Mongolia Discovery with Naadam Festival. Departs July 1, 2018

a Mongolia Discovery with Naadam Festival Departs July 1, 2018

MONGOLIA DISCOVERY WITH NADAAM FESTIVAL A trip through the Land of the Sapphire Blue Sky is something very unique. If you re looking for a five star type, cushy, comfortable holiday, then Mongolia is probably not for you. If you want to get off the beaten track then Mongolia is unmatched in its wild beauty and rawness. In three weeks you will get a wonderful taste of what this country has to offer. What you will experience, smell, hear, taste and see, will engage all of your senses. Mongolia will be indelibly imprinted on your memory. Mongolia is one of the world s least-developed, least-populated countries in the world. If you want to see a night sky so clear that you ll be reminded that the galaxy is infinite, to camp on the edge of a vast steppe covered in chive flowers as far as the eye can see, or to look across a giant basin, rimmed with dark towering mountains, Mongolia is that place. With a population of only 3 million, roughly half of the country s population is packed into one city, the capital Ulaanbaatar. Outside of that, Mongolia s largest cities only number in the tens of thousands, with a significant portion of those still living the traditional lifestyle as nomadic sheepherders. Mongolia is a land of extremes. On the road it can take hours of driving before you pass a tiny ger community, a Mongolian on horseback or even another vehicle. Yet in between you are blessed with the stunning views of a country so untouched that you know you ve reached its true heart. From the stark Gobi in the south, to the incredible rock formations and magnificence of Khogoryn Els (Mongolia s largest sand dunes) to the crystal blue lakes and rushing clear rivers of the West, it is a land serene, with a culture that is warm and welcoming.

Today you ll take an early morning visit to one of the best preserved areas, the Mutianyu section (approximately 2 hours), featuring guard towers dating back to the Ming dynasty. An incredible piece of engineering, the wall stretches 6,000 km westwards from the mountain ridges north of Beijing. It was originally constructed to protect Chinese empires from the 'barbarians' of the north and even though it failed in this purpose, it is still without a doubt one of the country's most remarkable achievements, and an iconic destination. It's a 30-minute climb up some steep steps to the wall itself, but it s well worth the effort. There s also the option of taking a chair lift or cable car to the top and back if you re after a more leisurely experience. You ll have a few hours to explore before heading back to the city for the afternoon and a visit to the Summer Palace. This is one of the best imperial gardens in China, a summer retreat for the Qing Dynasty, and features stunning artwork of imperial life on The Long Corridor.

At that time the inhabitants of city were mostly merchants and craftsmen who came to Karakorum from all over the world. As Kublai khan moved the capital of the Mongolian Empire to China, establishing the Yuan Dynasty, it began losing its importance. In 1379 much of the city was badly damaged during an attack by the army of the Ming Dynasty. Erdene Zuu Monastery was built by Avtai Sain Khan on the ruin of the Mongolian capital Karakorum in 1586. It was the first great Buddhist Monastery of Mongolia. It is part of the World Heritage Site entitled Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape.
