Starred travel destination✨:In-depth travel guide to Bayanbulak Grassland (May 2026 edition)
I. Why choose Bayanbulak? Three irreplaceable travel values
[Natural Wonder] “Nine Suns” on the Meandering River
The Kaidu River winds across the grassland, forming a 13-kilometer-long river channel. Every year from May to October during sunset, sunlight reflects off the river surface to create the spectacle of nine suns mirrored on the water. According to 2026 scenic area data, the excellent observation point at Brazilik Viewing Platform has upgraded its windproof facilities and now offers professional photography guide services.
[Ecological Wonderland] Swan Lake Nature Reserve
As China’s first swan nature reserve, over 20 migratory bird species including whooper swans and grey cranes can be observed in May 2026. The scenic area specially offers a “birdwatching research route” equipped with high-powered telescopes and bird identification manuals.
[Cultural Experience] Nomadic life of various ethnic groups
Participate in traditional labor activities like milking cows and churning butter. In 2026, a new “Nadam Culture Experience Day” will be added, with small-scale horse racing and wrestling events held every Saturday at the scenic area’s pasture (subject to daily announcements).
