In summer, Inner Mongolia prairie presents a charming scene of green grass and blue sky, making it a good place for summer vacation and tourism. It is necessary for friends who first visit Inner Mongolia to get familiar with the precautions of grassland tour in advance. For this reason, experts of special travel and senior donkeys sent "brocade bags".
Understand grassland etiquette
Love animals : When the car is driving on the grassland, it should sound the horn as early as possible when it meets the herds, so that the herds can avoid early. Otherwise, the vehicle will startle the livestock, and the livestock will lose weight if they run quickly. If you meet herds on the grassland, cars and pedestrians should detour and not pass through the herds, otherwise it will be regarded as disrespect to the livestock owner.
Inbound : When entering the yurt, you should walk on the left side of the stove and sit on the west or north side of the yurt, because the east side is the living place of the master. When seated, do not block the Buddha statue hanging on the north Hana (wall). When entering a Mongolian family, whether it is a yurt or a brick house, you cannot sit or step on the threshold.
serve tea When visiting herdsmen's homes or tourist spots, the host or service lady will first offer a bowl of milk tea to the guests. Guests should stand up slightly and pick up with both hands or right hand. Never pick up with left hand, or they will be considered as not understanding etiquette. When the host or waitress pours tea, if the guest does not want tea, please gently touch the spoon or spout with the edge of the bowl, and the host will understand the guest's intention.
Toast : Offering wine to guests is a traditional way of Mongolian hospitality. Usually, the host pours good wine into a silver bowl, gold cup or ox horn cup, and sings a moving traditional Mongolian toast song. If the guest pushes him or her to let him or her not drink, he or she will be considered to despise the host and not be honest with him or her. Guests should immediately take the wine, dip their ring fingers in the wine and light it in the direction of heaven, earth and furnace to show respect to the gods of heaven, earth and fire. Don't drink or force, but touch your lips to show that you have accepted the pure friendship of the master.
1. Proper drinking of milk tea and dairy products can enhance the adaptability to grassland climate.
2. When you first enter the grassland, you should have more rest, drink more water and eat more fruits. The water quality in Hulunbeier is hard. Please don't drink raw water, but drink mineral water to prevent gastrointestinal discomfort. Diet should be moderate, and overeating is not allowed, so as not to increase the burden on the intestines and stomach.
3. In order to avoid mosquito bites and acclimatization, guests are requested to bring some medicines (such as dew, cooling oil, cold medicine, diarrhea medicine, etc.) by themselves.
4. On the grassland, there are many customs and taboos, so we should follow the local arrangements. Please respect national etiquette. Mongolian has been a hospitable people since ancient times. When guests arrive, they will be greeted with wine, but they will not be forced to drink all at once. However, those who are not comfortable with drinking must take the silver bowl and touch their lips to show politeness.
5. Hulunbeier mainly eats northern cuisine, which has a relatively strong taste. We will urge the hotel to pay special attention. In addition, the guests will taste the local flavor - hand grilled mutton. If you are not used to mutton, there are other meals, don't worry, which will satisfy the taste of many group members. (However, some food should be provided by the grassland scenic spot)
6. The temperature difference between day and night on the grassland is very large, generally about 14 degrees Celsius. In summer (June August), the temperature in Hulunbeier is about 30 degrees in the daytime, and only about 10 degrees in the evening! There are many mosquitoes in the grassland. Please prepare some medicine. It is better not to wear short clothes, pants or skirts. In summer, the ultraviolet rays in the grassland are relatively strong without shade, and the north is dry relative to the south, so sunscreen, moisturizer and lip balm should be prepared. Due to the high latitude, the local days begin to brighten around 3:00 in summer.
