Travel to Xilingol
Accidentally entering the desktop of a Windows 7 computer, this is my impression of the early autumn in the Xilingol grassland. At this time, the grassland is still wearing green clothes, horses leisurely lower their heads to chew grass, sheep lazily step in the gentle breeze, and clouds graze above the yurts.
Coming to Xilingol at this time is not only to escape the high temperatures of the south but also to witness the exciting 2024 Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Mongolian Horse Super League.
With the spectacular performances of the opening ceremony, the thrilling competitions are also counting down. Horse lassoing, 30-kilometer endurance race for Mongolian horses, 9-kilometer team relay race, horse archery competition... Each horse-related competition makes people feel excited.
Xilingol has a profound horse culture. The blooming canola flowers in August at the Baiyin Xile Ranch seem to be a garland for this league. This Baiyin Xile Ranch, known as the 'Golden Grassland,' offers interactive activities such as horse riding and archery. You can also visit the Horse Culture Experience Hall to learn about the history of horses.
Xiwuzhumuqin Banner, also known as the 'Hometown of White Horses in China,' is the best choice to experience white horses at the White Horse Cultural Park.
Taipusi Banner, known as the 'Hometown of Royal Horse Culture,' has a long history of horse culture. Besides the local Mongolian horses, many famous horses from around the world can be found at the Royal Horse Garden in Taipusi Banner. If you want to experience it, you must not miss this place.
You should also try the authentic Mongolian cuisine here, such as hand-grabbed meat, blood sausage, milk tea, etc. With the Mid-Autumn Festival approaching, don't miss their uniquely flavored milk skin mooncakes.
Regret not coming to Highway 99 earlier
I have been to Inner Mongolia many times, but I have never been to Highway 99 in the Xilingol League's West Ujimqin Banner grassland. It's so beautiful 🌱, once you go, you won't want to leave.
🌈 Scenic Features: The line in the middle of Highway 99 is rainbow-colored, and the key is that it is on the vast grassland, which is incredibly beautiful. It is known as the 'most beautiful grassland highway.'
The entire road is about 160 kilometers long, passing through multiple scenic spots along the way, including Wulan Five Terraces Scenic Area, Mongolian Khan City, Nomadic Tribe, Birch Forest, Yaolu Hairehan Mountain, and everywhere is a scenery.
🎟️ Ticket Information: Free of charge, no tickets required.
🕐️ Scenic Area Opening Hours: Open all day, but it is not recommended to drive after dark.
💗 Other Tips:
✅ Be sure to drive yourself, renting a car locally is also fine. Photos cannot fully capture its beauty.
✅ Photo Spots:
1. Take a photo at the starting point
2. Take a photo of the big road sign on the ground
3. Take a photo picking flowers by the roadside
4. Take a photo of the rainbow road
5. Take a photo in the birch forest, you can also camp briefly
...
✅ Prepare offline navigation, prepare offline navigation, prepare offline navigation💥
Important things should be said three times because there is occasionally no signal on the way.
✅ If your car has a sunroof, use it safely. It looks great in photos, and the view is different from sitting inside the car.
✅ Still, be sure to protect yourself from the sun.

Daughters of the Prairie
Xilinhot is located in the heart of the Xilingol Prairie, where the Xilingol League is located, and is known as the 'Pearl of the Prairie'. The galloping and majestic Mongolian horses in the Phoenix Ranch are impressive... The beautiful female riders have become a dazzling landscape on the prairie.
Xilin Jiuqu
leaving Pingdingshan, the next destination is Xilin Jiuqu. I have to say that this is the most popular scenic spot in this trip. There are a few free streets on the roadside. When I got to the place, I saw that there was a small river, but because of the lack of water, I couldnt see the landscape of Jiuqu. I walked closer to the fence and the scenery was slightly better. Many tourists went deep and picked the grasslands. On the wildflowers, but overall, not worth the ticket money.

Gray Tengxile grassland,
I like the grassland look,

It is also the place where the wind and horses are galloping.

Opening ceremony. There are Mongolian long-term, praise, songs, matouqin, song and dance performances, and more than 1,000 participants.
In the grassland of the heart, there are songs and wines that laugh and laugh. In this grassland, there are more horrible colors than the imagination in the heart. It is vast and soft, and it is a deserted landscape. This is less of a desolate and lonely "yellow". The curved river is accompanied by a smashed sunset, flowing over the earth like a mirror in the sky, pure white and blue, finely lit sunlight, the refraction of this land, green and luminous, this white and blue is quiet. Flowing on this piece of silk, waiting for a girl with a fresh floral fragrance to pick up her shoulders like ice gelatin.
The Eji Zall salt field, the place is not very big, ten kilometers at the intersection of a road. If the weather is good, the environment is still very good, you can see the Pink Lake. When we arrived here, it was just raining. The road was not very good. If you can bring a drone, you will definitely take a great photo here.
