Green Lung of the Steel City | Here, the wind seems to have a shape.
Saihantala means "beautiful grassland" in Mongolian. Walking through it, the endless green sea and blue sky and white clouds together form a beautiful and harmonious picture.
As the green lung of the steel city, Saihantala Urban Grassland covers an area of over 10,000 mu, forming a sharp contrast with the high-rise buildings on the edge of the city. It seems to be in two completely different worlds. This encounter in the city has a sense of confusion and makes people feel open-minded.
The sky is blue and the water is clear, the trees are lush and the grass is abundant, and the reeds reflect the flowing clouds, which are interesting with the Mongolian bags. The breeze blew, blowing the corners of the pedestrians, blowing the branches of the trees, blowing all the leaves.
Like a sea wave, quiet and peaceful, the wind here also has a shape. The magnificence of nature and the vitality of life are infinitely yearning.

Saihan Tala, an urban grassland
Saihan Tala, which means beautiful grassland in Mongolian, is the largest urban grassland in China and a well-known grassland tourist attraction in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, also known as Saihan Tala Ecopark.
📍Detailed address:
Geographical location: Located in the central part of Baotou city, it is the only urban wetland grassland in Baotou and the only urban grassland in China.
🌟Highlights:
Historical background: Saihan Tala was originally formed by the erosion of Shimen Water. As Shimen Water shifted westward, a large wetland was formed in the low-lying areas that the river used to flow through, which is the Saihan Tala wetland. During the Ming Dynasty, Saihan Tala became the grazing land for the Urad tribe. In 1956, the eastern part of the original Urad territory was divided into the Qingshan and Kundulun districts of Baotou city, with Saihan Tala grassland located between Qingshan and Donghe districts, transforming from a suburban grassland to an urban grassland. In 1985, the Baotou Municipal People's Government decided to designate this area as a public green space. In 1994, the Baotou Municipal People's Congress made the 'Decision on the Construction of Saihan Tala Park'. In 2018, the Baotou Municipal People's Government expanded the Saihan Tala wetland and its surroundings into a nationally famous urban grassland of ten thousand acres.

Gujiu, now known as Baotou!
This small border town is actually the second largest city in Inner Mongolia. The cost of living here is very low, the residents are friendly, and the elderly will even tell me where to go for fun. I went to the Yellow River Ballad to see the Yellow River, to the Saihan Tala Grassland to see the grasslands and steeds, and to the Baotou Museum to learn about the history of Baotou. Baotou, formerly known as Jiuyuan, is also the hometown of Lü Bu, a famous historical figure. Baotou is a city with a rich cultural heritage. There are many temples here that are worth visiting, but I was worried about the inconvenience of transportation and the time-consuming travel, so I didn't go. Friends who drive themselves might consider visiting Meidai Temple, Wudang Temple, as well as Hasuhai and Cilechuan, all of which are great places!
