New Hohhot park highlights traditions

Hohhot hopes to cash in on its historical legacy as a center of commerce and has revived its ancient trade hub as a new tourism zone.

Travelers hoping to understand the ancient legacy of what's today the capital of the Inner Mongolia autonomous region can visit the new Dashengkui Cultural Creativity Industrial Park.

Yuquan district's 8-hectare attraction vends items from its heyday along its commercial street in its south that's built according to period-style architecture. Visitors can also enjoy restaurants, coffeehouses, cross-talk performances and shows in a theater with 800 seats.
