take it home to take a closer look.
Riyue Mountains (Sun and Moon Mountains)
蜡蜡笔青团🍒Many people say that Sun Moon Mountain is very boring, but I don't think it. I think the off-season Sun Moon Mountain is great! The scenery is beautiful, and there are camels, yaks, and lambs. Walk slowly to enjoy the scenery that you have never seen before and take beautiful photos. The wind is a bit big, but it does not affect. I still recommend everyone to go once! ! !
Xining Wildlife Park
AAnonymous UserThis is a very cost-effective wildlife park where you can watch various wild animals up close. There are not many tourists, and you can pay extra to take a battery car to visit various areas. Plateau elves such as snow leopards, manuls and desert cats are more active in the afternoon.
Dongguan Mosque
AalessiainchinaWe came back to the Mosque twice, as first time we left with a sort of disappointment. The place, people and atmosphere are special, however the architecture is not as impressive. What is truly impressive is the Muslim district overall, especially the market. We bought fruit and bread and enjoyed lunch at one of the stalls, sharing a table with another local family. Everything was beyond imagination: colors, smells, tastes… A festival for the senses and the heart!Mosque: 3/5⭐️⭐️⭐️Market/atmosphere/people: 6/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Central Square
秋秋妹69The Central Square is located on the banks of the Nanchuan River in Xining. It is one of the city landmarks of Xining. The surrounding area is the most lively central urban area of Xining. The scenery along the river is also good. What is worth seeing is in the evening, when many people will dance in the square. It is very lively and has the unique characteristics of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
Xining People's Park
琉琉璃仙境Xining's People's Park is an open-ended free-ticket park. The park completed the last renovation six years ago, adding stone pillars and chains to the original West Lake to strengthen safety and prevent falling water. The original lake center is a new white tower in the mountain to increase ornamentalism, and rebuild the West Lake restaurant for tourists to relax and taste food. In addition, the park has built a new giant Ferris wheel and other amusement facilities for weekend citizens to play with children. In the park, visitors can enjoy garden design pavilions and corridors. Wild ducks often swim in the lake or aisles. Xining People's Park is becoming an ideal place for people to travel with their families on weekends.
