Beginning from the bustling developing capital of Ulaanbaatar, as the capital itself is an interesting sight like any other post soviet countries, you can see the soviet apartment blocks in one part but see thriving high glass tower’s on the other. But that’s not all, there’s the museums that tell the history of Mongols and Animals not to even mention the Dinosaur Fossils. And the Chinggis Khan Museum, Shaped like a giant silver ger, this architectural marvel houses a vast collection detailing Chinggis Khan's life and legacy. The standout feature is a colossal statue of the great conqueror on horseback, surrounded by multimedia displays. And the Zaisan hill, one of the best places to take picture for its panoramic view
Afterwards it’s time for the Gobi Region, one of the most sought after destinations. Known for its unique landscapes that change as you drive, from Vast Steppe to Golden Desert to Flaming Cliffs of Bayanzag to the Majestic Yol valley that houses many unique animals.
First off, Yol Valley . A geological masterpiece nestled amidst imposing cliffs. Despite its moniker, Yol, meaning "Vulture" in Mongolian, the valley is far from desolate. In winter, it transforms into an ice-cloaked wonderland, while summer unveils a verdant oasis, providing a stark contrast to the surrounding arid Gobi terrain.
Next, we traverse to Bayanzag, renowned as the Flaming Cliffs. The landscape, ablaze with red and orange hues, is not merely a visual spectacle but also a historical trove. It was here, in the 1920s, that the first fossilized dinosaur eggs were unearthed, opening a window into Mongolia's prehistoric past and establishing Bayanzag as a focal point for paleontological discoveries.
Our third and final destination of the Gobi Wonders are the Khongor Sand Dunes, a vast expanse of golden waves colloquially known as the Singing Sands. Beyond their aesthetic allure, these dunes exhibit a unique acoustic phenomenon. As the wind whispers through the grains, it produces a melodic hum, creating an auditory symphony amidst the serene desert landscape.
Karakorum, the once-mighty capital of the Mongol Empire. Picture this: nomadic Mongols, who were always on the move, decided to put down roots and create a city. Explore its history with Karakorum Museum & Discover Erdene Zuu Monastery, which is still active monastery even after the purge during communist era.
Our Odyssey is sure to have it all, and if we don’t its always modifiable so please, don’t hesitate to contact our agents to help you find what you’re looking for!
