By Annabelle Holman


If one loves travelling, then one country that he would really want to visit would be the exotic land of Mongolia which is a land known for its very rich culture. This is the land where the conqueror Genghis Khan created his Mongol empire. Now if one would want to visit this country, it is best if he would go on one of those Mongolian tours so that he will be brought to the best tourist spots there.

Now one of the first stops of the tour bus would be the famous city of Kharkhorin which is the heart of the Mongol empire. It was actually in this city that the great Genghis Khan controlled his entire empire and kept his troops. Now this place is where the ruins of his empire would stand which would make it a great sight for tourists.

Now if one would want a little bit of excitement, then he can go swimming in the famous Orkhon Khurkhree. This is the most famous waterfall in the country and is one of the cleanest water sources here. To make the trip here even more exciting, one will also get to see some of the natives who live in this area and may even communicate with them.

There would also be the vulture canyon which is the most popular land formation that is named Yolin Am. Now a lot of climbers and hikers would actually want to explore this place because it is very challenging to go through it. Now the tour guides would not allow the tour group to really trek through this land formation but they will bring them around the place so that they can see the sights.

If one is into wildlife and nature, then he will definitely enjoy going to the Bogdkhan Uul. This is a park that inhabits a lot of wild animals that hunters are not allowed to go near and a lot of trees as well as plants. Also, this place is home to the Manzshir Monastery which is one of the oldest Buddhist temples in the entire country.

Of course there would be the Gandantegchilen Kloster which a lot of tourists would visit during the tour. Now this is an extremely big Buddhist Monastery that is actually probably the biggest in the entire country and can contain over a thousand monks. Even today, there are many monks who would reside in this monastery in order to pray.

Now there would also be the National Museum of Mongolian History which is found in the very core of the capital city Ulaanbaatar. Now this is the place to go if one would want to learn more about the past of this country and how it got its culture. The artifacts would show the development of the country up until the present.

So basically, these are some of the interesting places that one would be visiting while on tour. As one can see, Mongolia is definitely a place like no other. It has very exotic and beautiful places that one can visit.
