🌟Highlights:
The main attractions of the Huitengxile Grassland Huanghuagou Scenic Area include Huanghuagou Grassland Cultural Resort, Huanghuagou Fresh Flower Grassland, Niudangou Ecological Valley, Naris Taiyuan Primitive Forest Park, Huanghua Town, and Huanghuagou Geological Park. At the end of 2014, the scenic area was successfully upgraded to a national 4A-level tourist attraction. In 2023, it was selected as one of the first batch of autonomous region-level intangible cultural heritage tourism experience bases.
Visiting Huitengxile Grassland, the most unmissable is the diverse natural landscape of Huanghuagou, the volcanic rock canyon, Ninety-nine Springs Guiyi Spring Holy Mother Spring, century-old Huanghua poplar, thousand-year-old birch forest, and high-mountain meadow grassland. These five natural landscapes are the 'Five Wonders' of Huanghuagou, with extremely high cultural and tourism value, making it a superb spot for taking photos.
📌Little Tips:
1. The temperature is low, pay attention to keeping warm in the morning and evening.
2. Purchase an experience ticket, and get a free scenic area ticket, the price of the experience ticket does not include the ticket price.
3. Purchase an experience ticket and share the designated promotional video of the scenic area, and get a free large-scale cultural and artistic boutique drama 'Meeting at Aobao'.
4. The transportation projects included in the experience ticket are limited to one experience each.
5. If there is high pressure in the queue at the transportation boarding points, please follow the scenic area's diversion arrangements to reduce queuing time and enhance the tourism experience.
6. There is a large temperature difference in the scenic area in the morning and evening, the wind is strong, and the ultraviolet rays are intense, please bring cold-proof, wind-proof, and sun-proof equipment.
7. There are many horse riding spots in the Huitengxile Grassland, with varying prices. It is recommended to choose the official horse riding field of the scenic area (west side of the south entrance), where service and price are guaranteed.
The price of the ticket in summer feels high, and it is incomprehensible that the child is also a full-price ticket. There are still a lot of people. I have been queuing up for a long time to take the ropeway. I can't do it without doing it. There is a line, the ropeway, and there are various cars behind. All of them are in the fare. If you don't queue up, you have to walk for a long time. It is very big. So you can only queue up when the summer is hot. The slides inside, all the rides are at your own expense, and you can pay in addition. The performance behind feels like you don't see it. It's boring to sell words and paintings.
The tourist route and logo of the attractions are recommended to be more perfect. Many tourists don’t know how to go, let alone where they are, but the staff are very enthusiastic. They tell the tourists the details of the tour over and over again, making up for the unpleasantness brought by the scenic operation model.
We arrived at the scenic spot at 4 pm. The scenery along the grassland train was very beautiful, and then we went to the park to get off work. It was completely dark. To be honest, the first time I experienced the grassland scenic spot to close the door, I went to the road to meet the off-duty staff to take us to the cable car. It was dark and no one at night, it was quite scary, but it also felt like living in the wild. Finally, it was dark and quiet around the cable car. The experience was still great. We were the last few tourists out of the park. We had a deep memory!

I have been entangled whether to go to the volcano or go to Huanghuagou volcano. It is more suitable for young people to take pictures and punch in. Because the traffic jam on the small fake volcano is very powerful, we decided to go to Huanghuagou in advance. There is a performance at the ticket office at the door. The whole traffic ticket bought online. The whole process can be done without going to Huanghuagou is very recommended because the scenery is so beautiful. It is more easy to buy a full traffic ticket. Take the all-inclusive cable car, open-air cable car, carriage, and small train. Let you experience different transportation on the grassland.
