Hohhot is a stop in Qingcheng worth making a special stop. For 2 days and 1 night, between Dazhao Temple and Saishang Old Street, you'll encounter the unique atmosphere of Hohhot.
The first impression of Hohhot almost always comes from Dazhao Temple. When it actually appears before your eyes, the imagination in the picture suddenly gains weight, and the journey officially begins from that moment.
When it comes to Hohhot, locals usually first mention Saishang Old Street. Only after experiencing it do you realize that landmarks are never isolated scenery, but the entrance to an entire section of life.
The grasslands hide another side of Hohhot. With less crowd from tourists and more daily warmth, you suddenly feel like you've briefly become one of these people.
If you have the energy, go visit the Zhaomiao Temple. There is no standard answer there, only your own rhythm, which fits your itinerary just right.
Hohhot taught me one thing: you don't have to chase every sight, just as Dazhao Temple taught me—the best scenery is always where you're willing to stop and look at it carefully.
