Inner Mongolia Tour of
Xilamuren Grassland
|
|
Having visited many historic sites and climbed several
famous mountains, are you eager to experience grassland life? Thus
Xilamuren Grassland should be a good choice!
Lying about ninety kilometers (about 56 miles) north of
Hohhot, Xilamuren Grassland is the first grassland tourist
attraction opened in Hohhot. Xilamuren means 'yellow water' in
Mongolian.
The best time to visit the grassland is in summer and
autumn. At this time of year, the pleasant climate, the blue sky and
white clouds, the rolling grass, the wandering flocks and herds, the
passionate herdsmen and their Mongolian food will undoubtedly leave
you with a deep impression. During the Nadam Festival held every
summer, tourists can enjoy a series of different activities,
including camel riding, horse racing, wrestling, archery, a camp
fire party and singing and dancing. You can even take part in some
of the competitions that you are interested in. A big surprise is
probably waiting for you!
Moreover, on Xilamuren Grassland, there is a Lama
Temple built in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). It is the Puhui
Temple, which should not be missed on your trip to Xilamuren
Grassland. Originally it was the temporary palace for the sixth
Xilituzhao living Buddha. Now it is a complex of three halls with
carved ceilings and painted beams. The beautiful Xilamuren River
surrounds the temple, presenting a peaceful and harmonious
atmosphere.
Don't hesitate to pay a visit to Xilamuren Grassland.
It won't disappoint you!
