Yulong Sand Lake's yellow sands stretch like golden waves, nestled amidst a turquoise expanse. Any photo opportunity creates a breathtaking spectacle, and it also embodies the ancient heritage of "China's First Dragon."
The must-do desert buggy ride is thrilling, a 25-minute adrenaline-pumping experience. Paired with scenic views from the Bailong sightseeing bus and camel rides, the experience is a perfect balance of action and tranquility, ensuring a truly captivating experience. Highly recommended!
I drove over 200 kilometers specifically to experience Yulong Sand Lake, but overall, I was pretty underwhelmed.
The park is quite large, but the layout is illogical. The ticket prices are also quite confusing: 80 yuan for the entrance fee and 120 yuan for the lakeside train (including the entrance fee), effectively telling everyone to take the train. The scenery around the lake is rather monotonous and lacks any novelty. The sandboarding and camel rides are both fun and require additional fees.

The Ashatu Stone Forest is located at the intersection of the Dada Line and the Re'a Line, two famous scenic thoroughfares in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia. The scenery along the way is breathtaking and well worth a visit! This is a rare granite rock forest in the world, divided into four scenic areas. Marvel at the wonders of nature...
The scenery is OK, but there are not many things to do. Compared to the 160 ticket, I feel that the cost performance is too low. The scenic spot is divided into several areas. You can take a shuttle bus. When going to the Kunpeng area, the shuttle bus waited for a long time. When we arrived at the scenic spot, we only had 15 minutes to play. And there were only a few stones. It was really speechless.

The scenery of Jiuquwan truly lives up to its reputation! From the observation deck, the winding river draws an elegant curve across the boundless grassland, like a turquoise ribbon flowing between heaven and earth.
The most surprising thing is that this place retains its pristine natural beauty, without any signs of overdevelopment.
Only after visiting Ulagai can you truly experience the grasslands of the horizon! The blue sky, white clouds, and green grass stretch as far as the eye can see, stretching all the way to the horizon! Herds of cattle and sheep are leisurely and free! My mood suddenly brightens.

The museum isn't large, so a quick tour of half an hour or an hour is recommended. The Hongshan Culture, which dates back 3,000 to 5,000 years, was spread across Chifeng and Chaoyang. The first floor features the Hongshan Culture exhibition (worth a look), the second floor features the Folklore exhibition (a quick overview), and the third floor features the Science and Technology Exhibition Hall (not worth visiting).
Chifeng Hongshan Museum is located at the foot of Hongshan Mountain. It consists of Hongshan Park, Hongshan Museum and Hongshan Forest Park. It is rich in content. I rode my bike to Hongshan Forest Park early in the morning and climbed up Hongshan Mountain to overlook Chifeng. I went in when the museum opened at 9 o'clock after I got down the mountain. It was the weekend, so my parents brought their children to visit. The teacher who explained it was very patient. Hongshan Museum not only has the Hongshan Jade Dragon, but also introduces Liang Siyong, a pioneer in Chinese archaeology, the second son of Liang Qichao, and Mr. Su Bingqi, who proposed the theory of the starry sky.

Chifeng Hongshan Park is located 2 kilometers northeast of Chifeng City. It is the largest park in the urban area. Lotus flowers are in full bloom in the garden, and the Red Mountain not far away can be clearly seen. It is said that Chifeng City got its name from this mountain.
Garden (English name: garden) refers to a place where flowers and trees are planted for recreation and rest. In the old days, it was used to name garden buildings, such as the Hanging Gardens of Babylon [1]. Garden is often used to refer to open parks or private gardens in villas.

The scenery here is truly stunning. The endless grasslands are matched by the blue sky, and the grasslands are full of sheep and cattle. Having a bonfire party at night, eating roasted whole lamb, and drinking kumis is such a treat, all the worries and unhappiness are gone with the wind! The food and accommodation here are also very affordable!
In July and August, the Jinlianchuan Grassland is awash in golden lotus blossoms, creating a stunning golden landscape. Besides the lotus flowers, there are also numerous yellow, white, red, and purple wildflowers in bloom. It's truly a sea of flowers!

The large-scale performance of "Mongolian Horse" is worth seeing, but other things like the museum being closed and the poor dining experience are not very good. In addition, the ticket booking process on Ctrip is quite cumbersome, but the ticketing service guy was very kind and I was able to get it done with his help.
"Mongolian Horses" is a stunning film. It shows the Mongolian horse's tenacious and courageous spirit, and also reflects the deep emotional bond between the Mongolian people and horses. This spirit is worth learning from and inspires us to face difficulties and move forward courageously in life.

Autumn in Yudaokou is like nature overturning its palette. Golden leaves, fiery red maple leaves, and emerald green pines and cypresses interweave into a brilliant and colorful painting.
The scenery of each season has its own merits. Spring is very short. Basically, when spring comes, summer is almost here. The summer in Mulan Paddock is extremely beautiful. The vast forests of Saihanba, the Yudaokou Grassland Road, and the comfortable temperature make people linger. The paddock in autumn is even more beautiful, with mountains of five colors and overlapping green and gold. The ice and snow in winter are even more plain and white. Although it is cold, it has its own flavor.

The Dada Highway is a grassland highway in Keshiketeng Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, China. It stretches 135 kilometers from Darinor Lake to the Ashatu Stone Forest. It has been listed by National Geographic China as one of China's most beautiful self-driving routes.
The Dada Highway begins at Darinor Lake (Inner Mongolia's second-largest inland lake, meaning "sea-like lake" in Mongolian), located in western Keshiketeng Banner.
The end point is the Ashatu Stone Forest (a National 5A-level scenic spot), located in the foothills of the Greater Khingan Range and renowned for its granite rock formations.
The Dada Line is highly recommended for self-drive tours, perfect for families and groups. Another recommended self-drive destination near the Dada Line is the majestic Daqing Mountains, offering picturesque scenery.

来到乌兰布统鄂温克族驯鹿场，这里细致的介绍了使鹿鄂温克族驯鹿使的发展之路，变迁过程，这里介绍了鄂温克族的住宿帐篷结构，内部布局和要求，使鹿的习性和饮食特点等等，是了解使鹿鄂温克族驯鹿的好去处。这里也是孩子们喜欢喂鹿，抚摸使鹿的地方。今天下雨☔️人不是很多。
You don't have to come here specifically, just come and take a look when you pass by. The ticket price is not expensive. The playing time depends on the interaction time between the children and the animals, but it will not be too long. There are several non-powered amusement projects that children like to play. There are packages for feeding animals, and you can feed reindeer, sika deer, and rabbits at close range. It is suitable for children to experience
