This beautiful grassland is located on the outskirts of Baotou City. Transportation is not very convenient. Every spring and summer, the grassland is full of flowers, embellishing the green earth with various colors. It is very beautiful and the scenic area is open to the public free of charge.

First time to experience RV, it was great!! The scenery was beautiful, the facilities were good, the service attitude was great, the stay was very comfortable, and it was a very unforgettable experience and memory. Feeding lambs, archery, catching up with a company's team building, having a bonfire party together, watching the sunset and sunrise... all were very wonderful. Also, the barbecue was delicious.

The ranch is located at the foot of Dayin Mountain. It is very large, with endless lush grass and beautiful natural scenery. It was mid-autumn when we went there. Because it is far away from the city, there are not many tourists and it is very quiet.
