[2025 Old Barag Banner Attraction] Travel Guide for The Mergel River (Updated Jun)

Friends, Hulunbuir in the coming months is like a summer straight out of a Miyazaki film! I solemnly declare that no place on earth understands the romance and beauty of summer better than Inner Mongolia. Imagine a sapphire-blue sky dotted with large, marshmallow-like clouds, drifting freely across the boundless expanse like celestial spirits. On the vast grasslands below, herds of cattle and sheep resemble black and white pearls scattered across a green velvet carpet. Every snapshot you take while strolling through this landscape is a desktop wallpaper waiting to happen, a balm for the weary soul. You'll feel like you've stepped into a Miyazaki movie, a world of fantasy and warmth, where every scene exudes a dreamlike quality. This dreamlike grassland, to me, is like Li Juan's "My Altay," a poetic land full of the unknown and wonder. Here are some must-visit spots in Hulunbuir: First and foremost, the Xini River Grassland, a natural pasture in Inner Mongolia. Here, you'll witness endless grasslands, with green waves undulating in the wind like a verdant symphony composed by nature. Immerse yourself in the unique charm of nomadic culture, watch herders on horseback expertly managing their livestock, and listen to their tales of the grasslands, connecting with the rich history and cultural heritage of this land. Hulun Lake is another must-see. In summer, its mild and cool climate makes it the perfect summer retreat. Standing by the lake, you'll see the shimmering waters blend seamlessly with the distant blue sky and grasslands, creating a breathtaking panorama. Occasionally, water birds frolic on the lake's surface, adding a touch of vitality to the tranquil scene. Enhe Russian Ethnic Township is like a colorful fairy tale. As you ride through the birch forests, sunlight filters through the leaves, creating dappled patterns of gold. Traverse the grasslands, cross the hills, and watch as the setting sun paints the world in hues of orange and red, immersing you in a picturesque masterpiece. Manzhouli has its own unique charm, with its Russian-style architecture and candy-colored buildings, vibrant and lively. Walking down the streets of Manzhouli is like stepping into a dreamlike fairy tale, where every building seems to have sprung from the pages of a storybook, begging to be photographed. The meandering Moergele River resembles a silver river inlaid in the grassland. Its waters flow gently across the land, tracing beautiful patterns, a masterpiece painted by nature's magical brush. From a high vantage point, the river's winding course resembles a ribbon dancing across the grassland, a sight of breathtaking beauty. A trip to Hulunbuir wouldn't be complete without savoring the local cuisine. Roasted whole lamb, a centuries-old nomadic tradition, is a must-try. When a golden-brown, crispy roasted lamb is served, its enticing aroma fills the air, making your mouth water. One bite of the tender, flavorful meat is an unforgettable experience. Don't miss the milk tea with roasted millet. The crispy, golden millet adds a unique texture and flavor to the rich milk tea, creating a delightful combination. Beyond the scenery and food, Hulunbuir offers a wealth of immersive experiences. Try grass sliding from a 1200m slope. Feel the wind rush past as you speed down, a perfect blend of speed and excitement, leaving all your worries behind. Visit a private ranch, don traditional attire, and experience life as a herder. Hand-feed adorable lambs, watch them take food from your hand with their wet little mouths, milk cows, and brew milk tea, immersing yourself in authentic grassland life. Camping on the grassland is an unforgettable experience. Lie in your tent at night, listening to the sounds of insects, and gaze up at the brilliant starry sky. The stars, like gems embedded in the black curtain of night, reveal the vastness and mystery of the universe. Enjoy a delicious barbecue with friends under the stars. Experience a stay in a yurt, a traditional Mongolian dwelling, and immerse yourself in the unique nomadic culture. The yurt's warm and ethnic interior makes you feel one with the grassland. Matryoshka Square, a veritable Eastern Disneyland, is a children's paradise. The various Matryoshka-themed buildings and amusement facilities transport children to a fairy-tale kingdom of fun and laughter. Finally, go horseback riding across the grassland with a guide. Feel the wind in your hair as your horse gallops across the plains, channeling the spirit of ancient warriors and experiencing the unique thrill of horseback riding. A few tips for your trip: Hulunbuir experiences significant temperature differences between day and night in early summer, so pack a jacket or windbreaker to avoid catching a cold. Cell phone signals can be unreliable in some areas, so carry cash. The grassland enjoys abundant sunshine, but the UV rays are strong, so take sun protection measures. Mosquitoes are common in summer, so bring mosquito repellent. Most importantly, respect local customs, be mindful of cultural differences, and protect the natural and cultural environment of the grassland to preserve its pristine beauty.

