What should I pay attention to when traveling to Inner Mongolia in August? What are the essentials?

The drinking water in Inner Mongolia grassland has a high alkali content, so tourists should prepare some mineral water. At the same time, don't eat vendors at will. The weather in Inner Mongolia is dry, please drink more water and eat more fruits to prevent getting angry. The water in Inner Mongolia has high alkali content and hard water quality. Please don't drink raw water to prevent gastroenteritis.

* Love animals. If you meet cattle on the grassland, cars and pedestrians should detour and don't pass through the cattle, otherwise it will be considered as disrespect for the owner;

* Visitors who take a bus to the herdsmen's home should see if there is a horse tied to Lele's car near the yurt, and don't rush in, lest the horse break the reins and run away. Enter the bag from the left side of the stove and sit on the west and north sides of the yurt, with the owner's living room on the east side. Try not to sit. When sitting, don't block the Buddha statue hanging on Hana in the north. You can sit on the floor without taking off your shoes after entering the bag. Don't sit on the threshold;

* When visiting a herdsman's house, the host will first serve the guest a bowl of milk tea. Guests should get up slightly and pick it up with their hands or right hands. Never pick it up with your left hand, or it will be considered impolite. When the host pours tea, if the guest doesn't want tea, please gently touch the spoon or spout with the edge of the bowl, and the host will immediately understand the guest's intention;

Inner Mongolia generally belongs to semi-arid and semi-humid temperate monsoon climate, and summer is the best season to travel to Inner Mongolia, but the longitude span of the whole region is large, and there are certain differences between the east and the west. Considering this difference, we should choose different seasons for different destinations;

* When visiting herdsmen's homes, you should bring appropriate gifts, such as wine, sugar and snacks. You can only reprimand a barking sheepdog, but you can't beat it. To relieve yourself, you must go far to the south of the yurt, not to the east, west (with sheepfolds) or north (the smell will blow into the bag with the wind). Don't trample on the north and west of Bao Bei in winter, because the snow there is eaten by water. When you leave the host's home, you must say goodbye and thank you;

* Be sure to ask the price when riding on the grassland. Some tourists are dragged away by the local people as soon as they arrive in the grassland. The local people have agreed on the 40 yuan/hour fee, but the local people will drag the tourists around and then return to the starting point. Anyway, it will take two or three hours, and the other party will have to pay for the horse. You can't get it without a few hundred dollars. Therefore, if you want to ride a horse, ask the price first and then talk about the route;

* Inner Mongolia has long tourist routes, scattered scenic spots, long ride time and hard work, so it needs to be equipped with motion sickness drugs. Please drink more water and eat more fruits and vegetables during the trip. Don't act alone, don't take informal means of transportation such as rickshaws and motorcycles easily;

* The grasslands in Inner Mongolia are endless and there is nothing. Driving and cycling should be carried out within the prescribed scope to avoid getting lost and destroying the grassland; It's difficult to tell the direction of activities at night, so you must be accompanied by local people, and it's best to bring a flashlight.

Basic elements:

Inner Mongolia is located in the plateau, with long sunshine time and strong sunlight. You must prepare sun hats, sunglasses and sunscreen.

The air in Inner Mongolia is dry, so you can prepare skin cream and lipstick, drink more water and eat more fruits.

The temperature difference between day and night in Inner Mongolia grassland is large, and the weather changes greatly. Even in midsummer, it is cold in the morning and evening. Please prepare some clothes to keep out the cold and rain.

If you want to ride on the grassland, please prepare gloves and sneakers.

When riding a horse in the grassland or camel in the desert, you should obey the arrangement and command of the staff in the scenic spot, pay attention to safety and prevent accidents; And when riding a horse or camel, don't carry cameras, video cameras and other valuables with you, so as not to lose, break or be damaged by sandstorms.

I ate Mongolian food in the grassland scenic spot. If you are not used to eating mutton, don't worry, there are other meals, and you can also bring some foods you like.

Mongolian people are hospitable. Toast with Hada and a silver bowl is the highest welcome etiquette of Mongolian people to distinguished guests, but they will not be forced to drink it all at once. If you are not suitable for drinking, please accept the silver bowl as a symbol of courtesy and respect.

It is best to prepare some drugs to prevent accidents, such as reducing fire, stopping diarrhea, preventing colds and anti-inflammatory drugs.

In addition, Ordos is the hometown of Mongols, and their living habits are very different from those of us Han people. We must do as the Romans do and respect their customs and taboos.
