Daihai Lake
岱海
An inland lake between Manhan Mountain and Matou Mountain in Liangcheng County, with a hot-spring resort and ski slope on its shores. It is a holiday base in Ulanqab.
Daihai Lake lies in Liangcheng County, ringed by mountains. It is one of the larger inland lakes in Inner Mongolia. Its water surface has shrunk somewhat in recent years, but the scenery remains lovely. Along the shore are the Daihai Hot Spring Resort, a lakeside boardwalk and birdwatching points, and in winter a ski slope is nearby. It is about 80 km from Jining and about 120 km from Hohhot, and self-driving is the most convenient option. It suits a half-day or full-day leisure trip, and hot-spring prices vary by hotel. The lake is a protected area, so please do not enter the water without permission.
