One step west of Beijing is Wulanchabu, this sentence has been deeply rooted in my heart at this time. The Inner Mongolia grassland has always been my favorite place. I like the blue sky and white clouds there, the herds of cattle and sheep there, the summer resort there in summer, and the golden eyes in autumn...

Ulanqab is the nearest city to Beijing. The average summer temperature here is 18 degrees, and there are 331 days of fine weather every year. Here is the endless grassland Huitengxile, Chahar Volcanic Group and so on.

【first day】

On August 13, 2019, following the 2nd Inner Mongolia Internet Celebrity Grassland Tournament, I took a bus at the Yuanmingyuan Subway Station in Beijing. There was no traffic jam on the road of nearly 400 kilometers, and I arrived in Ulanqab in more than four hours. If it only takes three hours by car, 40 minutes by plane, and 90 minutes by high-speed rail, isn’t it very convenient? At the Ulanqab Folk Custom Hotel, I participated in the welcome dinner of the Mengju Night and received warm hospitality from the Mongolian people.

【the next day】

On the morning of 8.14, the launching ceremony of the 2nd Inner Mongolia Internet Celebrity Grassland Tournament was launched in Jining Golden Eagle Plaza, the first Internet celebrity incubation base in Inner Mongolia, Wulanchabu. In a warm atmosphere, leaders at all levels and Internet celebrities from all over the country Card and the media witnessed this grand scene. At the launching ceremony, we enjoyed the Matouqin performance, the Mongolian catwalk in costumes and the high-pitched Mongolian songs of the grassland brothers and sisters.

【Lin Hu Gu Sai】

In August, the temperature in Ulanqab is suitable. Walk into the Dayulu Forest Hugusai Tourist Area, which is located in Dayushu Township, Zhuozi County. Dayushu Village, where Dayushu is located, was an ancient town in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it is also an old town associated with Kangxi. town. It is a complex of landscape ecological resources, Linhu tribe culture, and ecological recreation. It is a well-known landscape leisure tourism destination integrating sightseeing, experience, leisure, elderly care, vacation, and entertainment. The beautiful colorful slides in the scenic area attract tourists, sitting on the tires, wearing seat belts and rushing down, the screams are endless, exciting! Fun! Cool!

On both sides of the wooden plank road leading to the top of the mountain, I saw a lot of villas and courtyard cabins built on the hillside. I thought that if I could live here at night, I would be able to watch the stars.

Walking through the boardwalk and climbing the glass suspension bridge between the two mountains, the glass suspension bridge built between the two mountains appears in front of you. Although there are glass suspension bridges in many scenic spots in China, there are still differences. Looking up at the glass suspension bridge from another angle is really interesting. Walking on the blue sky is really pleasant!

Put on the protective gear and sit on the slide, master the speed with your own feet, it is fun, save time and effort, and slide to the ground in an instant. This is the Wulaichabrin Hugusai Scenic Area, and it is a good place for you to have fun! Blue sky and white clouds, good air!

[the third day]

Drive to the Wokuotai Tourist Reception Center, warmly welcomed by the people of Inner Mongolia, greet the vehicle on horseback, then offer hada and drink horse wine. The enthusiasm of the Inner Mongolian people is irresistible, such a big wine bowl makes me drunk just looking at it. This guy is awesome. He drank a bowl of wine sincerely for the enthusiasm of the Inner Mongolian people. He was really happy.

【Huanghuagou Ecological Scenic Spot】

At the western end of the Huitengxile Grassland is a winding valley. This valley is the remains of ancient glaciers, which were formed due to the distortion and fracture of the surface during the movement of the earth's crust. The valley is more than 10 kilometers long, the ditch is about 300 meters deep, and 100-200 meters wide. This is Huanghuagou, known as the famous river outside the Great Wall. Huanghuagou has unique topography and beautiful natural landscape.

Inner Mongolia Huitengxile Huanghuagou Ecological Scenic Spot is a very interesting place, suitable for everyone to visit. There are many strange stones in Huanghuagou, which are tall and magnificent. It is not as steep as a knife and axe, but round, playful and lovely.

