World Heritage Karakorum Ruins
![]() ![]() ![]() |
In Central Mongolia, there are many archaeological sites and historic sites in the cultural landscape area called Orkhon Valley, and the most famous one is the Karakorum. When the nomads of Mongolian and Turkish descent who lived in Mongolia for a long time were founded, the city was selected as the Orkhon River basin. Genghis Khan has also ordered the establishment of the Mongolian capital city there. The city of Karakorum was built in 1235 under the order of Genghis Khan and is famous for its temporary center of the world. One of the world heritage sites of Mongolia is the Erdene Zuu temple of the Karakorum ruins. These ruins, which suddenly appear in the prairie, have a total of 108 high-impact white pagodas and outer walls that surround the Buddhist temple, making it a temple complex with a long history in Mongolia. A short walk from the archeological site is a joint project of the Mongolian Cabinet and JICA, and the "Karakorum History Museum" has been constructed by Japan's ODA. |

Burd (Elsen tasarkhai Desert), located 280 km west of the city of Ulaanbaatar, is the center of Mongolia. It is a wonderful place with a view of grasslands, rocky mountains, streams, lakes, and ponds. With its rich Mongolian grasslands and a wide variety of flowers, is the gateway to tourism. Nomads have long worshiped Mt. Khugnu Khan, which is located in the northern part of Burd, but now it is protected as a "protected area" and there are rare flora and fauna. The magnificent hills, which look like carpets, are a panoramic view of landscape paintings. It is also famous as a production area for Mongolian horses. On the way from Ulaanbaatar to Burd, there are plenty of photo opportunities such as the prairie overlooking the Tour River, beautiful flower fields/sheep, cows, and horse herds. The Burd campsite is also a base campsite for the Karakorum, the capital of the former Mongol Empire. |

The Bayan Gobi Tourist Camp is located in the Elsen tasarkhai Desert, Burd, less than 280 km southwest of Ulaanbaatar and less than 4 hours drive. Located 80km from the ancient capital of Mongolia, Kharkhorin Heritage, it is the best location where you can enjoy the convenience of transportation and the contrast between grasslands and deserts, which is about an hour's drive away. There are no artifacts around the tourist camp. For safety reasons, accommodations and toilets are always lit, but if you lie down in the dunes near the camp, you can enjoy the night sky as if the stars were falling. There are many horses in the camp. All horses are guided by nomads who are gentle and familiar with horses, so even beginners can enjoy the horse riding experience with peace of mind. |
