Some incredible sand sculptures can be seen by the Qinghai Lake in Northwest China. Qinghai Lake is the largest lake in the country and is known for its outstanding scenery. Now with the addition of these temporary sculptures what better reason to pay it a visit.

This sculpture tells the story of the origins of Qinghai Lake. Legend has it that it came to being when a god from heaven was battling the Monkey King. During a break in between fights they drank from a spring, and the spring later overflowed to become Qinghai Lake.

Modern children's stories are also depicted in sand. The "pleasant goat and big big wolf" has been a major hit with children for years.

"I've seen so many cartoons depicted here. I'm really fascinated. It's great!"

"I love this place! The blue sky and blue lake coupled with the sculptures form a great experience."

Japanese cartoons such have "Spirited Away" and Disney Classics "Aladdin" and "Snow White and the 7 dwarfs" also feature. All of these sculptures exemplify sublime skill and sharp attention to detail. The 23 sand sculptures will be available for all to see until October.
