Mongolia can be visited via the third primary route
called the Trans-Mongolian Railway. Visiting Mongolia is very popular among
travellers who decide to embark on the Trans-Siberian Railway voyage because of
its untouched nature, vast steppes, stunning deserts, livestock freely walking
around, nomadic culture and hospitable people. A few must-visit spots in
Mongolia include: the empty steppe of the Gobi Desert, the Gandan Monastery,
Mongolia’s most important Buddhist monastery, the monument to Genghis Khan at
the Sukhbaatar Square, and the Gorkhi-Terelj National Park. Gorkhi-Terelj National
Park offers you the beautiful scenery of wild and unspoiled Mongolia, and is
where you can go inside the traditional Ger and meet a nomadic family, or even
try to ride a horse, which is a routine part of Mongolian life.
