Inner Mongolia, Autonomous region in northern China

Inner Mongolia extends across 1.18 million square kilometers of grasslands, forests, and deserts between Mongolia and northern Chinese provinces.

The region became China's first autonomous region in 1947, marking a significant step in the nation's ethnic policy implementation.

The Naadam Festival in Inner Mongolia features traditional sports competitions including horse racing, wrestling, and archery throughout the summer months.

The region contains extensive deposits of rare earth elements, coal reserves, and natural gas fields, making it a major energy production center.

The Xilingol Grassland maintains a population of wild horses and supports traditional nomadic herding practices across its vast meadows.
