| Bashang Grassland |
 |
The Bashang Grassland is 280 kilometers north of Beijing. The special
climate and the geographical position on the junction of the North
China Plain and the Inner Mongolia Grassland give Bashang its unique
natural landscapes and make it a popular destination for tourists
and photographers.
With a mean temperature much lower than that of Beijing, the Bashang
Grassland is an ideal place to escape the summer heat. The period
from May through November is the best time to visit, and as early
as October, visitors may have a chance to admire scenery in the
snow.
In recent years, tourism in Bashang has flourished and many special
activities for tourists have been established there. It is inexpensive
and interesting to stay at farmers' homes-eating roast whole sheep
and other plain food, chatting with farmers, and sleeping on heated
brick beds.
Besides the charm of Bashang, visitors coming from Beijing can
enjoy the beautiful scenery during the six-hour drive along mountain
highways and relax at restaurants run by farmers. Photography buffs
can stop to take photos. |
