See Kangning Temple again.
I have heard about Kangning Temple for a long time, but I have never been there.
It was also a coincidence that I passed by when I was photographing veterans in the city in 2022. I took a few photos in a hurry and said goodbye in a hurry.
Two years have passed in a flash. I have always wanted to go, but I have never been able to go.
One day in October this year, I went to Meilin and passed by Kangning Temple. I felt very friendly when I saw it, but after noon, I didn’t go.
After seven or eight days, I went to Meilin, secretly determined to visit the temple!
Kangning Temple was built in the early Yuan Dynasty (1260-1271) and has a history of more than 700 years. It is an important temple of the Sakya Sect of Tibetan Buddhism in Mongolia during the Yuan Dynasty.
The original name of Kangning Temple is "Harihetun Temple", which means "Palace of Mahakala" in Mongolian and Gulna in Tibetan, which is the Black Tent Temple. Kangning Temple was originally a palace for the guardian of the army, which moved with the pastures in the four seasons. It was located in Jinshan Town, Haraqin Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, and later moved to Meilin Valley. It covers an area of more than 100 acres, and the building area is 5,000 square meters opposite Kangning Temple.
Emperor Kangxi missed his beloved daughter Princess Duanjing who was married to the prince of Karaqin Banner after the Manchu-Mongolia marriage (1692-1698). When he came to visit, he saw the quiet and solemn "Harihetun Temple" and the auspicious clouds in the sky. Longyan Dayue took the two characters of the temple's "Jingjing" and "Duanjing" princesses together to form "Ning", and added her own character "Kang" as the first word, so she named it "Kangning Temple", which means: "Bless our people, May we live in peace, happiness, longevity, and peace, and will never have wars or disasters.”

Travel around Chifeng.
Around Chifeng | Jinshan Town One-day Tour Sightseeing and Eating Guide
Jinshan Town, Karaqin Banner, is an hour's drive from Chifeng and is a peaceful and beautiful place. When autumn is in full swing, take a walk along the Xibo River and see the forest dyeing Jinshan Mountain. It really has a unique flavor.
-Jinshan Town one-day tour route (self-driving version)
①Lingyue Temple
Built during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, it was named Lingyue Temple in order to obtain blessings from the gods and good luck in everything. When it was prosperous, there were more than 500 monks living in the temple. It is currently located in the center of Jinshan City, a quiet place amidst the bustle (the black meow inside) Hosted by Hao Ku Hao Relatives)
②Longquan Temple Tourist Area
There is an ancient well 15 meters away from the temple, which was called "Longquan" in ancient times. The spring water never dries up all year round, hence the name "Longquan Temple". It is 3 kilometers away from the city. There is also a vegetarian meal if you go before 12 o'clock.
③Prince Karaqin’s Mansion
Founded in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty (1679), it was the residence of the tribute princes of the Qing Dynasty and was named the "Museum of the Mansion of the Mongolian Princes of the Qing Dynasty in China".
④Meilin Valley Scenic Area
It is a spontaneously formed tourist destination with primary sub-forest and sub-alpine wetland meadow as the main landscape.
-Jinshan food recommendations
1. Junlelai Iron Pot Home Cooking (open until early morning, stewing everything in a small casserole is especially suitable for this season)
2. Daqinghua dumplings (local stir-fried pork mushrooms are a must-have)
3. There are many Mongolian and Halal dishes, and they all basically have the same taste, which is unique to Chifeng.
"Double sandwich" I think is like Roujiamo, only more salty.
In short, Jinshan Town around Chifeng is worth a day trip, especially in autumn.

Trust me, go to Western Sichuan to see snow mountains in winter.
You don't have to worry about the weather in Western Sichuan in winter. It's sunny every day, and you can see different snow mountains every day. The sunrises and sunsets are amazing. There are not many people before and after the Spring Festival, so hurry up! Here are some spots for shooting snow mountains for your reference:
1⃣p1-2 Yala Snow Mountain Tagong Grassland - On the way to Gunong Village, you can see the snow mountain on the right side of the road.
2⃣p3-4 Moya Monastery and the temple under Yala Snow Mountain, the collision of faith. The shooting location is inside Moya Monastery. After entering the gate, turn left a little and you will see it. Tickets are required, and I remember it was 20 per person.
3⃣p5-8 Gongga Snow Mountain Hailuogou Moxi Town, p5 the town just waking up and the golden mountain, p6 the sunrise golden mountain on the roof of the homestay, p8 accidentally seen from the plane window.
4⃣p9-10 Balang Shengdu Starry Sky Camp, a good place to see Yala Snow Mountain and shoot the sunset golden mountain from a high place, with a good view and no obstruction. However, I had a serious altitude sickness here, so I suggest going down the mountain after shooting.
5⃣p12-14 Siguniang Mountain, I encountered snow in Siguniang Mountain. Although I didn't see the peak, it was like breaking into a fairy tale world of ice and snow, so dreamy and beautiful.

