There may be times when the greatest significance of a scenic spot for girls is to take photos. When a scenic spot is very interesting, it is to look at the scenery and play interesting things, and then it is to take photos. There are aunts taking photos with scarves on the top and our selfies on the bottom. Basic information
1. About eating
Before I came to the northwest, my impression of the food in the northwest was: all kinds of pasta. The summary after coming is: pasta+beef and mutton+various snacks+dairy products.
compared with other areas, the food style in northwest China is simple, rough, natural and thick.
There is a problem that "pasta is the main food, with more meat and less vegetables" in the northwest. Most of the most famous northwest diets are pasta.
the traditional breakfast in northwest China is a bowl of beef noodles, and lunch and dinner is a bowl of noodles. They said that if they were allowed to eat, they always felt that they were not full. That's how they felt.
these are the noodles and firecrackers we have eaten.
here you can eat one hundred ways to eat beef and mutton. You can handle mutton, kebabs, roast whole sheep, kang mutton, mutton head casserole, etc., as well as Xinjiang saute spicy chicken. Because the fishy smell of beef and mutton is relatively heavy, the practice is generally to add various seasonings and barbecue, so diners remember to stop!
finally, you can recommend the dried fruits here. Northwest China is very close to Xinjiang, so all kinds of dried fruits are also rich. Li Guang almond, Elaeagnus angustifolia, raisins and so on, many names have never been heard. I also entered a dozen, and when I went home, I wrote travel notes and ate them, and my mouth was healthy and delicious.
2. About staying in the northwest, the accommodation is generally simple, usually in hotels around Samsung. It is amazing that many hotels are paved by three people.
Most hotels use solar water heaters, so hot water may be a problem. Pay attention!
From Xining to Dunhuang and back to Xining, you can obviously feel that the local infrastructure is getting better and better and the hotels are becoming more and more advanced. So the Jinsha Bay Villa in Dunhuang is luxurious, but I still like the Black Horse River best. It's the first time I saw a three-person shop and an electric blanket, and I feel so fresh.
3. About the trip
When you come to the northwest, you must charter a car!
I heard from many friends that it was cool to drive in Tibet or something. But after this chartered tour, I think driving by car is really self-torture! Because I think the driver is really tired, 3 kilometers, our driver drinks red bull and coffee every day to refresh himself, which is so hard ~ < P > Fortunately, we found a chartered driver online this time, and I really like it!
what's good about chartered cars?
First, the driver is very familiar with this route, so he is not afraid of detours and can control the time well!
Our driver's eldest brother has been running this route for more than ten years. You only need to talk to him about those points, and he will know how many days you traveled, which is really awesome!
second, it's not expensive to follow him. Because I have been running this route, I am particularly familiar with the food and shelter on the road. Every store we go to is a storefront with a very good reputation recognized by local people, so every meal is very authentic and delicious.
thirdly, I really made a new friend. Ha, ha, ha, our driver's eldest brother is not good at words, but he is very humorous. Thanks to his guidance, I am very happy to talk and listen to the local customs along the way. Preparation
First, observe the weather and prepare clothes. The temperature difference between day and night in Xining is very large. You can wear short sleeves during the day, but you should wear a big cotton-padded jacket at night. So it is suggested that if you go in April, you should wear spring and autumn clothes inside and a thick coat outside! The picture below basically shows the temperature and weather of our days!
second, we should do a good job in sun protection. In the arid and high-altitude areas in northwest China, ultraviolet rays are much higher than those in coastal Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, so we must do a good job of sun protection. Especially when girls want to go outdoors, I basically spray sunscreen every 2 hours. I think Annasun should be the best sunscreen in the world, but the water baby spray used by my peers looks good this time!
Third, pay attention to rest and prevent altitude sickness. The altitude of Qinghai where we went is 3+, and that of Zhejiang is only a few hundred, so we should take some precautions. However, it is said that many altitude sickness are psychological effects. Anyway, I have no special reaction this time, but I occasionally have tinnitus.
fourth, take medicine. Before I came, my friend specially stuffed me with some drugs to reduce fire and diminish inflammation. Because the weather in the northwest is dry and most of the food I eat is barbecue, it is very easy to get angry. I suggest you drink plenty of water and balance your diet with vegetables and fruits. However, vegetables are particularly expensive in the northwest!
fifth, bring the shooting equipment. It is also the first time for me to appreciate the power of telephoto. Because many scenery in this place in the northwest is really good, so if you want to take a portrait, you must take a telephoto. If you want to take a scenery, you must take a wide angle. You won't regret it!
every time I go out, I have to spend a lot of money on clothes besides buying air tickets and booking hotels. Because of the matching of clothes in the process of traveling, the degree of cooperation with the overall environment is too important for a photo. So I attach great importance to the choice of clothes before traveling.
after all, girl paper, who doesn't want to be beautiful when traveling by themselves!
1. Pilgrimage in red and white retro suits
There are many Tibetans in Qinghai, so you will see many prayers. They are called prayer flags because they are all printed with Buddhist scriptures. In the eyes of people who believe in Tibetan Buddhism, the prayer flags that dance with the wind are just chanting once, constantly conveying people's wishes to God and praying for God's blessing. In this way, the prayer flags become the link between God and man. Where the wind is, it means where the gods are, and it also means where people pray for the gods. The wind banners are entrusted with people's good wishes.
The colors of prayer flags are fixed and colorful, so usually, if it is a colored background, in order to blend in well with the environment and highlight yourself, then white should be the best choice!
2. What can be more beautiful than the little yellow skirt in Dachaidan Salt Lake
When taking pictures, clothes must be in contrast colors. Before I came, I checked the approximate color of the salt lake, which is white and blue, so yellow or red is the best color for taking pictures, so that people can find you from the photos at a glance!
look, did you see me at a glance!
3. The red dress is definitely the standard of Dunhuang desert.
I saw many samples before I came, and most of the appearances in the desert were long red dresses. Therefore, a red skirt or a long skirt with ethnic style is definitely a standard in the desert ~
4. Make an elegant little red riding hood in colorful Danxia in Zhangye, so today's clothes are white. Everyone knows that I like red and yellow very much, but when I come to Danxia, which is dominated by red and yellow tones, I avoid color contrast, so white is definitely the best match.
5. How can you escape from ghost city if you don't dress yourself up?
Careful friends may have found that the tone of ghost city is a bit like that of the desert, so I recommend wearing red or bright colors that don't contrast.
6. Five colors of Qinghai Lake
Because the colors of the seaside are relatively simple, that is, blue and white, this time we brought balloons and added the colors of clothes to make up five colors. Isn't it particularly rich and beautiful?
7. Decorating the beauty of the Mogao Grottoes with floral skirts
This set is also a random combination by me. I just want to say that this kind of big scene full of history is a little fresh and the effect is also a drop! Action
In the past, I took photos. Although I have done a lot of actions by my eldest cousin and Amway in NiNi, I still feel poor when I stand in front of the camera. So these are some tried-and-tested signature photo actions that I have summed up in this trip, and I will share them with you!
first, hold your chin. This is the most used chin rest this time! The gospel of big sister paper, it's tried and used again and again, and it's useful again and again. As long as you hold your chin, isn't it not ugly?
Second, interaction.
I don't put this picture to show that I want to ride a camel. I think the photo can show the story and fun of a journey. So grab all the characteristics of the trip to take photos and interact, and such works will have unexpected effects! This photo of mine was put on the buzz, but it was purified. Happy!
third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth, please look at the picture, hee hee!
