Qinghai tourism takes you to the north-eastern Tibetan plateau, a land of high lakes, grasslands and monasteries. Qinghai Lake is China’s largest saltwater lake, framed by rapeseed fields in July, and Xining is a friendly provincial capital where Tibetan, Hui and Han cultures meet. Ta’er Monastery nearby is one of the great Gelug monasteries. The altitude is above 2,200 metres, so take it slowly. June to September is the best time, and winters are bitterly cold.

June to September is best. The rapeseed flowers at Qinghai Lake bloom in July, and winter temperatures drop very low.
Three days cover Xining, Ta'er Monastery and Qinghai Lake. Allow an extra day to acclimatise.
Fly or take a train to Xining, which is well connected to Lanzhou, Xi'an and Beijing. Qinghai Lake is about three hours by road.
