The city of Chifeng is located in the southeastern part of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, in northern China. The name of the city derives from a mountain nearby that is called the Red Peak.

It is home of what is called the Red Peak cultural heritage and, it is home of the dragon for most of the locals. Archeologists believe human activity in the region can be traced back at least eight thousand years.

This is a land of rocks – in all shapes and sizes.

Around China, 11 July to 17 July, CCTV-4, at 20:10 Beijing Time.
