Shimen Scenic Area
Baotou enjoys pleasant weather in autumn, making it the perfect time to stroll along the 469-meter dam of the Shimen Scenic Area and take in the stunning views of the distant green mountains.
Shimen Scenic Area is located in the valley between Daqing Mountain and Wula Mountain. Here the towering mountains and rugged peaks appear endless.
Rafting, rowing boats, karting and other activities provide a variety of leisure and entertainment options around the city.
