Ulan Butong Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Wulan Butong Tourist Area Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Ulan Buh Tourism Area
Ulan Buh, also known as the Ulan Buh Tourism Area, is under the jurisdiction of Keshiketeng Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia. Located in the southwestern part of Keshiketeng Banner, Chifeng City, it includes three scenic areas: the Ulan Buh Grassland, the Ulan Buh Ancient Battlefield, and the Huamugou Forest Area. It is a tourism area that integrates mountains, water, flowers, grass, forests, and historical sites. Ulan Buh has a temperate semi-arid continental monsoon climate, with a large area of primary and secondary forests, arbor and shrub species, and grassland herbaceous plants.
The Ulan Buh Tourism Area has eight scenic spots including the Ulan Buh Ancient Battlefield, Wucail Mountain, Elephant Group Mountain, Jiapigou, and others.
Situated in the transitional zone between hills and plains, it presents characteristics completely different from other grasslands. With its enchanting European-style grassland scenery, it has become a famous base for film and television location shooting. The grassland here has four distinct features:
First is the combination of forest and grassland. Here, the forest and grassland are organically combined, possessing both the elegant and gentle charm of the south and the rough and vigorous strength of the north, embodying the beauty of both southern grace and northern boldness.
Second is the vast meadows. Although not endless, one can feel the poetic sentiment of the Northern Dynasties folk song, 'The sky is like a dome, covering the wilderness. The sky is vast, the field is boundless, the wind blows the grass low and reveals the cattle and sheep,' when standing here.
Third is the 'hundred-flower meadow' landscape. In the meadow area around the film and television base, each summer, the grassland is full of life, with flowers blooming in abundance, changing the dominant flower species every ten or so days. Your visit this time might be yellow, but in ten days it could be pink, red... Each batch is dominated by a leading flower species, with other colors complementing it. Famous or not, they are diverse and colorful, weaving patches of colorful carpets on the large meadows and hillsides, forming clusters of elusive colorful clouds. The blue sky, white clouds, green mountains, and clear waters set off the noisy world of flowers, sketching out a series of vibrant and colorful European-style oil paintings.
Fourth is the birch forest landscape. The most distinctive feature is the alternating density, sparse enough to gallop horses, dense enough to block the wind. On the gentle slopes at the edge of the meadows, some areas are covered with birch trees, forming dense forests impenetrable to the wind. Venturing in, the branches and leaves block out the sun, and it's hard to tell how large the forest is. In some areas, the birch trees are sparsely scattered, with single trees, clusters of three or five, or dozens forming a group, which is a sight to behold. Coupled with the varied terrain here, there are grasslands, wetlands, canyons, and hills. In the early morning and evening, the slanting sun casts highlights on the ridges, creating a contrast of light and shadow that renders the large environment's hazy beauty, forming a series of ancient Greek oil paintings.

Ulan Buh| The autumn here is like a paradise of oil paintings, so beautiful that it moves one to tears!!
| The autumn here is like a paradise of oil paintings, so beautiful that it moves one to tears!! Ulan Buh| The green is not the exclusive calling card of the grasslands, the autumn grasslands are even more colorful, especially the autumn of the Ulan Buh grassland, filled with that alluring magic,
Ulan Buh is located at the southernmost tip of Keshiketeng Banner in Inner Mongolia, separated from Hebei's Saihanba by a boundary river,
combining grassland, lakes, wetlands, and forest landscapes into one. Ulan Buh was once a royal hunting ground, and anything that caught the royal eye was definitely of the finest quality, due to its location at the intersection of hills and plains,
it presents a completely different natural feature from other grasslands. Come autumn, this place transforms into a paradise of oil paintings,
outshining other autumn scenes in the country with overwhelming momentum, becoming a colorful and dreamy world,
/
During autumn, the temperature difference between day and night is significant, you might still be wearing short sleeves during the day, but at night you need to prepare a light down jacket to avoid catching a cold. The autumn season is quite dry, and the ultraviolet rays are strong, so sun protection is very important

