Did you know this fact?

Mongolia, the world’s second-largest landlocked country, covers roughly 1.6 million square kilometers. Despite its vast expanse, it has a population of only about 3.3 million people, leading to one of the lowest population densities globally. Additionally, Mongolia is known for its nomadic culture, with traditional Mongolian dwellings called “ger” (or “yurt” in Russian) serving as portable homes for herders across the vast steppes.

About Mongolia

Many recognize Mongolia as a nation of 3 million people nestled between two giants, Russia and China. Some associate it with the Mongol Empire, led by Chingis Khan, which once ruled a quarter of the globe. Others have heard of it as the ‘Emptiest Country in the World’ due to its vast landscapes and the rumor that 99.7 percent of Mongolian landscape is empty. However, the emptiest country in the world is full of life. Let us give you a glimpse of one of the most unexplored places on Earth:

One-third of Mongolia’s population still embraces the nomadic lifestyle, moving at least four times a year to follow their herds and maintain traditions dating back thousands of years. These nomads, such as the ‘Reindeer people’ who live in the middle of deep forests with reindeers, or nomads like Eagle Hunters whose best friends are eagles, showcase the diversity of life. Meanwhile, two-thirds of the population lives in a modernized manner, with a median age of 26. Religiously diverse, we primarily believe in Buddhism and Shamanism, but as a democratic country, we accept all religions.
When it comes to nature, Mongolia is an all-in-one travel destination, ranking 19th by landscape size. Whether you fancy the allure of Hawaii, the opulence of Dubai, the picturesque landscapes of Switzerland and Iceland, or even the mystique of Mars, Mongolia can provide similar views and experiences with its diverse range of landscapes. From big mountain ranges, crystal blue oceans, the birthplace of Chingis Khan, old sea bottoms turned into colorful cliffs, beautiful waterfalls, big sand dunes, and hot springs with healing powers, to ice caves, deep forests, and endless steppes stretching for hundreds of miles…

Mongolia offers adventure, solitude, a contrast between ancient nomadic life and modernity, or simply a connection with nature.

Flaming Cliffs

The Gobi Desert, with rock formations dating back over 70 million years, hosts the world's richest collection of dinosaur remains. The Flamming cliff is richest in fossil findings and made famous in the 1920s by American explorer and palaeontologist called Roy Chapman Andrews who discovered the first-known fossil dinosaur egss. Beyond its renown, the Flaming Cliffs boast a dry, windy atmosphere, with reddish hues that lend an otherworldly vibe.

Taiga

Spanning the borders of Russia and Mongolia, the Taiga comprises the Siberian forest, home to a unique group of people living alongside reindeer. These 'Reindeer People' live within the deep Taiga forest, accessible only by horse or reindeer. With only about 500 Tsaatan individuals in Mongolia, encountering their way of life often evokes the feeling from a fairy tale or cinematic scene. In taiga forest, time seems to slow down, offering a blessedly peaceful separation from the world. Tourists can try herding reindeer or engage in milking and playing with them.

Khuvsgul Lake

The blue, the fresh, the ever-free! Where the land meets the sky! Purest lake in Mongolia, Khuvsgul Lake, also known as the "Blue Pearl." Surrounded by forests, mountains, and meadows, this volcanic lake spans 136 km in length, 36 km in width, and plunges to a depth of 262 m, ranking among the world's freshest water bodies. Holding 70% of Mongolia's freshwater and 1-2% of the world's freshwater, it offers remarkable transparency akin to the blue Caribbean lakes. Visitor can engage in boating, swimming, fishing, and in winter, partake in winter sports and ice festivals

Khongor Dunes

One of the few sand dunes in the world that gets covered by snow in the winter! As the largest sand dune in Mongolia, the Khongor Dunes stretch over 180 km and can reach widths of 27 kilometers. Alongside the dunes flows the Khongoryn River, giving birth to oases along its banks. Camels serve as the sole mode of transport in the dune, rewarding climbers with breathtaking views from the top.

Harhorin

Once a center of the world, Harhorin is a old capital of Mongol empire, when Mongolians were most powerful. Famous silk road was crossing the Harhorin and it was the most multicultural city in the world at that time. Today, Harhorin stands as a small town located in the UNESCO World Heritage Orkhon Valley, preserving remnants of its glorious past. Visitors can explore ancient ruins, including the Erdenzuu Monastery, try in meditation, traditional costumes, and immerse themselves in traditional music, dances, and arts.

Altai Tavan Bodg

Altai Tavan Bogd, tracing the border of Western Mongolia with China and Russia, is the greatest attraction in Western Mongolia. Featuring picturesque valleys, alpine lakes, rivers, glaciers, and Mongolia's highest peaks, the park offers a paradise for trekkers, mountaineers, and wildlife enthusiasts alike. Adding to its beauty is the opportunity to immerse oneself in Kazakh culture, witnessing the ancient art of eagle hunting and exploring archaeological sites such as petroglyphs and burial mounds.

Terkh Lake National Park

Spanning 773 sq km, Terkh Lake National Park is famed for its freshwater gem, Terkhiin Tsagaan Nuur (Great White Lake), and the striking Khorgo Uul volcano. Shaped by volcanic activity, the area showcases volcanic craters, lava stones, and other geological marvels. Visitors can unwind by the lake, embark on hikes, or enjoy horseback riding amid the forested mountains

Terelj Lake National Park

Located a one-hour drive from the capital city, Ulaanbaatar, Terelj National Park is colorful and with magnificent alpine scenery. The park's area is incredibly impressive, featuring massive rock formations, valleys and hills, rivers and forest. This makes it one of the most popular destinations for both locals and tourists alike. Common attractions for travelers, such as the Ariyabal Meditation Center, Tsonjin Boldog Complex, and the 13th-century complex, are all situated near or within the park. Visitors can engage in various activities.
