186彩带河
A river-bend scenic area on the northern grassland of Chen Barag Banner, where the river winds like a ribbon. Viewing platforms overlook the bends, and it is a popular stop on the Hailar to Ergun route.
The 186 Caidai River Scenic Area lies on the northern grassland of Chen Barag Banner, about 85 km from Hailar. Its name, meaning colourful ribbon, refers to the river that bends repeatedly across the grassland and shimmers like a ribbon in the sunlight. The area has viewing platforms, wooden boardwalks and electric tram routes overlooking river bends, ovoos and grazing livestock, along with grass sledding and horse riding. It pairs well with the Morgel River on the Hailar to Ergun route. It is seasonal, usually open June to September. Check ticket prices on site, and a hired car or self-drive is recommended.
