Ulanhot

Of the millions of foreign tourists expected to flood to China next year for the Beijing Olympics, many will likely want to venture beyond the usual well-traveled tracks -- and maybe to Ulanhot.[…]

This Inner Mongolian city even had its name changed from Wangyemiao in 1947 to mark its place in Communist history as the first seat of government of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Ulanhot means “red city” in Mongolian.
