#Mainland Travel
Caohai Nature Reserve is a famous tourist attraction in Weining County, Guizhou Province, China. Thousands of tourists come here for sightseeing and vacation every day. This time I will introduce a travel guide to Caohai Nature Reserve.
transportation:
3 hours direct from Guiyang (self-driving navigation "Weining Caohai North Slope")
High-speed rail to Bijie Station → bus/total 1h (50r per person)
Highlight the key points! The North Bank has fewer tourists and a better ecology, while the South Bank is maturely developed but has a strong commercial component. I highly recommend the North Bank!

cost:
▪️Tickets: Free! free! free! (Cruise boat 30-60r/person)
▪️Eat: Sour soup fish hotpot 40 per person, roasted potato 2r/each
▪️Accommodation: Free round trip on the same day, 100+ per night in Weining County

Birdwatchers screaming (December-March only)
The world's largest wintering ground for black-necked cranes! Thousands of migratory birds party here every year, and the crane-watching trail at Jiangjiawan Wharf on the north bank is amazing! Remember to bring a telephoto lens and wear light-colored clothes for better photos📸

The lake surface will glow after 15:00✨
The sunshine on the plateau is the most transparent in the afternoon. Rent a metal boat (bargained to 15r/person!) and row towards Yangguan Mountain. The lake water is crystal clear, the water plants sway like emeralds, and the boatman will sing folk songs~

Hiking party ecstasy secret place
The North Bank Ecological Trail is 6km long, and you can meet villagers grazing in half an hour. Crouching on the meadow waiting for a sunset, the lake gradually changes from mint green to an orange sea, so beautiful that I am speechless
