Central Mongolia is extremely rich in historical and cultural remains of all historical periods except for its beautiful
natural scenery. During this short tour, you will discover a
lot about Mongolia such as three different zones of Gobi desert, central Mongolian mountain steppes and forested mountains with their crystal clear water rivers, fresh water lakes, flower carpeted lands and basalt covered valleys. For you every day will be interesting and surprising. The landscape changes all the time. Another highlight of the tour is you can visit as many nomad families as you wish to see uniqueness of the nomadic life and feel heartwarming hospitality of your not in advance informed nomadic hosts as this part Mongolia is more populated by nomad families than the other parts. We also included a nomad family stay to make your holiday more experiential.
Meet at the airport/at the railway station and transfer to a hotel. After being refreshed, taken on a short city sightseeing tour if the time permits. First, we will visit Gandantegchilen Monastery. The monastery is a favored place of locals as well as foreigners due to its interesting religious artifacts and peacefulness. A 26 m gilded statue of a Buddha is another thing of interest. Next, visit central squire and the National Museum of Mongolia. Have a welcome dinner in a Mongolian barbeque restaurant. Accommodation: *** hotel. (L/D)
