Genheyuan National Wetland Park is located on the western slope of the northern foot of the Greater Khingan Range, in Genhe City, Hulunbuir City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The park has a variety of ecosystems including forests, swamps, rivers, lakes, etc. The forests and wetlands are interlaced and are all in their original or natural state. It is the breeding ground for many East Asian waterfowl and one of the most intact and typical cold temperate wetland ecosystems in my country that has preserved its original state. Genhe River, the largest tributary of the Ergun River, is the main body of the wetland park. According to local hotel staff, if it had been 15 days earlier, the entire wetland would have been colorful, instead of the single color shown in the photos today. #lake #stream #river #forest #wetland #naturetrip #naturalbeauty #naturalwonder #InnerMongolia #travelinChina

This summer, you must take your kids to the vast grassland at least once! Blue skies, white clouds, green meadows, and flocks of sheep under windmills—it looks just like a scene from a Miyazaki anime. Kids can run freely on the grassland, pet adorable little lambs 🐑, feed 🫎 elk in the birch forest, enjoy delicious 🥙 Russian cuisine, and more. It’s truly worth bringing your children here for a holiday experience. 🗺️ Here’s our 7-day, 6-night itinerary from last year: D1: Depart from your city - Arrive in Hailar, Hulunbuir D2: Hailar - Private Pasture - Genhe D3: Genhe - Aoluguya - Moerdaoga - White Deer Island D4: White Deer Island - Genbai Highway - Enhe D5: Enhe - Heishantou - Badaguan - Eji Hometown D6: Eji Hometown - 186 Colorful River - Manzhouli D7: Manzhouli - Barhu Tribe - Hailar, Departure ✨ Travel Tips: 1️⃣ The best time to visit Hulunbuir is from June to August. Flight and hotel prices surge, so book early! 2️⃣ Fly ✈️ to Hailar Airport—don’t mistakenly book flights to Hohhot Airport, which is miles away! 3️⃣ The temperature varies greatly between day and night. Even in summer, bring a 🧥 jacket. Girls, wear 👢 boots to avoid scratches from tall grass. 4️⃣ The UV rays are strong—always apply sunscreen and reapply during the day, or you’ll end up several shades darker like me 🤲🏿. 5️⃣ I went in early June, and the wind was so strong it nearly blew me away 😭. Bring a hat and mask. 6️⃣ Mosquitoes and midges are unavoidable—pack insect repellent. Allergy-prone folks, remember to bring 💊. 7️⃣ Grassland accommodations are basic—lower your expectations.

Anyone who has visited Hulunbuir becomes enchanted by its landscapes and cherishes the memories forever 🤗. Here, you'll find meandering rivers and wildflower-covered hillsides! Kids can run freely across the grasslands, ride fairy-tale trains 🚂, cuddle adorable lambs 🐑, feed 🫎 elk in birch forests, horseback ride to mountain peaks 🐎 for sunset views, craft sunflowers, and savor delicious 🥙 Russian cuisine. I previously visited Hulunbuir in June with elderly family members and children, so I prepared an extremely detailed itinerary. Here’s my 7-day, 6-night travel plan for you! 🖼️ Our itinerary: D1: Departure - Hulunbuir · Hailar D2: Hailar - Private Pasture - Genhe D3: Genhe - Aoluguya - Moerdaoga - White Deer Island D4: White Deer Island - Genbai Highway - Enhe D5: Enhe - Heishantou - Badaguan - Eji Hometown D6: Eji Hometown - 186 Colorful River - Manzhouli D7: Manzhouli - Barhu Tribe - Hailar, Departure ✨ Practical tips: 1️⃣ Traveled with kids for 7 days, exploring Hulunbuir's private pastures, Genhe, Aoluguya, Moerdaoga, White Deer Island, Manzhouli, Eji Hometown, 186 Colorful River, and Heishantou. We entered the private pasture by pickup truck—a real local herder's land, free from crowded tourist spots. 3️⃣ The most stunning scenery is along the way. Several families joined us, and to relax while keeping the kids entertained, we opted for a family-friendly group tour. 4️⃣ For local specialties, buy unique foods at each stop: Hailar’s beef jerky, dairy products, and other Mongolian treats; Manzhouli’s Russian candies and chocolates; Genhe’s blueberries, mushrooms, and forest delicacies. 5️⃣ Avoid random roadside horseback riding. Choose licensed ranches, especially near Heishantou, where horses are trained, insured, and gentler. 6️⃣ Hulunbuir often has sun showers 🌦️, but they pass quickly—you might even catch a rainbow 🌈! No need to worry. 7️⃣ Summer grass is lush, and while insects are plentiful, most don’t bite. 8️⃣ Great food and lodging experiences: stay in 🏨 traditional wooden lodges 🛖, gaze at grasslands from a yurt ☘️, or try the Matryoshka Doll Hotel 🪆. ✨ Must-try foods: ✅ Mongolian hotpot: "Grassland Ballad" in Hailar is the most authentic. ✅ Hand-grabbed mutton: "Herder’s Home" in Heishantou serves it fresh. ✅ Russian breakfast: Homemade blueberry jam with bread at Enhe village B&Bs. ✅ Roast whole lamb: Best for groups of 8+—we shared one with other families. ✅ Dairy treats: Yogurt, milk skin, and milk curds—kids devoured them daily.
