The show lasted 70 minutes, featuring equestrianism, acrobatics, singing and dancing. Afterward, the horses' breeds and characteristics were explained. Afterward, you could feed and ride the horses for a fee. There was a slight odor inside the venue, so if you're sensitive, you can wear a mask. Those who aren't allergic will quickly get used to it. The shuttle driver was also very friendly.
It was a very shocking performance, loved by both adults and children. It allowed us to understand Mongolian culture and the importance of horses to the Mongolians. The actors all had unique skills and the horses were very cooperative, especially the many young actors, whose horsemanship was amazing and very impressive.

It was a wonderful trip. Due to bad weather, we skipped other more distant grasslands and came to Hadamen instead. I didn't expect the grasslands to be so beautiful. It was just rainy on the way down. Why is Hohhot so rainy this year? It really dampened my interest in the trip.
The value for money is incredibly poor! For a national forest park, they charge a whopping 70 yuan for admission! Why 70? Because it's 40 yuan for the entrance fee, and 30 yuan for the bus ticket, which you absolutely have to buy! The hike up the mountain is so long! It's totally unreasonable! I never saw anyone not buying one! And you have to get a paper ticket! What a waste of time! It's a pollution! The line for the bus was incredibly long! The line alone took an hour! It was raining heavily, and within five minutes of getting off the bus, we were already running off to wait for the bus back! The management at the attraction is terrible! They didn't care about people who cut in line! They didn't even actively arrange a bus to pick us up! We were freezing waiting for so long! The scenery was beautiful, but I didn't have time to enjoy it. It was beautiful, but the price felt high! Thankfully, Ctrip is working on resolving the issue! Traveling with a big platform is still the best choice 👍

The Inner Mongolia Museum boasts a magnificent architecture, seemingly unmatched among provincial museums.
Despite being a weekday, summer visitor numbers remain high, with a daily cap of 9,000 visitors, and entry is denied without prior reservations.
The collection is rich and fascinating, with the third floor featuring ancient history as a highlight. Relics of the Hongshan culture are displayed in the front, while evidence of multi-ethnic integration can be found in the back. The Liao, Jin, Xixia, and Yuan-Mongol themes, rarely seen in other provincial museums, are complemented by numerous exquisite first-class artifacts.
Because it's a new museum, the collection displays and visitor routes have been meticulously designed, providing a seamless experience, and the multimedia elements are perfectly embellished.
A significant number of visitors were accompanied by children; these children, raised in museums, will undoubtedly become a confident generation.
Reservations can be made one day in advance via the mini-program.
• Venue Layout: The venue consists of four floors, with floors 1 through 3 currently open. The first floor houses temporary exhibition halls and a public service area, boasting a high-tech feel. Yushu robots, dressed in traditional Chinese costumes, provide services. The second floor features basic exhibits such as "Ancient World," "Magnificent Plateau," "Underground Treasures," and "Flying Shenzhou." The third floor houses historical and cultural exhibitions, including "Grassland Majesty," "Charm of Fusion," "Grassland Customs," and "Grassland Beacon Fires."
• Exhibitions: There are 10 basic exhibits, including five general history exhibitions and five thematic exhibitions, located on the second and third floors. Five temporary exhibition halls are located on the first, third, and fourth floors. The exhibitions "The Great Liao and Khitan" and "Charm of Fusion" were recognized as National Museum Top Ten Exhibitions in 2017 and 2018, respectively. The "Ancient World" exhibition received the National Museum Exhibition Excellence Award in 2021.
• Service Facilities: The first-floor lobby offers one-stop service. The main reception desk provides free rental of wheelchairs, strollers, umbrellas, and other items. Self-guided audio guides are available in Chinese, Mongolian, and English. Each floor of the museum is equipped with a nursing room, water dispensers, and family restrooms, along with AEDs and an emergency call response system.

It was a fantastic day, a truly wonderful experience. I'm completely convinced Yili is a must-visit. It's a great place for both children and adults. This was one of the best memories of our first trip to Inner Mongolia.
It was a good visit. The speed of milk bagging was really surprising. There were only a few staff members in the entire production workshop, and everything was done in a mechanical assembly line. It would be even better if no one gave out a souvenir after the visit.

