Where is Northland? Is the Northland Prairie fun?

Sometimes, traveling is not easy. Without comprehensive planning, I will feel very insecure, so this trip to the north has been planned for quite a long time. When I finally embarked on this journey, I was both excited and excited. After all, this is the first time on the road, and everything will be a good start. The scenery in the north is waiting for me to come to you.

About the route

Date 1: Departure from Shenyang-Wulanhaote (1 city)-Aershan City (No.2 city)

Date 2: Aershan National Geological Forest Park (1 Mountain)

Date 3: China-Mongolia border gate (1 gate)-Hulun Lake (1 lake)-arrived in Manzhouli (the third city).

Day 4: Taowa Square-the gate of the Sino-Russian border (the second gate)-Return trip

About the itinerary:

The trip to go on road trip lasted for 4 days, passing through Tongliao, Siping, Songyuan, Baicheng, Xing 'an League, Aershan, Xinbaerhu Right Banner, Xinbaerhu Zuo Qi and Manzhouli, with a round trip of about 3100km.

Date 1: Shenyang-Ulanhot-Aershan gets up early, goes out after 5 o'clock, and it's sunny ~

Arrive at Ulanhot on time around noon 12, and then go straight to "Mengdu Style Hotel", which is a Mongolian style restaurant recommended online. The "public comment" score is very high, and the dishes have not let me down.

It's the first time to eat such delicious roast lamb chops, and now I want to drool ~ ~

I'm a little disappointed with your shredded milk tofu. I don't know if I don't like it, or what, it tastes just so-so.

1A string of big mutton skewers in 2 yuan, the mutton tastes pure and cheap.

Milk tea is salty and has a strong taste. I was not used to it at first. As soon as the mutton mouth is put down, I will have a sip of milk tea, which is very boring.

Genghis Khan Temple

After lunch, go to the scenic spot of Wulanhaote Station-Chengjisi Khan Temple, which is very close to Mengdu Style Hotel, just across the road.

I didn't go into the temple, took some photos on the Little Square in front of the temple, and then went to Neinao Lake. There is a maze made of low walls. Turn for a while, turn for three times, turn for five times, and turn for two times.

The time for eating and shopping at this stop adds up to about three hours.

Aershan

Set out for Aershan, with the goal of reaching the hotel in Aershan before dark.

Walking on the road of Aershan, you can't finish your eyes, because at the end of May, the temperature in the north was over 20 degrees, and the grass was just green, just like the ingenious landscape painting of nature, with elegant beauty.

The sheep and horses grazing leisurely on the road are comfortable and leisurely, leaving the noisy city composed of reinforced concrete and suddenly admiring it.

Drive a few kilometers and you will meet Aobao. The bustling Aobao and dome are all made of cement. Simplicity is a hill of stones. As long as the places where most people live can meet the needs of Aobao, its prosperity also reflects the living standards of the people living there. I think this may be a belief, just like the statue of Guan Gong that some Han people offer at home. On some festivals, people hold Nadam around Aobao. Unfortunately, I missed the festival and didn't see Nadam (a festival for Mongolian people to celebrate the harvest).

On the way to Aershan, I met "Ecological Park-Birch Forest-Bailang Town-Panshan Road-Wenquan Town-Hirsch Town" in turn.

Encounter ecological garden

That birch forest reminds me of Pu Shu's songs.

When I came to Bailang Town, the origin of the place name was not the white wolf, but the Mongolian word "Bailiga", which means "rich".

As night fell, our car began to climb the last mountain leading to Aershan. Aershan, the smallest city in China, is known as the Swiss City of China. Because of its hot springs and national geological forest park, it has changed from a small village to a micro-city with tourism as its mainstay. The city is clean and the roads are wide. There are many hot spring hotels in the whole city, and all the buildings are very new. It looks like a city that has sprung up the day after tomorrow.

I live in Hirsch (a beautiful name, Mongolian used to be a post station), a small town about 20 minutes' drive from Aershan, which is closer to the next day's trip-Aershan National Forest Park. Sure enough, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and even the average room area of Hanting Hotel is larger than that of other cities.

Date 2: The deepest feeling of Aershan National Forest Park entering Aershan area is the awareness of fire prevention. Going to the forest park requires a fire permit, which is free. The best government agency in Aershan is Forestry Bureau, where people live.

Half an hour's drive to Aershan National Geological Forest Park, with an altitude of 1, more than 200 meters. It's very cold. Watching friends in the circle of friends basking in short skirts by the sea, I feel shivering with cold. There is a specialty shop at the gate of the park, renting military coats and thick cotton-padded clothes. I find that the business of selling scarves and renting clothes is the best, which is really a rigid demand of tourists. I joined an aunt group and bargained for a big shawl. It's not cold at last.

It usually takes two days to visit the park, and we chose several landmark attractions.

