Khentii, Sukhbaatar, Dornod
Eastern Mongolia is birthplace of Chinggis Khaan, who ruled the greatest empire in the world history. The Khentii Mountain range, and expansive grassland which is characterized by treeless flat steppes, gently rolling hills and wetlands are the iconic landscapes of the region.
This place is nothing less than stunning, with a diversity that ranges from rare Mongolian white-tailed gazelle in the Menen steppes, Buir lakes, Kherlen and Onon rivers. This is one of the world’s last great unharmed grassland ecosystems, and you can imagine yourself galloping along it on horseback.
Regardless of whether or not you have seen steppe landscape before, you will be blown away by this place where sky and earth blend into one piece. Scenic drive through Khan Khentii Strictly Protected area, Menen steppe, Mongol Daguur Strictly Protected Area, Ugtam Uul Natural Reserve, Ganga lake, Altan Ovoo and battlefield of Khalkhiin gol are some of the best ways to see the wonderful sites that the region has to offer.
