Heishantou Town & Ancient City Ruins
黑山头（古城遗址·弘吉剌部落）
A grassland town on the China–Russia border river, with a Mongol-Yuan era ancient city ruin, a Mongol tribal camp and the Heishantou border crossing.
Heishantou town lies southwest of Ergun city, where the Genhe River meets the Ergun River, facing Russia across the water. On the outskirts stand the ruins of the Heishantou ancient city from the Mongol-Yuan period, said to be the fief city of Hasar, a younger brother of Genghis Khan. On the grassland, the Hongjirat Mongol camp offers horse riding, yurt accommodation, bonfire evenings and ethnic song and dance. The Heishantou border crossing is nearby. It is about 1 hour's drive from Labudalin along National Highway 331, through grassland and river scenery, so self-driving is most convenient. Most camp activities are paid, with prices set on site.