Beijing Vicinity | It's not that Harbin is unaffordable, but Bashang offers better value for money
☀️A little potato from the south, I mustered up the courage to visit the frigid land of Bashang.
📸Bashang: A grassland in Inner Mongolia accessible from Beijing, where the emperor used to hunt in the autumn during the Qing dynasty. In spring, Bashang is covered with flowers, in summer the water and grass are lush with herds of cattle and sheep, in autumn the forests are a riot of color, and in winter the ground is blanketed with snow.
🗺️【Route】
Joined a car tour group, gathering in Beijing
Day1️⃣ Beijing — Weichang County — Saihanba Forest Park — Ulan Butong
Day2️⃣ Ulan Butong — Tongfeng Gully (river fog, rime ice) — Nanjing — Hamaba (village photography, light and shadow) — Baijiawopu (sunset) — Ulan Butong
Day3️⃣ Ulan Butong — Xiaohe Head (snow buns, rime ice) — Weichang County — Beijing
☀️【Temperature】
Around minus 10 to minus 20 degrees Celsius
🧷【Gear】
✅Top: I wore a quick-dry shirt, fleece, Uniqlo light down jacket, thick down jacket (yes, 2 down jackets)
✅Bottom: Thermal leggings, 2 pairs of fleece-lined sweatpants (yes, 3 pairs of pants)
✅Shoes: Outdoor shoes + heated insoles + very thick socks, plus snow gaiters, because the snow is deep, unless your snow boots are very tall, it's recommended to add snow gaiters to prevent snow from falling into the shoes, which can get wet
✅Gloves: Cotton gloves
✅Hat: Down jacket's hood
✅Scarf: Woolen scarf
➡️With this set, only my hands were cold, they were freezing while taking photos
Toes were a bit cold too, need to move around more
All the gear I wore, I didn't buy specially, they are just clothes I normally wear in Shanghai, just layered up...
✏️【Impressions】
✔️In the extreme cold weather, it's okay if there's sunshine, just wear more clothes, it's just the exposed parts that are miserable.
If you wear a mask, it will collect moisture, and glasses will frost up, without a mask it's just cold...
✔️We had an off-road vehicle all the way, so we could only stand being outside for at most half an hour before we had to roll back into the car to warm up.
✔️Regarding the scenery, personally, I think too much of it can lead to aesthetic fatigue, I feel 2-3 days is about right...
✔️Bashang in winter is really sparsely populated, there are only a few restaurants, hotels, and shops open, the good thing is it's quiet with few people, the downside is it's too quiet......

Jiangjun Lake Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
General Bud, an attraction in the Ulan Buddhism Scenic Area. In the Kangxi period, when the Qing court and Gul'dan battled, the general of the Qing court was named after the death of the country. In terms of appearance, there is actually no generale's domineering and heroic spirit, and some are soft and beautiful. Even in the range of one or two kilometers in the bubble circle, the flowers bloom much more than others, from the parking place to the bubble. There is still some distance on the side, you can take a carriage in the parking lot. The so-called bubble is a large area of water, which is the lake. The water here is wide, surrounded by mountains, and the reeds in the water are patchwork. As night falls, staying in the yurt by the side of the bubble for one night, sitting around the campfire to admire the soothing matouqin and suppressing the tragic Mongolian long tune, is another kind of feeling. At night, the pillows savour the romantic feelings of the silent grassland night, and the rustling sound of the reeds in the ear will seduce people.

A bit of broken off-road vehicle came to pick us up. The driver's big brother looked a little unhappy. It took us to rampage, leapt over some frozen rivers, and saw a silly hare. It was already a little blue-violet. . The first driver's big brother took us to the North Ditch, and I have already seen a large group of dense people standing on the hill, and we are swaying under the mountain, taking the touch of color in the morning light. The
layered hills are really nice. The white ones on the ground should be frost, the frost is foggy, and the sun and frost make the heavens and earth become well-proportioned and graceful. After the sun rose, we went to the back of the birch forest to take pictures, the sky was blue and yellow, and the sun was slanting.
Leaving the North Ditch, we went to the Red Pine Lake, the golden reeds and the blue lake were too quiet to approach.
The driver's practice on this side is to pick up at 5 in the morning, go back to rest at 11 o'clock at noon, the master takes us to the small market near the general's bubble, where you can eat and buy souvenirs, you can also ride to the general bubble go with. I heard that the general bubble is the best place to watch the sunset. I think it is not bad to see the blue and blue lake at noon. Everyone puts the clothes on the grass and chats and eats snacks. I put the scarf on my head and slept for a nap. It feels very good.
After a good afternoon, we decided to go to Princess Lake to see, this is a paid attraction. Other small partners think that it is very general after entering, but I like it very much.
The lake reflects the blossoming white clouds in the sky, the yellow grass and the tall and straight trees are patchwork, and the sun is also appearing at the right time, just like a beautiful oil painting.

