Inner Mongolia tour provides travelers with a winter wonderland

Northern Inner Mongolia autonomous region has launched 10 winter routes in a bid to satisfy the nation's growing appetite for fun in the snow and ice. The autonomous region is fortunate in its makeup that it can gather practically every possible winter scenario, with its vast frozen grassland, far-reaching mountain ranges and hot springs. The rivers, lakes, desert and forests all make for a distinctive winter landscape, while folk celebrations, such as the Nadam fair, winter carnivals and winter fishing, promise to add spice to travelers' experiences.
