2025 Xilinhot Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in February)

Mongolian Palace: This is a hotel decorated with Mongolian characteristics. It is located in Xilinhot. It is a grand introduction to the breakfast of its family. Its just a fool of our little friends. For the breakfast, the Ximen people have always It is so serious! ! ! Early in the morning, when I saw such a hard dish in front of my eyes, my stomach was awakened in minutes, and the Mongolian diet was rough, with mutton, milk, wild vegetables and pasta as the main ingredients of the restaurant, especially full. In fact, focus on raw materials. All kinds of mutton are dazzling, the meat is also very tender, a layer of skin, a layer of fat, a layer of lean meat and bones, can not help but eat a bite after eating a bit, for fear of being taken away by others! Mongolian main food, in addition to lamb, is a dairy product, milk skin, cheese, milk bars are all natural and no added, the aftertaste is particularly good, for the baby who likes to eat dairy products, thick and The unspoken pure milk scent has always been memorable.

Many people's impressions of Inner Mongolia are the green lake, the galloping horses, the vast grasslands, the flocks of cattle and sheep, and the flowers of the four wild, but in this land of Ximeng, we have experienced the hot together in addition to the vast prairie. desert. The road in the scenic area will be very bumpy. It is best to sit in the position and look after the items on the body. But when we see all kinds of cows eating on the grass, we cant help but take it. Its the real nature that shoots the camera from all angles. At first it was thought that this was just an ordinary sand land. Actually, there was no hole in the sky. Unlike the Taklimakan Desert, Hunshandak distributed many small lakes, blisters and sand springs in the sand. The spring water was from the sand. It pops out and gathers into the creek; it is not as ridiculous as the Tengger Desert. It is rich in aquatic plants and has wildlife resources, so it is also called the garden desert. This is not a lot of tourists in the niche attractions, no longer need to take a photo of the team for dozens of minutes, kneeling in the blue sky and white clouds and the prairie, so quiet, especially like this feeling. Standing at the highest point of the sand, looking at the desert yellow sand in front of you, putting down the mobile phone, forgetting the space, and healed the urban anxiety disorder by the way.

#travellerswonderland #historicallandmarks #localguides #familytrip My adventure in Xilin Gol, Inner Mongolia, was nothing short of spectacular. The trip started with the vibrant event banner for the "Xingol International Ice Dragon Boat Championship," against the backdrop of a clear blue sky, setting the scene for an exhilarating event on January 20, 2025. The excitement in the air was palpable as teams prepared for the thrilling competition. As night fell, I was enchanted by the magical display of illuminated penguin ice sculptures. Their intricate designs glowed beautifully against the night sky, showcasing the incredible craftsmanship and artistic flair of the event. It was a sight to behold, adding a touch of whimsy to the chilly evening. The journey continued with a visit to a breathtaking ice sculpture of a chariot pulled by four majestic horses. The sculpture's intricate details, from the lifelike horses to the figure standing in the chariot, were truly impressive. The white sculpture stood out brilliantly against the dark backdrop, a testament to the skill and dedication of the artists who created it. One of the most memorable moments was capturing the contrast between tradition and modernity in a snowy setting. One individual was dressed in a colorful traditional outfit with intricate patterns and a headdress adorned with beads and fur, while the other wore modern winter clothing, including a beige jacket and a yellow vest. This juxtaposition highlighted the rich cultural heritage and the dynamic evolution of Inner Mongolia. The journey culminated in exploring more of the region's cultural richness and natural beauty. From the exhilarating ice dragon boat races to the stunning ice sculptures and the vivid portrayal of tradition and modernity, my trip to Xilin Gol was an unforgettable experience that left me with a deep appreciation for the region's unique charm and vibrant spirit.

