Hohhot is a city in north-central China and the capital of the Inner Mongolian Autonomous Region, serving as the region’s administrative, economic, and cultural centre. The city was founded by Mongol ruler Altan Khan in the late 16th century. It was chosen as the region’s administrative centre in 1952, replacing Ulanhot. A city with a rich cultural background, Hohhot is known for its historical sites and temples and is one of the major tourist destinations of Inner Mongolia.
It is also nationally known as the home of China’s dairy giants Mengniu and Yili, and was declared “Dairy Capital of China” by the China Dairy Industry Association and the Dairy Association of China in 2005. The name of the city in Mongolian means “Blue City.” The color blue in Mongolian culture is associated with the sky, eternity and purity; in Chinese, the name can be translated as Qīng Chéng, literally, “Blue/Green City.”
