Hohhot Travel.. Bao'erhan Pagoda
Bao'erhan Pagoda is a majestic Buddhist pagoda towering in the middle of Yuquan Park in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia. It is located near the intersection of Ordos Street and Danan Street, facing Guanyin Temple across the road. This pagoda is a project completed through heartfelt donations from the public starting in 2006, and it stands as an important symbol of Hohhot's faith and tradition. The role of Lama Longda Danzen Longbo in the construction of Bao'erhan Pagoda is very impressive. He was deeply involved in every process from site selection to design and construction, infusing the pagoda with his religious wisdom and beliefs. Standing at 81.6 meters tall, the pagoda seems to emit a sacred aura towards the sky, instilling awe and peace in those who gaze upon it within the park. The opening ceremony of the completed Bao'erhan Pagoda on February 14, 2008, was an unforgettable moment. At this event, Lama Longda Danzen Longbo donated precious relics of Shakyamuni Buddha, ten Arhat relics, and valuable scriptures and statues that he had cherished for decades, further enhancing the spiritual value and significance of the pagoda. With these sacred relics enshrined within, Bao'erhan Pagoda has become more than just a structure; it has established itself as the spiritual center of Hohhot, offering enlightenment and tranquility to many.

Inner Mong
Inner Mongolia is definitely a worthwhile trip. I went during the Labor Day Holiday with a tour group called Joy Tours, so it was easy to get around.
We went to Xilamuren Glasslands and even though the grass was not as green (due to the season), it was still very beautiful and refreshing see so yurts sitting on an endless landscape, blue skies and animals grazing the fields. We were greeted by the Mongolians with a white bowl of white wine (Báijiǔ) which we had to take a sip, and treated to lunch. We watched an equestrian show performed by Mongolians, then later rode a horse (very slowly) on the grasslands. There was a show and bon fire in the evening at our yurt accommodation. One of my favorite moments was being greeted by the millions of stars, and ended up stargazing for the rest of the night. We also visited the Kubuqi Desert which was lovely but very windy, and didn't get a lot of time to experience it. My partner and I then missioned alone to Ordos, and visited the "Ghost City", as well as Genghis Khan Mausoleum. The "Ghost City", to me, did not feel like a ghost city but rather a city that has potential to thrive in the future. The Genghis Khan Mausoleum was absolutely beautiful and his name is clearly still being honored by many. It was very interesting to see how two cultures still co-existed in this area: Chinese and Mongolians, although majority of the population were Chinese. Both languages were used and displayed on every sign. Mongolian culture is very interesting: different, yet has similarities to other cultures. I would have loved to experience more of it, and the best way to experience it, I think, is in the grasslands, or Mongolia itself.

📍Address:Hohhot Inner Mongolia
The Dinosaurs looked so real and i really enjoyed how realistic those taxidermy animals were. The dinosaurs were also really large and tall, And even some of the workers spoke English. The bad part about the museum is that the air conditioner wasn’t cold enough, I was sweating the whole time which was very hard to ignore.

5 Pagoda Temple in Hohhot 🇨🇳
#wecreate
This was our last day in Inner Monggolia and we just wanted to roam around and we bumped into this 5 Pagoda Temple. We decided to go in since there's no entrance fee. We really like the structure of the pagoda as the design and architecture is very detailed.
The Indian influence is quite visible and of course the Buddhist temples are more like Tibetan or Monggolian.
You do not need to spend a lot of time here. I suggest going straight to the pagoda and admire its intricate architecture.
Enjoy your Hohhot trip.
