Cultural landscape of Orkhon Valley

The Orkhon Valley is located on both banks of the Orkhon River in central Mongolia, about 360 km west of Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia. The valley's cultural landscape has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site as an illustration of the nomadic tradition that has been cultivated for over 2000 years.
For centuries, the Orkhon Valley has been regarded as the seat of the king of steps. Its name appears in history in the "Orhon Inscription" erected in this valley by Bilge Khaan in the 8th century. The mountains that make up the valley were sacred as the Axis of the world in Tengri worship, but Otuken was especially special. The Orkhon Valley is home to the Orkhon inscription, the ruins of Khar Balgas, the ruins of Kharkhorin, the capital of Genghis Khan, and the Erdene Zuu Monastery.
