老虎........:“"Chi Le Chuan, under the Yinshan Mountains, the sky is like a firmament, covering the four fields. The sky is vast, the fields are vast, the wind blows the grass low and you can see cattle and sheep." "If only the flying general of Longcheng was there, the Hu horses would not be allowed to cross the Yinshan Mountains." The Yinshan Mountains are east-west oriented and are ancient block mountains. They are about 1,200 kilometers long, and the main peak, Huhebashig, is 2,364 meters above sea level. Most of the mountains are composed of ancient metamorphic rocks, and sedimentary rocks are distributed in the fault basin. The Bayan Obo on the north slope is rich in polymetallic ores and rare earth metals. The Yinshan Mountains are the northern boundary of China's monsoon and non-monsoon zones, and belong to the transition zone between temperate semi-arid and arid climates. The Langshan Mountains in the west are particularly dry, and the Daqing Mountains are relatively humid. The south of the mountain is an agricultural area, the north of the mountain is a pastoral area, and the mountainous area is an interlaced area of agriculture, animal husbandry and forestry. More than 10,000 rock paintings in Yinshan have been discovered since the Northern Wei Dynasty. They are not only the earliest rock paintings discovered in the world, but also one of the richest rock paintings in the world, and the largest rock painting treasure house in China. Most of the existing Yinshan rock paintings are distributed in the Bayannur area, which truly records the production and life history of the ancient northern nomadic peoples such as the Xiongnu, Chile, Rouran, Xianbei, and Mongolia who lived here. The Five Tigers Picture is a representative work of Yinshan rock paintings. In addition to animal paintings and hunting paintings, grazing paintings also account for a large proportion. They were produced in the late Bronze Age and continued to the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. Although the ages are far apart, their contents are generally similar. There are also several celestial rock paintings, which are also rare in the world's rock paintings. Strategy: Seasonal cost: June-early October. Free. Transportation and accommodation: Located in Urad Rear Banner under the jurisdiction of Bayannur City, route: 717 County Road, Bayannur (1.5 hours)-Yinshan Rock Paintings (0.5 hours)-Gaojue Sai (0.5 hours, with yurt accommodation)-Jilusai (0.5 hours)-Agui Temple (0.6 hours)-Western Dream Canyon. The classic route includes Yinshan Mountains, farming, nomadism, Gobi, and desert. It is recommended to leave 2-4 hours for the whole journey and drive slowly to see the scenery. Occasionally, wild roe deer, pheasants, and turtledoves will appear. You can also stay in Dengkou County and go directly to the hotel for about 1.2 hours. Scenery: The whole tour takes about 30 minutes. There are giant rock paintings, cattle, horses, people, and dogs in a 1:1 ratio, and they have certain artistic value. The Danxia and Yadan landform canyons on the right are 1 kilometer long, majestic and magnificent. There is also a small rock painting of a horse herder at the end of the Alashan Canyon of the "Western Dream Canyon". Equipment: travel shoes, sunglasses, sunscreen, drinking water.”

老虎........:“"Agui Temple" (Laxiburen Gadinglin Agui), Agui, which means cave in Mongolian, is a Tibetan Buddhism Red Sect. It is the largest Red Sect temple in Inner Mongolia. It respects the founder of the Red Sect, Padmasambhava, as its master. It is also the only activity place for the Red Sect Lamas in Inner Mongolia. In 774 AD, the Indian monk Padmasambhava preached here. In 1798, the temple was built, covering an area of more than 100 hectares and an altitude of 1,500 meters. The temple was built on the mountain and is a typical Tibetan building. The Lifanyuan of the Qing Dynasty once named it "Zongcheng Temple" and gave it a large plaque with the temple name written in four languages: Manchu, Mongolian, Tibetan and Chinese. Since then, Agui Temple has become famous and monks have gathered. In its heyday, there were more than 400 monks. In addition to the main statue of Sakyamuni Buddha, the main hall also offers Guru Padmasambhava. The left and right of the main hall are supporting halls, and the west side is the Vajra Hall. There are 5 unique natural caves on the cliffs around the main hall, namely Padmasambhava Cave, Shengle Vajra Cave, Buddha Cave, Tara Cave, and Hongyang Cave. Tips: Seasonal fee: June to early October. Free Transportation and accommodation: Bayannur (1.5 hours) - Yinshan Rock Paintings (0.5 hours) - Gaojue Sai (0.5 hours, with yurt accommodation) - Jilu Sai (0.5 hours) - Agui Temple (0.6 hours) - Western Dream Canyon. 717 County Road, the classic route along the Yinshan Mountains, farming, nomadism, Gobi, desert, beacon towers, it is recommended to leave 2-4 hours for the whole journey, drive slowly to see the scenery, there are wild roe deer, pheasants, and turtledoves on the road. You can also stay in Dengkou County for about 1.2 hours, or stay overnight in a temple. Scenery: After entering the mountain gate, there are still 8 kilometers to the main hall. There are large wild roe deer on the way, which can be watched slowly. The whole tour of the scenic area takes about 1.5 hours, mainly the temple area and the "Padmasambhava Cave". You must go to the "Padmasambhava Cave" behind the main hall. The entrance of the cave is very small and hidden, and the inner hall is large enough to accommodate 100 people. There is a huge stalagmite column on the right side of the entrance. The stalagmite cave can easily pass through one person, which is the treasure of the town cave. There is a ritual on the 10th and 25th of each month, from 10 am to 3 pm. There will be loud drums and music after each section of the chanting. After 2 o'clock, the lamas start to share food. A spoonful of fruit wine, a spoonful of hand-pulled rice, a bowl of milk tea, everyone has a share, and the lamas are very kind. Later, some believers will give the lamas a lot of snacks, such as shaqima, biscuits, steamed bread slices, etc. The other four caves are not open, so you don't have to see them. It takes five hours to visit all five caves. Equipment: travel shoes, water, thick coat.”
