Magnificent and Unique Landscapes: Ejina boasts 440,000 mu (approximately 1,000 hectares) of natural Populus euphratica forest, the world's best-preserved native vegetation and the largest in China's desert regions. In autumn, the vibrant golden leaves contrast beautifully with the desert, Gobi, grasslands, and lakes, creating a picturesque spectacle. The Reflection Forest at Erdao Bridge and the Dream Forest at Qidao Bridge are particularly captivating, resembling a fairyland.
Ejina Populus euphratica forest, be sure to go to see the golden Populus euphratica tree every year in early October, when you arrive in the Populus euphratica garden, it is really shocking to the poplar tree, like a sea, golden yellow, leaves like flowers, like clouds, I am on October 8 to one Ejina Populus euphratica forest scenic spot. There are a small number of dead yellow Populus euphratica trees, But there are still a lot of Populus euphratica or golden, the scenic spot is very big, we go in at 10 o'clock in the morning, and we can only play at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. It is a pity that we will not go to this life.

The experience of having tour guide Song Peng was very good. Every instruction was very clear. The car departed on time. He was very capable. He prepared some precautions for the tour items and some water for us in advance. He was like a big head. He carefully introduced the differences between each island and recommended the favorite items and ways of playing according to our needs. It was quite tight to visit two islands in one day, but there was no discomfort. I was very happy during the process.
The itinerary was very compact and reasonable, but there was plenty of free time. The tour guide gave a lot of tips on local food and drink, as well as some opinions. He told us about some historical changes in the buildings, which was interesting and vivid. The bus driver was very skilled, and the whole journey was very smooth. I slept on the bus until the end. I felt that the whole free time was very sufficient. The bus driver was considerate and lively, and gave souvenirs. His business skills were also very strong! He remembered everyone's needs and responded promptly.

Overall, it's okay. This is for the Dazhao Wuliang Temple, a sacred Tibetan Buddhist site. It's quite unique. Although I haven't been to the famous Dazhao Wuliang Temple in Tibet, it was still a good experience. It's a sacred Buddhist site, and while there are certainly signs prohibiting photography in many areas, it doesn't affect your enjoyment of this sacred Tibetan Buddhist site. It's a truly unique experience.
The location is excellent. After visiting the Dazhao Temple, you can walk to the nearby Saishang Old Street, and then go to the Xilituzhao Temple across the road. It is a little smaller than the Dazhao Temple. When traveling, the goal is to go in and take a look.

The Ulan Butong Scenic Area is truly worth a visit. The air is fresh, the autumn leaves are golden, the lake is azure, and the cattle, sheep, and horses are running freely. It is truly beautiful.
The second time we visited was during the off-season, when there were fewer people and the scenery was beautiful. The experience was strong, including horseback riding, archery, and eating lamb skewers. The scenery was so beautiful that every picture was a blockbuster. It felt like we were traveling back in time, far away from the city.

There is nothing much to play, just natural scenery, take various cars out of the ditch, there are grass skiing, water skiing, 50 yuan per time, the ticket includes the performance, a bit expensive. The scenery is not bad
The blue sky and white clouds grassland, the scenery is beautiful on a sunny day, there is a lot of traffic in the scenic area, the Internet celebrity train took, the elderly and children did not feel tired all the way down, there is grass skiing at their own expense, the scenery on the cable car in the ditch is the most beautiful, but there is nothing fun in the ditch. I came out to watch the Aobao performance, which was not bad.

Arshan is very beautiful, the yellow is very dazzling. Although it was not completely yellow when I came, it is really super beautiful. The paid attractions and free attractions have their own beauty, but I still love the paid attractions. Tuofengling Tianchi, Tianchi, and Dichi are all beautiful.
The autumn scenery was stunning, and the service was excellent, especially the scenic shuttle bus driver, who patiently explained everything.
I suggest the scenic area provide detailed bus directions, as they're quite confusing for most first-time visitors.
I repeatedly read the official guide on the scenic area's website before departure, but still couldn't figure out how to get on the bus.
Thinking about the scenic shuttle bus drivers having to explain everything over and over again every day is exhausting.

Volcanoes are one of Ulanqab's most striking features. Regardless of your experience, a visit is essential. Volcano No. 8 is highly recommended; it's incredibly dark and hot, and truly captivating. The beautiful scenery created by the volcano, the blue sky, white clouds, grasslands, and cattle and sheep is a highlight of the scenic area.
This kind of attraction requires off-peak travel and good weather to fully experience. I visited the volcano on Friday. The entire route was smooth. I easily climbed the mountainside of Volcano 6 and then descended to the crater in a go-kart. Ctrip issued my ticket quickly, and I could enter the park by simply scanning the QR code. It was very convenient.

Very worth going. Every year 6-8 month is the best travel time, architectural aesthetics and exotic customs, unique border scenery and rich cultural connotation combine, bring new experiences and happiness to tourists
The whole walk is still quite leg-consuming. I look at the three countries at a glance. The left is Mongolia and the right is Russia. The door is very spectacular. It is the fifth generation of the door. Standing here, my heart can't be proud of the colorful Matryoshka Square. I walk and watch, I don't feel tired, I just feel that my eyes are not enough. Color application is too bold, too dazzling, Manzhouli, full of vitality, worth walking!

One word: beautiful; two words: really beautiful; three words: very beautiful; four words: breathtakingly beautiful; five words: beautiful beyond words; six words: incomparably beautiful!
Hulunbuir Grassland and Moergele River Scenic Area are located in the same place. The entrance is free, but a bus ticket costs 40 yuan per person. It includes three viewing platforms. The scenery is beautiful and spectacular. The grass should be taller in June.

Taking my mother out for the first time, it was a fun experience to charter a train for a different mode of transportation. However, the services and facilities at the stops, such as if there were no animals at the forest pasture, could we have been informed in advance so that everyone could decide whether to get off the train.
It is definitely worth a visit, where you can enjoy the autumn colors of Daxinganling. We drove into the scenic area by ourselves, and there were many places to see. The park set up temporary parking areas on many sections of the road for convenient parking and taking pictures. The autumn colors of Daxinganling are pleasant and there are views at every step.
