Qarhan Salt Lake, China's largest salt lake, is located in Golmud City, northwest China's Qinghai Province, covering an area of over 5,800 square kilometers. "Qarhan" means "world of salt" in Mongolian.
Formed hundreds of millions of years ago, the salt lake was once part of a vast ocean. Renowned for its green waters, the lake's appearance changes depending on the light and weather conditions, offering a striking visual gradient. This natural wonder has become a popular tourist destination.
