Things to do in Zhuozi

For off-peak travel, I highly recommend visiting Hongshiya in October. The alpine meadows and light snow on the mountain peaks are absolutely stunning. There are fewer people, making it easier to take great photos. You should definitely drive there. Also, be sure to dress warmly, as it can be freezing cold below 10°C!

The package deal was quite reasonable. We bought the Nanshan Route 1 ticket, but Route 1 includes the zoo, which requires going down the mountain to transfer to Route 2 to go up again, meaning we had to climb the mountain once more or take a ride on a tarpaulin, so we didn't go. The wind was best on the mountain, and the cosmos flowers around the cable car station were beautiful! The high-altitude swing, the thrilling "Step by Step" ride, and the rainbow slide were all very exciting! The middle school students had a great time! A single ride takes about 2 hours.

Shengshuiliang Jiulong Bay truly hides a treasure trove of autumn scenery in Inner Mongolia. On a clear day, the blue sky and white clouds against the backdrop of the mountains and fields are exceptionally soothing. Taking the cable car to the summit, the view opens up dramatically upon exiting. The trails are flanked by vast birch forests on one side and robust coniferous forests on the other, creating a rich tapestry of colors that makes for beautiful photos from every angle. The mountaintop meadow stretches out expansively, where you can see camels and horses leisurely grazing. The colors of the forest unfold along the mountainside, offering a vast and expansive vista. Driving here, the scenery is breathtaking, making it perfect for those who love mountain landscapes, allowing you to immerse yourself in the unique tranquility and vastness of the autumn mountains.

The meeting at the Aobao and the acrobatic performance were both excellent. What's the meaning of the little train and the animal-drawn cart? The shuttle bus down to the bottom of the valley was a great experience, a rapid descent, like riding a roller coaster. As for the cable car up the mountain, I'm afraid of heights, so I won't comment. The scenery was beautiful, with panoramic views of the grasslands, rolling mountains, strange willows and birch forests, and babbling brooks. Prices at the bottom of the valley were reasonable. Excellent value for money. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Free milk tea was provided.

风景美如画，值得一去，骑马射箭卡丁车，手把肉

In mid-October, the Huitengxile Grassland was ablaze with yellow grass, the wind was strong, and tourists were few, lending the landscape a sense of vastness and tranquility. We chartered a car to enter the grassland, our first stop being the Niubaba Scenic Area. Without the hustle and bustle of peak season, the grassland revealed its true nature. Driving along the Windmill Avenue, huge white windmills lined the road, turning slowly in the wind, creating a picturesque scene against the golden grassland. The white yurts stood out against the backdrop of the grassland; the nearby lake was serene, with withered grass swaying on the banks, adding a unique autumnal charm. Along the way, we also saw vast golden pine forests, sunlight filtering through the branches and casting dappled shadows; herds of cattle and sheep grazed peacefully. Though the wind was strong, it couldn't dispel the vastness and serenity. Late autumn in Huitengxile, while lacking the lush green of summer, offered a truly pure grassland experience with its golden hues, open spaces, and free-flowing winds.

[Scenery] It was already September when I went there, and a lot of grass had turned yellow. Plus it was cloudy, so the photos might not be very good. [Fun] Many facilities were damaged, and there were camel rides for taking photos in the scenic area. [Value for money] I thought it was free, but in fact, the road for private cars to go up the mountain in the scenic area was closed. There was a sign saying that for safety reasons, private cars and tourists were not allowed to go up the mountain alone. If you want to go up the mountain, you must spend 30 yuan to buy a round-trip sightseeing ticket.

Mingxinggou is a small, less crowded attraction with a wide variety of activities and beautiful scenery. The package includes children's off-roading, archery, a miniature train, a slide, and a tank ride. Adults can enjoy beautiful photos. It's quite nice.