Summer vacation with kids heading north to the Pingdingshan Volcanic Geological Park in Xilinhot! Not far from the city, we stayed near the horse capital, drove over in about 20 minutes, the ticket was 20 yuan + 50 yuan for the sightseeing car. The sightseeing car takes you from the ticket office to the foot of the mountain, I timed it, it took less than seven minutes. If you don't mind the fatigue, you can also walk there yourself. Pingdingshan, as the name suggests! The top of the mountain is really flat, with a group of about ten volcanoes of various sizes, covered in green as far as the eye can see. In the vast grassland, it feels quite spectacular. Actually, the mountain tops are not high, it takes about half an hour to climb to the top! There are also a few bare mountain tops, completely without any greenery. I really wanted to go over and take some photos, that kind of wasteland style would definitely make great pictures. Unfortunately, it was inconvenient with the kids, so we just took a few photos from a distance as a memento! At the top of the mountain, it is flat and covered with stones, naturally formed. Many children were picking up volcanic stones, while we looked into the distance at the different landforms and scenery! The blue sky, white clouds, and green mountains connected together, vast and spectacular. The beautiful scenery at this moment made me sigh, it was worth the trip. The wind at the top of the mountain was strong, hair flying, clothes swaying, just like our mood at this moment: soaring!

Accidentally entering the desktop of a Windows 7 computer, this is my impression of the early autumn in the Xilingol grassland. At this time, the grassland is still wearing green clothes, horses leisurely lower their heads to chew grass, sheep lazily step in the gentle breeze, and clouds graze above the yurts. Coming to Xilingol at this time is not only to escape the high temperatures of the south but also to witness the exciting 2024 Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Mongolian Horse Super League. With the spectacular performances of the opening ceremony, the thrilling competitions are also counting down. Horse lassoing, 30-kilometer endurance race for Mongolian horses, 9-kilometer team relay race, horse archery competition... Each horse-related competition makes people feel excited. Xilingol has a profound horse culture. The blooming canola flowers in August at the Baiyin Xile Ranch seem to be a garland for this league. This Baiyin Xile Ranch, known as the 'Golden Grassland,' offers interactive activities such as horse riding and archery. You can also visit the Horse Culture Experience Hall to learn about the history of horses. Xiwuzhumuqin Banner, also known as the 'Hometown of White Horses in China,' is the best choice to experience white horses at the White Horse Cultural Park. Taipusi Banner, known as the 'Hometown of Royal Horse Culture,' has a long history of horse culture. Besides the local Mongolian horses, many famous horses from around the world can be found at the Royal Horse Garden in Taipusi Banner. If you want to experience it, you must not miss this place. You should also try the authentic Mongolian cuisine here, such as hand-grabbed meat, blood sausage, milk tea, etc. With the Mid-Autumn Festival approaching, don't miss their uniquely flavored milk skin mooncakes.

Recently, the 34th Grassland Naadam Festival of Inner Mongolia, themed 'Meet on the Grassland, Encounter Naadam,' opened in Xilin Gol League, Inner Mongolia. At the Naadam, herders brought their horses, wore wrestling attire, and held bows and arrows to showcase their skills and participate in the 'Three Manly Skills' competition. The 'Three Manly Skills' are traditional Mongolian sports, including horse racing, wrestling, and archery. These are regular events at the annual Naadam and are an important part of the daily life of the herders.

There is a super long volcanic belt in Inner Mongolia, so I encountered a group again today. Although they are also volcanoes, this volcano is different from yesterday's Wulanhada. Moreover, you can see it just by passing by on the highway, making it irresistible to stop (there are designated parking spots) to take photos. Whether viewed from afar or up close, it is equally stunning! The volcano at Pingdingshan has a visibly flat top, forming a perfect parallel line with the distant grasslands. This is not man-made; it is purely the work of nature. After learning about it, I found out that this type of landform is called a "Belik multi-step lava plateau" in geological terms. It is formed by the combined effects of river cutting and wind and rain erosion. In other words, the vast land we see today was once a vast expanse of water (possibly a sea or a large lake) a long, long time ago. After millions of years of evolution, we now have this amazing natural wonder. There is still a scientific expedition boardwalk from those years at the foot of the mountain. Visitors can now climb to the top of the volcano via newly built steps to take life-changing photos. However, there are no railings at the top, and the gravel is quite large and uneven, so don't go too far out. Just improve your and your friends' photography skills a bit, and you won't need to take risks. p.s. Honestly, there is so much of the world and knowledge that you don't know until you go out. Cherish every day of learning while you're out and about! p.p.s. The weather on the grasslands changes frequently, with rainbows appearing and disappearing quickly. It's so hard to catch them!

