⏩ Travel Guide: Three Days and Two Nights Itinerary
🔵 Day 1: Arrive in Ulanqab and rent a car to visit the Ulanhada Volcano 🌋 Geological Park. Suggested itinerary:
1⃣ Visit Volcano No. 3—known as the "Northern Alchemy Furnace." It has wooden walkways leading to the summit, making it an easy climb. Walk around the top to enjoy breathtaking views. After descending, stop by the red telephone booth for some Instagram-worthy photos 📸.
2⃣ Head to Volcano No. 6—called the "Southern Alchemy Furnace" or "Black Mountain." It's the best spot for photos in astronaut suits.
3⃣ Take pictures on the scenic road in front of Volcano No. 6 (with Volcanoes No. 5 and No. 6 as the backdrop—very picturesque).
4⃣ Visit Volcano No. 5—known as the "Central Alchemy Furnace." It's the most well-preserved volcano, and the summit is the best place to watch the sunset (from 7:30 PM to 8:20 PM).
5⃣ In the evening, camp at the foot of the volcano (contact me for details). Under the starry night sky 🌃, enjoy beer, barbecue, bonfires, and fireworks 🎆 with friends, escaping the hustle and bustle of city life and experiencing a unique exotic vibe.
🟠 Day 2: Start the day by watching the sunrise 🌄 at Volcano No. 3. Then, head to Naomugensumu Red Mountain ⛰️, which is about a four-hour drive. Along the way, admire the grassland and desert scenery, take photos on the scenic road, and traverse the wilderness. Once you reach Red Mountain, you can drive to the summit. Explore and take photos 📸 at every turn—the endless red mountain terrain is truly stunning. Drone enthusiasts can capture amazing aerial shots in the first and second canyons, where signal strength is excellent. In the afternoon, return to the beautiful grasslands as the sunset 🌇 paints the sky. Spend the night in a Mongolian yurt 🏕, enjoying drinks and meat while immersing yourself in Mongolian 🇲🇳 culture.
🟢 Day 3: In the morning, experience the thrill of horseback riding 🐎. Visit the Huitengxile Grassland Huanghuagou Scenic Area, ride the grassland train 🚊 to enjoy the scenery, and return to the city in the afternoon.
🔶 Clothing Tips: The temperature difference between morning and evening is significant, so bring long pants, windbreakers 🧥, or thicker jackets. For photos, wear white or bright-colored clothes—orange is particularly photogenic.
🔷 Travel Essentials: Sunscreen, skincare products, makeup, power banks, motion sickness medicine, and digestive medicine.
