Hulunbuir

Hulunbuir, located in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in northern China near the borders with Russia and Mongolia, is known for housing one of Asia's largest and best-preserved prairies. This vast landscape of green steppes, winding rivers and open skies offers a completely different image of China, closer to the nomadic world of Mongolian cultures. The region is famous for its extensive prairies where horses and herds graze, its lakes such as Hulun and Buir, and for the presence of Mongolian communities that still maintain traditions such as horse riding, music and living in yurts. Travellers can explore the steppe on horseback, visit nomadic camps, enjoy the local cuisine based on lamb and dairy products, and watch spectacular sunsets over the infinite prairies. Due to its continental climate, it is recommended to bring comfortable outdoor clothing, wind protection and clothing for temperature changes, especially at night which can be cool even in summer. Hulunbuir is an ideal destination for those who want to discover northern China's wildest and most open nature and experience the traditional culture of the Mongolian steppes up close.