👋 A spontaneous trip to Xilingol League, it was truly breathtaking! 🤩 🌄 Welcoming the first ray of sunlight on the grassland In the early morning, before the sky fully brightened, we walked into the depths of the grassland with dew underfoot. The surroundings were quiet, with only occasional bird calls and distant sounds of cattle and sheep. Then, the sun slowly rose, painting the entire grassland in a layer of gold. At that moment, time seemed to stand still, leaving only the shock and emotion in our hearts. Night in Mongol Khan City, bonfire under the starry sky The night in Mongol Khan City presented a different scene. Around the bonfire, everyone sat together, sharing their stories, with a sky full of stars overhead. Staying in a yurt, listening to the sound of the wind outside, feeling the tranquility and vastness of the grassland. Ashihatu Stone Forest, nature's masterpiece The next day, Ashihatu Stone Forest, with its oddly shaped stones, made us marvel at the wonders of nature. Walking through the stone forest, every step brought new surprises. Dalinor Lake, the tranquility of water and sky Dalinor Lake was crystal clear. Sitting on a small boat, looking at the beautiful scenery where water and sky meet, it felt like all worries drifted away with the waves. Beizi Temple, feeling the power of faith On the last day, Beizi Temple, solemn and majestic, made us slow down our steps involuntarily, quietly feeling the power of faith. Huitengxile Natural Botanical Garden, a treasure trove of nature With a wide variety of plants. Walking on the path, the fresh air and the vitality of nature.

A five-star hotel on the Xilingol Grassland 1️⃣ Bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, we drove into Xilinhot City, located in the center of the grassland.

Entering the hotel lobby, the elegant and grand decoration, friendly and polite greetings, and the clean, reflective marble floor—all these details showcase the service standards and comfortable atmosphere of a star-rated hotel. 3️⃣ What’s more worth mentioning is that in the hotel lobby, you can hear the melodious sound of the traditional Mongolian morin khuur. The gentle, pleasant, and mysterious music brings a sense of freshness, comfort, and tranquility, like a clear spring that makes you feel happy, as if your soul has wandered into the vast grassland, receiving a spiritual cleansing. In the evening, we enjoyed the hotel's whole lamb and seafood-themed buffet dinner. 4️⃣ The Mongolian whole lamb ceremony, with beautiful Mongolian girls full of ritual, the crispy and fragrant outer skin, the tender and juicy lamb meat, wrapped in a small pancake covered with sauce, paired with the local rich milk tea, is truly delicious!

I have been to Beizi Temple. Beizi Temple is one of the four major temples in Inner Mongolia. Because it is an imperial temple, it has one more beast head than temples of the same level. Beizi Temple is divided into a free area and a paid area. I haven't been to the paid area. For friends who are interested in Buddhist culture, I recommend going to Beizi Temple in the morning. Go to the courtyard on the east side of the main hall, across the road, and enter through the side door. You can hear the lamas chanting. I really like going there. Although I don't understand it, listening to it makes me feel calm from the inside out. Aobao Mountain. There are many places to have fun, so I won't introduce them one by one.

📍Location: 100 meters northwest of the intersection of Beizi Temple Street and E'erdun Road, Baoligen Sub-district, Xilinhot City, Xilingol League, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. 🚗Transportation: Self-driving is recommended, with free parking available. 👍️Top Attraction: On the morning of the third day of the self-driving tour, visit Beizi Temple. As a national 4A-level tourist attraction, Beizi Temple is known as a famous temple in the north and is also one of the four major temples in Inner Mongolia, as well as the largest temple in the Xilingol League area. Founded in the eighth year of the Qianlong era of the Qing Dynasty, the temple was most prosperous with up to 1,200 lamas and is the largest temple in the Xilingol League area. In the early morning, the temple's front square is a place where locals dance and exercise. Behind Beizi Temple is the Thirteen Aobao Mountain, and upon entering, you will first see stones themed 'Meeting of Aobao'. Thirteen is regarded as the Aobao god, and Aobao is also an important carrier for Inner Mongolian sacrificial rites. 🎟️Ticket Information: 0 yuan, currently both Beizi Temple and Thirteen Aobao Mountain are open to the public for free. 💗Other tips: It takes about two hours to drive from Beizi Temple to Wulan Wutai, passing through the Jiren Gaole Tourist Center, where some dairy products are sold. We bought milk cakes for 20 yuan a box, but they were a bit too sweet for us~ There are yurts and small carts on the lawn for photo opportunities, and this place is recommended for self-driving friends as a rest stop.
