Discover some of Inner Mongolia’s wildest corners. The unique geographical location of Hexingten National Geopark has created a magical natural landscape, including the formation of “ice stone forest” and Hunshandake Sandy Land in the last century.
The cross-country journey takes you through the unusual road, visiting the vast grassland of Saihanba Wulan Butong, the alien-like landscape of Ulanda Volcano before ending at a dreamy resort for photography lovers.
