Girls, don't go to Inner Mongolia! Don't go to the grasslands, I regret it, it's too free.

I just got back from Inner Mongolia, and I can't get the endless grasslands and the ridiculously blue sky out of my head! As a girl traveling alone, this 3-day, 2-night trip was both relaxing and fulfilling. Now let me take you back to this wonderful journey in the north! The best time to visit Inner Mongolia is from September to October. This 3-day, 2-night trip was both relaxing and fulfilling, and I can't get the endless grasslands and the ridiculously blue sky out of my head. 1. Introduction to the attractions **1. Hulunbuir Grassland** On the first day, I went straight to the Hulunbuir Grassland! It was beyond my imagination, with vast grasslands stretching as far as the eye can see, and you can't even see the end of the horizon. The grasslands are full of cattle and sheep, and the vastness of the landscape really opens up your mind. The local herders are also very enthusiastic, and you can stop at any time to take pictures with them and chat. They will also invite you to try freshly squeezed milk. - **Admission**: Free - **Travel advice**: It is recommended to set off in the morning when the sun is just right and the weather is cool. This is the best time for horse riding and photography. Renting a horse to ride on the grassland is a highlight, but be careful of the horse's temper and choose a gentle one. **2. Erguna Wetland** Next, I went to the Erguna Wetland, known as the "No. 1 Wetland in Asia". The wetland in autumn is very spectacular, with yellow and green colors and rich layers. It is a paradise for photography enthusiasts. I climbed up to the viewing platform to overlook the entire wetland, and the scenery was as beautiful as an oil painting. The design of the walkway here is very good, with scenic spot introduction signs along the way, making it very relaxing and enjoyable to walk. - **Opening hours**: 7:00 - 18:00 - **Admission**: CNY 120 - **Travel advice**: It is recommended to come here in the afternoon, when the wetland under the setting sun has a stronger sense of color and the scenery is more charming. Bring a camera and you will definitely be able to take beautiful pictures! **3. Morghul River** On the third day, I went to the Morghul River, known as the "No. 1 Curved Water in the World". The river is winding and winding, winding through the grasslands, like a silver ribbon. This area is also often used as a location for many movies and TV shows, such as "Wolf Totem". Standing on a high place overlooking this river, you can feel the magic of nature. - **Travel advice**: There is not much commercial development here, which makes me feel more natural. You can take a walk by the river, or sit down and listen to the sound of the wind blowing through the grasslands. There is no admission fee here, so you can always walk into the embrace of nature. 2. Precautions The travel experience in Inner Mongolia is very pleasant, but there are some small tips to pay attention to, which will help you better adapt to the environment here: - **Sun protection and moisturizing**: The grasslands and wetlands have very strong sunlight and high UV rays, so be sure to bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat. In addition, the air is relatively dry, so moisturizing skin care products are also essential. - **Language communication**: Most Mongolian friends can speak Mandarin, but some herders only speak Mongolian. If you don't understand something, you can use more body language, everyone is very friendly. - **Pay attention to weather changes**: The weather in the grassland area changes quickly, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is large. It is recommended to bring a thick coat to prevent colds. - **Horse riding safety**: If you choose to ride a horse on the grassland, be sure to follow the instructions of the staff. First-time riders should not choose horses that are too wild. Keep steady when riding and pay attention to safety. 3. Personal experience sharing This trip to Inner Mongolia gave me so many surprises! On the first day, I chose to ride a horse. Although I was a little nervous at first, the horses on the grassland were really gentle. The feeling of the wind whistling past my ears made me relax instantly. Standing on the high ground of the grassland, I really felt the magnificent scenery of "the sky is vast and the wilderness is vast", and I felt extremely comfortable. The wetland tour on the second day gave me a different kind of tranquility. Standing on the viewing platform of the Erguna Wetland, the scenery in front of me was like a slow motion in a movie, everything slowed down, only the wind was blowing and the birds were singing. This is a great place to empty yourself and enjoy some alone time with nature. On the last day, I strolled along the Morghul River. The river was flowing slowly, and there were hardly any tourists around. This is a great place to relax and meditate. When I got tired, I just sat down on the grass, breathing in the fresh air, and I felt completely healed.
