Roast Lamb Leg
Roast leg of lamb is a famous dish for Hulunbeier to entertain guests. Roast leg of lamb evolved from roast whole sheep. According to legend, hunting and nomadic people who live in the vast land in northern China often roast whole prey and eat whole sheep by bonfires. People gradually found that the best part of the whole sheep is the hind leg of the sheep, so they often cut off the hind leg of the sheep and roast it. Roasting sheep's hind legs alone is not only faster than roasting whole sheep, but also more delicious and convenient to eat. Roast leg of lamb gradually replaced roast whole sheep. After a long period of development, various ingredients and condiments were gradually added in the roasting process of leg of lamb, which made it integrate shape, color, taste and freshness, beautiful in color, fragrant in meat, tender inside, crisp but not greasy, and was known as "smell but not smell".
milk tea
It is a unique daily drink of Mongolian people, and the unique fragrance of milk tea permeates Mongolian yurts all the year round. Milk tea is boiled with brick tea and milk, and a little salt is added after boiling. When eating, it is usually accompanied by pasta such as cakes.
Stewed pork with brown sauce
Braised pork is a traditional food for nomadic people in Hulunbeier grassland for thousands of years, and it is also the most commonly used and favorite food for grassland herders. Hand-grabbed meat generally refers to mutton, which is eaten in a unique way. You don't use chopsticks, but grab food with your hands.
In addition to riding and whipping, tasting hand-roasted mutton is an essential project to visit the grassland. In people's minds, only in this way can we really reach the grassland, and there is no wasted journey.
Pass me the meat.
Handmade meat is a traditional food of Mongolian, Ewenki, Daur, Oroqen and other nomadic and hunting peoples in Hulunbeier grassland for thousands of years. That is, eating meat with your hands. The meat of domestic animals and wild animals such as sheep, cattle, horses and camels can be cooked by hand, but hand-grabbed meat usually refers to mutton.

"Oriental Myth" of Europeans —— Capital of Yuan Dynasty
More than 700 years ago, Mongolian aristocrats established a capital on the grassland, which was later the capital of the Yuan Dynasty-Yuanshangdu. After several expansions, Yuanshangdu gradually became the political, economic, military and cultural center of China and even the world at that time.
Every year from early summer to late autumn, the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty come here to enjoy the cool, hunt and handle government affairs, and envoys, princes and businessmen who come to pilgrimage gather here, making it an international metropolis that affects Asia and Europe. Kyle Poirot and his son were summoned by Kublai Khan here.
"Marco Polo Travels" records that "the capital was built by Kublai Khan, and the palace built with marble and all kinds of beautiful stones is exquisitely designed and luxuriously decorated, which is amazing. All the halls and rooms in the palace are gilded and beautifully decorated. " Therefore, the merchants of the Yuan Dynasty were called "Oriental Myth" by Europeans.
Chinese culture in the Central Plains and Mongolian culture in the north are perfectly combined here. The layout of the capital designed by the Han people is reasonable, the site selection is excellent and the garrison design is reasonable. An expert who specializes in the ruins of Shangdu in Yuan Dynasty said that its overall layout not only embodies the traditional urban layout concept of Han nationality, but also considers the characteristics of Mongolian nomadic life, so it is a grassland city with nomadic cultural characteristics.
Rare glacier stone forest
When the remaining veins of Daxing 'anling Mountains transited to the western grassland, magmatic activity, glacier movement and natural wind erosion finally formed a rare granite stone forest in the world-Ashatu granite stone forest in Hexigten Banner.
I haven't seen enough of the scenery composed of silver-white birch trees and patches of grass, and suddenly many stone pillars stand on the flat grass. Or in small groups, or alone. Lying on camels, arrows, tying horse posts and looking at the moon by women, the natural nature and the imagination of future generations have become various unique landscapes.
The stone forest here is made of hard granite, which looks like a thousand layers of cakes from a distance. Mortar is distributed at the top of the stone forest, which is the first discovery at home and abroad. While attracting many tourists, it has also become a rare scientific research material for studying the changes of paleogeology and paleogeomorphology.
People here say that we can often see wild roe deer, antelopes, deer and wolves now because there are few people and the forest area is large. After the rain, it is also interesting to pick mushrooms or look for wild antlers in the Woods. At the end of the speech, the local people pointed to the distant mountain and said that it was the famous Daxinganling Mountains.
Genghis Khan's "God-given Stone"