As the ideal location for shooting in the film industry, it has become the location of more than 50 TV series such as "Huanzhugege", "Kangxi Dynasty", "Dahan Tianzi" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Each film and television work on the grassland, the film and television base will set up a memorial stone, surrounded by the film and television base. And on the grassland not far away, I saw the crew filming here.
Swim in this "Prairie Film City", the sheep on the endless prairie, and the horses are strong. The organic integration of hills and plains combines the beauty of the south with the masculine masculine of the north.

Wulanbutong, which is only more than 300 kilometers away from Beijing, is part of the Mulan paddock of the Qing Dynasty. It was famous for its Emperor Kangxis command of the Qing army war, and it has become a famous film and television exterior base with its charming European grassland scenery.
Going to Ulan Buddhism is because the autumn there is particularly beautiful. It happened that when I went there, I saw a shooting scene like a rumor. If you only have three or four days of vacation, then I especially recommend you to go here. Scenery ~
Itinerary:
DAY1: Beijing-Siheyong
DAY2: Siheyong-Ulanbutong-Donggou-Princess Lake
DAY3: Poplar Back-Colorful Mountain- General bubble
DAY4: barrage
DAY5: Ulan Butong - Qixing Lake - Beijing
traffic:
from Beijing, the most common way to reach Ulan Buddhism is:
1, self-driving
from Beijing, BeijingBeijing-Chengde Expressway354 Provincial Road (Beijing-Chengde Line)112 National RoadZhanglong LineLonghua CountyWeichang County Duolun, Yudaokou Direction Dahekou Hongshan Army Horse Farm, it takes about 7-8 hours
PS: Old drivers in Beijing and nearby cities choose this program
2, train+charter
because Lanbu is a prairie. The spots are far apart. Basically, it can only rely on self-driving or chartered buses. There is no special scenic bus between the various attractions. The most convenient way to get to the Red Mountain Army Racecourse is to take the train from Beijing to Siheyong, and then take a taxi from Siheyong to play again! There are many local drivers around the train station to attract tourists every day. The price is 400 days, which is a very cheap price compared to most areas.
PS: It is suitable for people who are not driving like me, and who do not want to report to the group. The photography spots of hh/Ulanbutong are geographically dispersed. The places that people who like photography often go to are the following. :
1, general bubble (suitable for shooting sunrise, sunset, horse water splash)
2, princess lake (suitable for shooting sunset, backlight)

Tips:
1, autumn The weather is dry, it is recommended to carry a vacuum flask with you. Ulan Buddhism is different from ordinary sightseeing spots and can't buy snacks at any time. It is more convenient to go out and enjoy the water every day.
2, although at the end of September, the clothing for the cold is still to be brought, especially with sunrise and starry shooting plans, this time is very low temperature and often a station is a long time, windproof hats or scarves are also available. .
3, the weather in the north is relatively dry, and all kinds of hydrating artifacts are essential.

Hamaba Slope Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Hama Dam at the border of Hebei and Inner Mongolia, a treasure trove of self-driving tour with stunning scenery
Hama Dam at the border of Hebei and Inner Mongolia, a treasure trove of self-driving tour with stunning scenery.
Hama Dam is located at the junction of the Inner Mongolia and Hebei Province, within the territory of Keshiketeng Banner, Wulanbutong. There is a small, unassuming village nestled between the rising slopes on both sides, with a small river running through the village. Without a guide in advance and relying on navigation to find the destination, many people would miss this beautiful scenery.
On the grassland, 'Dam' refers to a piece of high and gentle slope. Hama Dam is just like this, a large piece of undulating hilly slope. On the slope, in addition to the endless meadows, there are large areas of birch forests and scattered old elm trees, as well as randomly scattered shrubs. Therefore, the most beautiful time in Hama Dam is in autumn and winter. In autumn, the hillside is colorful and varied, and in winter, the snow is white and silver-wrapped, and a casual shot is a natural pastoral scroll.

