It is usually seven or eight feet high and more than ten feet wide. First, wooden poles and cowhide are used to make several netted boxes, and then they are connected into a garden warehouse. Then make an umbrella-shaped garden roof out of wood. There is a circular skylight in the center of the roof to circulate air and absorb sunlight. It is the favorite daily necessities in grassland and pastoral areas, and it is also the most interesting accommodation for foreign tourists.
Sacrifice to Aobao: This is a traditional Mongolian religious activity. Aobao is built with stones, clods and wickers on grasslands, hillsides or sand dunes. "Aobao" was first built on the boundless grassland, as a sign to distinguish the direction, road and boundary, and later became a place to worship mountain gods and road gods. Most of the sacrifices to Aobao were held in July and August. At the time of sacrifice, there are tree strips on the Aobao, and colorful cloth strips or paper flags are hung on the tree.

The host poured the wine into a silver bowl or a gold cup, put it on the white Hada, and sang a touching toast song to express his sincerity and feelings. At this time, guests should immediately take the wine, drink it if they can, taste it if they can't, and then return it to the host. Don't pass the buck and refuse the host's toast, otherwise he will think that you look down on the host, don't want to make friends and can't be honest with each other.
