Chunkun Mountain - The sound of your horse's hooves.
The sound of your horse's hooves
Is like a cloud
Sweeping across the boundless grassland
And I am in hot pursuit
Silently counting the obo
Three thousand three hundred circles
The horse's hooves have no direction
Just as I have never set off
I went to Chunkun Mountain in August, and the weather was very cool. I had to wear a thin coat on the mountain, otherwise, I would risk catching a cold in the mountain wind.
Most of the people who come to play are locals from Baotou. They drive over, bring some picnic snacks, and sit on the grassland, which is very leisurely and comfortable.
The publicity says it is "Altay in Inner Mongolia". Since the broadcast of "My Altay", Altay seems to have become an adjective, and it quickly defeated "Northern Europe" and "Hokkaido". Whether it is a good thing or not, it can only be said that it depends on the person.
You can ride a horse in the scenic area, but it is simple. Someone leads the horse around for a walk. Don't even think about galloping, there is no trotting, so don't hold too high hopes, but it is quite handsome to take pictures.
If you don't have a car, you can join a one-day tour of Chunkun Mountain and Wudangzhao. It costs more than 100 yuan per person, which is equivalent to hiring a driver.
Green fairy tale world
Yesterday I saw the word-of-mouth list about Baotou, Inner Mongolia on Ctrip, so disappointed... There is no Chun Kun Mountain!! I slid all the way down, but I couldn't find Chun Kun Mountain, so I decided to tell everyone about the alpine meadow grassland in Baotou, Inner Mongolia-Chun Kun Mountain
📍Detailed address:
Chun Kun Mountain is located in Guyang County, just navigate directly to Chun Kun Mountain. This is the first time I have really seen the grassland! To be honest, when I went there for the first time, I only had one sentence all the way, wow, it's so beautiful! Wow, it's so beautiful!
⏳Play time:
The tourist season in Inner Mongolia is very short, July, August, and September, so when you go to Inner Mongolia, you must understand when the grass is green. We went in August, which is the peak season. The parking lot is full and can only be parked on the roadside outside the scenic area. When we were about to go up, a sister told us to wear more clothes. The wind on the mountain is very big and it will be very cold! They are locals and come to Chun Kun Mountain once a year. In August, for me, a southerner, I really don't believe it will feel cold in August , but I didn't prepare any thicker clothes, so I still went up the mountain in shorts and short sleeves
🌟Highlights:
After buying the ticket and taking the car up the mountain, all I saw along the way was green, which was really wow. When I got to the top of the mountain, I got off the car directly, and then no one cared about you. You just walked slowly by yourself, slowly feeling the space between you and the green grassland, which was really wow. You can look at my photos, which are really wow. This is the first time I have seen the endless mountains all covered with green grass, which is really wow. Blue sky and white clouds + green grasslands in sight, super invincible out of the picture, too wow!
🧳Preparation before departure:
You must prepare more jackets, the wind on the mountain is really big, but at the same time the sun is also very strong, so you must do a good job of sun protection, both of us got sunburned
❤Recommended reason:
It's really beautiful, it's simply pure oxygen, it belongs to the alpine meadow grassland, no matter how you look at it, it's a beautiful grassland, I recommend it by real name!
