Legend has it that there is a towering Nader Mountain in the nomadic land of Hilbert people. The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, filled with fog and the lake is as clear as a mirror. People say this is a secluded place for the gods. One day, a young hunter suddenly found a group of fairies playing in the lake on the top of the mountain and beside the lake. The beautiful posture and touching laughter amazed the hunter. He quietly brought a pair of belts to harness the horse and watched invisibly. The fairies chase and play as much as they like, oblivious to it. The hunter flew in with a leather rope and trapped one of the fairies. The other fairies panicked and hid in the clouds. The hunter courted the fairy and the fairy agreed. A son was born soon, and this son became the ancestor of the Daochuluo family.

Mongolian traditional national white festivals, Aobao Festival, Nadam Festival, Luban Festival and Lantern Festival. There are different customs in festivals.

After liberation, many new contents have been added, such as track and field, ball games, cultural performances, photo exhibitions, film screenings and exchange of production experience. This has become the favorite activity of the Mongolian people. Lantern Festival: Every year on October 25th of the lunar calendar, when night falls, people light butter lamps to celebrate. Today, most Mongolians in Buksaier Mongolian Autonomous County and emin county have not celebrated the Lantern Festival; In Wusu County, Mongolians don't burn lanterns on Lantern Festival, instead, they use various forms of entertainment. The White Festival is the most important festival of the Mongols, which is equivalent to our Spring Festival, and is also called "Bai Yue". Legend has it that it is related to the whiteness of milk, which means wishing good luck. The time of the festival is roughly the same as the Spring Festival. On New Year's Eve, every family eats braised pork, including jiaozi and pancakes. On the morning of the first day, the younger generation will propose a toast to their elders.

Mongolian costumes include robes, belts, boots and jewelry. However, due to different regions, there are also differences in styles. Take women's robes as an example. The Mongolians in Horqin and Harqin regions mostly wear long gowns with wide straight slits, and the neckline and cuffs are decorated with various colors. Mongolians in Xilingol grassland wear Mongolian robes with large narrow sleeves and no slits; Buryat women wear robes with waist skirts and shoulders; Women's robes in Ordos are divided into three pieces, the first one is a tight-fitting dress with sleeves reaching to the wrist, the second one is a coat with sleeves reaching to the elbow, and the third one is a collarless double-breasted vest with straight rows of flashing buttons.

Mongolian yurt is the name of Mongolian herdsmen's housing. "Treasure" means "home" and "home". In ancient times, yurts were called "vault", "felt tent" or "felt house". Mongolian yurts are round, large and small. The largest can accommodate more than 20 people to rest; Little people can also accommodate 10 people. The construction of yurts is very simple. Generally, draw a circle according to the size of the bag where the water plants are suitable. Then erect "Hannah" (made of 2.5-meter-long wicker) along the drawn circle, and then erect the "Wuni" at the top. Connect "Hannah" and "Wuni" in a circle, then put on the felt and tie it with a wool rope, and you can get it. White yurts are like Bai Lianhua blooming on the endless grassland. The biggest advantages of yurts are convenient disassembly, large indoor use area, indoor air circulation, good lighting conditions, warm in winter and cool in summer, and no fear of wind and rain, which is very suitable for herders to live and use frequently.

Mongolians have their own language and writing. Mongolian belongs to Altaic language family, which is distributed in Mongolia and Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of China. Mongolian in Mongolia belongs to Halka dialect, with a population of about1.8000. The main features of modern Mongolian language are: abundant vowels but few consonants, relatively free phonetic combination and more syllables.

In the 1940s, Mongolia adopted the new Mongolian characters based on kirill letters, which were written from top to bottom and moved from left to right.
