Travel Guide from Taiyuan to Fengning Bashang Grassland

Fengbashang Grassland is known as the first grassland in northern Beijing. It has a very large geographical area, high altitude, and unique climate, making it suitable for living. If you start from Taiyuan, the distance is still quite far, so you need to choose a good route. Below is a detailed guide from Taiyuan to Fengning Bashang Grassland.

From Shanxi to Fengning Bashang Grassland? Fengbashang Grassland is very close to Beijing, and the vast grassland stretches as far as the eye can see. You can experience the poetic beauty of cattle and sheep in the wind blown grassland here, and you can also taste the flavor of roasted whole lamb here. Many people often travel by car during their holidays, and this is a very suitable place for self-driving travel.

The driver on the Nimba grassland is very comfortable, and it is not very hot even in summer. There will be a lot of horse riding activities in winter, and you can also drink mare's milk on the grassland and do other grassland winter activities. You can go in any season, but if you are afraid of the cold, it is best not to go to the grassland in mid-winter. In addition, the peak season of the grassland is in summer, and there will be many people on the grassland at this time. If you don’t like crowded people, don’t choose this time to pass. When there are many people on Fengning Bashang, consumption will increase.

In addition, there are many high mountains around Fengning Dam, you can walk nearby and enjoy the wonders. Sometimes surrounding clouds surround these high mountains. As you drive closer and closer, you will have the illusion that you are getting closer and closer to these clouds, as if you can touch them.

In Fengning Bashang Grassland, we recommend two accommodation options. If you want convenience and speed, you can stay in a hotel. If you want to experience local characteristics, you can choose courtyard accommodation such as farmhouses. Of course, the price will be different between the two.

In the evening, there are often many activities. For example, there will be many lanterns hung in the yurt at night, and there will be a bonfire, barbecue or roasted whole sheep. A group of people would get together and have a great time. If you are a family, you can also pack a yurt or set up a tent to experience the fun of camping.

There are three routes from Taiyuan to Fengning, but I don’t remember the specific routes. Probably, a Taiyuan-Datong road goes north to Zhangjiakou, and goes east along the dam to Fengning Bashang Grassland;

There is also a road from Chicheng to Fengning from Datong to Northeast China; and then from Huairou, Beijing To the north of Fengning. If time permits, I think it would be better to go from Huairou, Beijing. There are many scenic spots along the way, starting from Huairou: Yanxi Lake, Mutianyu Great Wall, Qinglong Gorge, Happy Valley and so on.

After arriving in Fengning, we mainly visited the Bashang Grassland and Lama Mountain, as well as the most extraordinary pine in the world, the Jiulong Pine; first we saw the Jiulong Pine, then the Lama Mountain, and then the Bashang Grassland; we looked back during the period. Not far away either.

Go east from Bashang to Mulan Paddock and Saihanba National Forest Park, then to Chengde to see the Summer Resort and the Eight Outer Temples, then return from Beijing.

In fact, Chengde only needs to visit the Summer Resort, the Great Buddha Temple, the Potala Palace (like Tibet, only smaller) and the Twin Pagodas Temple.

One day in Fengning, one day in Saihanba Mulan Paddock, two days in Chengde, and one day in Yanxi Lake and Qinglong Gorge.

If you only go to Fengning Dam, you can go from Jiulong Pine (the only way) in Fengning, Datong to Lama Mountain. After seeing these two attractions, you can stay at Bashang Grassland at night and see the grassland all day the next day. I know Feng better. I was a soldier there for 20 years.
