Arrival in Ulan Bator, capital of Mongolia

After your arrival in Ulaanbaatar, you will be picked up by our guide and transferred to your hotel. We will introduce the participants to each other and discuss the program of the days ahead. In the afternoon, we will explore the city and visit Gandan Monastery as well as the Museum of National History and participate in cultural activity in the evening.

Ulaanbaator was founded in 1639 and is now Mongolia's largest city, its capital and the cultural, industrial and financial heart with a population of just over 1 million. It is an independent municipality and therefore not part of any province, situated in the north central part of the country at an elevation of about 1'310 m in a valley on the Tuul River.