The sky in Inner Mongolia is beautiful, and there are blue sky and white clouds every day when you look up. When you walk to the commanding height not far from the gate, there is an obo, surrounded by wind horse flags, which is very spectacular, and the incense here is also very strong. "Worshiping Aobao" is the source of Shamanism. Shamanism has three beliefs, one is nature worship, the other is totem worship, and the third is ancestor worship. The purpose of worshiping Obo is to worship nature.

Huitengxile is Mongolian, which means cold mountain ridge in Chinese. It is located in the middle of Ulanqab City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, south of Kebul Town, Chahar Right Middle Banner, on the northern side of Yinshan Mountain, 430 kilometers away from the capital Beijing. Walking into Huanghuagou, the stones on the mountains are a little strange. The stones are not like the "soil and rocks" on other mountains, but are all exposed, round and simple, mottled and mottled, with vertical and horizontal textures, which look very old-fashioned and vigorous. .

The scenic spot is very user-friendly. There are cable cars for transportation, storage cars and small trains. You can ride the whole journey for free as long as you buy tickets. Queued up to take the cable car, the scenery along the way is good, with flowers, grass, and strange rocks. Going down to the bottom of the valley is Huanghua Town, where there are glass suspension bridges, glass slides for surfing, bumper cars, children's playgrounds and many other attractions, attracting many tourists to play. These entertainment items are charged separately.

Walk through the tourist area and take the livestock car, cable car, and small train to return to the gate on the north side, so that you will not be tired at all when you go in and out of the south gate and the north gate.

Huanghuagou really deserves to be called a cold mountain ridge. Let me witness here: wearing a leather jacket in the morning and wearing gauze in the afternoon, and eating watermelon around the stove. Although the tour guide also told me that it was colder before coming here, I thought it would be fine to go back earlier. But at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the sky changed its face mercilessly without warning, the wind was blowing, and it felt very cold, like the arrival of winter. At this moment, I wrapped all the clothes I brought, but I still couldn't resist the attack of the icy cold wind.

In order to avoid the cold wind, we walked quickly to the small train station, who knows that the small train has no glass, sitting in the car in the cold weather, it is too cold to be blown by the wind, it is freezing and wearing thin clothes tourists. Remind everyone to pay attention: when you come to Huanghuagou to play, you must bring enough warm clothes!

Back at the visitor center, the caring organizer served brown sugar and shredded ginger soup for dinner to keep everyone away from the cold, and a bowl of it warmed up a lot. After dinner, watch the characteristic grassland performance, the indoor sitcom "Meeting in Obao".

Aobao is also called Obo, which means "duizi" in Mongolian. Aobao was originally used as a road or boundary sign, and later evolved into a place to worship mountain gods and road gods, which is similar to the earth temple of the Han nationality. Aobao is generally made of stones, but in the desert, it is made of wicker. Herdsmen sacrifice Obo every year in June and July. After the ceremony, traditional entertainment activities such as horse racing, archery, wrestling, singing, and dancing are held. Girls and boys take this opportunity to hide in the grass, talk about love, and tell each other heartfelt emotion.

The magnificent scene, enthusiastic Mongolian dance, acrobatic performance by two people at high altitude, and galloping horse team pushed the atmosphere to a climax step by step.

Moonlit Night [Aobao Meeting] The moon rose into the sky on the fifteenth day. A young man and woman expressed their love to each other and danced lingeringly. The lovers will finally get married. Let us pray for them.

[the fourth day]

In Huitengxile Grassland International Equestrian Performing Arts Town, watch "Empire Khan". There are nine parts: conscription, general training, expedition, women's resistance, love for life, and return to the grassland. Under the auspicious cloud and blue sky, the young and brave Mongolian knights drive the sturdy Mongolian horses, and reproduce the clank and iron bones of the children of the grassland with superb riding skills and superb acting skills. The knights are all equipped with unique skills, and they are galloping on the battlefield on galloping horseback, which is very enjoyable to watch.

The nation on horseback is truly well-deserved, and all of them have superb skills on horseback, which is admirable. In the comfortable days, the Mongolians who are good at singing and dancing often sing and dance, riding horses and archery to show their heroic appearance.

