Highlights and Information
|
|
Mongolia has many highlights besides the steppe. In the cultural landscape area known as the Orkhon Valley, many ruins and historic sites remain, and the most famous is the Karakorum ruins. When the Mongol and Turkic nomads who have long lived in Mongolia founded their states, they chose the Orkhon River basin for their capitals. Chinggis Khaan also ordered the capital of the Mongol Empire to be established there. By his order, the city of Karakorum was built in 1235, and it is famous for having been, for a time, the center of the world. Erdene Zuu of the Karakorum ruins is one of Mongolia's World Heritage Sites. Suddenly appearing in the steppe, the ruins consist of 108 striking white stupas and outer walls surrounding the Buddhist temple, a group of monasteries with a long history in Mongolia. |
| Burd (Elsen Tasarkhai Desert) is located 280 km west of Ulaanbaatar, and is the central point of Mongolia. It is a scenic place where steppe, rocky mountains, streams, lakes and ponds lie together. Burd, with its Mongolian-style steppe rich in flower varieties, is the gateway for sightseeing. Mt. Khugnu Khan, north of Burd, has long been worshipped by the nomads, and is now protected as a "protected area" where rare animals and plants exist. The magnificent hills, as if carpeted, are a great panorama like a landscape painting. It is also famous as a production area of Mongolian horses. On the way from Ulaanbaatar to Burd, the Tuul River flows, and there are endless grand steppe, beautiful flower fields, and herds of sheep, cattle and horses, with many photo opportunities. The Burd camp site is also the base camp for Karakorum, the capital of the former Mongol Empire. |   |
