📷 Photogenic Landmarks
📍 Morgele River Cliff: Shoot from a low angle! The river’s curves across the grassland are more beautiful than ribbons.
📍 Ergun Birch Forest: Shoot upward! Sunlight filtering through the leaves creates an instant forest fairy-tale vibe.
📍 Hulun Lake: Where the grassland meets the "sea"! The rippling waves hide the blue hues of Hulunbuir.
📍 Manzhouli: The entire town feels like a fairy tale, with colorful Russian-style buildings—best captured with a telephoto lens.

♥️ Immersive Experiences
・Horseback riding: Choose from dozens of horses and gallop freely across the grasslands—nothing like city riding schools.
・Reindeer: Hidden in the birch forest, the reindeer tribe lets you secretly pet their heads while feeding them moss.
・Grass sliding: A thrilling 1,300-meter slide down—I screamed the whole way!

📝 Travel Tips
① Transportation: Attractions are far apart, covering hundreds of kilometers daily. Self-driving or hiring a local driver is recommended for reliability.
② Weather: Summers are cool overall, but temperatures vary greatly between day and night—pack a light jacket.
③ Clothing: A stylish straw hat enhances photos. Wear long pants or skirts to avoid insect bites, and don’t forget sunglasses and sun-protective gear.
