    Not as good as the scenery of Chunhui Mountain a little farther from the city, but the city is really convenient. Also note that there was a road that people stepped out of, and there was a grassland scenic spot written next to it. I thought I could get to the farthest road. As a result, the grass became deeper and the same as people. The same high, and the original road turned back... (Figure 3, please note)

    As a parent of a boy, it was worth taking him here. He loved it and looked at everything. There weren't many entertainment facilities inside, just some retired aircraft and cannons.

    Despite its somewhat remote location, Yili Health Valley boasts a wealth of activities. During the National Day holiday, there were many interactive games and additional guided tours. The scenic area primarily features two areas: powdered milk and liquid milk. Guided tours offer a detailed understanding of the entire powdered milk or milk processing process. The well-designed circulation and affordable admission make it a worthwhile trip.

    It's definitely worth a visit. My favorite part is the Great Wall exhibition hall, which not only has a very detailed text introduction, but also displays numerous artifacts and large-screen video explanations. It's worth a visit if you want to learn more about the subject matter. Be sure to avoid the peak summer vacation period, when there are many study tour groups, which can affect your viewing experience. You might not be able to get close to the key artifacts.

    I visited Hohhot during the National Day holiday and went to the Daqingshan Wildlife Park. Upon entering the park, I was greeted by lush greenery and fresh air. I was able to see various animals up close. The experience was fantastic!

    It's not far from downtown Hohhot, about 20 kilometers, and it's easy to get a taxi. The snow is OK, but the snow suit I rented is a bit worn out. There are several beginner trails and one advanced trail, and the intermediate trail seems to have not been repaired yet.

    I was a little disappointed after taking bus 92 to the Chulechuan Grassland stop. There was no grassland, just a desolate meadow with very short, dry grass. In the distance, I saw a building that looked like a yurt, went inside for a quick look, took a photo with a sculpture of a Mongolian beauty, and then came out via a road near the mountains. There was a bus stop for bus 115 by the roadside. After waiting a while, the bus arrived (it came from the Red Education Base), and I rode for two stops before finally reaching the core scenic area! It was breathtaking! Grasslands, towering green mountains, and babbling rivers were all within easy reach, a truly beautiful sight. The only downside was that I didn't see any horses or sheep. For the return trip, I first took bus 115 to the Red Education Base, then transferred to bus 92. Bus 115 is a suburban bus, running approximately every hour, so be mindful of your travel time. No entrance fee is required.

    Family! Maqishan Ski Resort is really fun! I, a skiing white, went to experience the primary road. I was tired and happy for 3 hours. The price of the ski resort was super cost-effective. The 3-hour primary road ticket was not expensive and worth the money. It is very convenient to take the subway from the city to the airport and take a taxi. The middle and high-end roads in the snow field look super exciting, super envious of those big gods! By the way, remember to rent protective equipment outside in advance, and there are few expensive styles in the snow field. Hohhot people are also super enthusiastic, come back next time!

    The sunset is beautiful, the alpine grassland is stunning, the scenic area is very convenient to drive by, the ticket is still a bit expensive, the scenery is still better in summer. Navigate to Tianci Grassland and drive all the way up. When you see the sign of Sky Grassland, go a little higher and you can watch the sunset. Remember to bring a down jacket

    The tickets I booked for the children were very convenient; we entered by scanning a QR code. "Of the nine strategic passes under heaven, Yanmen Pass is the foremost," and today we are at Yanmen Pass. Just as we arrived at the entrance of the scenic area, at the wall of famous figures and the statue of the Yang family generals, the park was playing "Eternal Chang'an City," which made me feel a little sentimental.
