Thousands of wrestlers, breathtaking equestrian performances, traditional Mongolian dance and music and the legendary "Three Manly Games" – Bökh (Mongolian wrestling), horse racing and archery – are among the highlights of the 36th Naadam Festival in Xilinhot, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The annual festival offers visitors an immersive experience of Mongolian traditions and nomadic culture while attracting travelers from around the world to the region's vast grasslands.
