Where is the largest grassland in China?

The largest grassland in China is Xilin Gol Prairie!

Xilingol prairie covers an area of197,300 square kilometers, which is the largest grassland in China and a veritable vast grassland. Therefore, the slogan of Xilin Gol Prairie is: Only the vast grassland has a thousand miles of scenic avenues!

When it comes to the largest grassland in China, many people will think of Hulunbeier. In fact, this is a big misunderstanding. We should know that Xilin Gol grassland is almost twice as big as Hulunbeier grassland, and the area of Hulunbeier grassland is only 1 1.2 million square kilometers, while Xilin Gol grassland is 1.97 million square kilometers.

It is mainly the low-key of Xilin Gol prairie that has caused misunderstanding, but it is this low-key that makes Xilin Gol prairie not over-commercially developed and become the last pure land of Chinese grassland!

Xilingol prairie is located in the central and eastern Inner Mongolia, just north of Beijing, and it is the closest natural grassland pastoral area to the capital Beijing. In 2005, it was selected as "the most beautiful grassland in China" by chinese national geography, and 20 10 was awarded the title of "Madu, China" by China Horse Industry Association. It is also the only national grassland nature reserve listed by UNESCO in the international biosphere monitoring system.

The song "Beautiful Grassland My Home" depicts the beautiful scenery of Xilin Gol prairie and the scene of grassland galloping. It's a song composed by Mr. Howard who went to Xilin Gol for a meeting on 1975, deeply experienced grassland life and recalled the past two years later.

Xilingol prairie is the birthplace of Mongolian and Yuan culture, and the grassland capital, Yuanshangdu, is located on this grassland, and still retains traditional nomadic tribes.

The best travel time of Xilin Gol prairie is from June to August every year. When the summer heat in the city is unbearable, the cool weather in Xilin Gol prairie is 18, with endless green grass and blue sky and flocks of cattle and sheep under white clouds, which is a magnificent grassland scenery.
