specialty

roast leg of lamb

roast leg of lamb is a famous dish for Hulunbei to entertain guests. Roast leg of lamb evolved from roast whole sheep. According to legend, hunting and nomadic peoples living on the vast land in northern China often bake whole prey and eat whole sheep by bonfires. People gradually found that the best part of the whole sheep is the hind leg of the sheep, so they often cut off the hind leg of the sheep and bake it. Roasting sheep's hind legs alone is not only faster than roasting whole sheep, but also more delicious and convenient to eat. Roasting sheep's legs gradually replaced roasting whole sheep. After a long period of development, various ingredients and condiments were gradually added in the roast process of lamb leg, which made it integrate shape, color, taste and freshness, beautiful in color, fragrant in meat, tender in interior, dry and crisp but not greasy, and was praised as "the smell is already fragrant without seeing it".

Europeans' "Oriental Myth"-Yuanshangdu

More than 7 years ago, Mongolian aristocrats established a capital on the prairie, which was the later capital of the Yuan Dynasty-Yuanshangdu. After several expansions, Yuanshangdu gradually became the political, economic, military and cultural center of China and even the world at that time.

Every year from early summer to late autumn, the emperors of Yuan Dynasty come here to cool off, hunt and handle government affairs, and the envoys, princes, ministers and businessmen who come to pilgrimage gather here, making it an international metropolis that affects Asia and Europe. Kyle Poirot and his son were summoned by Kublai Khan here.

it is recorded in Marco Polo's Travels that "all the capitals are built by Kublai Khan, and palaces made of marble and various beautiful stones are exquisitely designed and luxuriously decorated, which is amazing. All the halls and rooms in the palace are plated with gold and richly decorated. " Therefore, Shangdu in Yuan Dynasty was called "Oriental Myth" by Europeans.

The Chinese culture in the Central Plains and the Mongolian culture in the North are perfectly combined here. The capital designed by the Han people has reasonable layout, excellent site selection and reasonable garrison design. An expert who specializes in studying the ruins of Shangdu in Yuan Dynasty said that it not only embodies the traditional urban layout concept of Han nationality, but also considers the characteristics of Mongolian nomadic life, so it is a grassland city with nomadic cultural characteristics.

While attracting many tourists to watch it, it has also become a rare scientific research material for studying the changes of paleogeology and paleogeomorphology.

People here say that they can often see wild roe deer, antelope, deer and wolves now, because there are few people and a large forest area.