The autumn scenery of Hamaba
Hamaba is located in Wulanbutong, Keshiketeng Banner, at the border of Hebei and Inner Mongolia, about 20 kilometers away from the Red Mountain Army Horse Farm.
Following the oil road to Keshiketeng Banner, passing through the Huamu Gou Forest Farm, entering the rural road to the northwest, and going forward about three or four kilometers, a high and gentle slope is right there.
This place is mostly hilly, with 'gullies' or lowlands on three sides, and a small river that can be crossed in one step, clear and winding, is the water source for livestock such as cattle and sheep.
The terrain of Hamagou is unique, and the autumn scenery is colorful and colorful. The roadside is full of tall elm and birch trees. The red leaves all over the mountains are golden and overflowing, and among the clusters of red leaves, under the hillside, in the gully, according to the mountain, there are dozens of thatched cottages and newly built red brick and tile houses scattered. The chickens crow and the dogs bark, the cooking smoke is curling up, and there is a kind of simple and primitive pastoral flavor.

In July, Jiangnan has entered the summer season! The heat is inseparable from the air conditioner! And Ulan Butong happens to be the spring season! Go to the summer, look at the blue sky, step on the green grass, meet the breeze, too comfortable! After driving for a while, I came to a scenic spot, the dam, and the people walked on the dirt road. It was seen that it was temporarily established. There are some flower fields in the distance, colorful colors. I want to see it, but I didnt have to worry. There are one brackets next to it, which are used for photographing. The lake is rippling with blue waves. I really didn't expect to have a lake. Some people on both sides are selling garlands, some vegetables, and nothing else. If you really want to say something, its probably a broad view. The road to go home is sky-high, the road is only in the scenic spot, and you have to pay the price on the scenic spot. The toll, at three in the morning, we slept at home.
The scenery of the grassland is magnificent, vast, and then interesting, but on the way, there has always been a touch of warmth.

The dam is located in the Ulan Buddhism of Keqi, at the junction of Hebei and Inner Mongolia. It is a gently sloping slope with three sides being "ditch" or lowland. There are many hilly hills here, the landform is unique, the autumn scenery is colorful, the red leaves in the mountains and the mountains, the flowing golden dan, the clusters of red leaves, the bright yellow birch leaves blend together, and merge into a picture of natural beauty. The dam is more than 20 kilometers away from the Red Mountain Army Horse Farm. It passes through the Huamugou Forest Farm along the oil road leading to Keqi, and enters the rural dirt road to the northwest. It then travels about three or four kilometers and climbs slowly from low to high. The place where the trees such as eucalyptus and birch are dotted is the dam. Under the hillside, in the gully, there are dozens of huts and red-brick houses scattered in the mountains. The cockerel is a cockroach, and it has a rustic and original pastoral flavor. The top of the mountain is a piece of birch tree. The mountainside is an irregular terrace. The mountain is a beautiful old banyan tree in twos and threes. In the gap between the trees, it is a round or rectangular sheepfold and bullpen. In the autumn, the mountains are divided into five colors and the valleys are fragrant; in winter, the silver is covered with snow, and the snow is snowy. Just take the camera to that one, and press the shutter to make a painting.

