No. 5: Kangxi Grassland (康西草原)

Kangxi Grassland, situated to the west of Badaling Great Wall, is about 80 kilometers away from downtown. Covering an area of about 22 square kilometers, it is the largest grassland in Beijing. With Guanting Reservoir to the west and Haituo Mountain to the north, the grassland is a wonderful place for people to go out and get some fresh air. Besides enjoy the moonlight, there are various interesting activities you can try out in the grassland, including horse riding, camel riding, boating, fishing and skating. Visitors can also have a taste of Mongolian lifestyle, complete with a night's stay in a yurt, Mongolian song and dance, milk tea, airag (a fermented milk drink), Mongolian cheese and roast rabbit and goat.
