6. It is better for you not to drink during lunch in case your plans for the afternoon are spoiled. Eat some dishes before you drink. Mongolian milk tea is also useful for dispelling the effects of alcohol.

7. Make sure you drink enough water when traveling in the city as the air there is dry. Sun cream is a must to protect from you from the strong sunshine. It is also suggested you to take mosquito repellent to keep those grassland pests at bay.

8. Take a coat with you to avoid catching a cold due to the obvious temperature variations. Be sure you take your good shoes if you want to go hiking on the vast desert and grasslands.

9. The grasslands, the desert and the Mausoleum of Genghis Khan are the three must-see places. It is a wise choice to avoid visiting the mausoleum on the day of the Spring Chagansuluke Ceremony, which usually falls from March 17 to 24 in the lunar calendar, if you don’t want to be squeezed into crowds of hundreds of thousands of people who swarm the mausoleum at that time.

10. You need to circle clockwise around aobao, which means “a pile of stones” in Mongolian and is deemed a place for sacrificial offerings where locals pray to the mountains, spirits and their ancestors. Women are not allowed to go near some of the large aobao, so inquire about this before your enter.

11. One of the most highly recommended prairies in Ordos is Subohan Prairie, which is very close to the urban areas. A live show of an Ordos wedding ceremony is staged every day in the prairie.
