Don't just focus on Hulunbuir when traveling to Inner Mongolia! Bayannur, this unassuming little gem, not only earns its nickname "Jiangnan on the Great Wall," but also boasts stunning grassland scenery and unique cuisine. 🌾
[Must-See Attractions]
1️⃣ Yinshan Rock Paintings
Dating back over 6,000 years, the vivid hunting scenes carved into the rock walls tell the story of nomadic peoples. Visit early in the morning, when the slanting sunlight on the rock paintings is particularly stunning!
2️⃣ Ulan Buh Desert
A 1.5-hour drive from the city, you can enjoy sandboarding and camel riding. The evening sunset looks like an overturned palette, perfect for stunning photos in a red dress.
3️⃣ Yellow River Hetao Cultural Tourism Area
"The Yellow River is the only place in the world that offers riches" truly captures this area! You can also spot flocks of migratory birds during the boat tour. If you're traveling with children, don't forget to visit the cute pet park to feed the alpacas.
[Indigenous Cuisine Recommendations]
🍖 Bameng Stew: The time-honored pork ribs and noodles are a must-try! Don't forget to add a side of pickled cabbage to cut through the greasiness.
🐑 Hand-Pulled Meat: Freshly slaughtered lamb from a herder's home is incredibly fragrant when boiled in plain water. Paired with wild chive sauce, it's the ultimate in flavor.
🥟 Mongolian Steamed Buns: Thin-skinned, generously stuffed with camel meat, bursting with juice (I recommend the "Horse Herder" restaurant).
🍶 Camel Milk Wine: Light and sweet, perfect for women, it pairs perfectly with grilled lamb chops.
