Mongolian people are not lonely in winter. People who don't feel their life think that herdsmen can't come out of their homes.

Due to the open grassland, if there is wind, the winter is even colder, so their clothes in winter are thick, so that they can resist the wind and keep warm.

Traditional Mongolian costumes include Mongolian robes, jewelry, belts, hats and boots. Women also wear headwear. However, they usually dress casually. Some people also wear down clothes. They only wear formal clothes in some serious occasions, and they wear very exquisite clothes. Mongolian people believe that wearing Mongolian robes is a very serious thing, which is respect for others.

Second, there is no need to graze in winter. It's idle. Mongolians also like to play. But what they play is not the same as us. They often gather in the yurts and play a traditional Mongolian game of tangaracha around the stove.

Gala difference is made of sheep's kneecap bone. It can be bounced out with chopsticks to hit Gala difference of opposite players. The score is different with different hitting surfaces. In the end, whoever has a high score will win the game.

In Japan, many people like sumo. Sumo dance, which was called "Su dance" in ancient times, originated in China. It was introduced into Japan in Tang Dynasty. It was bared and wrestled by two Hercules. It was very similar to the wrestling of Mongolian people in China. Wuzhumuqin grassland in the east of Xilinguole League is the cradle of wrestling. Many famous wrestlers come to the world arena from here. In winter, men prefer to meet several people to fall on the grassland or organize some competitions.

Fourth, Mongolian people love horse head Qin. Don't think that the strong and powerful Mongolian men can only wrestle and race. They also prefer a musical instrument, horse head Qin. In Inner Mongolia, when entering the yurts, the way they greet the guests must be melodious. This is a kind of elegant entertainment way of Mongolian people in winter.

It is said that the origin of the horse head Qin is that a herdsman missed his pony, took its leg bone as the pillar and tail hair as the bowstring, and engraved the shape of the pony on the top of the handle, thus making the horse head Qin.

In Xilingol, horse head Qin is not only for herdsmen to play, but also for Qi baoligo international horse head Qin college. This is the only institution of higher learning majoring in horse head instrument in China. The college has majors in horse head instrument performance, horse head instrument production, piano debugging and so on, and has trained many excellent students.

Fifthly, to say that Mongolian people live and eat in winter. It's their daily life to drink milk tea and eat beef and mutton. In winter, it's snowy outside. The first thing they do in the morning is to cook a pot of steaming milk tea on the fire, which is necessary for them to entertain guests.
