Hulunbuir Grassland, a popular check-in spot for travelers

I visited last June and July, when the sky was clear with white clouds, and the vast grassland was in full view. Finally arriving at the long-awaited prairie and wandering through what seemed like a real-life computer desktop background was an amazing experience! The grass is lush and green in late June, (currently, the grass is not green yet, as summer arrives later in Inner Mongolia) My sister and I both want to visit the great grasslands of Inner Mongolia, eat lamb, and go grass sliding! But neither of us knows much about the area, and it's our first time traveling there. Being two girls who are not great with directions, we decided to join a tour group. The travel agency we signed up with was recommended by a friend of my sister's who had been there before. The agency is local, with all the necessary licenses and certifications. Since my sister's friend had been there, we didn't worry too much and signed up without much fuss. After the experience, we found it to be quite good. Everyone's experience is different, but I feel that they delivered on everything they promised, and the trip was indeed all about pure enjoyment. 【Worth Experiencing】 Riding horses to watch the sunset at Heishantou Staying in a Mongolian yurt at least once Having a Russian meal Holding and feeding lambs Trying out the kilometer-long grass slide 【Group Tour Story】 Our guide picked us up from the airport on the day we arrived and took us to the hotel to rest. He was very enthusiastic and a local. Initially, we were quite worried, but after interacting with him, we found the guide to be very reliable, which was confirmed throughout the trip! We started our journey the next day in a spacious business van, which was nice and roomy, haha. He was willing to stop the car for us to take photos and was happy to help us take pictures. On the van, he was the one easing the atmosphere, never making the conversation awkward. The five-day trip was smooth with no major issues or unpleasant moments. The strangers we met were also very gentle, and we had fun eating and playing together! You can try the Hailar Yuanxiyuan Baozi, I recommend the sand leek lamb filling (I can eat several baskets in one go). 【Travel Tips】 1. The weather on the Inner Mongolia grasslands is unpredictable, with significant temperature differences between day and night, so bring warm and windproof clothing (avoid green clothes for photos). 2. If possible, prepare a telephoto lens and walkie-talkies, as photo distances on the grassland are vast, and try to get up early (it gets light very early). 3. If you need to cross the grassland, many scenic spots within the grassland are not navigable by map, the area is too large, and many places have no mobile signal. Without an experienced driver to lead the way, do not risk driving yourself!
