The best times to visit Inner Mongolia is between June and Early October, when the grasslands are lush and the weather is pleasantly cool.
Naadam Fairs are a major highlight, offering authentic competitions and a spectacular grassland experience. Starting in July, they will be held in various locations in Inner Mongolia. The top three events are in:
- Xilinhot City's Fengqing Garden (July 13)
- Baotou City's Bailing Temple (July 19)
- Gegentala Grassland (early August)
If you miss the festival ceremonies, you can still enjoy horseback riding and archery performances on the grasslands at other times.
Moreover, there is much more for your exploration: unique volcanoes, endless deserts, ethnic culture, the legacy of Genghis Khan and his Mongol Empire...

Amazing and Effortless Experience Overall!
China Highlights is totally legit and they planned our visit in Beijing perfectly, they were also great with being flexible to meet our unique needs and timelines, with multiple changes on the fly. Our guide in Beijing, William, was amazing as well! William was friendly, kind, thoughtful, funny, and also was great at keeping us on track timing-wise (as we didn’t make this particularly easy for him lol). Cannot recommend both China Highlights and William to anyone else looking to visit China for the first time! more

A culture of hospitality and smiles
Beijing was prettier and far less crowded than anticipated. Colin aka Po Po, our guide, enhanced the experience with his knowledge and wicked sense of humour. He made every moment special for us.We spent about three days in Beijing and surrounds. China highlights offerings were high quality, including accomodation, car, driver, guide and selection of real local restaurants. Being vegetarian wasn’t an issue at all. Visiting historical quarter of Beijing along with Hutong walk and Confucius Beijing temple were unique experiences- which became more special with Colin’s interest in philosophy and wonderful global perspective. Despite language barriers- we were greeted by scores of locals with genuine smile and curiosity. We shall be back (hopefully with Colin) to explore this wonderful culture. more
