During the Qing Dynasty, Ulan Butung was part of the Mulan Hunting Grounds. Because this is the site where Emperor Kangxi took command of the Qing army in the battle where Galdan Boshugtu Khan was killed, and even more so because of the beautiful European-style pastoral scenery, this has become a renown filming site for movies and television, famous both within China and overseas. The scenery here is graceful and beautiful. There are grasslands, mountains, rivers, dense forests, ancient battlefields and other ancient relics of war. This site contains both the elegant and graceful femininity of the South as well as the masculine strength and vitality of the North.

Huamugou National Forest Park

The total area of Huamugou National Forest Park in Keshiketeng Banner, Inner Mongolia is 41,858 hectares. It is located in the Saihanba area on the eastern section of the Yanshan Mountains and the northern edge of the Qilaotu Mountains. It is well-known throughout the country for its rich grassland landscape on the Bashang grassland. It is known as the pearl of Bashang and a natural oxygen bar! The park integrates mountains, hills, plateaus, sandy land, forests and grasslands, and integrates meadow jungles, grassland lakes, characteristic scenic forests, wild animals, seasonal phases, and natural landscapes in one place. It can be called a tourist attraction. In spring, azaleas, primroses, irises, etc. bloom in competition; in summer, the sun is covered by dense shade, and natural wild fruits hang on the branches, which are refreshing to taste; in autumn, the Attraction is colorful and the forests are dyed; in winter, it is covered with snow, and the rime and snow birch are covered in silver, and the trees are jade-like. Looking far away, the white birch trees all over the mountains are like graceful girls, swaying in the luxuriance of summer, the splendor of autumn, and the purity of winter. How can one not admire the beauty? The occasional bird calls and deer calls attract the curious. In the depths of the jungle, wild animals such as Northeast Red Deer and Roe Deer appear from time to time. It is not difficult to imagine what a mysterious and harmonious scenery it is. Due to its unique geographical structure and cultural environment, Huamugou National Forest Park is beautiful all year round, especially in autumn and winter. In summer, Huamugou National Forest Park is a resort for cooling off and escaping the heat. The forests are lush and cool, and the summer is as cool as spring. Birds are singing and dancing. In autumn, Huamugou National Forest Park has high skies, blue waters, light winds, and colorful forests. The beauty of Huamugou National Forest Park lies in the word "natural". The village is not big and is hidden in the ditch. If you don't stop your car, you will hardly find it even if you drive by the village. The slope is not steep, but there are gullies and ravines. There are patches of white birch trees on the top of the mountain, irregular terraces on the hillside, and old elm trees with graceful postures in groups of three or two at the foot of the mountain. In the gaps between the trees are sheep folds and cattle pens surrounded by magnolias, which are either circular or rectangular. There is no unified planning, no deliberate arrangement, and no guidance from any artist. Everything is so natural, and everything conforms to the aesthetic norms of staggered heights, sparse and dense interlacing, and the combination of crooked and straight. On the green grassland like the sea, under the clear blue sky, accompanied by the cheerful horse-head fiddle and long pastoral songs, enjoying the pure air of the natural oxygen bar with the fragrance of green grass, isn't this the pure land that you have been dreaming about and the feeling you want to get back?

Dada Line

Dada Line is a scenic grassland highway located in Hexigten Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia. It spans approx. 135 km, starting at Dali Lake (which means "lake like the sea" in Mongolian) and ending at the Arshihaty Stone Forest at the southern end of the Greater Khingan Mountains, connecting lake scenery at one end and the stone forest at the other. The route encapsulates typical elements of Inner Mongolia's scenery: when crossing the Gongger Prairie, herds of cattle, sheep, and horses are scattered across the grassland, winding rivers reflect the blue sky and white clouds, and the road seems to stretch endlessly toward the horizon; passing through the Baiyin Aobao Scenic Area, the roadside changes to vast stretches of primitive sandy spruce forests. This type of spruce rooted in sandy soil is rare worldwide, and the lush green forest belt forms a sharp contrast with the open grassland, which is also what distinguishes this route from ordinary grassland highways.

4.0/5

Rehuitang Town is located in the northeastern part of Hexigten Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, approx. 30 km from Jingpeng Town, the seat of the banner government. It is a small town beyond the Great Wall that flourished due to its hot springs. The hot springs in the town have been developed and used for over 400 years. The spring water gushes from deep underground rock minerals, with temperatures consistently between 48°C–83°C. It is rich in various minerals and trace elements such as lithium and strontium. This area is also the Hot Spring Park of the Hexigten Global Geopark. The fame of the hot springs dates back a long time. According to records, Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty both made special trips here to bathe. Legend has it that after the Battle of Ulan Butong during the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi also bathed here, and the "Kangxi Bathing Well" site remains in the town to this day. Later, when the 9th Panchen Lama visited Jingpeng, he also left behind the "Panchen Bathing Well" here. Today, most hotels in the town are connected to the hot spring pipelines, allowing guests to soak in the springs at any time. To the north of the town lies Huanggangliang National Forest Park. The "Re-A Line," a self-drive prairie route, starts here, passing through forest areas and pastures before reaching the Arshihaty Stone Forest. Attractions such as Gongger Prairie and Dali Lake are also within a 100 km radius, and many tourists use this place as a stopover and transfer point when touring Hexigten. The Jitong Railway passes through the town, with the Galadestai Station located here. This section of the railway, known for its steep climbs and interconnected bridges and tunnels, was once famous for its steam locomotives, attracting photography enthusiasts from all over the world. After winter arrives, the hot spring water flows into the Wuliang Sutai River south of the town. The river surface does not freeze in winter, and the water vapor creates a misty atmosphere. Soaking in the hot springs and then viewing the mist-covered valley is a unique winter experience in the town.

What travellers say about Hexigten Banner

M43***8711 October 2026

5.0

This grassland is highly recommended. We visited in autumn, and although it wasn't as golden, it's still worth a second visit. The grassland in spring is much greener, stretching as far as the eye can see like an oasis. While the birch forests are beautiful from afar, up close they're covered in horse manure—black and polluting, making the grassland smell and the experience unpleasant for tourists, completely masking the earthy aroma. We suggest that the horse owners pick up the manure to give tourists a better impression. Overall, it's a very beautiful environment and worth visiting. Be prepared for the cold; it gets just as cold, or even colder, at night.
