Rugged Mongolia is an adventure destination where travellers can see the traditions the past still practised today by hardy nomads dwelling on the country’s vast steppes and deserts.


Mongolia’s nomadic culture is famous – visitors can sleep in a herder’s ger (traditional felt yurt), help round up the sheep, ride horses and simply ‘get back to nature’.

The legacy of Chinggis Khaan and resurgent nationalist pride sharpens the experience. A culture of tremendous hospitality makes locals more accessible. In a world beset by locks and gates, it’s refreshing to meet people willing to open their doors to strangers.


To See
  • Mongolia is a big country that has been beyond the reach of travelers and the normal trappings of civilization until very recently.
  • Even today it can be difficult to travel between the few places that ‘exist’.
  • There is not a whole lot of noteworthy architecture in the country.
  • Except for the short-lived capital of the Mongol Empire at Karakorum, the descendants of Genghis Khan did not leave much evidence of their power inside their native homeland.
  • Genghis Khan, who leveled cities from the Yellow Sea to the Caspian, was said to have only built one permanent building during his life, a warehouse to store his stupendous amount of loot.