"Wolf Totem" was completed in 7 years, and the film tells the story of the herdsmen and wolves fighting each other for survival in the Inner Mongolia prairie. The film shows the beautiful scenery of the four seasons in the sky and the exciting scenes such as "Wolf Horse Wars" and "Flying Wolf" depicted in the original book. Let's take a look at the location of Wolf Totem. Here is the location of the movie "Wolf Totem". After the filming, the producers did not dismantle all the buildings, but symbolically reserved some buildings for Feng Shaofeng's fans to visit.
The Xilin Gol League Museum is a refinement of the essence of the northern nomadic culture and a historical epitome of the Mongolian culture. The ground building has three floors: the first floor exhibition consists of "Northern Wei Town's Family Tomb" and "Mongolian Empire". The two and three layers are respectively "Prairie Wind" and "Xilin Guoyu Tongshi".
On the first day of the prairie, someone asked me when I was going to ride a horse. It seems that when I came to the grassland, I must feel the speed of riding on the horse.
Yesterday left Mao Ritu to come to the brain to go to the Gobi for a ride through the whole journey, 15 kilometers, set up a total of 4 stations, all the way to collect the seals of the four stations to taste the rich noon to the terminal feast.
Selected a Mongolian horse with a bit of character, although all the way to the buttocks will bloom, but the horse galloping on the grassland Gobi is really a feel [Jesus][][]
Its hard to get up this morning.
Living on the grassland, life becomes simple at once, only the sunrise and sunset, the clouds and clouds, the wind and the clouds...
The life of enjoying a yurt is too good, this time living in Aso The knight ranch MORIT yurt is different from all the yurts I have seen before. The night is accompanied by the sound of the grassland and the moonlight, and the morning is awakened by the sun.
I really dont want to leave here...
Every season, I always think of the grassland, just want to see the horses and lambs graze, look at this vast land, there is a blue sky, sun drying, stunned...
this Once upon a time, the grassland is located in the Xilin Gol Prairie, 60 km from Erenhot, and in the evening at the Knights Ranch Morit Yurt.
After one day, I experienced a storm and a sandstorm, but the blue sky and white clouds that are intermittently revealed are enough to wash my eyes.
For lunch, we dine at the Zhenghong Banner in the old camp in Mongolia. There are dozens of large and small yurts in the old camp, each of which is very large. Here you can taste the most authentic Mongolian food. Pure and special Mongolian food, can make people eat and walk. Hand-caught meat is the most favorite and most commonly used traditional food for the people of all ethnic groups in Inner Mongolia. The "hand-picked meat" is to hold the meat with one hand and the knife, cut, dig, tick, and slice. Eat the meat from the bones of the sheep. In fact, sheep, cattle, horses, camels, scorpions and other livestock or animal meat can cook meat, but it is usually said that the meat is more than the hand. Put the meat in a white water pot without salt and other condiments, burn it with a large fire, keep the original flavor, and properly control the heat. As long as the meat has changed color, it can be eaten. Handcuffed meat is fresh and not smashed
Mongolian old camp, another part of Kublai Than film and television city, just got off the bus and was attracted by the appearance of the old camp. This is how I imagined the scene I saw on TV. A breath stood in front of the camp and it was written with "Mongolian old camp". The four characters are lined with the catapults required for the war and the carts for transporting supplies. The guide said that this is basically the same as the Kublai Khan camp. The only difference is that one is in the Yuan Dynasty and one is in the present. Going forward, a small river surrounds the entire camp, and inside the river is a thick wooden fence that surrounds the entire camp. In the four corners of the camp, there are counters. In order to prevent the enemy from attacking, these have long lost their original role. The most important thing is to leave the tourists with memories of the familiar images. Next to the old camp is a low hill, and there is a clear lake at the foot of the mountain. The lake is sparkling and several small fish swim in it. All the way to the hillside, looking down, yurts, grasslands, rivers, and the river, you can not reach the distance, the eyes.
Inner Mongolia Hucha Culture Industry Development Co., Ltd. invested 1.35 billion yuan in Zheng Lanqi, a kind of storage site, to build the large-scale serial series Kublai Khan. Kublai Than Film and Television City is divided into six shooting bases, including Mongolian Laoying, Luoma Lake, Jinlianchuan Shogunate, Kaiping Wangcheng, etc., building large Genghis Khan statues, Kublai Khan sculptures and Yuan Dynasty emperors and queen sculpture groups, reappearing the Yuan Dynasty. The prosperity of the empire and the scene of Mongolian nomadic life in the Yuan Dynasty interpreted the life of Kublai Khan of Yuan Shizu. The first destination of our trip was Kaiping Wangcheng in Kublai Film Studios. The scenic spot is still under repair, so the current scenic spot is more messy, but I saw what I wanted to see. During the Yuan Dynasty, the soldiers and the country won, and the Kaiping Wangcheng was also a prosperous scene. The majestic Wangfu, carved beams and pavilions, pavilions and towers.
