General presentation
Hulunbuir and Ergun
Prairies, wetlands and Mongolian, daur and Russian heritage spread around Hailar and the Ergun River.
The discovery of Hulunbuir and Ergun is based around the Hulunbuir Prairies, Ergun Wetland and Hulunbuir Ethnographic Museum. The stay thus alternates between urban life, the countryside, wetlands and natural areas, giving a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. The main sites are generally easy to access.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Nature and landscape
Hulunbuir Prairies
Hulunbuir offers huge pastures punctuated with rivers, herds and lakes under a particularly large sky. The circuits cover long distances; choosing limited rural stages avoids reducing the area to organized shows.
Place indismissible
Ergun Wetland
Ergun's wetland draws meanders, dead arms and floodplains at the foot of the city of the same name. Bridges and viewpoints dominate the whole, very colorful in autumn but exposed to the wind.
Museum
Ethnographic Museum of Hulunbuir
The museum of Hailar presents the archaeology of steppes and Mongolian, daur, evenk and orochen cultures of the region. Its collections avoid approaching local communities only through tourist camps.
