About this tour

Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, is a city of contrasts where the old and the new coexist side by side. Situated on a windswept plateau at an elevation of 4,430 feet (1,350 m), the city is surrounded by hills and mountains, offering visitors a breathtaking view of the surrounding landscape. With a population of around 1.5 million, Ulaanbaatar is the largest city in Mongolia and serves as its political, commercial, industrial, and cultural hub.

 

The history of Ulaanbaatar can be traced back to the 17th century when it was founded as a nomadic Buddhist monastic center. Over the centuries, the city served as a trading center and a military outpost, eventually becoming the capital of Mongolia in 1924. Today, the city is a blend of traditional Mongolian architecture and modern high-rise buildings, reflecting its rich history and its aspirations for the future.

 

One of the most notable features of Ulaanbaatar is its mix of Soviet-era architecture and Buddhist monasteries. The city’s most famous monastery is the Gandan Tegchinlen Monastery, which dates back to the 19th century and is home to several thousand monks. The monastery is a popular tourist destination and offers visitors a glimpse into Mongolia’s rich spiritual and cultural heritage.
