Daqi

Situated in the South West of Inner Mongolia, Dalateqi is a quiet, scenic town with an estimated population of only about 340 000 people. Overall the city is very compact and walking to wherever you need to go is very doable, although there are a host of taxis and buses, which will get you where you need to go pretty cheaply. Travelling to cities outside of Dalate qi is also very convenient. Due to its geographic position midway between Dongsheng and Baotou buses leave every half hour or so for both cities (Baotou and Dongsheng) along the National Highway 210. The Baoshen Railway also connects the city to the rest of Northern China.

Hohhot Aston

Hohhot occasionally spelled Huhehot or Huhhot, is the capital city of the Inner Mongolian Autonomous Region in the People's Republic of China. The name "Hohhot" is Mongolian for "Blue City".

A significant amount of the city's population belongs to mixed ethnic origins, although many Mongolians, fluent in Mandarin, have kept their ancestral language alive.

Hohhot is one of the major tourist destinations of Inner Mongolia with the Dazhao Temple, the 5-Pagoda temple, and the ZhaoJun Tomb all high on the list of places to visit. However having visited many historic sites and climbed several famous mountains, you may be eager to experience Inner Mongolia’s grassland life. Thus, Xilamuren or Gegentula Grasslands would be a good choice of places to visit.
