How about Hulunbeier tourism?

When it comes to the largest city in China, you may think of Chongqing for the first time. But the area of Chongqing is only the largest among the municipalities directly under the central government. If the scope is extended to all cities in China, the largest jurisdiction area is Hulunbeier, a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

I think most people's impression of Hulunbeier comes from those affectionate Mongolian folk songs. The vast Hulunbeier grassland has nurtured simple and kind grassland people, and Hulunbeier City was established here relying on the rich grassland.

Hulunbeier, named after Hulun Lake and Bell Lake, is a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Located at the junction of China, Russia and Mongolia, it has a long border of 1700 kilometers with Russia and Mongolia respectively.

The outstanding feature of Hulunbeier is that it is the largest city in China with a total area of 262,000 square kilometers. What is this concept?

Its area is equivalent to the total area of Shandong Province and Jiangsu Province. It is equivalent to 16 Beijing, 4 1 Shanghai, 35 Guangzhou and 6,880 Macau, which is 1.5 times the area of Guangdong Province and larger than two Zhejiang provinces. So you can imagine how big the city is.

Although the area is large, it is not suitable for human habitation because of the harsh geographical environment. In such a large area, only 2.52 million people live. If you want to have a very intuitive feeling that Hulunbeier is vast and sparsely populated, then go to Hulunbeier and drive for 2 hours, but you can't see anyone.

Hulunbeier is not only the largest prefecture-level city in China, but also the most proud beautiful scenery. Hulunbeier grassland is one of the four largest grasslands in the world and is also known as the best grassland in the world. Here, there are abundant aquatic plants, cattle and sheep everywhere, blue sky and white clouds everywhere, as well as roast whole sheep feast, hand-grabbed mutton, milk tea and other foods, which are what foodies are most looking forward to. The best time to travel to Hulunbeier is from May to September every year, which is the most vibrant time on the grassland. In July and August, during the Nadam convention.

Nadam, which begins on the fourth day of the sixth lunar month every year, is a grand gathering of Mongolian people. There are thrilling horse racing, wrestling, admirable archery, competitive chess and fascinating songs and dances at the Nadam convention. But the winter in Hulunbeier is very cold, which can be said to be a real northland scenery.