On August 31st, I took advantage of the weekend for a two-day, one-night special forces tour of Hohhot.
It happened to rain, so I'm especially grateful to the two train drivers who drove my son and me to the door to prevent us from getting soaked. Two weeks in advance was perfect. It's a bit chilly in the mornings and evenings now, so you can rent an electric scooter and combine the train ride with walking.
🌞Escape the summer heat at Chi Le Chuan Grassland, just 20 minutes from downtown Hohhot.
➡️Lakeside is lush green grass and refreshing mountain breezes, with the average daily temperature about 5°C lower than downtown. It's a "cool and soothing" experience. [grin] Come here this summer to enjoy the mountain breeze, step on the green grass, and watch the clouds roll by, letting the summer heat melt away in the grassland breeze.
🎫Admission is free.
🌟The most comfortable times to visit are recommended between 8 and 10 AM and after 5 PM. [Enjoyable]
🧭Chi Le Chuan Grassland parking lot🅿️, or the west gate of Chi Le Chuan Grassland. We recommend the parking lot, where you can rent a car.
🌟There aren't many entertainment options, so it's generally just along the route. We recommend renting an electric bike.

There are not many animals. In the wild animal area, you can only see wolves, lions, tigers and bears. However, only wolves and tigers are seen walking outside, and the rest are in cages. You can take the sightseeing bus as many times as you want. If the weather is good, the scenery is still good. You can play with your children for three or four hours.
I went to Daqingshan Wildlife Park some time ago, and the experience was great! As soon as I entered the park, my eyes were green and the air was particularly fresh. The first time I went to see the cute giant pandas, they were in a good state, and they were eating with bamboo. Then I went to the beast area again, took the feeding car, and saw the majestic lion and tiger at close range, nervous and exciting. There is also the docile alpaca in the cute pet paradise. When you get close, you will come over to eat. It is so cute! The road signs in the park are clear and it is especially worry-free to play. This trip is really worth it, I will come next time!

Stepping into the Shenquan Ecological Tourism Scenic Area, as if entering the paradise. The blue-bodied lake reflects the green mountains, the breeze blows, and the layers are rippling. During the stroll, the birds singing by the ears are crisp, and the nose is fragrant with flowers and plants.

Taste the sweet spring water and experience the special folk activities. The body and mind have been completely relaxed in this world. Every scenery makes people intoxicated and linger.

Families, went to the town of Moni Mountain Feiyi, it was really full of harvest! As soon as I entered, the retro building pulled me back to the past, and the atmosphere was superb. Entering the non-relict exhibition hall, the old crafts of leather carvings and paper cuttings make people see the eyes, and they can also experience it. It is super interesting! When you are hungry, go to the snack street, Mi Liangpi, Tuoxian squid fragrance is confused. At night, I watch the real drama "Moni Mountain Lizan". The plot is wonderful, the actors are super invested, and the history is displayed. I really strongly recommend everyone to feel it!
Very colorful, as if back to more than 30 years ago. There are many small pavilions to visit. The ticket price is also cheap. The scenery is pleasant and I learned some culture. The wisdom and creativity of the people of Inner Mongolia are admirable. Worth recommending

Family! Maqishan Ski Resort is really fun! I, a skiing white, went to experience the primary road. I was tired and happy for 3 hours. The price of the ski resort was super cost-effective. The 3-hour primary road ticket was not expensive and worth the money. It is very convenient to take the subway from the city to the airport and take a taxi. The middle and high-end roads in the snow field look super exciting, super envious of those big gods! By the way, remember to rent protective equipment outside in advance, and there are few expensive styles in the snow field. Hohhot people are also super enthusiastic, come back next time!
Conclusion first: exceeded expectations
Advantages:
1. The quality of the ski slopes is high, the slopes are set reasonably, the ticket price is cheap, and the skiing is very enjoyable both during the day and at night. I think this advantage alone is worth it
2. There are many types of restaurants and meals, and meals are super cheap, so you can eat well and be full
3. The ski resort song list is a must
4. The coaching fee is cheap
There are also disadvantages:
1. The parking lot looks big, but it is not big enough in reality. It is almost full at 9:30. If you go late, you will probably park far away
2. It doesn’t matter for novices, but those with a certain foundation are recommended to rent snowboards outside. The ski resort’s boards will fall off when you pull them out of the snow
3. The gates on the cable car occasionally blew
