National Museum of Mongolian History
The Museum of National History has a number of fascinating displays of traditional Mongolian clothing and weaponry, as well as exhibits charting the course of Genghis Khan's empire-building.
The Winter Palace of Bogd Khaan
The Bogd Khaan Museum consists of a two-storey winter house built for the Mongol ruler by Tsar Nicholas the Second of Russia, as well as a series of temples. Peaceful and serene, it is pleasant to wander round.
The Dunes of Khongoryn Els
The range of dunes stretches as far as the eye can see — your driver will take you to the base of the formation, from where you can take photographs, and stroll among the horses and camels in the green stream-valley.
The Eagle Canyon Excursion
Yolyn Am, 'The Vulture's Mouth', commonly called Eagle Canyon by travellers, is a striking gorge in the deep desert, remarkable for the microclimate that its formation creates.
Ulaanbaatar City Tour
The introductory city tour of Ulaanbaatar takes you through some of the principal sights of this unique city.
Terelj National Park
The imposing cliffs and gentle valleys of Terelj are a wilderness refuge within reach of Ulaanbaatar. The forested slopes are home to moose and brown bear; the skies are filled with the silhouettes of hunting birds; the pure headwaters of the Tuul River abound with whitefish and the Taimen, Mongolia's indigenous salmon.
The Flaming Cliffs Excursion
At Bayanzag, it is the landscape which is most impressive — an intense evocation of Mongolia's great emptiness. Conditions and inclination permitting, you can visit Bayanzag in Mongolian fashion — on the back of a camel.
Nomadic Family Visit
Pay a visit to a family of nomads, people whose way of life has changed remarkably little over the past centuries. These people follow the traditions and practices that have been in place since before the time of Genghis Khan.
