It has continuously innovated cross-border tourism products and launched characteristic cultural and tourism activities such as the "Ten Thousand Miles Tea Road" cross-border tourism study tour between China, Russia, and Mongolia, the China Russia Mongolia International Ice and Snow Festival, and the China Russia Mongolia Mass Cultural and Art Season. These activities not only attract foreign tourists to experience, but also become a window for many domestic tourists to experience diverse cultures. In 2024, Inner Mongolia actively builds a cross-border self driving tour brand for the three lakes of China, Russia, and Mongolia. The cross-border "Blue Ice Journey" of the China Russia Mongolia Three Lakes Agreement, which departs from Manzhouli City, has emerged.
