[Preface] Before I went to Ulanqab, the Bashang Grassland in Fengning, Hebei was all my imagination of the prairie in my heart. After going to Ulanqab, I really realized the meaning of endlessness.
After experiencing the hot dog days in the capital, I finally couldn’t help but plan a prairie trip with three or five friends. After thinking about it, it is suitable for short-distance self-driving. The first choice for summer vacation. The climate is pleasant and the scenery is beautiful. As far as national culture is concerned, Wulanchabu is the only one who thinks about it. Departed at noon on August 2nd and returned early in the morning on the 6th, four days and three nights, although the time was in a hurry, but I also got a little taste of the essence of the Mongolian grassland culture.


After the car drove into the border of Inner Mongolia, the straight expressway stretched to the end of the field of vision on the open grassland, and the mood became inexplicably happy. Blue sky and white clouds, long green grass, cattle and sheep all over the mountains, this is what the grassland in the dream looks like. The midday sun shone on the body as if it wanted to melt people. I gently stretched out my hand out of the car window to touch the blue sky like satin, the white clouds like cotton candy, and the green grass like washed. The flowers hid in the grass, like shy children, secretly showing their bright red faces.


【About Ulanqab】

The word "Ulanchabu" comes from the Mongolian language and means "red cliff". It is located in the middle of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, with a vast territory and pleasant natural scenery. Here are the beautiful Gegentala Grassland Tourist Area and Huitengxile Grassland, the Wannian Chahar Volcanic Rock Landform Archaeological Tourist Area, the mysterious Sumu Mountain Forest Park, the quiet Liangcheng Daihai and Tiger Mountain Ecological Parks, and Scenic spots such as Huangqihai and Huanghuagou, as well as Feilai Stone, Ping'an Cave, Yongxing Lake, etc. are also attractions not to be missed.
The first stop after we arrived in Jining was the Jining Battle Memorial Hall. The magnificent Jining Battle Memorial Hall, the Jining Battle Memorial Park, and the Jining Battle General Garden together constitute the "red culture" of Jining, which is a must-see for tourist groups. The project is also an important place for Jining people to remember the martyrs and recall history.
When we arrived at the Jining Battle Memorial Hall, we happened to catch up with the opening ceremony of the first Internet celebrity grassland tour competition on the main board of Ulanqab Tourism Group. We watched the excitement with our friends. The opening ceremony was very good. There was a matouqin played by an international master of matouqin Solo, there are Mongolian national costumes on the catwalk, and it is very interesting to experience the different Mongolian culture.

The history here was written by nomadic iron cavalry. The majestic wind blew across the grasslands, leaving behind the majestic ancient Great Wall. Wokuotai built an arsenal and a general platform here. Ge Tiema is still in my ears.


At noon, we ate a handful of mutton and local dishes in the urban area. In the afternoon, our group drove to the scenic spot of the International Equestrian Performing Arts Town to watch the large-scale performance show "Forever Wokuotai".


[International Equestrian Performing Arts Town Scenic Spot]


There is an international equestrian performing arts town next to the haystack hill in Huitengxile Grassland. Here, you can watch the imposing large-scale live performance "Forever Wokuotai". The famous equestrian director from Mongolia reproduces 800 Years ago on the Asian plateau, the Mongolian ancestors domesticated the most spiritual animal in the world - the horse, felt the sound of the horse's mane and tail when riding a horse, and made the world's first bowed stringed instrument - the Matouqin, galloping on horseback on the vast grassland. The steps of walking, trotting, jogging and fast running of horses create and sing long tunes. Mongolians still admire horses and keep them company, so Mongolians are called a nation on horseback.


The heroic Khan went out, and the tribe prayed silently in the mysterious shaman sacrifice, waiting for their relatives to return safely. Suddenly, drums and thunder rang outside the gate of the tribe, and the brave god of war Wo Kuotai led the tribe to gallop over. Gathering, very excited, all the tribesmen thanked God for the gift, the sacred and mysterious sacrifice began... Let’s take a look at the Mongolian men and Mongolian girls from Mongolia who performed for us

After appreciating "Forever Wokuotai" for two hours, we had lunch at the restaurant in the equestrian town. The lunch was very rich and there was a large-scale cultural performance. Watch the short video below to experience it. After lunch, I was still unsatisfied with the performance of "Forever Wokuotai", so I checked the strategy on the Internet and planned to go to the Daihai tourist scenic spot in Liangcheng to see the grassland scenery. I happened to live in the scenic spot at night. There are also restaurants in the scenic spot. The most important thing is Yes, you can take a cruise and take pictures.


【Liangcheng Daihai】


Daihai tourist area is located in the south of Ulanqab League, with beautiful mountains and rivers and pleasant scenery. Daihai is 10 kilometers long from north to south and 35 kilometers wide from east to west. In midsummer, the slightly oval Daihai Sea looks like the first lotus leaves.
During the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi visited Daihai many times, and built a palace here, named it "Liangcheng", and named Daihai "Tianchi". The palace was later renamed Huixiang Temple, which was once one of the largest temples in Inner Mongolia. It was destroyed by war in 1939. In the 38,000 mu of primary secondary forest, there are dozens of wild animals. It is a national-level forest park. There are Foye Cave, Jinshui Ridge, and Wannian Ice Cellar under the peaks on the north side. It is a good place for sightseeing. When we arrived at the Daihai tourist area, although it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was still shining brightly and the ultraviolet rays were strong. After discussing with my friends, I plan to go to the scenic pier to take a cruise to visit the Daihai Scenic Area.

We didn’t take the speedboat in Daihai Tourist Area. We regretted it. The speedboat is more exciting and cooler. After visiting Daihai, our group walked directly to Huahai Scenic Area opposite Daihai Scenic Area for ten minutes. This is really a holy place for taking pictures. Looking around, you can have a panoramic view of the colorful sea of ​​flowers that stretches for several kilometers, and the elegant matouqin solo and singing and dancing by handsome Mongolian men in the flowers, it is very intoxicating.