Shanrong Tribe, a 1.5-hour tour of choice.
As soon as you enter, the first thing you see is the very symbolic and characteristic bull horn gate of the Shanrong culture. Take a closer look, and the simple and heavy historical flavor immediately comes over.
Then there is the majestic Shanrong Tribe ticket office. From here, you can take a sightseeing bus to start a great journey. Along the way, you will pass the beautiful Siheyuan "Shanrong No. 1 Courtyard", which is a good place to stay and eat.
There are mainly two routes to play in the Shanrong Tribe, one is the fun entertainment route Chaolu Village, and the other is the beautiful natural route Nulu Village. The sightseeing bus continues to move forward, and you can see Chaolu Village on the right. Entering Chaolu Village, the first thing you see is the fun water park and the swaying suspension bridge. Going forward, it is the Shanrong Cultural Square.

The most successful Ctrip trend.
The most successful Ctrip trend! An underestimated treasure city
Wuhan is truly an underestimated treasure city!
In a desolate desert, you can see the blue sea, soft yellow sand, lonely dead trees, and skyscrapers at the end of the desert road, including an ancient temple built on a cliff. All of these attracted me, so I traveled over 2,400 kilometers to see this treasure city with half desert and half sea!
.
📸Recommended attractions
🔸Wuhan Lake
Half desert and half sea, a lonely yet romantic place. Not only can you take photos of the desert and sea coexisting, but the dead trees inside also give a sci-fi feel. Especially when you look at the city from the desert road, you feel like you're seeing a mirage. It's truly amazing!
In addition to taking photos, there are also desert off-road vehicles, jet skis, and desert camels to play with.
(Navigate to "Wuhan Lake No. 1 Pier", where you can take a speedboat or ferry directly to the dead trees and desert road.)
.
🔸Lasheng Temple
An ancient temple built on a mountainside, also known as the "Little Potala Palace". The architecture is magnificent and combines Tibetan and Han artistic styles. Although the place is not big, the view is unique and there are few people.
.
✈️How to get there?
You can take a plane to "Wuhan Airport", and then take a taxi from the airport to Wuhan Lake Scenic Area in just half an hour.
However, as Wuhan City is not big and is the smallest city in Inner Mongolia, it is recommended to visit Yinchuan together. You can fly to Yinchuan and play for a few days, then rent a car and drive to Wuhan. (It only takes 2 hours to drive from Yinchuan Airport to Wuhan Lake.)

✅Tips
❶Pay attention to sun protection, moisturizing, and wind and sand protection. The desert wind is very strong and the sand flies everywhere. It is best to wear long boots, sunglasses, a hat, and a mask.
❷There is a large temperature difference between morning and evening, so remember to bring a thicker coat.

The leaves in Meilingu have turned yellow, but not completely.
Avoid the crowds during the National Day holiday and head north from Beijing to less crowded places.
Overall self-driving plan: Beijing - Guyuan Grassland Sky Road - Duolun Lake (overnight) - Re Shuitang (overnight) - Re A Line - Highway 99 - Balin Right Banner (overnight) - Hohhot - Chifeng City (overnight) - Meilingu - Chengde (overnight) - Beijing. The last stop of the self-driving tour is Meilingu.
Meilingu is located in Chifeng Karaqin Banner. As the name suggests, it is indeed very beautiful, with various landforms, and there is also a Kangning Temple built in the Yuan Dynasty more than 700 years ago. It is a secret place very close to Beijing.
The entire Meilingu scenic area currently has no traces of commercialization and no management intervention, which also means that with the increase in popularity, public health and environmental problems are becoming increasingly prominent.
It must be said that this place is very suitable for camping along the scenic greenway. There are many suitable camping spots. Many cars and crowds are setting up tents for camping.
But there are a few places where you can drive in and see garbage everywhere, and there are a few traces of open flames. It can be foreseen that if there is no operation by the management, it may not last long.
I hope that friends who come here to camp can protect this secret place.

