Qinghai Lake is the largest lake in China that stretches over 1600 square miles. Tour this lake to witness local agricultural practices along the banks.  The lake itself is known for its beautiful colors. Due to the salinity of the water, the aquatic life, and the reflections of the surrounding green mountains, the lake is alive with greens, blues, and yellows.  Bird watchers can visit Bird Island, a natural gathering point for thousands of birds. There are also opportunities to visit the homes of the Tibetan natives and experience their culture.  Qinghai Lake is also near the Silk Road, another must see Chinese landmark.
