Hinggan League boasts an ecological canvas of 60,000 square kilometers, with one-third grasslands, one-third forests, and one-tenth nature reserves intertwined, integrating hot springs, forest seas, and wetlands. Locally, the tourism model breaks the seasonal limitations of summer resorts with "spring flower viewing, summer heat avoidance, autumn maple watching, and winter snow play," rapidly expanding the visitor base from Northeast China to Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and the Yangtze River Delta, achieving all-region, all-season development.
With its unique border charm and volcanic landforms, Arxan is becoming a new favorite for young people's in-depth travel and travel photography, gaining viral popularity on social media. Here, tourists can not only stroll along the magnificent national border between China and Mongolia but also experience the rare natural wonder of volcanic hot springs merging with ice and snow. Notably, Arxan possesses a rare cross-border volcanic hot spring zone in China. Walking here, the mountains are covered with azaleas and exotic customs, making every travel photo a masterpiece. With the opening of the viewing season, Hinggan League is showcasing to the world a vibrant new cultural tourism landmark in northern China suitable for all seasons, embracing openness and a vision of cross-border cooperation.
