One
of the remotest regions on Earth is within your grasp as you travel through
Mongolia's heartland and into the far western lands on the border with Siberia
- a realm of incredible natural beauty and a diversity of ethnic peoples.
The most distinct and famous are the Kazakh who preserve their centuries
old traditions, including that of eagle hunting.
Explore
the natural and cultural wonders of Mongolia, one of the last remaining
wilderness frontiers. Mongolia offers a rare glimpse of an ancient nomadic
culture that has changed little over the centuries combined with stunning
natural beauty - alpine lakes, vast grasslands, forested mountains, volcanoes
and hotsprings - all abounding with wildlife.
Genghis Khan's 13th century capital is largely in ruins, but from its ruins the great monastery complex of Erdene Zuu was built. With restored religious freedom this, like the great temples of Ulaanbataar, is again attracting increasing numbers of monks and chapels are being restored.
The volcanic freshwater lake Terkhiin Tsagaan is one of the most beautiful lakes of the country – perfect (though cold) for swimming with stretches of sandy beach along its shoreline. Surrounded by extinct and craterous volcanoes it was formed by lava flows from a volcanic eruption many millennia ago.
Mongolia's
seismically active area stretches west into an area known as the Great Lakes
Depression, a renowned wetlands region for migratory birds and a Unesco
World Biosphere Reserve. Snow Leopards, wolves, fox, musk deer and ibex
are also protected in the National Parks and World Heritage Sites in the
area.
