Located near the ancient city, it's convenient for visiting the old town, having lunch, and strolling around afterwards. It's a public park, a great place for morning exercise and breathing in fresh air. You can see the pine trees, collect pine cones, and there are also some play equipment for children.

The museum lets you enter with your ID card, which is convenient! There's also a free luggage storage room on the first floor, which is very convenient. The exhibition hall has three floors, and it offers a glimpse into the history and cultural changes of Inner Mongolia over time. A thorough tour will take you about three hours. I highly recommend this museum.

Patriotism education, the entire history of the war is introduced in detail. There are two parts to watch, one is the exhibition hall, and the other is the ruins of the fortress built by the Japanese at that time. The ruins are underground and very cold, so you have to see them quickly.

The Yimin River is rich in water and grass, and the environment is well protected. There are a large number of wild birds in the oasis in the river. The river water is clear, and the buildings are reflected in the river, which is very beautiful.
