I thought Altay was beautiful enough! Until I came to Hulunbuir in summer

After experiencing the four seasons in Altay, I unlocked the ultimate grassland adventure in Hulunbuir: Blue skies, white clouds, grazing cattle and sheep, galloping horses— Every frame is as healing as a Hayao Miyazaki anime. Ride a mini train across the grasslands ✔ Feed reindeer in primeval forests ✔ Eat Russian bread in a wooden cabin ✔ Become the protagonist of a borderland fairytale for a day! Experience life as a carefree sheep 🐏 on the 25°C grasslands— Lie in the grass, gaze at the clouds, and enjoy a healing fairytale summer! ❗ Best time to visit By late May, Hulunbuir turns entirely green, making June the perfect time to visit with its ideal 25°C summer escape. Lush pastures, seas of wildflowers, grasslands vaster than Australia’s, forests rivaling Canada’s, Russian-style villages, birch forests... the scenery changes daily. ❗ How to get there ✈ Guangzhou → Hulunbuir Airport Direct flight: 3.5h 💰1500+!
