MONGOLIA · KHARKHORIN & THE ANCIENT CAPITAL
6 tours reviewed
Kharkhorin was the Mongol capital before the court moved to Beijing, and Erdene Zuu was built from its stones inside a wall of a hundred and eight stupas.

Two days from Ulaanbaatar to Kharkhorin and the Semi-Gobi, with two-hump camel rides, Erdenezuu monastery, and a ger night.

This allowed me to experience Mongolian hospitality up close and try traditional dishes, making the trip feel even more authentic. A big compliment goes to the guide: he was not only very knowledgeable…”
