The tourism project is aimed at raising locals out of poverty. From June 6 to 13, an investigative group consisting of several travel agencies organized by the Changsha County Tourism Bureau carried out a study in a dozen scenic spots in Horqin Right Wing Middle Banner.
The group agreed that the city in North China has an abundance of tourism resources, ranging from grasslands and forests to architecture, and is very appealing to tourists from South China, offering them an experience unique to North China.
According to the tourism bureau, the proposed tourism route will attract a large number of visitors hoping to experience unique Mongolian folk customs to Horqin during the summer, and will also promote local tourism.
