Qinghai Lake – biggest salt water lake of China

The area of Qinghai Lake, the biggest salt water lake of China, is 4,547km2. It sits among high mountains and grasslands like a huge jade dish.

The water color of Qinghai Lake changes with the depth of water and temperature. The water is blue when it is sunny and green when it is cloudy. There extends a tens of kilometers long golden sand band along the beach of the lake and the lands with rich grass are widespread around the lake. Therefore, the area of Qinghai Lake is a good natural pastoral land.

In the myths about Kunlun Mountain, Qinghai Lake is the homeland of the Western Mother Goddess and the fairy maiden named Jiutian Xuannu and a resort of the God on the earth.