To chase the golden autumn Hulunbuir is a very temporary decision The most important thing about coming to Hulunbuir is that as a person who grew up in the south, and whose activity radius is around Jiangxi, my understanding of golden autumn only exists in texts and various literary works. But in the end I decided to come to Hulunbuir because of the Ergun River on the route. Chi Zijian's "Right Bank of the Ergun River" talks about the cycle of life and its cessation. The story of Ukelengli, the life of reindeer, the mysterious shaman, the Evenki people walking down the mountain... On the way, we also saw the Morgele River described by Lao She. The Morgler River flows quietly and calmly... Beside these two rivers, I was thinking that the passage of life is like a rushing river, with twists and turns but no turning back. A few years ago, they gave birth to countless lives, and they also witnessed the passing of countless lives. Today we stand beside them, and eventually... they will rush forward and watch us pass away... I went to see the reindeer and chatted with the man in charge of recreation and breeding at the reindeer park. When I was leaving, the man said: Girl, even if you speak Mandarin and you don’t say you are a southern girl, I wouldn’t even think you are from the south. She is gentle, speaks softly, and has an open personality, so she is very attractive to people. In Ergun, I seem to be more able to feel the shock of nature, the weight of life, and people's enthusiasm for life.

🚗【Traffic Pitfall Guide】 ⚠️Bloody Lesson: Avoid Green-Panel Trains! ▫️Fly directly to "Hailar Dongshan Airport" and rent a car upon arrival (search "Prairie God Car"—Tank 300 for just 300+ RMB/day) ▫️Must-haves for road trips: Offline maps + mosquito nets (deep in the prairie, even cell signals are eaten by livestock) 💡Hidden gem: Hire a local guide for off-road adventures (regular GPS won’t find these paths!) 🧳【Packing Tips】 ✅Survival kit: ▫️SPF50+ sunscreen (UV rays here cast color-graded shadows) ▫️Military-grade bug spray (prairie mosquitoes bite through jeans😭) ▫️3-in-1 windbreaker (scorching days vs. freezing nights) ❌Skip these scams: ▫️Fairy dresses (grass seeds + horse poop = instant regret) ▫️Extra DSLR batteries (I brought three and drained them all) 📸Photo hacks: ▫️White boho dress + cowboy boots (add a hat for shepherdess vibes) ▫️Drones limited to 120m—capture sheep migrations like adorable ant parades 🌄【Attraction Truths】 1️⃣ Morigele River ❌First viewpoint? Tour buses galore with wonky angles ✅Navigate to "Xibori Aobao" for cliffside river bends (sunset sheep crossings are magical) 2️⃣ Hulun Lake ❌"Tie-Up Horse Post" looks dull—online pics are filter-heavy ✅Sunset at 19:00 turns water champagne gold (bring a telephoto lens) 3️⃣ Ergun Wetland ❌"Instagram swing"? Just a plank tied to a tree ✅ATV through mud = prairie badge of honor (discount tickets online) 4️⃣ Windmill Ranch ❌Windmills and fences photoshopped together ✅Morning sheep fences at Morigele, afternoon giant windmills in Manzhouli (200km apart—brace yourself) 5️⃣ Wildflower Valley ❌Don’t DIY—we got chased by Tibetan mastiffs! ✅Let guides take you to "Enhe North Mountain" for endless June peonies 🗺️【5-Day Itinerary】 D1: Hailar → Prairie heartland → Morigele cliffs → Stargazing in yurts D2: Ergun → Wildflower Valley → ATV splashdown → Sunset at Linjiang Village D3: Shiwei → Border highway → Black Mountain horseback sunset (licensed ranches only!) D4: 186 Colorful River grass sliding → Hulun Lake "tangerine sea" sunset → Manzhouli night walk D5: Posing at Matryoshka Square → Mammoth Park’s Russian castles → Editing 2000+ photos 🍖【Food Radar】 🔥Must-eats: ▫️Nuomin Tara Milk Tea House: Boiled milk tea + Buryat buns (add roasted rice and milk skin) ▫️Lubri Russian Restaurant: Cheese buns with 1-meter-long pulls! ▫️Ziyu Restaurant: Tea-infused lamb ribs worth licking fingers for 💣Avoid: ❌Scenic-area roasted lamb (often frozen—visit herder camps for fresh kills) ❌Dairy stalls (mostly wholesale goods—buy from Chenqi herders) 💡【Survival Tips】 1️⃣ Don’t pet roadside lambs—20 RMB per touch 2️⃣ No drones on border roads (soldiers will "invite" you for tea) 3️⃣ Carry cash—remote gas stations don’t take cards 4️⃣ Buy matryoshka dolls at "Dashan Russian Goods"—half-price and negotiable Standing on Black Mountain watching the last sun dip below the prairie, I finally understood why Mongols say: "Our land has no fences, only wind-woven hedges." All filter-induced regrets Are healed by this boundless wilderness🌾