Dujuan Lake

After returning from Aershan, we went to another scenic spot-Wuliquan, named after the spring water, 2.5 kilometers away from Aershan.

Date 3: Hulun Lake, the gate of China-Mongolia border, arrived in Manzhouli early the next morning, left hershey and went to Rose Peak first.

To go to Mongolia, you still have to apply for a fire permit, a fire permit, a fire permit or a fire permit, and you have to go to Hirsch Town to apply for a fire permit. My heart sank, and the original journey of 0.5 hours became 1.5 hours.

China and Mongolia are temporarily closed to the outside world and can only be ignored. Although we communicated with the soldiers, it was still fruitless. So save the ticket money and overlook it as a souvenir.

When we met a folk village on the road, we just stopped to visit. There are national costumes for horseback riding, archery and photography, yurt tents, and bonfire parties in the evening. Tourists should be group tours organized by a company.

Hulun Lake

Going to Hulun Lake, the car drove for a while and the weather cleared up again. I continue to enjoy the endless grassland.

Hulun Lake is the largest lake in Inner Mongolia, the fifth largest freshwater lake in China and the largest lake in Northeast China. We chose the southwest bank of Hulun Lake because there is a scenic spot-Genghis Khan tied to a horse.

Looking at Manzhouli from a distance, when there are blue sky and white clouds above us, the dark clouds are already on the top of the doll square. Our car arrived at the doll square, and I ran out of the car with joy and hugged the doll square. The scratching rain hit my face and ran to the car. I don't know when the rain will stop, so we decided to settle down in the reserved hotel first.

Loubry Western Restaurant, a Russian western restaurant that received rave reviews on the Internet, was finally found in the streets. I found that there were many diners waiting in line. In order to eat, I also struggled and waited for half an hour. The food is delicious and exotic ~ I think half a small one is worth waiting for.

Smectan cheesecake, queen salad, sea salt and fruit sea, vegetable soup with rosemary red, Russian charcoal sausage and roast pork chops are all delicious.

On the third day, I ended up with a good meal.

Date 4: Doll Square-Sino-Russian border-On the fourth day of the return trip, I went to Doll Square early in the morning. All kinds of dolls are very cute, and the girl's heart is bursting, so I took beautiful photos as a souvenir.

Then go to China and Russia, and you can buy tickets to visit (the group purchase price is in 63 yuan). China's entrance to the country has evolved from the first generation to the fifth generation, which is magnificent and adds a lot of pride. There is a railway to Russia under the national gate.

After visiting the country, I went to eat the "Mongolian grassland family" recommended by that netizen.

Fried Jinsha milk skin

mutton noodles

After eating, I started the return mode.

1 1: 30 Depart from Manzhouli, pass Hulunbeier-Qiqihar-Daqing-Songyuan-Shuangliao, and arrive at Shenyang's home at 3: 30 the next morning.

1, running all the way, will it be photographed? Is there a speed limit?

There must be, but you can't think of it, and you can't meet it without it. The speed limit in expressway is 70, and our car is like a wild horse that is about to get out of control, but it is forced to take the catwalk ~

2. How can you live in such a hurry? Is it a picnic?

Whether the route is designed well depends on whether it meets Maslow's physiological needs. The food is delicious, the bed is soft and you can sleep, and everything is fine.

3. What I fear most when driving is to navigate the wrong way. What should I do?

Take the lesser of the two evils and judge for yourself.

Do you have time to see the scenery on the road?

There are flowers in spring, leaves in autumn, cool breeze in summer and snow in winter. If you don't mind your own business, this is a good time on earth. Just let it out.

5. Is this trip interesting?

Interesting. A trip is like a story. Flat places are like turbulent water, and the climax has ups and downs. Most of the time, I like the endless grassland. Occasionally beautiful scenic spots, unexpected small obstacles, small luck and small surprises constitute the small plot in the story.

6. What is the biggest feeling of this trip?

The activities of this trip are mainly in Inner Mongolia, and the deepest feelings are environmental protection, fire prevention and Inner Mongolia people's heartfelt awe of nature. Because of the desertification caused by overgrazing, the original model can't make the homes that depend on it develop continuously. Because of folk customs, landforms, nature and other characteristics, tourism, wind power generation, forestry and so on, which are carried out according to local conditions, have enabled them to regain their livelihood. Because I lost it, I know how to be afraid of it.

7. What elements should a good trip have?

I think there should be: overall time design, reasonable route arrangement, accommodation nodes that meet physiological needs, story lines on the route, preferences of target groups, local landscapes with local characteristics, and folk interactive projects with a sense of substitution.

The significance of travel is probably because of the passage of time and the transfer of space, which gives you a bigger pattern and mind to deal with things in life and work, simplify the complicated things, turn the hostilities into friendship, and turn decay into magic.

Online ticket price of Forest Park 130 yuan/person, which can be played for 2 days; Bus ticket 105 yuan/person, bus is necessary.
