Three days and two nights in Hohhot

1. Weather The three days in Hohhot were all sunny, and the daytime temperature was basically in the range of -7 to -13. Maybe it was because of the sunny weather, or maybe it was because of the enthusiasm for traveling, but I didn’t feel very cold when I encountered sub-zero temperatures for the first time. It felt more like the early morning temperature of frost in the south. 2⃣ About clothing I have never been to the north, and I was afraid of freezing to death, so I bought a lot of warm equipment. But during the few days I spent in Hohhot, I basically wore a wool vest + thermal underwear + sweater + coat on the upper body, and tights + big cotton pants on the lower body. If I played in the snow, I would wear a scarf, earmuffs, hat and gloves. I kept my down jacket with me because I was afraid of being cold, thinking I would put it on after taking the photos, but I never had the chance to wear it. (I didn’t use the foot warmer I bought…) (I had so much fun playing in the snow that I even lay in a snowdrift wearing only a sweater) 3⃣About itinerary Day 1: Left the airport at around 8:00, had some ice-cooked lamb and went back to the hotel to rest Day 2: Train to Ulanqab. After exiting the station, we chartered a car to go to Laolihai (about an hour’s drive). Then we set out from Laolihai to Ulanhada Volcano (about two and a half hours’ drive). Finally, we went from the volcano to Ulanqab Station. We took the train back to downtown Hohhot. We had Sanjiangyuan grilled fish for dinner (delicious and loved it). Day 3: I slept until noon and had Su Yuan Spicy Hot Pot. We chartered a car to go to Hongshi Cliff at around 1 a.m., because the guide said that the beauty of Hongshi Cliff lies in the scenery along the way. We finally stopped at the sign of [Inner Mongolia’s own Altay] and did not go into the scenic area (I don’t know what the inside of the scenic area is like, but the scenery on the way is really beautiful! The snow is enough for southerners to play with) 4⃣About photography equipment I brought Fuji xt30, DJI, and Canon g11. In conclusion, DJI restored 90% of the scenery I saw! I think wearing red/yellow/blue/purple clothes for taking photos will look better (the richer the colors, the better. Plush earmuffs are a must! Very photogenic) If you don’t want to bring too many clothes, you can bring a few scarves and hats to have more looks🤔 5. About drugs I felt dizzy and nauseous after dinner, so I took Huoxiang Zhengqi Pills and Compound Aminoacetamine Tablets. I felt much better the next day (especially energetic when taking photos). I also had severe red bloodshot eyes from wearing cosmetic contact lenses for too long, so I took Bausch and Lomb's Nai (it has a grass radical, but my input method can't type it) and Minvi Eye Drops (a magical drug, my eyes became brighter after using them and they were no longer red!) ⚠If you feel unwell, you should still see a doctor. I only describe my physical condition and symptoms and what medicine I took.