Ulan Butung Grasslands Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
I lament the fleeting nature of my life and envy the endless beauty of the autumn colors in the Ulan Buh grasslands
In the fairyland of autumn, I drive slowly along the road of the Ulan Buh grasslands in Keshiketeng Banner. This vast grassland, like a green tapestry, covers the entire earth. The sunlight filters through the clouds and sprinkles on the grass, and the blades sway in the breeze as if beckoning to me.
My destination is this beautiful secret realm, and each visit brings me new sensations. This autumn, I have decided to drive myself to deeply experience the magical charm of the grasslands.
In the morning, as I drive through the bumpy dirt roads and enter the grasslands, a fresh scent of grass greets me. I stop the car, bathe in the sunlight, and gaze at the scenery before me, as if entering a fairy-tale world.
The grasslands here are not a monotonous green; in autumn, they undergo a gorgeous transformation. Golden wildflowers are scattered everywhere, adorning the green grass, creating a scene like a moving oil painting. I walk through the seas of flowers, deeply inhaling the fragrance that nature exudes.
I continue to drive, occasionally encountering herds of cattle grazing leisurely on the grasslands. They sometimes bow their heads to nibble, sometimes play and jump with each other, as if showing their love for this land. I can't help but think that the grasslands are the home of these animals; they coexist harmoniously with nature, forming part of this beautiful scenery.
When the sun sets, I choose an ideal spot to stop the car. The endless sky in the distance is dyed red by the afterglow, brilliant as fire. At dusk, the grasslands are enveloped in an orange halo, as if the earth has been draped in a beautiful garment. I am intoxicated by the magnificent scenery, feeling the power of nature.
As night falls, the starry sky's dazzling pearls adorn the black curtain. I walk on the grasslands, feeling the breeze gently brushing my face. The grass and the stars, illuminated by the moonlight, form a poetic and continuous fairyland. I sit quietly on the lawn, looking up at the stars, seeking inspiration in this tranquility.
When leaving the Ulan Buh grasslands, I resolve to return to this beautiful secret realm, to feel the charm of nature once more. The autumn fairyland of the Ulan Buh grasslands in Keshiketeng Banner has allowed me to appreciate the endless charm of the grasslands. It has provided me with endless creative inspiration and has deeply moved me by the power of nature.

Having grasped the vastness of the universe, I still cherish the greenery of plants and trees
The autumn grasslands, where all things merge into distant mountains like dark green eyebrows, and heaven and earth blend into one hue. The sky is as blue as a gemstone, clouds as white as cotton, and the sunlight sprinkles on the earth, warm and pleasant. This season is the most beautiful moment of the Ulan Butong Grassland in Keshiketeng Banner, Chifeng.
The car steadily enters the grassland, and the wind from the window brings a cool breeze, with the primitive scent and the vast beauty rushing towards me. A sense of expectation and excitement arises in my heart, as if I am in a fairy tale world.
Along the way, herds of cattle and sheep leisurely graze on the green grass, as if dancing to a wonderful rhythm. At the edge of the grassland, patches of cosmos flowers bloom into a colorful sea of flowers, like a splendid and colorful painting. In the distance, horses gallop, and flocks of wild birds soar in the sky, forming a beautiful natural picture.
Following the navigation, I drive forward. Suddenly, a lake appears before my eyes. The lake water is as calm as a mirror, reflecting the sky and distant mountains, stunningly beautiful. I get out of the car, step onto the gentle slope by the lake, and crush a small piece of green plant in my hand, immediately releasing a fresh grassy fragrance. I close my eyes, take a deep breath, as if I can smell the breath of nature.
Continuing to drive, I arrive at a famous campsite. This is a gathering place for tourists, with cozy tents, delicious roasted whole lamb, and a blazing bonfire. As night falls, the stars are brilliant, as if covering the entire sky. I sit by the bonfire, listening to the local herders playing the Morin Khuur, feeling peaceful and content.
The next day, I come to the most famous attraction of Keshiketeng Banner—Chifeng. Here is a magnificent and splendid palace, with golden walls reflecting the sunlight, dazzling to behold. I slowly ascend the steps, and the viewing platform at the top allows me to see the entire beauty of Chifeng. Surrounded by mountains and shrouded in clouds, it's like being in a fairyland.
Leaving Chifeng, I drive towards the end of the Ulan Butong Grassland. This is the end of the grassland and the northernmost place in Inner Mongolia. Standing here, I can feel the vastness and infinite power of nature. The grassland here seems to have no boundaries, connected to the sky and merged with the earth.
The autumn journey through the Ulan Butong Grassland has allowed me to experience the unique charm of natural beauty. The vast grassland, the freely running cattle and sheep, and the dancing flowers have all become unique memories deep in my heart. I promise myself that whenever the hustle and bustle of the city overwhelms me, I will return here to find inner peace and freedom.
