Beginning of the Mongolia journey

Erdene Zuu Monastery - Spanning a vast area, this monastery is one of the largest in Mongolia. It is a mostly intact Mongolian (Tibetan) Buddhist monastery, with particularly noteworthy wall paintings in the Western and Eastern Temples. A short walk from the rear leads to the famous tortoise and the site of Karakoram (though there’s really nothing left to see). Given its distance from Ulaanbaatar, it’s best to combine a visit with other nearby attractions. This monastery dates back to 1585, built from the ruins of Genghis Khan’s ancient capital. Today, it remains an active monastery. It’s a remarkable experience to be there in time to hear the soothing chant of the Head Priest, who attracts a large number of devotees.

The moment he began the chant, everyone seemed to enter a meditative state, swaying their bodies in rhythm with the chant.

One should visit this monastery and try to synchronize their visit with the chant timing.

History and Nature Attraction

Kharkhorin - A great introduction to the history of Mongolia. The top two floors are particularly interesting, showcasing a beautiful array of national costumes. The only drawback is the lack of English information. An English-speaking guide would enhance the experience. This place is packed with knowledge, offering information on anything you could possibly want to know about Mongolia, its culture, history, and heritage. It is very well organized, with numerous exhibitions and displays. Traditional clothing, ger culture, the history of Mongolia through the ages, the path to democracy, musical instruments, everyday accessories, and much more. Definitely recommended to visit!

Elsen Tasarkhai - Known as Elsen Tasarkhai, these are the only sand dunes found between Kharkhorin and Ulaanbaatar. Here, you can experience what the Gobi Desert might be like. It features a unique and beautiful landscape of lakes, rocky mountains, and sand dunes.

Leaving back to the city

Hustai National Park - Hustai National Park offers an unforgettable experience deserving of a solid five-star rating. The park’s stunning natural beauty and the impressive display of wildlife, particularly the Przewalski’s horses, make the trip a phenomenal adventure.

A highlight of Hustai National Park is undoubtedly the opportunity to see Przewalski’s horses in their natural habitat. This endangered species of wild horse, preserved and protected in the park, is a sight to behold. Observing these majestic animals roam freely in the wilderness is a humbling and awe-inspiring experience. Here, you can spot many herds of wild horses, known as takhis. The park is managed by an NGO, and the arrangement is very effective.

Beyond the captivating wildlife, the natural landscape of the park itself is breathtakingly beautiful. The rolling hills, dotted with various flora, offer a serene and tranquil environment that makes you feel at one with nature.
