If you live in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, I recommend you to visit the Zhangbei Grassland. Beijing will drive for 3 hours, and you will come to the endless prairie. The Zhangbei Grassland Road is 323.5 kilometers long, starting from Zhangchengjie, passing through Chicheng, Zhangbei, Chongli and other counties, and ending at the Hebei-Mongol border.

Grassland Road

Grassland Sky Road East Line: Many people say that the iconic sign on Grassland Sky Road is on the ? line, but it is actually wrong, it is at the entrance of the east line! If you want to check in to this iconic building, you can navigate to "Zhangbei Grassland Tourist Service Center ", at the entrance of the service center.

I strongly recommend everyone to go to the east route if you come to Zhangbei Grassland Tianlu. There are many scenic spots on the east route. There are not many people this year. There are many flower fields to take pictures, such as: lavender flower fields, sunflowers, flower valleys, etc., but everyone To search for a good flowering period, I went there in early July. Except for a little bit of rapeseed and wild chrysanthemum, the others have not bloomed yet, which may be the reason for the relatively cold weather here. Every traveler who likes to camp is keen on chasing the steps of sunrise and sunset, and on this No. 66 Grassland Road, you can not only see the beautiful sunset, but also enjoy the vast galaxy? Sky.

If you just cross the Tianlu in a hurry for a day, you will definitely miss this stunning scenery, and the journey will lose half of the fun. The morning glow is not as delicate and beautiful as the sunset glow, but it is warm orange red. When the sun rises, the first ray of light cuts through the night, extending from a red circle to a red line, which slowly smudges, and the color becomes brighter and brighter. The shallower the sky, the brighter it is. The sunset is the reverse of the sunrise. It is not the biggest surprise of the grassland from day to night. The vast blue sea of ​​stars is the most exciting beauty for me. As long as the weather is clear, you can see the sunrise and sunset, but if you want to see To complete the Milky Way, the following conditions must be met: From June to September every year, it is the season with the most stars in the center of the Milky Way. 2. From the 23rd to the 7th day of the lunar calendar, the moon is below the horizon for most of the night. It will block the light of the stars. It is far away from urban light pollution. It is usually located on the top of a mountain with a higher altitude, or on a grassland that stretches as far as the eye can see.

Zhangbei Grassland, this festival is really beautiful now. It is very suitable for friends in Beijing to drive there on weekends. We departed from Beijing at 1:00 noon on Saturday, and returned to Beijing at 1:00 noon on Sunday. It happened to be a 24-hour tour route: Grassland Sky Road is divided into the east line and the ? (Huapi Ridge enters). If you are not sure, you can use the Baidu map. The two lines are clearly marked, which is very good. We arrived at Yehuling at about 3:30 on Saturday, and we went to the line early. It’s so beautiful!!!? The line is relatively wild, with few people, and there are scenery everywhere in the 30km, all taken on the line. We stopped and took pictures, and drove all the way to the end of the ? line (the junction of Shangyi and Zhangbei, there is a sign), it was almost 7 o'clock at that time, and the sunset was about 7:50 after checking. The imagination must be beautiful, so we Been waiting there. Sure enough, it is breathtakingly beautiful!!! However, you can decide for yourself whether you want to watch the sunset or not. After sunset, it was very dark, and there were basically no lights on the cable, and it was very big, and it rained in the morning, and there was a thick fog on the road, and the height felt no more than 10 meters. It was quite good even if you went downhill all the way. dangerous. The spirit is tense all the time!

It is recommended to go to Zhongdu Grassland first for accommodation, which is also a great scenic spot. It is the best choice to settle down there. In the evening, you can participate in the bonfire party and watch the iron flower show!

For accommodation, I recommend nearby farmhouses, and we stayed at Zhongdu Grassland at night. But if you want to live in better conditions, the suggestion is to book the Jinrui Resort Hotel, which is actually not expensive. We stopped the car along the way and asked if the price was 80 yuan. Online booking Jinrui is 160 yuan. It's half the price, but it's worth it. The conditions and service are really good. The pictures are great, the comments are also very good, and the word of mouth is relatively good. When I checked in, I found that it really lived up to its reputation. The boss is very nice, he treated us very warmly, let us feel the local people's feelings, the accommodation is very clean and hygienic, and the meals are just there.

I took more photos of this hotel because I thought it was good. In fact, this place is already considered a small scenic spot. You can see the hotel's intentions from the details. Very recommended!

For dinner, it is recommended to try Jinrui’s roasted whole lamb! It's really rare to have a word "absolutely". When roasting, you can go to the side of the oven to watch your lamb mature a little bit. And the sheep are selected on the spot, live sheep are killed now! So be sure to book in advance. Otherwise, it will affect the marinating time, and the taste will be very different.

If you play, you can ask the boss to recommend some places for horse riding! The price is very cheap, have fun!

I hope you will appear in front of my eyes with the lucky beauty. On the endless grassland, there are criss-crossing rivers, and groups of horses are looking for by the river. There are simple local conditions, ancient historical relics, and mountains, rivers and lakes have maintained the appearance of thousands of years ago. Body and mind, there must always be one on the road. Bashang Grassland is the closest natural grassland to Beijing, so it is also called "the No. 1 Grassland in North Beijing". The reason why Bashang is called Bashang is that it rises steeply at the junction of the North China Plain and the Inner Mongolia Plateau, forming a ladder shape. , in Mongolian, Bashang means high.
