My WeChat Moments blew up with questions about this trip, but it's not abroad!

✅ Route Recommendation ▪Day 1: Exploring the Grasslands Hailar Station – Morigele River (No. 1 Meandering River in the World) → Ergun Wetland → Horseback Riding in Heishantou → Sunset at Sunset Mountain → Overnight Stay in a Yurt ▪Day 2: Border Town Scenery 186 Color Ribbon River Grass Skiing → Manzhouli Matryoshka Doll Square → National Gate Scenic Area → Return Trip ✅ Travel Tips 📍Morigele River (🎫 Free) ▪️ Climb to the highest point and overlook the "Nine Bends and Eighteen Turns." The flocks of sheep are scattered across the grassland like pearls. Drone aerial photography is a must 🚁. ▪️ Visit a herdsman's family by the river (CNY 50/person) to milk cows, wear Mongolian robes and shoot arrows. Freshly boiled milk tea with milk skin is fragrant, mellow, and heartwarming 🥛. 📍Heishantou Horseback Riding (💰CNY 200–500) ▪️ The horse farm offers graded instruction. Beginners should choose docile Mongolian horses, while experienced riders can gallop to Sunset Mountain 🌅. The horse keeper will accompany you throughout the entire ride. ▪️ Arrive at Sunset Mountain at 19:00 in the evening. The sunset glows and dyes the entire grassland red. A long red dress is the perfect match for a backlighting silhouette 📸. 📍186 Color Ribbon River (🎫 CNY 35, including the cost of the electric car) ▪️ The 1,000-meter grass slide has a diving speed of 60 km/hr. Screams and wind pass by your ears 🎢. The observation deck on the top of the mountain overlooks Russian villages. ▪️ Follow the tracks of the swan on the wetland boardwalk. In summer, you can see red-crowned cranes performing courtship dances in the reed marshes 💃. 📍Matryoshka Doll Square (🎫 CNY 148) ▪️ The world's largest Matryoshka doll building houses a Russian and Mongolian oil painting gallery. The mirror maze challenges your sense of direction 🪆. The circus performance at 12:00/15:00 is thrilling and exciting. ▪️ The night light show starts at 20:00. The pupils of the Matryoshka dolls turn into projection screens, deducing the customs of China, Russia, and Mongolia. ✅ Transportation Guide 🚗 How to Get There ▪️ Take a plane/train to Hailar Station. It is recommended to rent a car in advance during the peak season (approx. CNY 500/day). The grassland signal is weak, so you need to download an offline map. ▪️ When driving yourself, pay attention to the potholes on the grassland roads. SUV models are more stable, and refuel in time when the fuel tank is more than half full ⛽. 🚙 Internal Transportation ▪️ The distance between attractions exceeds 100 km. Chartering a car with a driver (approx. CNY 800/day) is the most worry-free option, and you can customize your route. ▪️ The Heishantou to Manzhouli route passes through a border defense highway. You need to turn off your mobile phone data to avoid accidentally connecting to an international signal 📵. ✨ Remarks Photography Bible: The morning mist of the Morigele River (5:00–6:30) is like a fairyland. Use a telephoto lens to compress the herd of horses and the sunset in Heishantou. Cultural Experience: Stay overnight in a yurt and participate in a bonfire party. Learn the Mongolian toasting song "Golden Cup, Silver Cup Filled with Wine." You must accept the Hada scarf with both hands. Special Reminder: The temperature difference between day and night on the grassland exceeds 15℃, so prepare a windbreaker. Mosquito repellent, sunscreen, and moisturizing face cream are essential. Wild Easter Egg: If you encounter the Nadaam Festival (July–August), the wrestling and horse racing will be thunderous. Check the festival dates in advance 📅.
