What is your best hotel so far? In my case, I have a few in mind but Shangri-La is definitely one of them. The price might be higher compared to any other hotels but the service is a topnotch. As we all know Shangri-La has many branches in the world. And this one is located in Baotou City, Inner Mongolia. The hotel building is huge. It has a restaurant, swimming pool, kid's playing area and parking. Our room was on the 16th floor which was awesome.The view was fantastic. We booked the King Bedroom and it is spacious. Of course, it has a bathtub. The guests can also have breakfast. We stayed there for 2 nights with no regrets. Great! #fallingforfall #hotelstay #tripinspired #tripmoments

A tour group stop off. A trip to the grasslands in Inner Mongolia in my mind was going to be a chance to see horses roaming, yurts on the lands and try some tasty new foods. And in its own way it was that. Did we stay in yurts? Yes. Did we see horses in the Grasslands? Yes. Did we have a banquet of traditional foods? Yes A trip that ticks boxes of what you'd hoped is a start, but this is a tourist centre and unfortunately the authenticity was missing, the rows of yurts across the area, horse riding tours and a dinner with live entertainment, all slightly different to the brochure. But with a group of friends it was great! A chance to dress up, make a fool of yourselves in the entertainment shows and try local dishes. Walking through the grasslands was cool and we saw camels cows and horses roaming. The yurts are ok for a night and it's something to tell your friends and family about. Getting There- For the grasslands it's likely that you'll need a tour provider, coach or rental car. Food- The food consisted mainly of lamb dishes; including ribs, skewers, stews and kebabs. The flat breads were remiscent of middle eastern food and the flavour was generally a lightly salted and mild spices. In the grasslands they also has a number of dairy snacks that tasted something like mashup of toffee and cheddar cheese. Sweet, salty and something I'm still not sure if I like or not, but worth trying.

Thankful for the opportunity to travel and live in China for a year, getting to teach these precious little ones English and exchange culture with them too. They LOVE learning about Halloween and all of the American holidays, plus I love learning about all of theirs! :]

The five famous Tibetan Buddhist temples near Baotou, Inner Mongolia, are named "The Four Famous Temples of Tibetan Buddhism in China" with the Potala Palace in Tibet, the Ta'er Monastery in Qinghai, and the Labrang Monastery in Gansu. Five calls for 60 yuan, Mongolian, Tibetan and other ethnic minorities can offer. There are two choices from the gate of the park to the five-day call. One is the battery car, and the other is to go by yourself. I did not hesitate to choose the latter. Actually, the road to the five-day call is very good, flat and not far. But there was a hill next to it, and the view to the top of the mountain was very good, so I went up the mountain. The hills are undulating all the way, and people are going up and down the road. Every hilltop has Mani piles and prayer flags, and the sun is colorful. Over the top of the mountain, I finally saw the five-day call. This temple group is not large, and it is small and restrained compared to the temples in Tibet and Qinghai. Quietly standing in an unknown valley. In the autumn, the temples in the sun exude a charming light. Five is the largest and largest temple called Su Guzhen. It is allowed to visit in the temple, but it is not allowed to take pictures. There is a house next to the Sugu Temple, called Rongken, which is a place for tea and lunch for the monks. There are four large pots built in. It is said that the largest pot can cook 1,500 pounds of beef. Five when there are a total of nine halls. But most of them are only open to the public when they have statutes. Each stand has not only a map but also a code. If you can't get in, you can watch the inside through the computer 3D landscape. Suddenly ran over a kitten, not afraid of people at all, but also went to the arms of people. At first glance, the monks in the temple are very good at it. Now I think the color of Tibetan architecture is very high. It is not the kind of red and green that is advertised, but the combination of dark brown, brick red and white. Occasionally, bright yellow, very beating. Especially on sunny days, people feel comfortable. When I arrived at the five-day call, I felt that I would return to Tibet in a moment, and the sun was as strong and pure as Tibet.

Hulunbeier has a vast territory and various scenic spots are scattered far away. Therefore, the common ways of traveling in Hulunbuir are these car rental Hulunbeier terrain, navigation in the grassland and forest hinterland are blind areas, mobile phone signal is weak Or no, problems or rescues are difficult to solve, and some beautiful scenery are in the grasslands or in the no-man's land in the depths of Senli.

If you encounter the experienced caravan master, the route is familiar, the requirements of the guests can be satisfied, and the photography points are familiar, then you are earned. If you encounter a big flicker, but also a little bit of snakes, and the route, scenery, and itinerary do not understand, then your travel is basically scrapped, so be sure to understand in depth to make decisions. Travel agency group is the travel agency bus, the guide guides where to go, the basic scenic spot is the main road, the scenery does not stop on the road, the bus in the depths of the grassland can not enter, the schedule is tight, Dont eat a group meal. If your registration fee is lower, congratulations and you have another point of attractions shopping store. Outdoor group is organized by outdoor clubs. The itinerary is deeper and more leisurely. However, in recent years, many outdoor clubs in the field have a low quality of team trips to Hulunbeier because of the familiarity with Hulunbeier. Not enough, there are subcontracts to the local land to extract profits, local land to receive limited profits, the quality of play is also reduced, the problem is to kick the ball back and forth, it is recommended to choose a local outdoor company directly docked as well.

