To celebrate the New Year 2025 in Mongolia? Why it's worth thinking about.

Mongolia is a unique country that has preserved a rich history. Here you can get acquainted with the culture of nomads, visit Buddhist temples, taste manta rays "buzy", cheese "byaslag" and meat "khorkhog".

Although it's about minus 20 outside, this does not prevent you from enjoying the incredible landscapes of steppes and deserts under the bright sun. Visit the equestrian statue of Genghis Khan, Lake Khubsugul, the monastery of Amarbayasgalant and Erdeni-Dzu, spend the night in the ger yurt. Or just spend time shopping in the largest shopping malls in Ulaanbaatar.
