Qarhan Salt Lake is located on the north side of Golmud City in the west of Qinghai Province, about 60 kilometers from downtown Golmud.

Qarhan Salt Lake is the largest salt lake in China and one of the most famous inland salt lakes in the world. As soon as you enter, you will first see a Salt Lake Museum, which shows the formation history and mining process of the Qarhan Salt Lake. In the scenic spot, there is a salt road called Thousand-Zhang Salt Bridge extending to the lake. Both sides of the salt lake are white salt crystals, and the water is crystal and green. It is a great place to photograph on sunny days as the surrounding scenery, blue sky and white clouds are all reflected in the lake.
