The tourist area of Genghis Khan Mausoleum takes Mausoleum Palace as the core and consists of "three areas", "two roads" and "eight scenic spots".
"Three Districts", namely "Cultural Relics Protection and Sightseeing Zone", takes the mausoleum and palace as the core and covers an area of 10 square kilometer; "Ecological Restoration and Protection Zone" is located on the outer layer of the core area, bounded by the land around Bayin Changhuge Grassland, covering an area of 20 square kilometers. In this area, the scene of "the sky is grey and wild, the wind blows the grass and the cattle and sheep are low" has really been realized. The periphery is a "visual landscape control area" with an area of 50 square kilometers.
"Two roads", that is, the 4-kilometer-long "Genghis Khan Holy Road" from the entrance of "Qizhuang He Shan" to Genghis Khan Mausoleum and the 16-kilometer-long "scenic road" surrounding Bayin Changhuge Grassland and connecting various scenic spots.

Dear friends, when you come to the tourist area of Genghis Khan Mausoleum, the first thing you see is the magnificent entrance landscape of "magnificent mountains and rivers". It consists of a 2 1m-high arched statue of Genghis Khan holding Sule Dema column, left and right 18m and 16m rock walls, three floors of 27 steps at the bottom, and a hilly wall connected to the mountain peak in the west. The main building of the city gate view is the epitome of Genghis Khan's great feat that shocked the world.
The avenue extending from the gate to the north is the sacred road and scenic road of Genghis Khan. We can visit various scenic spots along the auspicious sacred road and scenic road of Genghis Khan, and finally go to the mausoleum palace to pay homage to Genghis Khan's mausoleum.
Passing through the "magnificent mountains and rivers" is the spectacular "iron horse and gold account" group sculpture. Including 385 bottles of statues and 5 golden accounts, vividly reappears the scene of Genghis Khan leading the Mongolian army to go out with great momentum.
After watching the spectacular sculpture of "Iron Horse and Golden Account", we saw the map of Asia and Europe in the form of leisure square. The Asia-Europe Map Square covers an area of 65,438+00,000 square meters, with map viewing platforms at the four corners of the map and 65,438+03 flags on the east and west sides. The map square of Asia and Europe shows the territory from Mongolia to Yuan Dynasty in different colors, including China and the four great khanates across Asia and Europe. This is the largest territory in the history of China. On the stone walls at the four corners of the Asia-Europe map square, paintings with themes such as "national hope", "open land", "prosperous land" and "auspicious grassland" are carved respectively.
Next, we visited the Mongolian Museum of History and Culture, which was modeled after the Mongolian word Khan. The Museum of Mongolian History and Culture is divided into nine exhibition halls, displaying three parts: a long history, a heroic nation, a vast grassland, a magnificent culture and an immortal achievement and an eternal monument. These three parts highlight Mongolian social culture, Genghis Khan's great achievements and Ordos history and culture. There are 206-meter-long giant oil paintings and historical and cultural research institutions in the museum, making it a unique museum in the world dedicated to studying and displaying Mongolian history and culture.
Genghis Khan Central Square is located in the center of Genghis Khan Shengdao, which is the second highest point of the whole scenic spot. The steps around the square are composed of six platforms and steps, that is, there is a small platform on every six steps, which symbolizes the death of Genghis Khan, a great historical figure, at the age of 66. There are two tall monuments in the center of the square, which record Genghis Khan's military career and history that shocked the world. Dozens of tall sculptures stand between the pines and cypresses on both sides of the sacred road from the central square to the palace of Genghis Khan. These sculptures are statues of god beasts worshipped by Mongols and statues of generals of Genghis Khan. These statues are lifelike, as if they were the guards of Genghis Khan, standing majestically on both sides of the holy road, setting off the holy road solemnly.
The former site of Genghis Khan Mausoleum (800 Stone) is located on the north slope of Genghis Khan Central Square, and there is a white tower in the center of Shengdao, which is the symbol of the former site of Genghis Khan Mausoleum. When the mausoleum of Genghis Khan moved to Erdos, it turned out to be eight white felt bags, which were called "eight white rooms" in history. After the mausoleum of Genghis Khan was moved here from the south bank of the Yellow River in 1649, this ancient and magical place was called "Ejinhoro" (the tomb of the Lord). 1954, under the care of the central government, the mausoleum of Genghis Khan was built. 1956, the new mausoleum was completed, and eight white houses of Genghis Khan moved into the new mausoleum. In order to commemorate the 307-year-old site of Genghis Khan's Eight White Rooms, people built the White Pagoda and dedicated it.
