The leaves in Meilingu have turned yellow, but not completely.

Avoid the crowds during the National Day holiday and head north from Beijing to less crowded places. Overall self-driving plan: Beijing - Guyuan Grassland Sky Road - Duolun Lake (overnight) - Re Shuitang (overnight) - Re A Line - Highway 99 - Balin Right Banner (overnight) - Hohhot - Chifeng City (overnight) - Meilingu - Chengde (overnight) - Beijing. The last stop of the self-driving tour is Meilingu. Meilingu is located in Chifeng Karaqin Banner. As the name suggests, it is indeed very beautiful, with various landforms, and there is also a Kangning Temple built in the Yuan Dynasty more than 700 years ago. It is a secret place very close to Beijing. The entire Meilingu scenic area currently has no traces of commercialization and no management intervention, which also means that with the increase in popularity, public health and environmental problems are becoming increasingly prominent. It must be said that this place is very suitable for camping along the scenic greenway. There are many suitable camping spots. Many cars and crowds are setting up tents for camping. But there are a few places where you can drive in and see garbage everywhere, and there are a few traces of open flames. It can be foreseen that if there is no operation by the management, it may not last long. I hope that friends who come here to camp can protect this secret place.