What is Inner Mongolia in your mind? The endless grasslands, except grasslands and grasslands, are not the case. Grasslands account for a large part of Inner Mongolia's area, but not all. Inner Mongolia also has deserts. Many tourists from Beijing will come to Xilin Gol. In order to rectify the dust storm, many deserts in Xilin Gol are now planted with green plants and another landscape. For a moment, you will feel like you are abroad. I came to Inner Mongolia last winter and gave me the feeling that "the most beautiful scenery is on the road", this time too. On the way to the Zhenglan Banner, we saw such a scene. The blue grass grows extraordinarily because of the lake water. The lake is covered with yellow wild chrysanthemums. The low mountains across the lake are reflected in the blue lake. One color is picturesque. The breeze blew, and the water surface formed a ripple of wind. The mountains are blue, the water is green, the sky is blue, I am standing here happy. The beachside is covered with dense wild chrysanthemums, not delicate but fragrant. The grasslands, green hills and lakes form a wonderful landscape. Nature is so magical. Her beauty makes me wonder.
All the people in Inner Mongolia know that many restaurants and scenic spots have countless yurts of all sizes. It is true that these yurts are correct, but they are not really yurts. The real role of yurts is the habitat of Mongolian nomads. In Mongolia Khan, you can see the real yurts, which are made up of horseshoes and wool felts. The locals who graze in this pasture are living in this little yurt. There is also a clean pile of cow dung next to the yurt. Here, cow dung is regarded as a treasure by them, and there is no better firewood than cow dung. As the key measure of Mongolian women's sorrow and sorrow is the size of the cow dung next to the yurt is not big, the larger the dung heap, indicating that the wife is more sage.
The grassland winter has just passed, and the grass has revealed that the sprouts have already made me excited. I have never seen the scene of "the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep". I dont feel half-pity, just because the grassland has satisfied my grassland. All fantasy and expectation. Inner Mongolian men also screamed that horse riding, archery and wrestling are skills that every Inner Mongolian man is good at. When you come to this grassland, you can be an authentic Inner Mongolian man, horses and archery fields are already ready for you. When I first saw the grassland, I couldnt help but feel the excitement. I watched the cattle and sheep that were grazing in the distance, and the excitement turned into silence.
When you come to Inner Mongolia, you can feel the enthusiasm and ritual feeling that you have never felt before. I still remember that at the Damu meeting last winter, the locals who chatted two words eagerly pulled me to his house to eat, and the coldness of minus twenty degrees. Can not stop the enthusiasm. When the car is driving a few hundred meters away from the scenic spot, a Mongolian man rides on a horse. This is the so-called welcoming guest, the highest courtesy of hospitality in Inner Mongolia. When the car arrives at the gate of the scenic spot, the beautiful Mongolian woman presents the white Hada and fills the guests with the kumiss. This is also called the drinking wine. From taking the kumiss to the end of the drink, it is not arbitrary, it is a matter of course. Hands crossed the wine bowl, the ring finger touched the wine and gestured to the heavens. The ring finger touched the wine and gestured downwards. The ring finger touched the forehead and gestured to respect the ancestors. The last drink was exhausted.
Xilin Gol, a magical place. In the morning, the sky is as clean as a cloud, and there is no cloud in the morning; in the morning, the blue sky and white clouds, the clouds and clouds. The endless grassland, the white clouds hanging over the top of the head, rolling from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, this is what my heartland should look like. Stepping up, we came to Genghis Khan Square. When I saw the white clouds on the blue sky, my inner excitement, I also had to admire Xilin Gol really is a magical and wonderful place. A gigantic statue of Genghis Khan stands in the highest place, with a huge stone placed on the middle step, which is engraved with Mao Zedong's high evaluation of "a generation of Tianjiao, Genghis Khan". The most striking thing on the square of Genghis Khan is the Sulu ingots of nine white marbles. The Mongolian language of Sulu ingots means spears, a symbol of Mongolia and a symbol of God of War. It is generally black and white, called "Harazul ingot" and "Chagansulu ingot", meaning "black" and "white", black symbolizes war and power, and white symbolizes peace and authority. According to the rotation of Yelu Chucai, when Tiemuzhen was born in July 1652, he held a piece of fetal blood in his hand. When he opened it, he found it was a pointed diamond pattern. Later generations said that Genghis Khan was holding the "Sulu Ingot" and was born as a hero sent by the gods to save the Mongolian nation. Since then, Sulu ingots represent the god of war, representing Genghis Khan, expressing supremacy
The Qidong Wuzhumuyu Archery Competition
Arrow is another project of the Mongolian traditional "Men's Three Skills" and one of the earliest activities of the Nadam.
The sharpshooter enjoys a high honor on the grassland. In ancient times, after the name of the warrior, "Mozhgan" or "Battle" was often added. The Mongolian word "Mozhgen" has the meaning of the archer. The Mongolian archery competition consists of three types: split, shoot, and long shot. There are 25 steps, 50 steps, and 100 steps. The competition is not limited to men, women and children. All participants have their own horses and bows, the style of bows and arrows, the tension of the bow and the length and weight of the arrows are not limited. The rules of the game are three rounds and nine arrows, that is, each person can only shoot three arrows per round, and the top three in the number of target arrows.
The scene of archery is very spectacular. The archer takes a bow, arrows, arrows and arrows on the bumpy horseback. The three arrows are shot on the specified runway. It is very disgraceful if the shot is not finished. The feeling at the scene is no less than any sporting event.
