This time we chartered an off-road vehicle. Only the local team leader knew these unpopular routes and methods. The off-road vehicle went over the mountains and ridges, through grasslands and wetlands, and took us to explore in depth. 👉The temperature difference between day and night is large. It is quite hot during the day when the sun is out, but a bit cool at night. It is recommended to prepare a light jacket🧥 👉Be sure to wear sunscreen☀️, the ultraviolet rays in Inner Mongolia are very strong, and there is no head protection, so it is easy to get sunburned 👉Be sure to bring moisturizer 🧴 and lip balm, and apply facial mask frequently, the climate is quite dry 👉Bring toiletries, slippers, etc. Accommodation conditions are limited, and two people need to take a half-hour interval between showers 👉In Hulunbuir, you can taste Mongolian food, Russian food and Northeastern cuisine, roasted lamb legs, finger meat, hotpot mutton...especially pot tea, which is not enough to drink every day 👉You can experience the yurt🛖 and the traditional Russian wooden house with wood carving🏠
