Children are free of charge, and people over 60 are also free of charge. The round-trip cable car is 50 yuan. We caught up with the heavy rain, and the scenic spot gave us raincoats. We passed directly without ticket inspection. It is a responsible scenic spot.
For city kids, the desert is still fun. The projects inside are very good, but the queue time is a bit long and it rained heavily in the desert. Otherwise, we could have played for a while longer, so we were forced to close the business.

The scenery is super beautiful, the air is super good, very cool, you can ride a horse to feel the summer wind and let yourself go. It is worth a visit, eat the meat of the hand, drink milk tea, it is a worthwhile trip,
Huanghuagou is really beautiful, especially after the rain, the scenery is even more charming. The scenic area is very large, and there are many attractions, especially the small train, which is just like in Miyazaki's cartoons. The children had a lot of fun and the experience was super great! We played together for almost 6 hours, it is a place worth visiting

A majestic pass, guarding the Central Plains for over a thousand years!
As history rolls on, the gleam of swords and the clashing of drums fade. Standing atop the pass, I can still hear those screams ringing in my ears.
1️⃣ The scenic area is primarily focused on historical and cultural attractions, so it might be a bit too limited for nature lovers.
2️⃣ The area is huge! The terrain is quite hilly, so comfortable shoes are a must.

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.
Transportation:
We drove from Dazhao Temple to the Eternal Horse Song, about a 40-minute drive. If you arrive in Hohhot early on your first day, you can see the 3:00 PM or 8:00 PM performance and visit the Chi Le Chuan Grassland.
Or, on your last day, explore the city first, then see the 3:00 PM performance, visit the Chi Le Chuan Grassland, and then head to the airport, which is about a 20-minute drive.
Performance:
Based on Mongolian history and culture, this performance tells the story of a herder's son and his lifelong companionship with horses, showcasing the spirit and culture of this nomadic people.
The performance is narrative, at times grand and sometimes heartwarming. It might be a little difficult for children to sit still, as there are many gentle moments in the story that may be a bit dull for younger viewers. The entire story is 70 minutes long, and the introduction to various horse breeds takes 5-10 minutes.
If you want to experience Mongolian history and culture, this is a recommended visit.
If you want to buy a ticket, buy the 480 yuan ticket for a better experience.

The summer ticket gives you unlimited entry for three days. There are performances in every courtyard. The iron flower show is spectacular and the best. The world of harmony goes from the first to the fourth courtyard, but the transition is a bit confusing. I watched the palace show on the 12th, which happened to coincide with the first day of the drone show on the 13th. I decided to go up the wall of the Dai Palace to watch it. There were few people and the view was unobstructed. I was very satisfied.
During peak season, when it's crowded, there are plenty of shows, with performances running almost every hour. There's also a fire dance and iron flower show, and a drone show, which is fantastic and definitely worth the price of admission. One ticket gives you access for three days, so I saw the fire dance and iron flower show twice. I was still amazed.

We walked a large loop. The scenery was absolutely stunning. 😍😍😍 Just buy the entrance ticket. The other attractions weren't that interesting; they're the same all over the country. We wandered around, stopping to take pictures whenever we saw something beautiful. It was absolutely stunning. Just follow the large loop back out! !!!
It’s so beautiful here, the mountains are beautiful, the grassland scenery is super beautiful, and there is a colorful feeling of driving from a distance. There are very good tent families along the way, which is very pleasant. I didn’t develop much, so I’m not famous. It can be comparable to the sky grassland in Xinjiang. It is highly recommended!

Datong Museum is one of a group of cultural and art museums built in the south of Datong Municipal Government in the new district in recent years. It is adjacent to Datong Art Museum, Datong Theatre and Datong Library. The exterior design of the museum building is relatively modern, and the internal space is relatively large. Mainly the classification is displayed and introduced to the historical and cultural development process of Datong. The collection is rich, interesting and knowledgeable. Transportation is also more convenient.
💎 The Core Value of the Museum's Treasures
The treasures of Datong Museum share a common theme of "ethnic integration":
• Northern Wei Dynasty artifacts: These showcase the assimilation of Central Plains culture, Buddhist art, and Western Region technology by the nomadic Xianbei during their Sinicization (e.g., Confucian themes on lacquer screens and Western Asian craftsmanship in glassware).
• Liao, Jin, and Yuan Dynasty artifacts: These reveal how ethnic groups like the Khitan and Jurchen, after ruling the Central Plains, preserved their own customs while promoting multiethnic cultural coexistence (e.g., the coexistence of nomadism and farming in Liao tomb murals and the totemic evolution of the Chiwen).
• Historical Status: Datong's role as the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the "melting pot" of ethnic groups during the Liao and Jin dynasties serves as a tangible key to understanding the process of multicultural integration in Chinese civilization.

I went to Kangbashi Museum some time ago, and it was really amazing! As soon as I walked to the front of the museum, I was attracted by the unique architectural shape, which looked like a rock that had been polished by time and had a special sense of history. After entering, the various exhibits were dazzling. There were ancient bronzes, exquisite ceramics, and precious calligraphy and paintings. Listening to the story behind these exhibits introduced by the guide, it was as if I traveled through time and space, and personally experienced the long history and splendid culture of Ordos. I felt very rewarding. I sincerely recommend everyone to go and have a look!
The exhibition design is very attentive, divided according to the natural development context, the visiting route is clear, the transition is natural, and it is not tiring to visit. The lighting and sound effects are also amazing. In the simulated tropical rainforest exhibition area, the lighting is combined with the sound of birds and wind, as if you are in the depths of the rainforest.

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 scenery is charming, the scenic area is well managed, the service is very good, the shuttle bus runs frequently and stops at any time. The key point is that there is no secondary consumption except selling drinks and grilled sausages. Don't go to the Red Stone Cliff next to it (belongs to Ulanqab). The grassland inside is surrounded by a lot, and it is full of secondary consumption for riding horses and driving off-road vehicles.

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.
🐮 Check out the Yili Smart Health Park. Tickets can be purchased online in advance or on-site. The Health Valley offers tours of liquid milk and powdered milk production lines (with free volunteer guides), baking classes, interactive games, and a 5D movie, all for an additional fee. After seeing it all, I felt deeply grateful to the company for putting so much thought into creating this park and sharing it with everyone. It not only promotes the company's culture but also enriches our perspectives. The park also includes a restaurant and a flagship store for Yili products. You can also purchase a combined ticket with the Pet Park, where you can feed cows, deer, lambs, and other small animals. You can see human cubs running around among the various animal cubs, busily feeding them and enjoying themselves.
