🌋 Volcano Geopark in INNER MONGOLIA

Covering an area of about 65km, these amazing volcanoes can be found during your trip to Inner Mongolia. Visiting the Wulanhada Geopark is completely free and you can choose to walk around the volcanoes or drive to several of them throughout the day (recommended). More than 30 volcanoes here are distributed like a string of beads on the grassland, and the flat terrain shows off the shape of the volcanoes perfectly. Because of its unique volcanic geology and landform, this unique "volcanic grassland", is known as the "natural volcano museum", and definitely worth a visit. But out of the 30, there are 8 main volcanoes to see and climb. are arranged from northeast to southwest respectively, with a total distance of about 10 kilometers. The big ones are Volcano No.3️⃣ to Volcano No.8️⃣. The No.3 Volcano is half mined, and the whole volcano shows a huge gap, with a plank road to the volcano top; The No.4 Volcano was thoroughly excavated and a volcano museum was built on the original site; The No.5 Volcano is the most complete one, with a perfectly preserved central eruption volcanic shape. The slope of the No.6 Volcano was all hollowed out, leaving only a core in the middle. The No.7 and No.8 volcanoes are cone-shaped. 💥BONUS: pretend you’re in Mars! Yeap, just like my cover picture shows, Chinese had the amazing business idea to set up several trucks that provide astronaut suits 👩‍🚀 for rental! It costs ¥80 for an hour, but you can haggle the price (I paid 50). You can also have professional photographers take your picture there and they can give you smoke bombs to hold 😂 it’s really quite a hilarious scene, but a fun, unique, and tacky experience that you will only get in China! 📝 Sidenote: don’t let the pictures fool you. The climbs to the top of the volcanoes are *intense*. Somer are very steep on the way up and super slippery on the way down. Definitely a challenge! #thisischina #volcanoes #innermongolia
