When traveling to Northwest China, the Qarhan Salt Lake is worth adding to your check-in list

When traveling to the northwest, you must not miss the Qarhan Salt Lake! Those who haven't been there will really regret it~😌 The beauty of Chaka Salt Lake is greatly affected by the weather, but the Qarhan Salt Lake has its own "beauty filter", which can reach new heights of beauty no matter what the weather is! 📌 Tourists share their experiences on good locations for taking photos ❶ Emerald Channel (midpoint where the sightseeing bus arrives): When taking a bird’s-eye view of the salt flats, the blue-green brine will naturally create an effect like a “mirror in the sky”. ❷ Salt Flower Secret Realm (about 300 meters towards the salt mining area): Step on the salt crystal layer that makes a creaking sound, focus the camera on the details of the salt flowers, and the hair in the picture seems to be glowing. ❸ Sunset Salt Bridge (after 18:30): At this time, the entire salt lake will turn into the color of orange soda. The silhouette shot in a white dress is so beautiful that it will leave you speechless. ⚠️ The truth about the Qarhan Salt Lake ✔️ No need for color adjustment when the weather is clear! The lake water itself has a soft light effect. On cloudy days, the lake water will appear in a Morandi gray tone, which is also very high-end. ✔️ The reflection of the salt flat is like a natural reflector, even oily skin can be photographed to look cool and white. ✔️ Drones are allowed in the scenic area! However, please note that brine is corrosive, so remember to put a protective film on the drone. 👗 Dressing tips: Wearing a red skirt is not recommended! Wearing a red skirt not only has a 99% chance of you wearing the same clothes as others, it also makes you look darker. 💡We recommend clothes in avocado green or cream yellow, which contrast with the color of the salt lake and make it very easy to take beautiful photos. 💡 Remember to wear sunglasses! The salt flats are very reflective, so wearing sunglasses can not only protect your eyes, but also make your eyes appear particularly deep in the photos you take. 🌐 Sharing of real travel experience "The moment I stood on the salt bridge, I even felt that breathing would destroy the purity here!" - Stepping on the salt crust feels like stepping on crispy rice crackers, and the brine is so blue that people can't help but want to jump in and swim (dangerous! The brine contains magnesium ions that can burn the skin). ——There are often strong winds in the salt lake! Tying your hair up is more suitable for taking photos than letting it down (this is my personal experience 😭).
