[2025 East Ujimqin Banner Hotels] Travel Guide for Ulanhada Resort (Updated Jul)

Who says grassland experiences are only gentle? Found a "hardcore resort" on the border of Inner Mongolia—— Welcome with horse-mounting wine, horse team escort, wearing Mongolian robes to ride horses, chasing prairie dogs by day, drinking milk tea around the bonfire at night, this is the real joy of the grassland for men! 🌿 Why is this resort worth a strong guy's rush? It’s hidden in the Tianbian Grassland of Uragai, right next to the Mongolia border—— Underfoot is endless green grassland, in the distance are vast fields with herds of cattle and sheep, even the wind carries a sense of freedom~ What hits me most is how wild and genuine it is: ✔️ Hardcore welcome ceremony: horse team escort + khata toast, the moment the herdsman brother hands you the wine is full of chivalrous spirit ✔️ Mongolian robes to wear freely: free styles are cool enough, the 50 RMB bordered style with belt rented looks super manly when riding a horse for photos ✔️ Off-road charging slopes by day, bonfire jumping at night, 24 hours of wild fun with no repeats, who understands! 📍 Coordinates & Address 📍 Coordinates: Uragai Ulanhada Grassland Resort 📌 Specific address: 20 meters north of the Party and Mass Service Center of Ulanhada Gacha, 502 County Road, Uragai Management Area, East Ujimqin Banner 🏡 Accommodation tips: Sleep in the heart of the grassland ✅ Must stay in a Mongolian yurt! Comes with a private bathroom, traditional style but fully equipped~ The grassland nights in July are cool, the room has an electric blanket so no fear of cold! ⚠️ The grassland dawns early (lights up at 4 a.m.), bring an eye mask for a sound sleep so you have energy to play wild during the day~ ✅ Luxury space capsule: for those wanting to try something new, panoramic glass windows to lie down and watch stars, suitable for staying with a group of brothers 🔥 24-hour wild activity checklist 🌞 Hardcore fun by day 1. Full-on ceremonial welcome Horse team surrounds you to greet! Accept the herdsman’s horse-mounting wine (just touch lips if you don’t want to drink), the moment you are draped with a khata, you feel like the coolest guy on the grassland~ (Ask the welcome time in advance, don’t miss the grand moment!) 2. Wear Mongolian robes for tough guy photos Free styles are good for daily wear, the 50 RMB bordered style with riding boots is super cool! Stand next to the lele cart or hold a horse for photos, your social feed will explode~ 3. Off-road vehicle rush into the no-man’s land You must pay for this! The off-road vehicle takes you deep into the herding area, climbing slopes and crossing ditches is thrilling, along the way you can see prairie dogs peeking out, climbing the hill reveals the panoramic "Tianbian Grassland," wildflowers stretch to the horizon, so healing~ 4. Free activities that are super fun ✔️ Visit herdsmen’s homes to drink fresh milk ✔️ Ride the lele cart for a spin ✔️ Cuddle little lambs (full of cute contrast) ✔️ Archery, tug-of-war, grassland golf… Team up with brothers for PK, losers drink milk tea as penalty! 5. Horse riding to the hilltop 100 RMB for 2 km is enough to warm up, for more fun choose the 300 RMB option! Ride to the hilltop to overlook the entire resort and border grassland, when the wind blows the horse’s mane for videos, it’s handsome enough to be your phone wallpaper~ 🌙 Night atmosphere to the fullest 6. Equestrian show + bonfire party Watch professional riders show off skills at 3 p.m., jumps and side riding give you goosebumps! At night, toast with herdsman brothers around the bonfire, with horsehead fiddle and throat singing playing, jumping to the rhythm is super relieving~ 7. Pet animals + visit the pasture Near the Mongolian yurt grassland there are fine horses, camels, cattle and sheep herds, at the dairy farm you can see cows up close and even hold little lambs for photos (even tough guys have a gentle side~) 8. Stock up on specialties as souvenirs Beef jerky is a must-buy! Made by herdsmen themselves, super authentic and addictive, but can’t be shipped, only show off on site or bring back for your brothers~

❤️Hi, I'm Bao Gongzi, discovering urban hidden gems 🌿Put on a Mongolian robe and become a child of the grasslands for a day 🌿At Wulagai Grassland, I surprisingly found a resort like a paradise 🌿Here, you're immersed in border pastures, rivers, and lakes near Mongolia 🌿Stay in yurts, wear Mongolian robes, ride horses, shoot arrows, watch performances, etc. 🌿Also tasted authentic Mongolian herder cuisine 🌿This trip to Inner Mongolia finally let me experience the life of a horseback herder . — 📍Location: Ulanhad Grassland Resort . 🚙Address: 20 meters north of the Ulanhad Gacha Party-Mass Service Center, County Road 502, Wulagai Management Area, Dongwu Banner . 🏡【Accommodation】 I stayed in a yurt at the resort with a private bathroom. I visited in July during summer, but nights on the grassland are cold - thankfully each room has electric blankets. There are also panoramic luxury space capsules available (which I didn't choose). ⚠️Dawn comes early here - remember to bring an eye mask . ✅Travel tips 1⃣️I arrived in the afternoon and was pleasantly surprised by the ceremonial welcome - high-standard horse dismounting liquor, hada scarf presentation, and mounted welcoming team ⚠️Best to ask about the exact time for the welcome ceremony . 2⃣️I wore Mongolian robes for photos. The resort offers many free Mongolian costumes to choose from (no deposit required, operating on trust!). 💰Rental: 50 yuan. More elaborate costumes are in the rental section (paid options are definitely more beautiful) . 3⃣️Watched professional equestrian performances by jockeys ⏰Time: One show at 3pm daily . 4⃣️Experienced the paid off-road vehicle adventure deep into uninhabited pastoral areas - the "Grassland at Sky's Edge" is breathtaking with flower-filled mountains and many marmots . 5⃣️Many free activities: Herder family visits, riding lele carts, seeing sika deer, holding lambs for photos, milking cows, DIY kite flying, archery, tug-of-war, grassland golf, etc. . 6⃣️Horse riding 💰100 yuan for 2km. Recommend the 300 yuan option that takes you up distant slopes with panoramic views of the resort and mountain scenery . 7⃣️At night, joined the lively Mongolian music bonfire party (must-attend!) - singing and dancing with Mongolian performers while enjoying morin khuur, throat singing, long songs, and folk performances . 8⃣️Bought many local products (priced similarly to supermarkets). The air-dried beef made by herders is incredibly fragrant and authentic (though unavailable for mailing) . 9⃣️About 200m from the yurts is a pasture with many fine horses, camels, cattle and sheep . 🔟Restaurant available for à la carte dining . 1⃣️1⃣️The dairy farm and lamb-holding photo spots are very photogenic ·
