In the past week, Gao Yousi and his party set off from the Qinghai Provincial Museum, "closer" to Qinghai Lake, the largest saltwater lake in China in the rain, crossed Longyang Gorge, "the first dam of the Yellow River" by boat, and visited the "Hometown of Regong Art" colleagues to experience "artisans". "Techniques, experience the folk customs of Hehuang in the "fireworks" of Ping'an Ancient Post.
Reading, starting a business, traveling, and living in China for more than ten years, Gao Yousi, a young Israeli "post-90s", has visited many cities.
After the trip, he called Qinghai "the best travel destination in China": fresh food to suit the appetite, beautiful scenery beyond the "busy" eyes, warm, friendly and intelligent locals...
"Sitting on a boat, watching the pure turquoise water at the source of the Yellow River, and the cool wind blowing away the summer heat." Gao Yousi said, "Not to mention Qinghai Lake, it seems to be 'infinite', and when you are in it, you only feel Shocked, as if I forgot myself."
"Qinghai was introduced on the Internet as the 'roof of the world', and when I came, I really felt that 'everything is under my feet'." Gao Yousi's partner Lulu is also from Israel. "I drove over the mountains, one after another, as if there was no end. Eagles circled in the sky. , the yaks graze freely, and they will not be frightened when approaching them, the cars on the road will let the animals, there is nothing more beautiful than here." She said.
"The beautiful scenery can be understood through videos, photos, and web pages," Gao Yousi thinks. "In contrast, the harmonious coexistence between people and nature can only be experienced if you have been here."
From the magnificent water conservancy project in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, to the "photovoltaic ocean" where the Gobi Desert has become an oasis, "Qinghai is like a mirror, reflecting my hometown." Here, Gao Yousi realized the efforts of people to reduce carbon emissions and protect the ecology. investment and effort.
"Having clean air, clear rivers, and protecting wild animals are the common aspirations of people all over the world." In Gao Yousi's view, finding commonalities is the basis for building friendship, "China and Israel have a long history, and I hope more Israeli companies have entered Qinghai, learned about Qinghai, and cooperated in clean energy technologies."
"The most memorable thing is the people here." Gao Yousi said, "In the chat, they will definitely talk about wild animals, grasslands, mountains, lakes, rivers. People who live in beautiful scenery know how to keep the beautiful scenery."

"I also saw that local young people care about history, and spontaneously innovate ways to protect, present, and spread ancient traditions." Recalling what he saw and heard during the trip, Gao Yousi said: "Each nation is dedicated to its own clothing, food, Artistic pride and a strong sense of responsibility to local culture.”
He feels that, unlike the dependence on mobile phones, the Internet and the boom in e-commerce, people here are more concerned about the "past": "Because they know that protection is development, rather than 'what I want', they are more concerned about 'who I am'. Tradition can look to the future.”
"There are many prehistoric civilization sites in Qinghai, which proves that the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is one of the earliest areas where human beings thrived. Until now, people still maintain their own rhythm, live very 'real', and are connected to the 'root' of the land." Gao Yousi said.
Gao Yousi and Lulu have not yet fully understood the "poetry and distance" that the Chinese seek.
For them, the knowledge gained during the journey and the "beautiful" encounters need to be digested slowly.
"Next time, we have to put aside all the work and come to Qinghai to find this feeling." They said with a smile, "The end of the journey is the beginning of understanding." (End)