Qing Mongolian Culture Museum | The Prince of Kalaqin's Mansion
The Prince of Kalaqin's Mansion. The Prince of Kalaqin's Mansion, a building with hundreds of years of history, appears to me as an ancient and mysterious world. As I step into the mansion, I am stunned by its massive scale. Within the vast courtyard, the buildings are scattered in an orderly fashion, resembling a small city, making one marvel at its grandeur and momentum.
Looking around the mansion, I am amazed by the scenery before me. Verdant pines are spread throughout, like a dense forest. These pines stand tall and straight, their crowns like green umbrellas, elegant and poised. Each of their emerald leaves gently sways in the breeze, adding a sense of tranquility and vitality to the mansion. The pine forest adds a unique charm to the royal residence, filling it with a distinctive local flavor.
It is said that the construction of the mansion took feng shui into consideration, planning the layout of the pine forest meticulously to ensure the best fortune for the place, making it the most important element of the entire mansion. Whether indoors or outdoors, one can always feel the presence of the pine trees. Whether in the scorching summer or the cold winter, the pines bring comfort and warmth to the mansion.
Although most of the buildings have been rebuilt later, I can still sense the breath of history from these ancient trees. Sheltered by the pines, the mansion seems to have traveled through the river of time, extending its glorious history to the present. Although the years have passed, the pines still stand guard here, witnessing the prosperity and splendor that once existed.
In this ancient residence, I feel as if I have traveled through time and space to the past. I imagine how the prince, with his unique insights into feng shui, turned this mansion into a magnificent and spectacular building. I can envision how he carefully chose the location of each pine tree, each tall and straight trunk, like a heavy history book, recording the past glory and honor of this place.
The Prince of Kalaqin's Mansion is an ancient building that has withstood the test of time, now a key national cultural heritage site. And the pine forest, as the most eye-catching element of the estate, adorns the place like a picturesque poem. No matter how times change, I believe that the Prince of Kalaqin's Mansion and the pine forest will forever be etched in people's memories, becoming an eternal legend on this land.

Promise me! When you come to Inner Mongolia, don't miss the treasure city of Ulanhot!
Promise me! Don't miss the treasure city of Ulanhot when you come to Inner Mongolia, and enjoy the double happiness of Mongolian cuisine and the history of the Xing'an League.
Driving from Beijing to the northern border of the country, I'm used to visiting the museum of a strange place first to learn about its history and stories from ancient times to the present, so I made a special arrangement to visit the Xing'an League Museum in Ulanhot.
Make an appointment in advance, enter before 16:00, the museum is not big, only two floors.
One exhibition hall displays the political changes from the Stone Age to the present, as well as ethnic minority costumes and bronzes, and I saw three treasures of the museum (︶∞).
Here comes the highlight! I stumbled upon a treasure restaurant in Ulanhot, the owner must be a collector, the whole shop is filled with Mongolian handicrafts, I saw several beautiful Morin khuur (horsehead fiddles) 0O ethnic accessories, handmade crafts...
While chatting with the owner, he said that many of the items in the Xing'an League Museum were also donated by him, no wonder some of the exhibits I saw were marked as collected from Ulanhot City. The restaurant is called a treasure because it's not only beautiful but also delicious and cheap. We ordered hand-grabbed meat, blood sausage, fried eggs with Allium mongolicum, stuffed stomach meat... The average cost per person is just over 60, which is definitely not tourist area pricing. It's cheap and tasty.
If you're traveling in Inner Mongolia and pass by here, promise me you'll check it out, and I wish everyone a happy holiday~

Chifeng Yulong Shuihui| A great bathhouse to take your kids to!!
| A great bathhouse to take your kids to!!
I love taking big baths, feel refreshed after washing. Today I went to the old brand bathhouse Yulong Shuihui, which is very large, with a total of 5 floors including the underground. Mostly wooden structures, many zones, you can go for a stroll, very suitable for taking kids to play, there is a special water play area, remember to bring swimsuits
The temperature in the sweat-steaming room is not high, I like sweat steaming, this place is a bit disappointing, the highest temperature is less than 40 degrees
There is also a cream glue DIY area and coloring dolls, the price is also okay, those interested can go play. There is accommodation and overnight in the hall, if you are from the south, I highly recommend you to stay overnight in the bath center, it saves money haha
They also have a famous donkey meat bun, you can try it. The female bathing area has their unique one-on-one bucket bath, which is very suitable for those who want privacy. I personally feel that the changing area is a bit dark, the lighting is not bright, be careful when taking the elderly!!
: Intersection of Linhong Avenue and Daban Road in Xincheng District
: 79 yuan/person (group purchase is more cost-effective, no additional consumption)

