Hohhot

Hohhot is a Mongolian word which means "Green City". This city is the provincial capital of Inner Mongolia, also rich with ethnic characteristics. In Hohhot, you can visit Ih Juu Temple or Shiretu Juu to experience the cultural integration of Tibetan Buddhism with the Mongolian people. There is also an Islamic-style street that will show you the charm of another culture. Temür Urkhu on the outskirts of the city is the final resting place of Wang Zhaojun—one of ancient China's Four Great Beauties. There are wonderful song and dance performances by ethnic Mongolians that are not to be missed in Hohhot.
