草原的天空永远都是那么美,从宝石蓝到浅绿,变化莫测,每一色都蕴含独特韵味,令人心旷神怡。辽阔无垠的草原连上天际,偶尔传来一两声狗吠,风懒懒地拂过草浪,无声却动人心弦。

Hongger Aobao Scenic Area is an excellent scenic spot that combines natural scenery and Mongolian culture, and is deeply loved by tourists. Hongger Aobao in the scenic area, as the largest Aobao in Xilamuren Grassland, has a history of 400 years and is an important symbol of Mongolian sacrificial culture. On the 18th day of the fifth lunar month every year, herders will pray here for good weather and good harvests. Standing on the top of the Aobao, tourists can overlook the magnificent scenery of the entire grassland and feel the baptism of the soul. In addition, the equestrian performance "Legend of the South of the Desert" in the scenic area is also a highlight, showing the superb skills of Mongolian equestrianism and the legendary stories of Genghis Khan's period, so that tourists can not only enjoy the performance, but also deeply understand the history and culture of the Mongolian people. In general, whether it is natural scenery or cultural experience, Hongger Aobao Scenic Area is worth visiting for tourists to feel the vastness of the grassland and the unique charm of Mongolian culture.

This beautiful grassland is located on the outskirts of Baotou City. Transportation is not very convenient. Every spring and summer, the grassland is full of flowers, embellishing the green earth with various colors. It is very beautiful and the scenic area is open to the public free of charge.

I like the prairie very much. I actually saw hot air balloons on the prairie in China. It's great. Unfortunately, I came too early. The weather is windy now and the hot air balloons can't fly. But the new RV and the beautiful Inner Mongolia blue made up for my regret. There are calves and ponies everywhere on the road, and they don't avoid cars. I plan to come again in July, stay in the RV to watch the stars at night, get up the next morning to watch the sunrise in a hot air balloon, ride horses and eat roasted lamb, perfect!

The ranch is located at the foot of Dayin Mountain. It is very large, with endless lush grass and beautiful natural scenery. It was mid-autumn when we went there. Because it is far away from the city, there are not many tourists and it is very quiet.

There is a particularly beautiful Water Curtain Cave here, which is worth a visit. Moreover, the landscape in the scenic area is basically still original, so you can feel the beauty of nature!

A fierce anti-Japanese battle once took place here, which completely drove the Japanese devils out of Bailingmiao, the hot land of the children of the grassland.
