![Qinghai Lake is China's largest inland lake and its largest salt-water lake. It is one of the top five most beautiful lakes in China ranked by China National Geographic magazine. The water in Qinghai Lake is not a single color, but instead a palette of colors during different seasons and when viewed from different angles. The shades range from light green, blue, green, and grey, to orange and yellow. The lake has a number of attractions that draw ornithologists, campers, hikers, botanists, swimmers, sailors, fishermen, and nomads to come here. The beauty of the lake lies in its salty vastness and the remote peace that it instills. Highlights of the lake include Bird Island, a peninsular in the westernmost part of the lake. For most of the summer rare avian species can be seen here in large numbers. [Photo: Global Times]](http://p1.img.cctvpic.com/20091116/images/1258342004653_1258342004653_r.jpg) |
