Sited on the junction of the Mongolian Plateau, the Inner Mongolia Grasslands, and the North China Plain, Bashang is a photogenic place of beauty with a cool climate and an interesting history.
With an average height of more than 1,300 metres above sea level, the grasslands on the plateau are higher than many of the mountains we hike while in Beijing. With temperatures expected to be around 20°C during the daytime – about 10°C less than the expected temperatures in Beijing for the time of year that we will be visiting.

With an average height of more than 1,300 metres above sea level, the grasslands on the plateau are higher than many of the mountains we hike while in Beijing. This means that the temperature is lower than that of Beijing: freezing cold in winter, but cool and refreshing in summer, with temperatures expected to be around 20°C during the daytime – about 10°C less than the expected temperatures in Beijing for the time of year that we will be visiting.
