Inner Mongolia's secret tour: 2k per person to enjoy Baotou

Volcanic grasslands and Tibetan Buddhist sacred sites—every photo is a masterpiece! 📸

🌋Day 1: Ulan Hada Volcanic Geological Park
📍Address: West of the Erguang Expressway, Chahar Right Rear Banner, Ulanqab City
⏰Opening Hours: 7:30 AM - 8:00 PM (Tickets stop at 5:00 PM)
✨Tips:
1⃣️ Volcano 3 is perfect for taking spacesuit photos! The dark red mountain has a Martian feel. 👩🚀
2⃣️ Volcano 5 is perfect for camping and stargazing; remember to bring a tripod to capture the Milky Way.
3⃣️ Wear bright colors! Orange and red colors stand out against the black volcanic rocks.
⚠️ Wear sunscreen! The UV rays on the grassland are incredibly strong, so I had to reapply my sunscreen spray three times.

🛏️ Stayed at the Chi Le Ju Hotel that night.
📍No. 51 Minzhu Road (only a 10-minute walk to the Saikhantala Grassland!)
💯Amazing hotel with a panoramic view of the grasslands in the city from the room. 🌿The staff were super enthusiastic and recommended tons of local delicacies!

🕌Day 2: Wudangzhao
📍Jihuluntu Sumu, Shiguai District, Baotou City
🎫Admission: 54 yuan
⏰Opening Hours: 8:30 AM - 5:45 PM (April-October)
✨Tips:
1⃣️The "Little Potala Palace" lives up to its name! The white buildings against the blue sky are stunning.
2⃣️ Remember to turn the prayer wheels clockwise; the prayer flags at the entrance are a fantastic photo opportunity.
3⃣️ It's recommended to visit in the morning; the sunlight filtering through the prayer hall is truly divine.

🛍️ Explore the Qingshan Wanda Plaza in the afternoon.
Great for food and drinks~ I recommend trying the Mongolian milk tea and hand-pulled pork on the third floor. 🥩

🍖Food Recommendations:
1⃣️ Chi Le Chuan Mongolian Restaurant (Minzhu Road Branch): The ice-cooked lamb is absolutely amazing!
2⃣️ Saikhantala Grassland BBQ: Enjoy barbecue in a Mongolian yurt and watch the sunset in the evening. 🌅

🚗Transportation Tips:
1⃣️ It's recommended to rent a car or drive to the Volcano Park; public transportation is not very convenient.
2⃣️ Taxis are very affordable within Baotou city attractions, starting at only 6 yuan.