Hiking and rock formations is so cool

Hey there, friends~ Echo is back again! Today, I want to share a hidden gem I discovered in Baotou—Xinzhi Hotel (Baotou Airport Branch). First off, let me just say, Inner Mongolia is truly an amazing place. Imagine galloping on horseback across the grasslands under a sky of blue and white clouds, and at night, gazing up at a sky full of stars—just thinking about it makes me feel refreshed. Of course, besides the natural beauty, we also need a comfortable place to stay, right? That’s where Xinzhi Hotel comes in, and my stay there was absolutely fantastic! Waking up feeling like you’re sleeping in the clouds Honestly, the thing that won me over the most about this hotel is their Mily Zero-Pressure Mattress. The moment I lay down at night, it felt like I was gently wrapped in a cloud. I woke up the next day full of energy, completely free from travel fatigue. Plus, the rooms are equipped with a full smart control system—just a tap of your finger and everything is taken care of. So convenient! Picture-perfect views outside the window lift your spirits Xinzhi Hotel’s location is truly excellent.

| Wudang Lamasery | You've got to see this place. Baotou｜Wudang Lamasery Located in Baotou City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Wudang Lamasery is often called "Inner Mongolia's own Potala Palace" due to its unique status and characteristics. Built during the Kangxi era of the Qing Dynasty, it was originally named Badagar Lamasery (in Tibetan, "Badagar" means "white lotus"; in Mongolian, "Wudang" means "willow tree"; and "Lamasery" refers to a temple). Wudang Lamasery is the largest Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Inner Mongolia and is renowned alongside Tibet's Potala Palace, Qinghai's Kumbum Monastery, and Gansu's Labrang Monastery as one of China's four great Tibetan Buddhist monasteries. Navigation🧭: Wudang Valley, Qingwu Line, Shiguai District, Baotou City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (about 60 km from downtown Baotou), Parking Lot 2 of Wudang Lamasery Scenic Area🅿️ Ticket🎫: 55 yuan (Mongolian and Tibetan visitors with ID cards can enter for free). During the Chinese New Year, climbing to worship Buddha is also completely free. Inner Mongolia is usually covered in snow at this time, offering different scenic views from various angles. After visiting Kumbum Monastery and Labrang Monastery, Wudang Lamasery doesn't feel small at all. Exploring the entire scenic area thoroughly—worshiping, taking photos, hiking, and feeding deer🦌—can easily take up to 3 hours. Most temples are built on mountains, and Wudang Lamasery is situated on the slopes of Wudang Valley, surrounded by mountains. Visitors with mobility issues who only wish to offer incense can go directly to the temple upon entering the scenic area. For those wanting to capture a panoramic view from above, a hike up and down a 1,500-meter-altitude mountain path is required. There is a bus🚌 from Baotou East Station to Wudang Lamasery. Since the lamasery is far from the city, speed limits apply along the way, and traffic can be heavy when the scenic area closes. Self-driving visitors are advised to visit early and leave early.

Wudang Lamasery, a tranquil temple hidden deep in the grasslands. 🌞Built against the mountain, the Wudang Lamasery Scenic Area is staggered in height. As you climb the steps, a panoramic view of a Tibetan Buddhist architectural complex unfolds before you when you look back, catching your breath. 🍃In early spring, Wudang Lamasery is filled with tranquility and devout believers. The incense permeating the temple adds to its mystery. ❄Wudang Lamasery in the snow seems to be covered with a mysterious veil. The alternating snow and clear skies seem to bring hope and happiness to believers in another way. 🪷As a Tibetan Buddhist academy in Inner Mongolia, Wudang Lamasery is the alma mater of many lamas. They can only continue to be promoted through various assessment methods such as chanting scriptures, copying scriptures, and debating scriptures. There is no shortage of masters strolling in the temple. I wonder if they are also escaping from the classroom to breathe freely. 🏃Accustomed to the traffic of the city, the tense atmosphere of the meeting room, the nameless pressure of studying and exams, and the intrigue of the workplace, give yourself a vacation, go to Inner Mongolia, go to Wudang Lamasery, go to pursue a pure land, and relax your soul~ Wudang Lamasery also has fixed spring festivals and sacrificial activities. You can visit Wudang Lamasery according to your needs. As the docent said: With the blessings of Wudang Lamasery, I wish you good luck and happiness. Inner Mongolia, China.