The International Equestrian Performing Arts Town is located beside the Haystack Mountain in the Huitengxile Grassland. It is a multi-functional scenic spot integrating live performances, folk custom exhibitions, flower sea tours, and ethnic characteristic commercial streets. The town covers an area of ​​16,000 square meters of large-scale live performance venues, shaded stands that can accommodate 3,413 people, more than 400 parking spaces, landscape yurts, wooden plank roads and other facilities, and there are warriors from Mongolia who have undergone strict training to lead us together Explore the civilization on horseback, equestrian pressure includes "flip and stand", "side concealment", "hiding in the stirrups" and the thrilling horse-stacking arhat on horseback. Present a visual feast for tourists, allowing them to experience the chicness and elegance of the children of the grassland as if they were on the scene, and jointly explore the magic and excitement of the vast grassland.

【Ulan Hada Volcanic Geopark】

There is a volcanic eruption belt in Inner Mongolia: from the Nuomin River Volcanic Group on the east slope of the northern section of the Greater Khingan Mountains in the north, through the Aershan-Chaihe Volcanic Group, Xilinhot-Abaga Volcanic Group in the Greater Khingan Mountains, and to the Wu The Lan Hada Volcanic Group stretches for nearly a thousand kilometers, among which the Ulan Hada Volcanic Group was not known to the volcanology circles at home and abroad until 2012.

Ulan Hada Volcanic Geopark is known as a natural "volcanic museum" because of its unique geological structure. The geopark gathers grassland volcanoes, lava landforms and barrier lake landscapes. Due to time constraints, we only visited the No. 3 Volcano North Alchemy Furnace.

The most prominent feature of this volcanic belt is its youth: it entered the peak period of activity from the late Pleistocene of the Quaternary (about 120,000 years ago). But in fact, most of the volcanoes in this volcanic belt erupted 40,000-60,000 years ago. What is especially valuable is that some of these volcanoes erupted in the Holocene, that is, 10,000 years ago, and there are even volcanoes that erupted 2,000 years ago.

The most famous Volcano No. 3 (Northern Alchemy Furnace) has an artificial trail to climb to the top, and it only takes 10 minutes to walk up the volcano.

On the road, you can take pictures of the other side of the volcano, the complete and beautiful view of Volcano No. 3, which coincides with the approaching sunset, and the soft light covers the volcano with a layer of golden light. Time is running out, I have to go, if I have the opportunity to come again, I must have a good time around.

【Accommodation in Ulanqab】

The hotels in Ulanqab are all great, and the yurts in the scenic area are also very distinctive. We stayed at Howard Johnson Dormund Plaza Jining. This is a very nice hotel. The lobby of the hotel is luxurious and spacious, the service attitude is very good, the room facilities are complete, and the large windows that can see the scenery have a wide view. I like the size of the bathroom the most. tub. The hotel not only has complete facilities and is comfortable to stay in, but also the food is first-class and delicious. Inner Mongolian specialty grilled lamb chops, fried fruits, stewed beef brisket with tomatoes, etc., all of which are delicious in color, fragrance and taste.

The Coble International Hotel, located in Chahar Right Middle Banner, Ulan Qab, is a great hotel with comfortable accommodation, and the large projection screen is a highlight. I really want to lie on a soft bed and watch dramas all night.

There are villas and courtyard houses built on the hillside in Linhugusai. If you can live there at night, you will be able to watch the stars. Due to time constraints, we stayed at the Baihualin Ecological Hotel in the scenic area.

【Prairie Diet】

Inner Mongolia has original and special catering, which fully embodies the long history and broad spirit of Mongolian food culture. Mainly include: fried rice, milk tea, finger meat, roasted leg of lamb, roasted whole lamb, cheese, milk skin, milk tofu, kumiss, etc., all of which are non-polluting green food produced locally. The Mongolian nation is world-renowned for its hospitality and politeness. Receiving guests, regardless of rich or poor, is a kind hospitality. First, milk food, fried rice, cakes and other teas are served, and freshly brewed milk tea is poured to quench the thirst and hunger of the guests. Then toast, play music, sing, add to the fun of the guests, eat after drinking, and entertain the guests with a whole sheep banquet, sheep back banquet, and hand meat banquet.

When you come to Inner Mongolia, you must drink milk tea, and I love this one. Ulanqab, the potato capital of China, how can there be no potatoes, the potatoes here, the Prime Minister said delicious. Potatoes can be made into many different types of delicacies, all of which taste good.
