Suiyuan (simplified Chinese: 绥远; traditional Chinese: 綏遠; pinyin: Suíyuǎn) was a historical province of China. Suiyuan's capital was Guisui (now Hohhot). The abbreviation was 綏 (pinyin: suí). The area Suiyuan covered is approximated today by the prefecture-level cities of Hohhot, Baotou, Wuhai, Ordos, Bayan Nur, and parts of Ulaan Chab, all part of Inner Mongolia. Suiyuan was established by the Republic of China. It became a part of the puppet state of Mengjiang from 1937 to 1945 under Japanese rule. Under the People's Republic of China, Suiyuan became a part of Inner Mongolia in 1954. The province was named after a district in the capital established in the Qing Dynasty.
