Скачать или смотреть Secrets of Qinghai Lake: Discovering Nomadic Culture at a Holy Tibetan Lake

In this video we leave the crowds around Qinghai Lake and explore real life on the plateau at one of Tibet’s four holiest lakes. We discover secrets of the lake and visit rural Tibetan nomads in the remote mountains along the lake shore.

Qinghai Lake for the last several years has offered only very touristy sites that are full of Chinese tour buses. They take a selfie of the lake and then get back on the big tour bus without ever really seeing what the lake is about: grassland ecology, nomadic lifestyle, high altitude villages, and incredible culture.

The lake itself is 120km long and offers a gorgeous view across huge spans of bright, turquoise waves. However, the 151 area, as the number one tourist destination in Qinghai Province, has been notorious for traffic, crowds, overpriced hotels, and cheesy, gimmicky photo opportunities like taking a picture on a camel brought in from Mongolia. But we want to offer something totally different. We want to help you see the REAL nomadic life that existed long before the tourist traps.
