When you think of the Gobi Desert, people who don't know it
tend to think of a desert-like the Sahara Desert, which has no grass, but there
are various types of actual Mongolian Gobi. "South Gobi" is a
Mongolian word meaning land with sparse short grass, which is an image of a
desert with no desolate vegetation, but in reality, it is only 25% of the land
area. Camel grazing is most common here. In addition, many fossils of dinosaurs
have been excavated in this area, which will arouse the romance of ancient
times. The Moltsog dunes, about 50km north of the South Gobi airfield, offer a
panoramic view of the Gobi Desert image that tourists envision.
Bayanzag Flaming cliffs
It is a place known all over the world for finding dinosaur eggs and fossils.
For the first time, this area became known around the world by American
Andres in the 1920s. Andres unearthed some dinosaur fossils and eggs from
here, which are currently on display at the largest museum in the United
States. It is also famous for the many rare things found in this area that
prove that humans have lived there for millions of years. If you look carefully,
you may find fossil fragments of dinosaurs.
Yoliin am / Eagle Valley
There is a beautiful place called Yoliin am on Mt.Gurvan Saikhan. Yoliin
Am means "Eagle Valley" in Mongolian. Certainly, an eagle is
flying over the valley, and you can understand this place's name. The altitude
of the valley is as high as 2200m, and snow remains around here even in
early summer. As expected, the valley is melted in midsummer but without
snow, and it feels cool and comfortable. On a hot summer day, walking through
the ice in the valley is interesting. There are also wild sheep and goats,
wolves, and gobi bears .
The Gobi Desert in southern Mongolia. Most of the desert is covered with pebbles and shrubs, but if you drive close to 200km from the South Gobi, you will suddenly see a large sand dune. .. The height of this sand dune, which continues like a mountain and looks up forever, is about 50 meters or more. It is a rare terrain with sandy meadows, grass and short trees, and small rivers. We often see camels trekking with tourists on board. This course is to enjoy the moving scenery in this large sand dune, which is said to be no1 in Mongolia. Of course, the ger where you can see the large sand dunes of the accommodation. Staying in the wilderness, with no man-made objects as far as the eye can see, makes you forget about your daily life. You can feel the nature of Mongolia by taking a leisurely stroll through the dunes and gazing at the starry sky at night.
