When is the best time to travel to Inner Mongolia?

Inner Mongolia has a semi-humid mid-temperate monsoon climate, with semi-humid areas in the east and semi-arid areas in the west. The main feature is the large temperature difference between day and night, which can generally reach about 10 degrees, so you should bring more clothes when traveling here. The disastrous weather in Inner Mongolia includes spring drought and winter blizzard.

Inner Mongolia can be divided into two climatic zones from east to west:

Grassland climate zone, from Hulunbeier grassland to Yinshan Hetao plain in the eastern end, is covered with ice and snow in winter, lasting for half a year, with an average temperature of about MINUS 28℃, and the three seasons are almost connected, and the climate is mild from May to September, which is the best season for grassland tourism.

Desert climate zone, from Alashan Desert Plateau to Badain Jaran Desert and then to the west of Yinshan Mountain, is full of storms in spring (from mid-April to the end of May), extremely hot in summer, extremely cold in winter and mild in autumn (from mid-August to the end of September, about 40 days), which is the best season to set foot in the desert. Precautions 1. Climatic factors Eastern Inner Mongolia belongs to continental monsoon climate of cold temperate zone and middle temperate zone, with large temperature difference between day and night. Therefore, in summer tourism (June-August), tourists should not only wear shorts and skirts, but also bring long-sleeved clothes so as to increase or decrease at any time; The weather in Inner Mongolia grassland is changeable. When it rains, the temperature drops a lot and the wind is stronger. It is more appropriate to bring a raincoat than an umbrella. Or go to the local grassland reception center to rent a cotton-padded coat. You'd better take an umbrella as a backup. The most important thing to travel in summer is to prevent heatstroke. Because of traveling in summer, because the temperature rises, and the heat in the body can't be emitted, heatstroke often occurs, ranging from headache and dizziness to coma and nonsense; Drink some light salt boiled water properly, because the temperature is high, sweat secretion will be very strong and energy consumption will be great, so it is necessary to supplement salt, protein and heat; Don't overeat cold drinks and greasy food; It is best to wear sunglasses and sun hat to prevent the occurrence of solar eclipse; Take some medicines with you, such as Huoxiang Zhengqi Water, Ten Drops of Water, Norfloxacin and other commonly used medicines. In addition, Inner Mongolia is a plateau, and the climate is relatively dry, which may be difficult to adapt to. Be sure to drink more water. If you are a girl, be sure to bring something with water spray to moisturize. 2. Ethnic factors Inner Mongolia is a region inhabited by ethnic minorities, mainly Mongolians, but also Hui and Tibetan minorities. Therefore, it is very important to avoid causing things that will be expanded into ethnic problems. Love animals: visit the grassland by car, or visit the herdsmen's home. Avoid the herd as early as possible when the car is driving, otherwise the car will suddenly wake up the animals and the animals will lose weight when they run in a hurry. If you meet cattle in the grassland, cars and pedestrians should detour and don't pass through the cattle, otherwise it will be considered as disrespect for the owner. Guest: Take a bus to the herdsmen's house to see if there are any horses tied to Lele's car near the yurt. Don't rush in, lest the horse break the reins and run away. Enter the bag from the left side of the stove and sit on the west and north sides of the yurt, with the owner's living room on the east side. Try not to sit. When sitting, don't block the Buddha statue hanging on Hana in the north. You can sit on the floor without taking off your shoes after entering the bag. Don't sit on the threshold. Tea service: When going to herdsmen's homes or tourist attractions, the host or waiter will give the guests a bowl of milk tea first. Guests should get up slightly and pick it up with their hands or right hands. Never pick it up with your left hand, or it will be considered impolite. When the host or waiter pours tea, if the guest doesn't want to drink tea, please gently touch the spoon or spout with the edge of the bowl, and the host will understand the guest's intention. Toast: pouring wine is a traditional way for Mongolian people to treat their guests. They believe that wine is the essence of food and the crystallization of grain, and offering the most precious food is to express the respect and love of grassland herders for their guests. Usually, the host pours wine into a silver bowl, a gold cup or a horn cup, puts it on a long Hada and sings a touching traditional Mongolian toast song. If guests push and pull and don't drink, they will be considered sorry for their hosts and unwilling to be honest with each other. Guests should immediately catch the wine, then dip their ring fingers in the wine and point to the direction of heaven, earth and stove to show their respect for heaven, earth and Vulcan. Don't be reluctant to drink, but touch your lips to show that you have accepted the pure friendship of your master.