Inner Mongolia·Chifeng·Kalaqin Banner·Wangyefu
Gongsangnuorbu, the Kalaqin Prince's Mansion, is located in Wangyefu Town, Kalaqin Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. It was first built in the 18th year of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty (1679), and it is the former residence of Gongsangnuorbu.
The Kalaqin has always been nomadic and war-torn in history, and it was not until the 18th year of Kangxi (1679) that a mansion of the county king level was built in the current Kalaqin Wangfu. In the 48th year of Qianlong (1783), after being promoted to the prince level, it was expanded on the basis of the county king's mansion into a prince's mansion. The princes of all dynasties have expanded and repaired, but the central axis building form has always been maintained. For more than 300 years after the completion of the mansion, it has always been the mansion of the county kings and princes of all dynasties.
The Kalaqin Prince's Mansion originally covered an area of more than 300 acres, with more than 490 rooms. There are five courtyards in total, with a main hall, a second hall, a letter gate, a main hall, and a Chengqing Building on the central axis. On both sides are the courtyards. Inside the courtyard are the living area and the conference area. On the west side are the temple, ancestral hall, guest room, conference hall, study, and martial arts field buildings; on the east side are the theater, the bedroom of the prince and the Fujin, the dining room, etc. The main buildings and courtyards are all red brick walls. Twelve generations of Kalaqin Mongolian princes have successively taken over the government in the Kalaqin Prince's Mansion.

Inner Mongolia·Chifeng·Kalaqin Banner·Ma'anshan
Jinshan Town's Ma'anshan got its name because it resembles a saddle. During the National Day holiday, many people specifically look for small scenic spots. The Ma'anshan scenic spot is okay, not too crowded or too empty, the parking lot is already full. The mountain is not high but it's quite tiring to climb. The view from the top is really worth the trip, with the mountains scattered, the clouds covering the sunset, and the whole Jinshan Town in sight.

Ulan Buh
Ulan Buh heard that the forest sea and snowfield can cure everything
Winter has come, the north has entered a season not suitable for outdoor activities, and I who have not been out for a long time have fallen into the panic of stopping and yellowing
Fortunately, there are snow scenes to watch in the winter in the north. All the way to the north, in Ulan Buh at minus 30 degrees Celsius, there are forest sea and snowfields, icicles, ice flowers, sundogs and other sights that can only be seen in extremely cold weather
Because the journey is long and the daylight time in winter is short, we set off on Friday and stayed overnight in Chengde on the zero day
On the first day after entering the Saihanba Linli District, the sky completely dimmed, countless ice crystals and snowflakes covered the sky, we rarely walked into such a forest sea and snowfield, everyone was very excited
There are a lot fewer tourists in winter, but it's not too few. It's so cold at this temperature, and there are still cars passing by this icy road every few minutes
Close to the Ulan Buh scenic area, the distant landscape immediately changed from a snow forest to a snowfield. The trees on the grassland have a cute tune because they resemble broccoli in shape
What's even more rare is that sharp-eyed Brother Long found a small animal hundreds of meters away. I zoomed in with a telephoto lens and found out that it was a fox. This is the first time most of us have seen a wild fox
The snow is 20-30cm deep, which is not exaggerated for students from the Northeast. For friends from the South, it can be said to be an eye-opener
When we were playing in the snow, we happened to meet local herders who came to ride snowmobiles. They said they could take us for a free ride. We had a lot of people and took several rounds. In the end, we politely gave money. Everyone is happy to be truly happy
For this kind of "bitter cold place", we expected all kinds of hardships, but we didn't expect the hotel conditions to be quite good, and the food was surprisingly delicious
In recent years, we can still feel that the quality of tourism services in various places has improved
Early the next morning, when I opened the curtain, there were ice flowers frozen on the window glass, and there was a rainbow in the distance
But the rainbow should be away from the sun, along the sunlight, common sense tells me this
It's not a rainbow!!!
I went downstairs and found that the view was more open, it was a sundog
We swim in the Ulan Buh scenic area, often have the illusion of packing this scenic area, because there are almost no people. Along the gentle curves of the mountains and rivers
