Top Attractions in Inner Mongolia, China

Some people say that sunshine, fresh air and vast forests are one of the biggest draws for modern travelers. Luckily, Inner Mongolia, located in north China, contains all of these features. In addition to the famous Hulun Buir grasslands, there are numerous other impressive scenic and historic attractions located throughout the area for your China travel packages.
1. Mausoleum of Genghis Khan

The Genghis Khan Mausoleum is located in Ordos City. It was built by the Chinese government from 1954 to 1956. Featuring the traditional Mongolian style, the mausoleum is not the real burial place of the Khan because his burial site remains a mystery. It is just a cenotaph, where the coffin contains no body; there are only headdresses and accessories as decorations.
