Cook Mongolian classics in a traditional ger near Ulaanbaatar with nettle tea, homemade noodles, dumplings, and shagai games.
“This is more than just a cooking class, it is a cultural experience that reveals the heart of Mongolian traditions. It is a must do for Ulaanbaatar. I not only had a lovely time but made 2 new friends.”
Catch a 90-minute Mongolian folk show in Ulaanbaatar with throat singing, traditional instruments, dance, and contortion, plus optional hotel pickup.
“The theater may be small, but the show is absolutely vibrant and captivating! Each performance segment is kept short, giving the audience a taste of different forms of Mongolian traditional art before smoothly moving on to the next. This pacing keeps the entire program lively and engaging without ever feeling drawn out. Do note that the theater is on the second floor and there’s no elevator. Guests in wheelchairs may need to consider whether they’re comfortable with the staff carrying them upstairs. In our case, my mother was warmly assisted by the troupe’s team, who couldn’t have been more kind and enthusiastic—an unforgettable part of the experience in itself!Read more”
